Many people were wondering what approach Mark O’Mara would take now that Operation Q-Beam has been successful.    While this is not a formal retort to the court, the GZ Defense Team has posted the following notification as a reply to The State’s Response:

The STATE’S RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SANCTIONS AGAINST STATE ATTORNEY’S OFFICE FOR DISCOVERY VIOLATIONS, while pointed, has little substance that addresses the very serious motion we have before the Court.

From a legal perspective, the Zimmerman case is about whether George Zimmerman acted in self-defense, but we understand that the case has also become important to the national conversation about race relations, about gun control, and about “Stand Your Ground” laws. Although the Court will not be able to resolve these larger issues, we as the defense team, have chosen to engage in the national conversation in a responsible and respectful way. (more…)

In the face of adversity….

Hence, this is how you confront the opposition. Allow them to advance into the false field of their accusations – then confront them head on with sunlight and truthful disposition.

This is the part that none of them appeared willing to do, but it is the only manner and method of actually confronting the core issue behind the persecution without alluding to it and nibbling around the edges….. (more…)

update:  Here’s the Full response motion pdf file

If you read the Orlando Sentinel article written by Rene Stutzman today, maybe you will be able to witness the leverage over O’Mara we have oft talked of, and described as being dangerous to George Zimmerman’s defense.

George Zimmerman and his immediate circle of influence were/are well aware of the risk O’Mara has presented.   They know he lied – yet they stuck with him.   Perhaps because they felt sorry for him, or perhaps because they simply had no other option.  Regardless, it is now abundantly clear, the full extent of the compromise.   Perhaps today, they are more understanding…. 

Note not only how Bernie De La Rionda is talking – but note also what references he is talking to. Specifically calling back into light the Financial Affidavit with a well placed rhetorical question to O’Mara: …”do you really want to go there?”… (more…)

HatTip Angel

I have not even watched the entire thing all the way through yet…. My blood boils. I must absorb the Brutus O’Mara in small doses.

More later…..

In a staggering, but not unexpected, display of judicial bias Judge Nelson has ruled against George Zimmerman’s defense,… again.    Denying George Zimmerman the right to depose Trayvon Martin family attorney, Benjamin Crump, about his involvement with all issues surrounding Witness #8, “DeeDee”: (more…)

Not content to telling Black Entertainment Television that “the stand your ground law is an absurd statute“……   And not content in telling CNN “my client believes he is not a racist“……  Mark O’Mara cues up the following talking point:

…”according to your brother’s attorney you are not helping him (insert quote here)”…

………………………………..

Yep, showing a profound proclivity for stupidity and simultaneously his own progressive intellect, Mark O’Mara tries to thread the PC needle while riding the rabid version of the BGI tiger, by whipping up a conversation with, wait for it, yep…..  THE DAILY BEAST.    A most profoundly and insufferably left-wing progressive mouthpiece for the Grievance Industry.

WHY?  To discuss, the agenda laden “Robert Zimmerman Jr is a racist” meme advocated by the progressive frontman Winston Ross who is writing his agenda driven narrative:

George Zimmerman Lawyer Calls Brother’s Racist Tirade ‘Inappropriate’

Mar 27, 2013 4:45 AM EDT

George Zimmerman’s defense team  [ both of them 😉 ] filed a reply to Benjamin Crump’s response regarding deposition.   (pdf available here)   Essentially outlining the initial claims in the first motion for reconsideration – with clarification that ‘protected work product’ inquiry is a standard that cannot be met in advance of the question(s) being asked.

Still no word on why the Judge delayed the next hearing, or how the Orlando Sentinel (Rene Stutzman) became aware of the postponement. (more…)

On March 18th George Zimmerman attorney, Mark O’Mara, filed a motion for judicial reconsideration regarding a prior ruling stopping Trayvon Martin family attorney, Benjamin Crump from being deposed.

There were/are multiple substantive arguments in the motion filed by O’Mara outlining the defense position that Benjamin Crump, is specifically a key witness for deposition surrounding all of the elements regarding discovery of Witness #8, Dee Dee.   Additionally the motion draws attention to misleading statements, false representations to the court, and false claims by Crump to the media and defense.  (review here)

Today Benjamin Crump, through his counsel, Bruce Blackwell, responded: (more…)

[Excerpt From Orlando Sentinel] … for the second time in as many days, defense attorneys asked Circuit Judge Debra S. Nelson to sanction prosecutors, accusing them of another rule violation.  [pdf available here]

This time was a fight over whether to video record the deposition of the state’s most important witness, a young Miami woman who was on the phone with Trayvon moments before he was shot.

Her deposition was scheduled for 9 a.m. March 13 at a state office in Miami, and the parties were in place, along with a camera and operator, according to new paperwork filed by defense attorney Mark O’Mara, but Assistant State Attorney Bernie de la Rionda said no to the video recording.

That happened after defense attorneys had sent two deposition notices to the state,  [The first on March 6th, the second on March 11th] spelling out that the session would be videotaped and identifying the company that would do the recording. (more…)

A while ago, around the time we were contemplating “Password Protected Posts for ongoing research sharing”, and during an email exchange with DiwataMan, he posed the question: (paraphrased)

“how do you know the integrity of the person you may or may not give the password to – that they would not divulge sensitive information“?

Indeed, it has been a challenge to discover the “intents” of many people following this case – because, as you are probably aware, many of the Scheme Team players embedded into the Treehouse commenting community. They hid their agenda and operated a psy-ops campaign to discover information, that information was then transmitted to the prosecution team, the BGI and the concentric circles around the DOJ. (more…)
