the defense and the prosecution i had their closing arguments today in the
joys of revenge trial and i think the prosecution actually had has some very
very strong statement and actually one of the jewel graphic uh... from their
prosecutor prosecutor
he says at a teenager is dead
his dad not just because the man made those assumptions
but because he acted on those assumptions and what's really because is
a sanctions were rom train on benjamin martin
no longer walks on this car
never yell socialism events during the closing arguments that i thought were
very very powerful
let's not take a look at the picture
comparing what george zimmerman had
and which rave on martin had as you see there is the guy in and that's which
originally used to shoot and kill trevan martin
it says twenty eight-year-old neighborhood watchmen welcome
self-appointed neighborhood watchmen uh... criminal-justice major animate
rang
forty pound invented just firing marshall
a police ride alongs
per
and applicant's concealed firearm permit holder armed practice shooter long-term
residents uh... and also when you look at uh... can of i see that you don't
mind had
he was just three weeks have seventeen years old
from out of town and he ran
so to me that most belum are that graphic is
clearly zimmerman was on pursuing m trade on was the one who was running
on that alone
you know began to pursue work is the one who shot the guy he was chasing and kill
them
for the guy who was the person were to make the self-defense argument
well that's a very hard to prove a member of your our use of the fence
the burners
spruce which is the u_p_s_ yet so
on that alone i i i think
that a lot of the experts here they're on t_v_ roanoke is not a million percent
now i think you old but there are they not guilty of alright they did not
emphasizing it out
but the bird approve is on
to towards their homes island approve self defense yes and he didn't take the
stand
and
unicorn beyond a shadow would annuity
he proved work was he able to convince a jury to put it this way
that dot only possible story was that he just this self defense
i don't think that's remotely through now on the other hand
you know the disabled beyond a reasonable doubt that he had the intent
utils armen but it's also very hard and i get my people say that's very hard so
let's stop right there because they're two possibilities in terms of the
conviction
on could be convicted second-degree murder
and with that conviction there has to be proof that there was bill well hatred
spite
and i think that it's difficult to prove that in this case and he did he attend
tissue trade on martin from the get go
it's hard to prove that of the jurors can also consider bass slaughter
which has a maximum sentence of thirty years in prison and in that case you do
not have to prove ill intent
uh... cell and i think that it's anything it's more likely that he would
be convicted of manslaughter but again i think it
of course we don't know what the jury's going to buy it and i believe the jury
system and i actually think we should give the jury more evidence and
and trust them before it rested jury system should trust him completely and
in the same evidence of the the judge has but anyway
sophie you know they were there throughout the trial is so i read that
we want
so whatever they decide is what they decide and that that's our justice
system works okay
to look at it from outside
and seeing that it is that i've seen i would be if i was on the jury
i say manslaughter
i think it's fairly clearly manslaughter in nestling tentative you kill the kid
buddy kill them but it was because of what he did his actions
he pursue them
there was a fight
he one of shooting in the villa medical examiner said that december's injuries
were very insane everything sources like absolutely need you're not necessarily
bc the one i started it yes the kid is dead manslaughter that's what
manslaughter is all about yeah and i do worry about what type of standard at the
school sat
uh... george zimmerman gets off with absolutely no conviction and the reason
i say that is because you have to keep in mind he's the one who started all of
this
he saw someone walking through the neighborhood
he thought the can was suspicious so he decided to
harass and follow him after the nine one one operator dispatcher told to do not
call this guy
and continue to do some and it led to an altercation he's the one
who prabhat trademark martin
so that means that in the future
can someone just provoke anyone attacked fight with that and even if there are no
im he can shoot and kill them if they decide to retaliate or fight back
aminotransferase had yet that's the president of things that
so if you ever want to read about it
make sure they're not our mx go up and pick a fight if they fight back at all
interest levied a pontoon great people and then you should have any murder you
know it
and so that said deters dangers president said
how will set up but again
we were there every minute of the trial the jury was
