Legal Insurrection offers analysis of the prosecution case in the George Zimmerman trial.
Today, the State presented their closing argument to the jury in the
matter of Florida v. Zimmerman. After 14 months of investigation and
discovery, weeks of pre-trial hearings, weeks more of trial testimony,
and the expenditure of taxpayer money on the order of a million dollars,
this was it–this is where the State would close the deal and deliver
their compelling narrative of guilt to the jury.
What the jury got
was not a compelling narrative of guilt, however, but a rambling
monologue of isolated bits of circumstantial evidence, much of which was
consistent with–and even supportive of–the defense’s “self-defense”
theory of the case.
A closing full of holes.
Let's see how the defense does Friday morning.
