Residents there in the same gated condo complex as George Zimmerman. She is testifying via facetime because she is under the weather. Again, at this point not exactly sure how her testimony is going to fit into the larger Defense Strategy here, but elloise dilligard, shes been on the stand now for about 5 or 10 minutes. We also found out just before she began to testify, martin, that according to mark omara, she is going to be the defenses last witness. Mark omara was saying right before he called ms.

They are tasked with making the ultimate decision over whether George Zimmerman is guilty of seconddegree murder or manslaughter, or if he is to be acquitted in the shooting death of 17yearold Trayvon Martin, to which he has pled not guilty. So, while most of us anxiously await the verdict, there are others who have already decided what the end result will be. Not what the verdict, so much, but in its wake.
