The arrogance of the Zimmerman posters is astounding.
There is a thing such as over confidence,
Let me appeal to your reason and common sense.
There is a false belief here that a criminal trial is about the prosecution calling their witnesses and everyone of their witnesses is called because they believe George Zimmerman is guilty of the charge and they are there in support of the prosecution.
As indicated by most all of the prosecution's witnesses that assumption is false.
For example: the DNA forensic examiner.
This witness ONLY testifies as to what he finds on things. Nothing more, nothing less. He is NOT on the side of anyone as his work is SCIENCE, not guilt or innocence. So you are on the jury in this trial. You KNOW that this is NOT a who done it murder case like the OJ case where DNA ALSO was introduced as evidence, one of the first big trials where it was, so what is your take on what the jury will give weight to DNA evidence where IT IS NOT IN QUESTION who killed who? Accordingly, the interest level and relevance associated with it is lowered by the fact that the killer is not unknown and DNA evidence is going to prove who did it is not a factor. Knowing that the defense correctly probes into the DNA of the fingernails of Martin. Why would they do that when THEY ALREADY KNOW that Zimmerman's DNA IS NOT THERE? The lay person, and respectfully as I mean in no way to demean you in any way, would believe that lack of DNA under the fingernail would make the defense counsel to avoid any questioning on that as that potentially hurts his client.
That is the furthest thing from the truth and in fact the defense runs with that. Here's how:
The fact that there was no DNA of Zimmerman under Martin's fingernails will be argued that is because possibly Martin had a closed fist and the only contact he had with Zimmerman was with a closed fist. Remember, that ALSO can be argued as circumstantial evidence. Trayvon Martin had no DNA under his fingernails is proof that his fists were closed when he attacked Zimmerman. I am not claiming that is what happened but keep in mind ALL OF THE PROSECUTION'S claims are of the same nature. All circumstantial and the lack of DNA from Zimmerman on Martin's fingernails is CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE also.
So guess who always wins out in a draw like that? The defense as that is the jury charge from the Judge.
Additionally, How long was that guy up? How far did the defense take him away from the what ifs of the prosecution's claims to the what ifs of the defense's claims and how does a jury differentiate between the what ifs of those 2 when they have a forensic DNA examiner that is as personable as a sheet rock wall?
Nothing about over confidence involved in this. It is what it is.
And this is not and has never been a murder case evidenced by all of the witnesses called so far. Again, nothing about being "overconfident" as THIS IS NOT A GAME.
Nothing the prosecution has offered so far has any evidence of murder. Nothing.
I would not be surprised if the Judge gave a directed verdict of acquittal when the defense asks for one.
