Zimmerman credibility could be issue in legal case

[Quixote1818]

29. Yes it does because the bond is because of the killing. They passed the starting line

the instance he got in front of the judge the very first time. It's all interconnected now even if it seems abstract. As the saying goes, anything you say that can be used against you WILL be used against you. If you say anything at all that will bolster their case against you even if it's lying about the bond, they are going to use it to show you lied in court. Even if you just misspoke or honestly didn't remember something right. If they CAN use your statement - if it's going to help their case - they WILL use it.

Also, the police are free to lie to you during an interrogation, and if you tell them something because you thought their lies were the truth - and your statements incriminate you - they will use it because they legally can.

In this case his actions speak to his honesty so they will use it to show he can't be trusted. There is no way the judge is going to knock them down for bringing it up. They will probably bring it up in the opening and closing statements.
