What Zimmerman said about not knowing the address comes at about 3:20 of the recording:

Jurors will remember what a white on black graphics says.  In my opinion, the white on blacks are so harsh that they are ugly.  Too many lawyers want their graphics to look nice.  So too many want to use pretty blue backgrounds but the idea is to jolt a jury into remembering the point, not being soothed by them....

This is a real pointer on graphics that Ph.D. sociologists who serve as jury consultants have studied.....This tip comes via jury consultants from major trials....Scott Petersen, Michael Jackson, etc.....

That just makes no sense. Unless he was fearful of his life. Now they say maybe TM was on top. Why then, would he be screaming and yelling nothing about a gun?

The stuff prior to that minute or so aside (because I think bad decisions were made then) I just can't come up with a theory that makes sense. And the prosecution didn't either.

personally, i don't think the state proved their charge beyond a reasonable or disproved self defense beyond one.

It definitely could have happened the way the state says.  It also could have happened a different way.

Even the state seemed to admit multiple possibilities about who was on top, who was screaming, who was attacking who, etc...

for me there's definitely enough reasonable doubt.

one thing about the closing argument that bothered me, though, was how BDLR really manipulated the Hannity interview.

He showed a clip where GZ says:

HANNITY: Is there anything you regret? Do you regret getting out of the car to follow Trayvon that night?
ZIMMERMAN: No, sir.
HANNITY: Do you regret that you had a gun that night?
ZIMMERMAN: No, sir.
HANNITY: Do you feel you wouldn't be here for this interview if you didn't have that gun?
ZIMMERMAN: No, sir.
HANNITY: You feel you would not be here?
ZIMMERMAN: I feel it was all God's plan and for me to second guess it or judge it --

That makes GZ look callous and heartless and having no remorse.

But...he didn't play the end of the interview where GZ says:

HANNITY: I asked you if you wanted to -- if you could speak to Trayvon Martin's family. I asked you if you could speak to even the American public, there's so many people that have so many opinions that vary so much. You know, if you wanted to look into that camera and tell the American public something about George Zimmerman and about -- this case with Trayvon Martin that has gotten such media attention, what would you want to tell them?
ZIMMERMAN: First, I would like to readdress your question when you asked if I would have done anything differently. When you asked that I thought you were referring to if I would not have talked to the police, if I would have maybe have gotten an attorney, if I wouldn't have taken the CVSA and that I stand by, I would not have done anything differently.

But I do wish that there was something, anything I could have done that wouldn't have put me in the position where I had to take his life. And I do want to tell everyone, my wife, my family, my parents, my grandmother, the Martins, the city of Stanford, and America that I am sorry that this happened.

I hate to think that because of this incident, because of my actions it's polarized and divided America and I'm truly sorry.

That leaves a bit of a different impression.  BDLR had to know about that part of the interview.  He deliberately didn't show it and did show the earlier part to create a certain impression.  I guess that's his prerogative and makes sense for the prosecution.

But it left a bit of a bad taste with me, like he was trying to put on over on the jury, keep something hidden from them.

He said bad by any means you want to measure. Very poor.

That's really all the state has done all along, isn't it?  Yesterday, they seemed to be agreeing that Trayvon was probably on top, and had probably hit him at some point.  The only question was whether or not he might have stopped hitting him before Zimmerman shot him.

So my question is, if George is found guilty of something, what are the odds of an appeals court overturning it?  

Yesterday, it seemed as though the prosecution was admitting that Zimmerman's story of self-defense was at least as plausible as anything else.  I wasn't able to watch all of the closing statements today, but I didn't see anything that really challenged the plausibility of his story.

Not because the prosecution proved beyond a reasonable doubt, but because in his experience, when there's a killing, and there's no doubt who did it, juries normally want someone to be held accountable for it.

So I'm back to saying I believe that will happen. Mainly because, they jury has no idea about 30 years or more in prison. Even if it wasn't proved.

He also laid it on the line and pulled no punches about race. He said people need to quit beating around the bush. This case IS about race he said. He said look at the TV commentators, black ones have one view and white ones mostly another and anyone who won't admit that is lying to themselves. You can always depend on him to be direct.
