#247I dont see why zimmerman should be the one with benefit of doubt as far as intention. He should only get benefit of doubt as far as who shot Trayvon and the state will easily prove that Zimmerman shot the gun at Martin beyond a reasonable doubt. But why should he get credibility with the self defense thing? He has already shown he is willing to lie for more minor stuff like trying to get away with less bail. If he does that, is it a stretch to believe that he is willing to alter what happened ever so slightly (getting pounded on the ground with getting pounded on concrete with the cuts coming from a single fall after he got punched instead of repeated pounding or that he was attacked first and he did noting to provoke it). Seriously, why is this guy who has proven to lie already and has disregarded sage advice on a RECORDED 911 call be given any credibility as to what happened?Comment -

#249he has every reason to lie about manslaughter. It is a twisted world if the state has to start guessing what his intention was . That is why I hate the law. The burden should be on the state to prove if someone committed an act. But the burden should shift to the defendent to prove WHY he committed such an act.Comment -

If he committed manslaughter he indeed does have every reason to lie about it.
The state almost always has to have motive. One reason serial killers are so difficult to identify. They often have no motive specific to the victim. They simply enjoy killing.
Once it's proven or become a fact in the legal proceeding that the suspect has in fact committed "such an act" it's often left to the defense to explain why. All kinds of why come into play, self defense, defense of others, mental illness etc... Recently a man in Texas wasn't even charged with killing another man though the fact he did did not seem t be in dispute. The fact the dead man had sexually assaulted his daughter was provided as the "why."Comment -

Burden of proof has always been on the prosecution, if you want to convict someone of a crime you need to prove beyond reasonable doubt that they committed that crime. This freedom is what America was built on and why so many want so badly to live here and that is not going to change because a racist lynch mob wants a man hung.
If a woman kills a man who is raping her does she have to prove that the sex was non-consensual?Comment -

#252She better have some evidence it was a rape or assault. Taking a life is taken serious and if she has nothing but her word it was an assault or rape it's probably going to be a hard sell to the DA. There's a bunch of female inmates who are in custody today doing years for offing their husbands and they claimed they'd been abused, often for years. Didn't stop them from being convicted and doesn't make it right. But it does happen.Comment -

That evidence would include things like-

No where did I, or anyone else, post they believed-
I simply stated "She better have some evidence it was a rape or assault." Tearing of the vaginal walls and DNA would be evidence.
Seriously seek help, soon.
Runningman7 was suggesting that George Zimmerman should have the burden on him to prove that he did not murder Trayvon instead of the norm of the law requiring the prosecution to have the burden of proof.

#257Your posts routinely lack complete logic and often prior to the 25-30th post in a thread they contradict themselves. Kind of like your above post where you ask me to explain-
why you (I) think that a rape victim should be put in jail and dragged through the legal system (floating the bill for all legal fees) until she can prove herself innocent.
When a person of your intellectual skills refer to my statements as being "dumbass" I take that as a good sign and a complement. You should stick to topics of which you have knowledge. You know like how all of South America is East of Virginia. That was classic.
Just wondering... why do you care or ask what race I am?Comment -

Please show me where I posted anything that even suggested I thought that. You won't find it because I never stated it nor do I think that to be true. So basically it a BS argument you're trying to make by asserting statement to me. It's, like most of you're posts, are complete... BS.

Ok, here's the deal on a map North is up, South is down and West is left and East is right. There are these lines people use on maps. They're called latitude and longitude. Latitude is used to denote North and South while longitude is used to show East and West. Still with me? I Hope so. I'm using small words. Now here's a map they used to teach basic geography (fancy word meaning map learning) to 5th graders-
See how almost all the United States and Virgina is to the left of 75 degrees longitude and about 95% of South America is to the right of 75 degrees? That means you'd have to be a complete dumb ass (see there it's two words) to think that "South America was south-west from Virginia" or that I just confirmed it. You know since the entire place is basically South East of Virgina ... dumb ass.Comment -

The Mayan civilization was located off of the Gulf of Mexico both to the south and to the west of the beaches of Virginia where early American settlers first landed. This would mean that American settlers would have traveled in a south-west direction toward the Mayan civilization.

#263Man, you are a special kind of moron. You just posted a map of of Central America and identified it has being South America. And the Mayan people never lived in South America-
The Maya civilization extended throughout the present-day southern Mexican states of Chiapas, Tabasco, and the Yucatán Peninsula states of Quintana Roo, Campeche and Yucatán. The Maya area also extended throughout the northern Central American region, including the present-day nations of Guatemala, Belize, northern El Salvador and western Honduras.
The Maya area is generally divided into three loosely defined zones: the southern Pacific lowlands, the highlands, and the northern lowlands. The Maya highlands include all of elevated terrain in Guatemala and the Chiapas highlands. The southern lowlands lie just south of the highlands, and incorporate a part of the Mexican state of Chiapas, the south coast of Guatemala, Belize and El Salvador. The northern lowlands cover all of the Yucatán Peninsula, including the Mexican states of Yucatán, Campeche and Quintana Roo, the Petén Department of Guatemala, and all of Belize. Parts of the Mexican states of Tabasco and Chiapas are also included in the northern lowlands.
Did you attend a school somewhere? If so did they pick you up on a very small bus with some students, possibly yourself, wearing head protection? If you did attend some type school you should either request a refund or send back any diplomas or certificates they gave you. Clearly they were issued in error.
Once more I'll just ask you to Google "forum troll." You try to flame people on here by implying they're clowns, gay, in a gay marriage, living in a basement somewhere or are a "dumbass." But just as the literally skills you exhibit by the way you spell "dumbass" you don't have the basic intelligence needed to flame others. That means most, if not all, your flame attempts simply point out you're just not that smart.
Oh, I forgot I probably should have told you that map I used to teach you geographic directions appears flat on your computer screen but the world is actually round and not flat.Comment -

#265So I mistakenly stated the location of the Mayan civilization as South America instead of Central America, in a thread that had nothing to do with Mayan culture where I was justing busting on King Mayan, and you took the thread off topic to argue over it.
Now you have carried that over to a thread about Trayvon Martin because you are unable to debate your position on the case without resorting to childish insults.

Are you black? is this why you continue to post on this Trayvon Martin topic?
I stand for liberty and justice for all, not justice for Trayvon. I stand up for George Zimmerman because I feel that the law should be held to the high standard of innocent until proven guilty and that no man of any color should be subjected to facing criminal charges of any sort without proof beyond reasonable doubt.
If you are not black I am curious as to what your agenda is in this case?????? please share.Comment -

And let's just get it straight who insulted who first. I didn't start insulting you until you insulted me. You want to flame people and expect them not to point out when you make ridiculus claims and statements? What is that the "I'm rubber and you're glue" playground defense? You implied I was a clown, gay, in a gay marriage and possibly living in a basement. You're the one who called me a "dumbass" because I stated South America was East of Virgina.

You realize community colleges don't usually offer bachelor degrees, right?
Are you saying the highly educated attorneys who filed the charges are not as highly educated as the state attorney that didn't?
Much of what you say doesn't make any logical sense. Then you throw out some comment about a race card. Don't think I've mentioned anyone race. When it comes to race I really don't care.
You seem very ill informed regarding the justice system and the educational system.
I never said you were gay, I made a statement about what it would be like to be in the shoes of the Zimmermans, you somehow took this as I was talking about you to which I replied "unless you have a husband who is in jail and recently came across $155,000 than I was not referring to you.".
I never made a single insult about you and continued arguing my position with facts involving the case up until you regressed back to personal insults in post #240
I didn't have access to the transcripts you're partially posting here prior to leaving on a weekend dive trip. So maybe it's possible he (George) first mentioned the money in terms of .01% of the actual amount. So on that account you could be correct. But even in your argument you claim they didn't know it was their money... and they didn't want people to know how much money they had. That's a rather silly argument. If they didn't know they could use it why were they renting a house with it? Plus none of your posts address her estimating to her husband the amount available in the donation account and then when asked for an estimation from the judge she states she has "no idea."
Your arguments in this thread and elsewhere on this site lack logic and at times are just plain silly.Comment -

Tearing of the vaginal walls and DNA would occur with consensual sex also so that is no more evidence than Zimmermans bloody head and broken nose.

#274Bombshell dropped on Zimmerman haters!!!!!!
Asked by Morgan whether the couple were “deliberately trying to hide the truth” about their finances, O’Mara asked, “from who? From the jailers or other people in the cell [with Zimmerman]? There is not one phone call that evidences their intent to deceive the judge.”O’Mara didn’t specify who Shellie Zimmerman might have been attempting to obscure the truth about the PayPal account from, but he hinted that further evidence may prove that his client, George Zimmerman, had no intention of deceiving the court. “There is one tape that George says [to Shellie Zimmermn,] before you testify, pray first and tell the truth.”
George never lied during the bail hearing and the credibility of his wife has absolutely no significance in this case as she is not a witness and will never be called to the stand in this trial.
Zimmerman goes free on June 29th and it is very likely that his bond will remain $150,000 as O'Mara plans to call the bondsmen as witnesses for George to testify that he is not a flight risk.
sorry Tully.

But with statements like-
There is “no question — they did not tell the whole truth to the judge, which damages their credibility,” O’Mara said.
In the interview, O’Mara called the question of what Shellie Zimmerman knew about her and her husband’s true financial situation “a significant issue.” He said she did know more than she told the judge, and added, “we acknowledged that four days after the bond hearing.”
O’Mara said he was “not excusing him,” but that Zimmerman “owned up to” the untruths “right away, and transferred the money right away.”
My guess, just my guess, the perjury charge sticks and in the end Ms. Zimmerman probably walks with probation and maybe some community service. I'd also guess George get bail again.
This will be behind them soon and they can focus on the trial. I wouldn't take money on it's outcome. I think this has hurt their credibility hopefully George can get a fair trial. In a highly public trial like this it won't be easy and there will be unhappy people regardless of the outcome.Comment -

#278I don't see how this hurts "their" credibility. I see how it hurts the credibility of his wife but her credibility does not matter because she has no reason to be used as a credible witness in GZ's trial. GZ was in jail when the funds came in and had no access to the account. To the best of my knowledge George himself never testified under oath about the account so Shellie is the only on who lied.
If the whole point of the media rush as of late is to suggest that GZ lacks credibility it is a complete failure because it was his wife who lied not him, in fact there is clear audio from the phone calls where he told Shellie to tell the truth at the bond hearing.
Zimmermans bail gets reinstated without being raised GZ gets time served and goes back into hiding. Shellie perjury charges will remain pending and she may get a PBJ or have it put on a stet and may possibly even go away completely if charges against GZ are dropped and he was found to be wrongfully jailed.Comment -
