    Trent, here’s the rhyme you asked about on your video from this morning. (thanks for the video postings!)

    Georgy Porgy puddin’ and pie,
    kissed the girls and made them cry
    When the boys came out to play,
    Georgy Porgy ran away

    Very impressed with Judge Nelson for listening , being attentive for so long. Her ruling was short , simple and quite understandable.

    I began watching when George said he would waive a pre-trial SYG, but basically most of today’s hearing was about financial payments and not George. That’s not good for George.
    As a laymen I’m thinking ‘these guys are arguing over how much money they should get, the hell with George”

      They expected it to go like this:

      OMARA: Mr. West will you tell the court what is wrong with this whole prosecution and with the State’s case and the fact that the State is prosecuting the defendant please?

      BDLR: Objection!

      JN: OVERRULED! Give the poor defendant’s poor lawyer a chance to seek justice, counsel, or you will find yourself disbarred and prosecuted.

      OMARA: Please continue Mr. West.

      WEST: Yes, thank you. Well Your Honor, everybody lied and the State refused to comply with the law so my client was railroaded and my colleague and I were prejudiced and they were all really really bad just like my client’s mother said, and they even fooled the president, and the charges should be dropped, and this court should order damages from Mr. Crump and Ms. Jackson and the Fulton-Martins on behalf of the defendant who has been made to suffer and hide and undergo so much that no decent American should ever have to endure.

      JN: Thank you. Case dismissed. Mr. Fogen — uh — Mr. Zimmerman you are free to go. Deposit your bracelet by the door and resume protecting our neighborhoods asap.

      Court adjourned.

      Oh well, the best laid plans of mice and men (and punks and fools and racists and liars and saints and sinners and Afro-Peruvians) often to all to Hell in a Handbag…

        I Know Xena he got the message in a left luggage locker at a greyhound bus shelter.

        Keys to the locker apeared in his wind skreen wipers.

        So West scooted over to the locker an opened it up to discover a smalll recording device.

        Similar to the one Crump used when he questioned her over the phone.

        He pressed play ..

        The mucic theme from mission immpossable is heard in background a voice speaks.
        Mr West as you know an special Merican has fallen afoull of a vast sociaeconomic conspircy .
        By lieberel fronts headed By Obama but there real agenda is world domination through the destuction of democracy.
        Zimmerman is our last best hope to save the America of the freedoms to blow away .

        If you choose to take this assignemt

        Will not deny all knowlage of this or you but infact will embrace you as our new hero as GZ will be history by then an our memory spans are short.

        This message will sef destruct in five secons .

      Pyorck, that’s what happens to presumptuous and pompous individuals. You know, I think O’Mara and West planned on ambushing BDLR (who did not know in advance that West will be taking the stand). But BDLR (and this BDLR-guy has a photographic memory) turned the tables on them!

    Am I dreaming?

    BDLR’s performance today was just a breathtaking onslaught. If a lawyer like West could not absorb the kind of pressure coming from BDLR, imagine what will happen to a mediocre like GZ. I find it amazing that the defense turned a hearing for reimbursement into a public inquest into- and against the defense. I am sure Beavis and Butthead would have performed better than West and O’Mara today. And West provided a big window into the inner workings of the defense and talked about stuff discussed between himself and O’Mara – stuff that normally remain secret (and definitely privileged!). I guess Judge Nelson enjoyed every aspect of that public duel and allowed the it to go on (may God bless her) . Overall this is a very bad day for the defense – especially from the PR point of view. BDLR nailed West over and over again. I hope DeeDee and W#9 watched this and took solace in the fact that this Tiger called BDLR was able to take vengeance for them – especially against Mr. West. I will be having a nice dinner today. No kidding. This stuff today is just unbelievable. I must be dreaming!

      Ditto on all you said. The best part was that West and MOM are so incredibly stupid (it’s the only word that comes to mind) that they willingly and voluntarily revealed atty work product. I guess this is why they thought Benjamin Crump, Esq., would release HIS work product. It’s clear who has more integrity. And sense.

Maybe he forgets his very limited encounter with O’Mara during the fist bond hearing. I think one already see than what Bernie is capable of, although he had to stay inside clearly defined limits.

        Because they were going for all the “answers” West and O’Mara were providing, just like BDLR did NOT do. BDLR was saying, “Answer the question.” The Outhousers were buying all O’Mara’s nonsensical crap without bothering to evaluate whether it was logically POSSIBLE or not. Well they were in the habit: they believed Fogen’s nonsensical crap without bothering to evaluate whether it was logically POSSIBLE or not before that. I wonder how Jeralyn feels about it now. Oh nevermind…

        Occasionally I check. Her last blog article so far:One Year Anniversary of George Zimmerman’s Arrest I don’t have much time to check her forum though, she is quite active there too. But on her blog this commemoration was the last thing she did on Fogen.

        Strictly she already called judge Nelson prejudiced pro defense, and she would have much fodder to continue the theme now.

    i think the implication regarding GPS records being of a quality proving “they went thataway” was just revealed to be a fiction.

    In other words, my take-away is that the GPS records for TM are such that it’s only going to show he was in the general vicinity of a few cell towers, maybe not even three.

    It would take three to triangulate a semi-precise position.

    MOM tried to make a point about a report (complete with a map of where the CELL TOWERS WERE – not where TM was) that he feels he received after a delay. He tried to sneak in the implication that this somehow “proves” TM’s route from 7Eleven to the RATL was not as direct as one would think. What, if anything exculpatory could be made from that is beyond me.

    As near as I can tell, he was criminally profiled when he was already “near the clubhouse now,” since whatever happened before that isn’t prove-able or seemingly important.

      He did not hear him there was a coordinate obtained, just that he noticed that the call was served from a further away tower than the closest one indicating, on the sly, that Trayvon was not where the State says he was….

      weak, pathetic argument as cell traffic has variables to where it is served from (overflow, simultaneous signaling, upgrades, etc)

        Whatever it was that the defense was alluding to, it seemed weak. Obviously we don’t yet know what GPS info is out there and what it will tell us, if anything, about “they went thataway,” but if that’s the best he’s got then it’s awfully weak and awfully inconclusive and awfully vague.

      That was irritating as all get out. It appeared to me as if West was trying to conflate the cell tower records with the specious allegation they’ve been putting forth about the jewelry/screw driver.

      As if, by virtue of these separate incidents, months apart, in different cities, indicates that if Trayvon didn’t go straight from the store to his home, he must necessarily have been involved in some criminal activity. It was disgraceful. That’s how I heard it, and you can bet that’s how their donors and supporters heard it. Watch for that allegation to be one of the prominent talking points to deflect away from the fact that fogen waived the pre-trial immunity hearing.

      Oh I’m sure Trayvon’s ping records (but wait a minute — if that was not Trayvon’s phone then maybe those ping records belonged to some other suspicious guy?) indicate that he was somewhere Fogen did not agree he should be at some time that Fogen did not want him to be there, which is major evidence of criminal activity on the part of “the suspect” who saw “the gun” and who asked, with criminal intent, “You got a fuckin’ problem homie?” dahn da dahn dahnnnnnn… PING “!”

    Professor, I think West’s performance today was a disaster. And the irony of it all? Well, West worked tirelessly to make Mr. Crump a witness and force him to the stand. But it was Mr. West who ended up as a witness and in the witness box. Amazing stuff today.

          Based on what BDLR said about that deposition, it’s my impression that BDLR deemed it harassment. I mean, a person who has worked on the same job more than 20 years is asked what she did and earned previously?

    Does this mean there is no cleaned up tape for either the screams or W8 interview (very strange ABC only kept the 5min section they posted), and no other GPS data for the phones other than what, if any, has already been disclosed. If the case, I never held my breath, at least on the GPS data being available and usable from my personal experience tracking vulnerable adults, but it will be a disappointment for those who did.

        I missed that. So we will still have to wait a bit. IMO, and my prediction would be, that even if prosecution can’t clean it enough so that every word, phrase, scream is perfectly audible and or distinguishable, the fact there are two voices, one with GZ’s ineffectual calls of “Help me” (the only sound he has ever claimed to have made) and the other voice is screaming at full lung, that should be sufficient to show that at least one of them must be Trayvon as unless a ventriloquist you can’t do both at the same time. So either the “help mes” are GZ’s or the screams… both are physically impossible.

      No, for the screams – there was no enhanced tape that the state (as pertains to Corey, BDLR, et al) provided, that Mr. Martin heard, before Corey was even assigned to the case. That’s not to say there is no enhanced tape.

      The DeeDee interview apparently (from West’s testimony) had a version that was slightly better than the original provided, but I’m still not really clear on where they got that from since ABC only had the 5 mins.

      Yes, there is no GPS data other than what has already been provided.

        I think Bernie made a really good point. Could it be that the city hall, if I recall correctly, where Tracy heard it the second time had a much better system, better loudspeakers? That’s not exactly how he said but pretty close. Very, very good point.

        Now imagine. Tracy had said at that point: That was a much better copy. Had any of them immediately thought about the better system, the better volume? So they are trying to make hearsay a central issue?

        The DeeDee interview apparently (from West’s testimony) had a version that was slightly better than the original provided

        That was the original copy on Crump#s phone that he had to hand over to FDLE on Nelson’s order. The prosecution obviously gave them what they had. And strictly, I am a bit suspicious about all this hard-to-understand-caprioles around DeeDee’s interviews. I’ve made the same argument over and over again, e.g. at Talkleft. If I as a foreigner seem to have less problems to understand DeeDee but Americans like O’Mara and West, then I do have a problem with the argument.

        You know what my impression is, the audio would only be satisfactorily clear if “if they could hear “something on it they want to hear”, and as long as they cannot hear that, it is hard to understand..

        but I’m still not really clear on where they got that from since ABC only had the 5 mins

        They filed a motion demanding ABC handed them everything they had. ABC told them, they would release everything they had. Which they did.

        Could it be, either Matt Gutman or his colleague realized that Crump was having problems with his recording or his cell phone and thus recorded the passage in which he shifted phones? They can ask them? No? Now maybe that copy wasn’t so brilliant either but it was slightly improved by the specialists in ABC?`Now lean back and imagine, the two–West & O’Mara– had spent some of the money on an audio engineer to enhance the tape instead of on lavish living and security expenses, state of the art case management programs? At what time would they have had a “better copy”? Probably several month earlier.

        The problem is they do not really want to spend too much money on something they already have, they prefer to dig for something they suspect is hidden from them. That’s the clear outcome of the basic ideology Fogen should never have been forced to stand trial to start with.

      Well announcing that they’re going to have a “major evidentiary hearing before trial” is ridiculous. They can’t just decide to hold a “major evidentiary hearing.” This whole charade was designed to make the Fogenites think that there is some terrible thing being done to the defense to railroad an innocent Afro-Peruvian. They will never be able to accept the fact that he was just convicted for a crime. That’s for — underdogs. Not for his exalted kind of people. Especially not for his “self-exalted” kind of people.

        I did catch that West snuck in a reference to information regarding Trayvon’s “criminal record.” BDLR was able to get a question in asking about the school board, in deposition, explaining that whatever Trayvon had did not meet their definition of a “weapon.”

        The judge reined them in before they got any further afield on that one.

        But, taking that into consideration, as well as seven to eight hours of deposition with various family members, it does look like the defense is still intending to discredit the victim in any way possible.

        Is the purpose of an evidenciary hearing to determine what can and cannot be considered admissable?

        lurker, always keep in mind that the Prof taught us, that every smear tactics they will try against the family or Trayvon opens the valve of character evidence from prosecution concerning Fogen.

        But I am very, very thankful to Bernie, I will call him that from now on, not BDLR anymore, that he let us know that they in fact deposed Sybrina Fulton 7 hours, if I remember correctly. Now imagine this. What relevant evidence concerning the crime could Sybrina possibly have.

        I am realizing more and more that the Professor was right from the very start and I was being too pessimist.

      Looks like a combination of someone told him to sit quietly eyes forward and the dawning realization that he hasn’t got much of a defense.

      Afterward O’Mara was telling the press that George really wants to face a jury of his peers. Haha. Next will come the surprise that a jury of his peers doesn’t exactly mean Taaffe, Osterman and so on.

      But, O’Mara is still trying to peddle the story that if not for the publicity (and all those protesting meddlers), that George would never have been charged, or if he was, it would be dismissed. Is that really how things still roll down there in Florida Mr.O’Mara? I wouldn’t exactly be proud.

    Court reporter: reads back question.

    I think this charade is to show Fogen and his outhousers that West and O’Mara really CAN do something exciting (I’ll bet there are a lot of guys getting really excited about now, eating their cheetos while watching the livestream) in court, because at trial there won’t be opportunity for much excitement for these two.

    OM: “And isn’t it true Ms. DeeDee that you lied about going to the hospital?”

    BDLR: Objection. Relevancy.

    JN: Sustained. Move on.

    OM: Ms DeeDee, is it your testimony that you actually exist and that you are not those other women who do not?

    OM: Ms. DeeDee, were you pregnant by the thug when you lied about going to his funeral?

    JN: Sustained. Move on.

    OM: Ms. DeeDee, Didn’t Mr. Crump coach you to say all those awful things about the defendant?

    BDLR: Objection. Asked and answered.

    JN: Sustained. Move on.

    OM: Ms. DeeDee, Isn’t it true that you entered into a scurrilous and unlawful agreement with Trayvon Martin’s parents to scheme a million dollars out of the HOA?

    If the defense had deposed Dee Dee last fall, they would have obtained the information they claim they were denied — information BTW that they have obtained more than a month before trial.

    Therefore, there is no prejudice to the defense and no basis for sanctions.

    The defense cannot delay or refuse to investigate the case and later seek sanctions after they obtain information.

    The motion for sanctions for “concealing” the admission about the non-hospital visit is ridiculous and the information in any event is not material or relevant and probably inadmissible.

    No sanctions imposed on BDLR for his epic putdown, but O’Mara will be permitted to specify certain objectionable references to him. O’Mara will be permitted to propose redactions within 5 days and give it to BDLR, who will have 5 days to agree or disagree.

    If agreed, Judge Nelson will approve and sign an order to that effect. If not agreed, she will hold a hearing and rule on the disagreements.

    Judge Nelson wants to place the defendant under oath and ask him if he wants to voluntarily relinquish his statutory right to an immunity hearing.

    O’Mara has objected stating that he wants to keep the option available to possibly assert after the State and defense have rested at trial.

      Posted: 12:17 p.m. Tuesday, April 30, 2013

      SANFORD, Fla. — The man who is charged with fatally shooting 17-year-old Trayvon Martin told a judge Tuesday that he agrees with his defense attorneys’ decision not to seek an immunity hearing under the state’s “Stand Your Ground” self-defense law.

        It looks, too, as if he may be on heavy, heavy doses of antidepressant medication, Rayven. That socks on weight in massive amounts, it’s known. The heavier the dosage, the more weight goes on. Coupled with is half-day incarcerations, his fears of going outside, and anxieties of the case (compulsive eating), these have probably contributed to his huge weight gain. He has to be on heavy medications–IMO.

        Does anyone happen to know whether inmates are allowed to have antidepressant medications once they are incarcerated?

They only little bit he uses in his argument that there are no clearly defined time limits by the only motion that is still open to him. The first he waived himself. He only could have done that at arraignment.

      I think O’ara is trying to split hairs on whether it will be “pre-trial” or “during” trial. If O’Mara let’s him waive it will only be “pre-trial”. This is exactly what the prosecution wants clarified, and O’Mara is tiptoeing around.

Good point, Also Bernie is a lot more fair, consider if it matters that Sybrina Fulton is present at DeeDee interview, would it matter too that Tracy at the time he made the “relevant statement”, on February 28, 10 something a.m., was observed by all these upright SPD officers? Knowing full well what their opinion was, and thus their opinion about their son?

And then there’s West, whose voice is several registers lower, painfully slow in making his points, and puts everyone to sleep. The two of them are so extreme in their styles that there’s no middle ground: no steady, even-tempered, effective attorney who is able to articulate points quickly. JMO, but the two of them leave a huge hole in the middle, as per the impression of any competent representation.
