Which is why defense attorneys rarely put defendants on the stand if they can help it.

His new lawyer is bringing his A game though, unlike the half-retard who was representing him previously.

On that tack, I don't think we've established that those idiots actually represented him, or just insinuated themselves into a league they were ill-prepared for.

Uh oh, you "profiling is illegal" apologists better not read this article. You rioters better not read this article.

This case is going to be just as interesting as OJ and Casey Anthony. If everything in this article is true and can be produced at court he's free.

Oh and to those asking why he had a gun:

SANFORD, Florida (Reuters) - A pit bull named Big Boi began menacing George and Shellie Zimmerman in the fall of 2009.

The first time the dog ran free and cornered Shellie in their gated community in Sanford, Florida, George called the owner to complain. The second time, Big Boi frightened his mother-in-law's dog. Zimmerman called Seminole County Animal Services and bought pepper spray. The third time he saw the dog on the loose, he called again. An officer came to the house, county records show.

"Don't use pepper spray," he told the Zimmermans, according to a friend. "It'll take two or three seconds to take effect, but a quarter second for the dog to jump you," he said.

"Get a gun."

Yep, hearsay, could be a lie, but if it is true very very very interesting. He had pepper spray FIRST.

Oh ****! He has a black friend. He can use the W. Rabbit defense.

I missed that it was a police officer suggesting he get a gun the first time I read that article on a different site - thanks for pointing it out. I hope they televise the trial.

Well, he's a step up because, even if he was "passing," he is still a minority. W. Rabbit is one by proxy.

Pretty unanimous in my little coffeklatch that the only chance the prosecutors have is conjuring the Ghost of Burning Cities Yet To Come before the jury. Then again we were buying supplies for a "Happy Vice Presidency, Mrs Palin" party (which later became a "Biden 2012-the Mayans Tried to Warn Us!" party) so there that shows what we know.

Also applies to small towns that don't have their own forensic unit in the local police department. Usually they don't spend much time or money on the investigations if there are no whitnesses and most go unsolved unless they are cut and dry.

On Monday, the Sanford, Fla., city commission refused to accept the resignation of Police Chief Bill Lee, who stepped down temporarily in March after an initial decision by prosecutors not to file charges led to nationwide protests. Commissioners said they would not bow to outside pressure.
Commissioners want to wait for the results of a federal investigation to decide if they will accept the resignation of Lee, who remains on paid leave.

EDIT: Oh Vince. Was anyone ever so unqualified for a job?
