Zimmy update

Speaking of her talent: what is with the hop/skip forward move that makes her titties bounce and jiggle. It has even been taught to her backup girls but they aren't as good at it or just don't have the same quality breast tissue.... I guess it turns some guys on, but to me it is just tacky.

The only thing that I want to see Beyoncé doing, would not be posted, even if I wrote it.
 












Yeah, for something that was not "race" related, it sure does seem a certain race is all over this saying how unfair it is.

Songs, twitters, OMG they're all over it --Beyonce went on stage and asked for a moment of silence.

Who anointed her the queen of Hollywood? She annoys me. I cant go anywhere without seeing her face-- I went shopping at H&M and there was her face all over the store:( Yuk.
 




I agree with the verdict. AND I don't know why this should be a race issue. I think the stupid media should shut up already.
 




A dozen Travons will die in the streets of Chicago this week, and no one will care. What was so special about this case? Reporters in questioning the defense and Martin family Lawyer, still are calling Zimmerman white.

I cant believe this, but I agree with you a second time on this thread.
 




















They're scared for their lives.

And I have to compliment the family of Dr M L King whose niece has called for understanding for both the Martins and the Zimmermans.

"Let us please give a nonviolent response to Trayvon's family, to Mr. Zimmerman and to America to help to promote healing and to lay the foundation needed to repeal faulty laws that fail to protect our youth, and to further enact other reforms to prevent such tragedies in the future."


Additionally (as Fuckie pointed out) Sanford is quiet. Even the 'star witness' (Rachel Jeantel) that was difficult to watch has stated she is a Christian and though disappointed will respond as such. I think any true Christian should give a listen to her words. She doesn't agree but she is acting in the fashion she was taught to act by her religion. This is actually an impressive plug for that religion.

Then we have the slugs in Chicago and Los Angeles who are looking for any excuse to get drunk, get high and commit mayhem. It'll take awhile to die down, just like the Watts riots and the Rodney King riots. These people wil always be around....waiting...for something....
 




The chick who led the Prosecution, sounds like a vindictive, crooked bitch. She fired the I.T. Guy, for releasing evidence that she was trying to hide from the defense.

You ain't kidding.

Shortly after Dershowitz’s criticisms, Harvard Law School’s dean’s office received a phone call. When the dean refused to pick up, Angela Corey spent a half hour demanding of an office-of-communications employee that Dershowitz be fired. According to Dershowitz, Corey threatened to sue Harvard, to try to get him disbarred, and also to sue him for slander and libel. Corey also told the communications employee that she had assigned a state investigator — an employee of the State of Florida, that is — to investigate Dershowitz. “That’s an abuse of office right there,” Dershowitz says.



What happened in the weeks and months that followed was instructive. Dershowitz says that he was flooded with correspondence from people telling him that this is Corey’s well-known M.O. He says numerous sources — lawyers who had sparred with Corey in the courtroom, lawyers who had worked with and for her, and even multiple judges — informed him that Corey has a history of vigorously attacking any and all who criticize her. But it’s worse than that: Correspondents told him that Corey has a history of overcharging and withholding evidence.

The Zimmerman trial is a clear case of the former and a probable case of the latter. Zimmerman was charged with second-degree murder, also known as “depraved mind” murder. The case law for that charge, an attorney who has worked in criminal prosecution outside Florida tells me, is near-unanimous: It almost never applies to one-on-one encounters. Second-degree murder is the madman who fires indiscriminately into a crowd or unlocks the lions’ cage at the zoo. “Nothing in the facts of this case approaches that.” Which Angela Corey, a veteran prosecutor, should have known, and a grand jury would have told her. In fact, both the initial police investigation and the original state attorney in charge of the case had determined exactly that: There was no evidence of any crime, much less second-degree murder

But that did not stop Corey from zealously overcharging and — the facts suggest — withholding evidence to ensure that that charge stuck.

Still, by the end of the case it was clear that the jury was unlikely to convict Zimmerman of second-degree murder; hence the prosecution’s addition of a manslaughter charge — as well as its attempt to add a charge for third-degree murder by way of child abuse — after the trial had closed. “In 50 years of practice I’ve never seen anything like it,” says Dershowitz. It’s a permissible maneuver, but as a matter of professional ethics it’s a low blow.

Corey’s post-trial performance has been less than admirable as well. Asked in a prime-time interview with HLN how she would describe George Zimmerman, Corey responded, “Murderer.” Attorneys who spoke with me called her refusal to acknowledge the validity of the jury’s verdict everything from “disgusting” to “disgraceful.”

But will Corey ever be disciplined for prosecutorial abuses? It’s unlikely. State attorneys cannot be brought before the bar while they remain in office. Complaints can be filed against Corey, but they will be deferred until she is no longer state attorney. The governor can remove her from office, but otherwise her position — and her license — are safe.

Meanwhile, those who speak out against her continue to be mistreated. Ben Kruidbos (pronounced CRIED-boss), the IT director at Corey’s state-attorney office, was fired last week — one month after testifying during the Zimmerman trial that Corey had withheld from defense attorneys evidence obtained from Trayvon Martin’s cell phone. Corey’s office contends that Kruidbos was fired for poor job performance and for leaking personnel records. The termination notice delivered to Kruidbos last Friday read: “You have proven to be completely untrustworthy. Because of your deliberate, wilful and unscrupulous actions, you can never again be trusted to step foot in this office.” Less than two months before this letter, Kruidbos had received a raise for “meritorious performance.”

The records in question — Kruidbos maintains he had nothing to do with leaking them — revealed that Corey used $235,000 in taxpayer money to upgrade her pension and that of her co-prosecutor in the Zimmerman case, Bernie de la Rionda. The upgrade was legal, but Harry Shornstein, Corey’s predecessor, had said previously that using taxpayer funds to upgrade pensions was not “proper.”

Meanwhile, while Kruidbos has been forced out of the state attorney’s office, the managing director who wrote his termination letter — one Cheryl Peek — remains. In 1990 Peek was fired from the same state attorney’s office by Harry Shornstein’s predecessor, Ed Austin, for jury manipulation. Now, as managing director for that office, she trains lawyers in professional ethics.

Since her election, Corey seems to be determinedly purging from the ranks any who cross her and surrounding herself with inferiors whose ethical scruples appear to mirror her own. Meanwhile, those she chooses to victimize — most recently, George Zimmerman — far too often have little recourse.

“Make crime pay,” Will Rogers once quipped: “Become a lawyer.” Angela Corey seems to be less interested in making crime pay than in making her critics pay.

She said she prayed and God wanted her to testify so I have to come to this conclusion:

She is suggesting God wanted her to be humiliated in front of the whole world and wanted her to help acquit Zimmerman.

Am I wrong?

I have no ides what 'god' wanted or if 'god' wanted anything. My point was although disappointed, she believed the path to follow now was a peaceful path because she was brought up as a Christian. We all have a right to disagree and as weird as she may have sounded or as biased as anyone perceives her, she appears to be following her faith right now as opposed to the scum that is rioting in Chicago, LA and elsewhere.

I'm not even a Christian but I think that is a good path to take. Am I wrong?

Corey's biggest critic [Dershowitz] is a blow hard. He predicted the charges would be dismissed without trial based on self defense and he was wrong about that.

Dershovitz is a college professor and was an acclaimed advocate st OJ Simpson's murder trial. These 'professorial attorneys' aren't here to find truth, they exist to find a little legal opening they can expand. Does anyone here actually believe OJ Simpson was 'not guilty?
http://forward.com/articles/162526/alan-dershowitz-trashes-oj-simpson-glove-claim/?p=all

The other 'expert' we heard from was Mark Geragos. He STILL says Scott Peterson was innocent. This is how he makes his money, getting people off - not finding the truth.
http://wrbw.membercenter.worldnow.c...eragos-on-scott-peterson-i-think-hes-innocent

For those who believed Zimmy completely innocent from the git, prosecution did him a favor by overcharging him .

The bottom line is this - it's over. Now come the civil lawsuits which also happened post OJ trial.
