“To See, To Speak”

We are finally here, Day One of the George Zimmerman trial.  The defense team, Mark O’Mara and Don West along with Asst. State Prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda have the enormous task of finding 6 unbiased, unaware swamp dwelling people who live in Seminole county Florida who have not heard of this case or more realistically have not formed an opinion of this case.  The State and the defense team will then decide, if they have formed an opinion, do they still have the ability to be fair?

On February 26, 2012, the defendant George Zimmerman called non-emergency 911 to report a suspicious person.  Listen to non-emergercy call below.

Initally Sanford Police Department did not arrest George Zimmerman.  The case was later handed over to Florida State Attorney Angela Corey who subsequentally indicted Zimmerman charging him with 2nd degree murder.

In America, most of our trials begin with jury selection or vior dire.

voir dire

(vwahr [with a near-silent "r"] deer) n. from French “to see to speak,” the questioning of prospective jurors by a judge and attorneys in court. Voir dire is used to determine if any juror is biased and/or cannot deal with the issues fairly, or if there is cause not to allow a juror to serve (knowledge of the facts; acquaintanceship with parties, witnesses or attorneys; occupation which might lead to bias; prejudice against the death penalty; or previous experiences such as having been sued in a similar case). Actually one of the unspoken purposes of the voir dire is for the attorneys to get a feel for the personalities and likely views of the people on the jury panel. In some courts the judge asks most of the questions, while in others the lawyers are given substantial latitude and time to ask questions. Some jurors may be dismissed for cause by the judge, and the attorneys may excuse others in “peremptory” challenges without stating any reason. 2) questions asked to determine the competence of an alleged expert witness. 3) any hearing outside the presence of the jury held during trial.

After filling out a questionnaire, the 500 selected potential jurors have been broken up into 3 groups.  Today the State and defense will question the first group, tomorrow the second group and Wednesday the third group.  The questionnaire has not been made public.

Before today there was still a question regarding audio experts. I’m relieved to learn that on Saturday Judge Debra Nelson, that the expert opinions regarding the “death sheik” will be admissible.  I’m not surprised to add, defense attorney Mark O’Mara once again asked for a continuance which was denied and O’Mara says he has a witness he’d like to had to the list.

Let justice prevail!

“Denied, Denied, Denied” were the harmonious words heard over and over again”

After filing mutiple motions in a last ditch effort to build a reasonable defense for George Zimmerman, defense attorneys Mark O’Mara and Don West walked gloomily out of the courtroom today. Without much help from Judge Nelson, their day was a wash.

Circuit Judge Debra Nelson ruled that defense attorneys will not be able to mention Trayvon Martin’s school suspension, alleged participation in fights or his past use of marijuana.

Trayvon Martin

As any first-year law student would know, Mark O’Mara’s strategy to post online photos and text messages from Trayvon’s cellphone was not only a way to victimize Zimmerman’s victim again but a blatant sleazy attempt to tarnish the jury pool. As expected, O’Mara’s request to have such garbage entered into evidence was quickly denied.

In other rulings, the judge refused to allow jurors to travel to the crime scene predicting that the excursion would be “a logistical nightmare” and she also refused the defense request to have jurors sequestered.  As for the defense’s request to delay the start of the trial, that was denied too. As Judge Debra Nelson previously ruled, the trial will begin June 10, 2013.

As the 2 hour hearing continued, the prosecution won another victory. Judge Nelson granted their request to withhold information as to why it took so long for Zimmerman to be charged with second-degree murder. She ruled that no dialogue or information will be allow from officers of Sanford Police Dept. or State attorneys as to why they originally decided not to arrest George Zimmerman.
GZ hearing 5 28
However, she granted the defense team’s request to hold a hearing as to whether the prosecution failed to turn over evidence.  A former attorney in the State’s office has charged the prosecution with withholding Trayvon’s cellphone photographs and text messages.  From my understanding this issue will be handled sometime after the trial.

Judge Nelson announced she will hold a Frye hearing on June 6th to hear arguments about whether to admit testimony from state audio expert, Alan Reich.  In this report sent to prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda, Mr. Reich says the audio of a 911 call has the voice of Trayvon Martin in a screaming trembling voice, “I’m begging you.”

After the Hearing

Benjamin Crump, an attorney for Trayvon’s family, said his family was pleased with the judge’s rulings. “Trayvon Martin is not on trial,” Mr. Crump said.

After the hearing, Robert Zimmerman, George’s brother, called on the state to drop the second-degree murder charges.  He added “In this country. You don’t charge someone with any crime solely to assuage the concerns of misinformed masses,” he said, according to CNN.

After being ill for so long and away from the Trayvon Martin murder case,  it was good to return just in time to watch the George Zimmerman April 30th hearing.  For the most part,  I think now, “I’m all caught up!”

Wow! Thank you Trent!  He’s my hero, without Trent, owner of TheStateoftheinternet.com I would be lost.  After following murder trials for most of my life, I can honestly say — “I’ve never seen anything like this one”.   A prosecutor questions the defense attorney on the stand!  What can I say?

For those who missed it, I’ll lead you to YouTube.

Here are the first few videos of the 13 Trent posted.  Be ready to grit your teeth.  Mark O’Mara and Don West’s pitiful desperation is so thick you can cut it with a knife.  The fact is, “George Zimmerman has NO defense.”

Mark O'Mara 3-22

After months of playing Public Relations Guy and constantly pandering to the media, George Zimmerman’s attorney Mark O’Mara has finally decided to get to the work he was hired to do.

He began last Wednesday, March 13th deposing the ever-elusive Witness 8 aka DeeDee.  “DeeDee” is code name for Trayvon Martin’s friend whom he happened to be on the phone with on the night he was shot down by George Zimmerman.

Unbeknownst to the shooter, Trayvon had been on his cell phone with DeeDee during most of the evening of February 26th.

It’s unknown to the public how or why Sanford investigators and asst. prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda overlooked these important phone calls taking place during this crucial time frame, nonetheless T-Mobile phone records show DeeDee was in contact by cell phone with Trayvon Martin on 4 occasions beginning at  6:54pm.

Call record:

Incoming — I minute — 6:54pm

Incoming — 18 minutes — 6:54pm

Incoming — 1 minute — 7:04pm

Incoming — 4 minutes — 7:12pm

 *It’s important to note that on the night of February 26th it was raining heavily.  It’s probable that a phone call could have been dropped due to the weather.       

Records show George Zimmerman called non-emergency 911 at 7:09PM — EST.   According to transcripts, the call lasted 4:07 minutes which indicates the call ended at approximately 7:13PM — EST.

Obviously it’s this information that makes Witness 8 vital to the case. I’m still amazed that DeeDee’s phone calls were overlooked by law enforcement and prosecutors.  Had it not been for Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin’s personal attorney Benjamin Crump, its likely Witness 8 would have been lost in the paper work.

It was attorney Benjamin Crump who initially spoke with Witness 8 who related her version (via telephone) of what happened on night Trayvon Martin was killed.

Just by the fact that George Zimmerman walked out of Sanford Police Department a free man on the night of the shooting and then overlooking “DeeDee” as a key witness is not acceptable in any murder investigation.  In my point of view, it’s these types of faux pa’s and mistakes that have caused so much public distrust in this case.

    ~~~

So after the much awaited “DeeDee Deposition”, the next day March 14th, O’Mara began at 9am, to depose Brandi Green, Tracy Martin’s girlfriend whose home Trayvon was en route when he was approached by George Zimmerman.  It was her 8-year old son who was patiently waiting at home for Trayvon’s return with his bag of Skittles candy and his Arizona Watermelon Iced Tea.

Next on O’Mara’s agenda was the 3PM deposition of Mark Osterman.  Mark Osterman is said to be George Zimmerman’s best friend and confidante.  It was Mark Osterman who taught Zimmerman how to shoot a gun and it was Mark Osterman’s father who wrote a book about a cop turned vigilante. Ironically, George Zimmerman being of weak mind was probably more impressed with the book than most.  Considering Zimmerman acted out February 26th, it seems “vigilantism” is of great interest to him.  Last but not least, scheduled for 4PM was Witness 25 — civilian.

More work for Mark O’Mara as he begins Friday, March 15th with deposing Sybrina Fulton, Trayvon’s mother.  Later that day he deposed her son Jahvaris Martin.  Finally O’Mara’s day was complete.

It’s good to see Mark O’Mara is taking this case a little more seriously.  Up until now, he seemed to be depending on the “Stand Your Ground” hearing to put this case to an end but I think Judge Debra Nelson has given him and co-counsel, Attorney Donald West a “reality check.”

The trial will begin on June 10, 2013

Trayvon Martin phone records February 26, 2012


http://media.nbcbayarea.com/documents/call+log.pdf

March 5, 2013, in the courtroom of Judge Debra Nelson, Zimmerman’s  hearing is scheduled for 8:30am CST.   According to GZLegal.com, George Zimmerman is not expected to attend.   Attorneys Mark O’Mara and Don West are prepared to argue the following Motions.

  • Defendant’s Motion for Specific Discovery from Florida Department of Law Enforcement
  • Defendant’s Motion for Specific Discovery.  (3 videos)
  • Defendant’s Motion for Supoena Duces Tecum to State Witness, Civilian Witness 8

Entry of the Following Orders:

  • Order Granting Issuance of Supoena Duces Tecum  (audio recordings0
  • Order Granting Issuance of Supoena Duces Tecum  (Trayvon Martin’s Twitter and Facebook)
  • Order Granting Issuance of Supoena Duces Tecum  (Civilian Witness 8′s Twitter and Facebook)

Zim - handsBut I wonder…
Will today’s hearing determine if George Zimmerman’s “Stand Your Ground” hearing actually will happen April 22nd?
At the “Stand Your Ground” hearing, Zimmerman’s attorneys will have to convince the judge of three things:

•Zimmerman was not engaged in an unlawful activity.
•Zimmerman was being attacked in a place he had a right to be.
•Zimmerman had the reasonable belief that his life and his safety were in danger as a result of an overt act or perceived threat committed by Martin.

As we all know, if George Zimmerman’s attorneys are successful at the “Stand Yout Ground” hearing, George Zimmerman goes home a free man.

~~~~~~

If not, he’ll have to convince 6 jurors that the shooting was in self-defense

He’ll have to explain to all 6 jurors, why he chose to follow Trayvon Martin.
He’ll have to explain why he called non-emergency 911.
He’ll have to explain each and every action he took to “keep an eye” Trayvon.
He’ll have to explain his reason for leaving the safety of his vehicle, on a dark and rainy night to pursue what he perceived “a suspicious man”.
He’ll have to give all 6 jurors a reason for not following the implied instruction given by the NEN dispatcher to NOT follow this young man.
He’ll have to explain exactly what happened after he ended the NEN call.
He’ll have to explain HOW – did he and the victim, finally meet face to face.
He’ll have to explain WHY, since he was a trained Neighborhood Watch Captain that he didn’t know proper protocol as to how to handle suspicious persons.
He’ll have to explain HOW he could be so dumb NOT to realize that HE George Zimmerman, “Neighborhood Watch Captain” had become THE SUSPICIOUS PERSON.

As a matter of fact, the person that Trayvon Martin was trying to figure out wasn’t just some creep, “just standing there looking at all of the houses.”

The creep Trayvon Martin was looking at was a 28-year old male, in a blue truck, driving very slowly down the street in the rain with his headlights off, watching his every move.

The person Trayvon Martin was watching suddenly appeared on foot, following and getting closer to him without saying a word.

He’ll have to explain the reason WHY, as a common courtesy, he didn’t say to this young man, “Hi there..Can I talk to you..I’m the Neighborhood Watch Captain”

Yes George, please EXPLAIN.

GZ Big Boy 2

As we all know, GEORGE ZIMMERMAN is a nefarious, calculating individual.   Raised by his father Robert Zimmerman Sr., a retired Virginia Supreme Court Magistrate judge and his mother, a court clerk, George would naturally glean some legal knowledge, however this knowledge would be just enough to hang himself which it actually did on the night of February 26, 2012 when he stalked, harassed and shot to death a young man named Trayvon Martin. Martin was only 21 days into his 17th year of life.

After months of avoiding arrest, months of protesting and national discontent, State Attorney Angela Corey finally announced George Zimmerman was under arrest.  At 9:12 EDT on April 11, 2012 GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was in the custody of John E. Polk Correctional Facility in Sanford, Florida.

Since then there’s been lots of hoopla and national debate as to how and why GEORGE ZIMMERMAN would get out of his vehicle, stalk and pursue a young man walking home from a local 7-11 convenience store wearing a phone ear piece and carrying only a bag of Skittles and a can of Arizona Tea.

In my research of Mr. Zimmerman, I found that he’s an arrogant wanna-be-cop whose violence and buffoonery has caused much annoyance to many people.

“Usually he was just a cool guy. He liked to drink and hang with the women like the rest of us,” he said. “But it was like Jekyll and Hyde. When the dude snapped, he snapped.” “He had a temper and he became a liability,” the man said. “One time this woman was acting a little out of control. She was drunk. George lost his cool and totally overreacted,” he said. “It was weird, because he was such a cool guy, but he got all nuts. He picked her up and threw her. It was pure rage. She twisted her ankle. Everyone was flipping out.”

These are the words from an ex-coworker who worked with George Zimmerman as a bouncer for illegal parties from 2001 to 2005.  After this incident Zimmerman was fired for being overly aggressive.

Violent George

2005 was the same year Zimmerman was arrested for fighting with a cop trying to arrest his friend for underage drinking and the same year he and his ex-fiancée took out protective orders against each other.

Remarkably George Zimmerman has three closed arrests 7/18/05 for resisting arrest with violence and battery on a law enforcement officer div 10……..8/9/05 for domestic violence div 44….. And again on 8/10/05 domestic violence div 46.

Not ONE news outlet had the gumption to publish this information.  However, the media happily reported the Sanford Police leak — the character defaming information about Mr. Martin, yet George Zimmerman’s background was kept secret. Disturbing, to say the least.

It makes one wonder if the Zimmerman’s had connections with Sanford Police Department or if the fact that George Zimmerman’s father being a retired Supreme Court Magistrate and his mother Gladys Zimmerman, a retired court clerk played a part in swaying the media.

Or perhaps local media was just doing their part to help save face for the Sanford Police Dept? After all they dropped the ball by not arresting George Zimmerman in the first place. 

We may never know the truth but the facts remain the same.

Unfortunately for Sanford PD and George Zimmerman, the Martin family would be heard

Trayvon Martin wasn’t the thug Sanford PD had hoped and in no sense of the word are Trayvon’s parents Slackers or uncaring, unconcerned parents.   His father Tracy Martin drove trucks for a living and in his spare time coached his son’s football team.   He’s also a high ranking official of the Free Masons.   His mother Sybrina Fulton is a 23-year veteran of the Miami-Dade County housing authority.

~~~

Since watching the February 5, 2013 hearing I find myself feeling baffled and confused. What is George Zimmerman’s defense team up to?  “No good” perhaps? During the hearing O’Mara publicly announced “The GEORGE ZIMMERMAN Fund” had dwindled to $5,000 and in the same sentence said there were not enough funds available for him to build a defense for his client.

GZ atty Donald West

GZ atty O'Mara shrugs

Are Attorney Mark O’Mara and Co-counsel Donald West looking for a way out?

Will George Zimmerman represent himself?

Mark O’Mara has handled this case since April 2012.  He has since gone through at least $200,000 of the George Zimmerman Defense Fund.  I’m figuring $200,000 because George and wife Shellie wheeled and dealed away over $130,000 on personal bills and family members before O’Mara officially had control over the fund.   

In the meantime, Mark O’Mara, George and Shellie Zimmerman were hit with a lawsuit filed by Associated Investigative Services for not paying for provided security services. O’Mara asked AIS for more time to pay but apparently AIS was not as sympathetic of his client as he hoped.  The lawsuit alleges breach of contract, among other claims, and requests a monetary judgment of $27,027.08.  According to the O’Mara, AIS was once charging Zimmerman $7,000 a week for security.  O’Mara says the Zimmerman’s are now paying $700 a week.

Big Boy George

It’s hard not to notice George Zimmerman’s obesity.  He’s said to be close to 300lbs which is nearly 100lbs more than he weighed the night he shot and killed Trayvon Martin. I highly suspect his weight gain is due to lack of  medication, particularly Adderall.  During one of GEORGE ZIMMERMAN’s many police interviews he admitted to Investigator Chris Serino that he was prescribed Adderall for ADHD, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder  which raises the question,

“Why would his doctor stop prescribing this particular medication?”

Did he stop having ADHD?

In my opinion, during the time frame of the shooting George Zimmerman was abusing Adderall to control his weight which is not unusual.  Adderall is an amphetamine and is also prescribed by doctors to control over eating and weight gain.  Amphetamines are also known to cause aggression.

Could this be George Zimmerman’s defense?

Adderall caused his aggression towards a young boy walking in the rain?

I wonder.

~~~

According to the Huffington Post, Judge Debra Nelson has reserved the final two weeks of April for the immunity hearing.  She had also requested an initial jury pool of 500 for June’s second-degree murder trial.

Stayed tuned.  I’m sure there’s more to come in “The George Zimmerman Saga”.  If I’m reading my crystal ball correctly, I see George Zimmerman behind bars for many years beginning sometime in late June or early July 2013!

Justice Served!

hammer of justice

What I learned from today’s hearing:

1.) BERNIE DELARIONDA says that ABC was present when Crump audio taped DeeDee’s interview.

2.) O’Mara complains, he doesn’t have a list of witnesses who heard screams for help. BERNIE DE LA RIONDA says look in the documents, look at witness statements.
De la Rionda basically tells O’Mara, look through the statements yourself! My question, why doesn’t the defense ask the question in deposition. It’s that easy.

3.) O’Mara motioned Judge Nelson to “Modify Conditions of Release”. He puts Sr. probation officer Adam Vinton on the stand to testify to GEORGE ZIMMERMAN’S compliance. He goes on to say that George Zimmermanis still in fear for his life, yada, yada..

4.) BERNIE DELARIONDA gently reminds the court of Zimmerman’s past transgressions such as his wife Shellie lying about their finances at the first bond hearing and withholding his valid up-to-date passport from the court which revoked his initial bond raising it from $150,000 to $1Million.

5.) BERNIE DELARIONDA argued to Judge Nelson that if GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was in such fear for his life then why did he appear on national television, why does he come through the front door of the courthouse with reporters at his heels, why does he continue to ask the public for money and presently offering his autograph for donations. Wouldn’t GEORGE ZIMMERMAN be safer if he stayed off of television?

6.) BERNIE DELARIONDA basically pointed out that GEORGE ZIMMERMAN is seeking media attention and does not agree with O’Mara’s motions because he constantly inserts inaccurate information which he knows will be read by the public. Here’s O’Mara’s latest motion.

7.) BERNIE DELARIONDA also addressed these meetings that were taking place before GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was arrested. BERNIE DELARIONDA added that he’d just received a letter, what he called Brady material from Atty. Jose Baez who is representing Investigator Serino. In this notice Baez says that investigators O’Connor, Randy Smith and Chris Serino wanted to charge GEORGE ZIMMERMAN with 2nd degree murder within 2 weeks of the investigation. See page 49 of 73 for Officer Santiago’s deposition.

8.) In the end, all of O’Mara’s pleading was for naught. Judge Debra Nelson denied his motion to modify Zimmerman’s conditions for release. Zimmerman will continue to live in Seminole County and continue to wear his GPS ankle bracelet.

And Thank God,
Judge Nelson clarified the “No Contact with the Martins” order.

FYI: George Zimmerman CaseID = 8337253

Here we have the latest picture of Gun Packing Neighborhood Watch Captain George Zimmerman.

Zim-BloodNose

You’ll notice his nose looks severely disjointed and there’s a small dab of blood straight down from the bottom of his nose which is similar to a little Hitler mustache. This recently released photograph is said to have been taken from the back of a squad car at the crime scene just minutes after the shooting. If blood is what tells the tale then one could assume he also had a busted lip.

Here’s a photograph of George Zimmerman taken by law enforcement on the night of the shooting.

Zim side view

Notice how the blood trails from the back of his head running forward toward the back of his ear. Apparently George Zimmerman was on top at some point during the struggle with the victim, 17 year old Trayvon Martin.

The shape of his nose looks normal unlike the nose in the picture which was just released. Below is a picture of the back of Zimmerman’s head taken at the same time as the one above. Incidentally, these pictures were taken no more than an hour after the incident. I know this because George arrived at the Sanford police station 35 minutes after the shooting.

Zim back of head

Lastly, here’s a frontal view photograph of George Zimmerman looking practically unscathed.

LLMPaPa’s “4 Questions”



LLMPaPa is Da Bomb!!

Isn’t it funny how GEORGE ZIMMERMAN has reversed positions with Trayvon. Everything that GEORGE ZIMMERMAN says Trayvon did, HE DID! He jumped out of the bushes.
Remember when the dispatcher asked him for his apartment number? GEORGE ZIMMERMAN says paraphrasing — “I don’t know where this kid is” as a reason for not wanting to give his address? He’s probably standing in bushes when he says that. There’s no proof that GEORGE ZIMMERMAN walked back to his truck as he claims. We hear him getting out of truck but not getting back in.

See all of LLMPaPa’s compelling Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman videos at YouTube.com

Please, PLEASE, PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION!!

Investigate George Zimmerman for Civil Rights violation in his killing of Trayvon Martin

A Neighborhood Watch Captain went on an illegal patrol and profiled an innocent child as a rogue, thug criminal, who he decided, without reason, deserved to be followed in the darkness and when he caught him he questioned and killed him. His only reason given for his erroneous beliefs was that the child was black and did not belong in the neighborhood. To defend himself with claims of “stand your ground” and “self defense” he concocted a series of demonstrable lies, claiming the child tried to take away the weapon he himself carried everywhere he went and that he was beaten to within an inch of his life, by Trayvon Martin, who had no dna or other trace evidence on his hands. Even while Zimmerman was covered with his own blood. Evidence that Martin never touched Zimmerman at all.

“It’s 1-9-5-0, oh crap, I don’t want to give it out loud”
Why not George???

TheJBMission~

I’m still annoyed by Sanford Police Department’s blasé’ attitude toward George Zimmerman. Here they had a guy who followed someone while armed and then claims the person attacked him so he shot him dead yet they don’t bother to check the guy’s drug or alcohol levels. If he had killed someone by running him down in his car, a blood test would be mandatory but while on foot, it’s not. Something’s wrong with this picture.

Lately, I’m getting bad vibes from this entire ordeal

#1

It starts off with 911 dispatchers telling witnesses that the screams they heard came from the shooter not the victim. This in my opinion is a form of witness tampering.

#2

Law enforcement officers working on the case get together to decide whether they want to have George Zimmerman arrested. Out of all of them, only one investigator, Chris Serino is willing to write a Capias report to have George Zimmerman arrested for manslaughter. The top dog cop of Sanford, Police Chief Bill Lee disagrees, says there isn’t enough evidence.

Weeks later Serino is reassigned to the patrol division supposedly “of his own volition.” Police Chief Bill Lee first takes himself off of the case on April 23 only 12 days after George Zimmerman is arrested. Sanford City Commission rejected Bill Lee’s temporary resignation “to let emotions cool”. He was fired a month later. Why the animosity towards the police chief? Are they mad at him for making the city of Sanford look like a bunch of buffoons?

These hands were not in a fight.

#3

On the night of the shooting February 26, 2012, State Attorney Norm Wolfinger drives 40 miles from his home, along with Police Chief Bill Lee, both arrived at the crime scene. The investigators take GEORGE ZIMMERMAN in for questioning and hear several inconsistent statements yet both state attorney and police chief unanimously agreed “cut him loose”. Why the high level attention to this particular shooting on a rainy miserable night? Did GEORGE ZIMMERMAN call his father, retired magistrate judge and did his father call in a favor from a friend?

#4

After learning the circumstances of their son, Trayvon Martin’s death, the victim’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin wanted answers. It takes a squad of civil rights activists to get the attention of the governor to have GEORGE ZIMMERMAN re-investigated. With Norm Wolfinger’s recent self-withdrawal, the governor of Florida assigns the case to a new prosecutor.

April 11, 2012 George Zimmerman is arrested and charged with second degree murder by Special Prosecutor Angela Corey at the behest of Gov. Rick Scott.

#5

Presently George Zimmerman has gone through 3 judges. The first one, Judge Jessica Recksiedler was asked recused herself due to a conflict of interest because her husband is partners with Mark Nejame who was hired to cover the Martin-Zimmerman case for CNN. With Judge Recksiedler off of the case, it was then handed over to Judge Kenneth Lester. George, who had fired his original lawyers, was recommended by Mark Nejame to hire his present attorney, Mark O’Mara, so here we have the “judge – defense lawyer connection.”

*Note: Thank you Xena for bringing this to my attention.
George has actually gone through 4 judges. Criminal cases in Seminole County are assigned on a rotation system. After Judge Jessica Recksiedler recused herself due to conflict of interest, the next judge up for rotation was Judge John Galluzzo. He, though, could not accept the case because he formerly practiced law with Zimmerman’s attorney, Mark O’Mara, and O’Mara is godfather to one of the judge’s children.

Something REALLY Stinks in Sanford Florida.

#6

April 20th GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was in court to have his bond set. Asst. State Attorney Bernie de la Rionda recommended bond set at a $1Million. Mark O’Mara was hoping for something much less. Judge Lester was fooled into thinking GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was indigent.

Because George’s wife Shellie lied about their finances, as well as George’s father X-Judge Robert Zimmerman attesting to this, Judge Lester graciously set his bond at $150,000.

Within a few weeks GEORGE ZIMMERMAN’S bond was revoked and he was back behind bars. Although there was a humongous amount to evidence proving the Zimmerman’s had lied under oath about their finances and holding back another passport for George, O’Mara was still able to weasel another bond out of Judge Lester but this time $1Million which was just fine with George. George through his website had accumulated over $200,000 of donations, he could afford it.

For Judge Lester’s kindness, he was asked to recuse himself because the defense attorney O’Mara wasn’t fond of the words he used to describe his lying client. George is now on judge #3, Judge Debra Nelson. Ironically, Judge Nelson presides over wife Shellie Zimmerman’s perjury trial. Something stinks about that too.

Never before in my lifetime have I heard of an accused murderer managing a website to raise money for his own defense. Nor the accused murderer’s attorney managing a website to keep supporters up-to-date regarding motions and court hearings, this is unprecedented.

Prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda tried to do something about it. He filed a motion for a gag order but as expected Judge Nelson denied it.

So apparently it’s legal for the lawyer and the accused, short of placing billboards on Interstate 1, can announce and decry anything they want potential jurors to know. Whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter.
I think there’s something that can be done. Perhaps, the people who have read the evidence and are aware of GEORGE ZIMMERMAN’s lies could counter these websites. It may not be legal for Asst. State Attorney Bernie de la Rionda but what about everyday citizens? Can I post website addresses on a billboard pointing Seminole County residents to George Zimmerman’s inconsistant statements and facts of this case that point to his guilt?

Because Something Stinks in Sanford Florida!
