Jul 2013

I could not sleep last night, thinking about this.

I watched some of the post verdict interview with the prosecution team. I noticed that the lead FL State Attorney, Angela Corey (who was not part of the prosecutorial team), seemed to be enjoying her time at the microphone - big smile on her face, flashily dressed with a huge, triple strand, costume jewelry type necklace, and a deep cut ruffled neck top. No somber facial expression, no subdued voice.

There was commentary afterward that did address her jovial demeanor, and pointed out that she was the prosecutor was on the case of a black woman who fired a warning shot at her abusive husband, INTO THE CEILING, and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. I just found this link at a site called Twitchy - no knowledge about this site:

http://twitchy.com/2013/07/13/viewers-wonder-why-is-florida-state-attorney-angela-corey-smiling-so-big/

I also thought it very odd that the prosecution would agree to impanel a jury with NO black members.

I could not bear to watch interviews with the defense team.
