ORIGINAL: DomKen I mean the girlfriend who came across as sympathetic to the jury and made O'Mara look mean. Keep in mind this is not a bench trial but one in front of a jury. Defense lawyers who beat up witnesses the way O'Mara did have to find a way to appear to not be an SoB or the jury will ignore pretty much anything he has to say. So far O'Mara's attempt with the knock joke seems to be less than successful. Also keep in mind the last witnesses the jury will hear are the prosecution's rebuttal witnesses and the last argument they will hear is the prosecutor and if he is any good at all his closing will be "Zimmerman lied about this, Zimmerman lied about that and Zimmerman lied about this other thing" and that will certainly be a major component in deliberations. Intriguing. What you saw as a sympathetic witness, the rest of the country saw as at best, an idiot and at worst, an outright liar. No, That is what most white people who have no contact with blacks who speak in dialect thought. The rest of us saw a pretty average, if not too bright, girl. BS, my next door neighbor is a black man, he hold BBQ's often with his black friends and I attend often... I can state flatly that the type of speech she discribed is NOT AVERAGE. my neighbor would just as soon bite his tongue off as speak like that. the things she said and said he said is the verbage of common gutter trash regardless of race! PS, no I do not live in the SUBURBS, I live deep in the inner city where you'd expect more of such behaior to exist! also I am a plumber and I deal with black people almost every single day, and in some pretty rough areas too! St. Louis must be an odd city. here I hear black dialect all the time. I heard it growing up in Atlanta and heard it in D.C. when I lived there. I am in Houston and half the population here is black, where I am from black people are very uncommon so this is something I am not used to at all.. many black people here I can not understand.. yes, its their accent/dialect.. I probably look like the idiot to them cuz they have to repeat what they are saying until i can figure out what they said.. .. I could understand the girl witness dialect but it was hard at times, and considering that she spoke 3 languages and I think english is her weakest language, there were times when I dont think she was fully understanding the questions and the lawyers werent fully understanding her answers.. she does not write or read english, that does not make her stupid, it just means if she wants a good job she should do her best to learn (she may write/read spanish?).. I found the selfie pic of the defense lawyer (West) with his oh so brilliant kids eating ice cream and remarking on nailingstupid or whatever to be amazingly stupid in itself.. now when i see that lawyer on tv questioning someone, that is exactly what comes to my mind.. All I can say is Zimmy has the perfect lawyer to represent him..
