The Judge Is Corrupt (The Bizarre Cage Match of West V. Nelson)

Doug Giles at Clash Daily does a great job of pointing out what an utterly corrupt judge is presiding over the Zimmerman trial. Click on the title for the whole article. Here is a sample:

A gruff and angry Nelson actually walked right out of the courtroom despite the ongoing, beseeching protests of West and O’Mara after keeping them there long into the night until 10pm on Tuesday, declaring loudly again and again that her court was adjourned and berating them for daring to object to what they saw as the unreasonableness of her rulings and timetables. Veteran legal observers and pundits expressed astonishment.

Fortunately for West and company, after what climaxed in the almost the explosive confrontation in open court between he and Nelson today, he finally got Nelson to acknowledge that the prosecution had taken things a step too far.  After she reluctantly allowed a brief recess in which applicable case law was frantically researched and brought forth by the defense, she eventually reviewed their rebuttal to the prosecution’s ploy, and somberly ruled that West was right–that the 3rd degree felony murder charge was not legitimate for consideration by the jury.

I have been watching as much of the trial as possible, and it has been painful watching how desperate the prosecution and the judge are to convict Zimmerman of whatever they can make stick. Tomorrow should be interesting. The defense presents their closing arguments at 8:30 a.m. See you there....
