How do you think the Zimmerman trial will end

[avebury]

6. I waver betwen hung jury and innocent.

I personally think that he is guilty of Murder 2 but think that the DA over reached by not going for manslaughter.

I think that the jury will not be able to let go of the fact that there are cultural and generational differences between themselves and the girl on the phone withe Martin. The DA's office has allowed to much of Zimmerman's statements to go unchallenged. Too many witnesses are parroting Zimmerman's words. The guy that wrote the book is just delivering hearsay testimony. They are letting everybody under the moon give Zimmerman's testimony which puts Zimmerman in the position of not having to get on the stand. It is Zimmerman's right to not testify but it is the DAs job to try to push Zimmerman into having to get on the stand.

The DAs should have picked a fixed number of important, undeniable points and keep hammering away on them. Those points are the ones that they should keep coming back to over and over in order to reinforce them.

The only thing that would help the prosecution is if they have some analytical and/or logical thinkers on the jury. The potential problem for the Defense with allowing all there witnesses to keep harping on Zimmerman's story (stories) is that an analytical thinker will start noting the inconsistencies, figure out the BS, and start thinking - Now wait a minute. The more I keep hearing Zimmerman's story the more I keep thinking he is full of sh*t and I don't believe him.
