she has a long way to go. it s time to study. remember, she just graduated medical school. she s determined to pass the boards and become a family practice doctor. she wants to do something different now. she wants to help motivate people, be a motivational speaker just like bonnie saint john because she was so helped through this by her. she also told me a story that really stuck with me. she said, i love to wear dresses. i wear them. then people stare at my leg and they stare at my injuries but i don t care and i m not going to stop wearing them. i m going to stand up and be who i am. you never know how strong you are until you have no choice but to be. and that is something to remember. we re going to keep going to boston, keep visiting her all year. please do. i was just on my day off walking down boylston street sunday morning. we will never, ever forget. poppy harlow, thank you very much. coming up next, hln s vinnie politan got a story with the prosecutors in the george
throughout the entire thing. they sat in the courtroom and showed very little emotion, and i don t know how they did that, but i could feel her breaking point when the defense attorney got up and showed a picture of her young, very thin son trying to make him look like a muscle bound monster and i could felt her behind me get up and leave the courtroom and basically after that i don t think she could take much more of them assailing her son, trying the victim in a case where he was an unarmed teenager just walking home. vinnie politan joins us now. you sat down. angela corey, bernie de a rionda. this was before cnn got the interviews with juror b-37, with rachel jeantel, so they didn t have that in their minds when you were asking them about what they thought of the witnesses, what they thought of the jurors. right. what did they tell you? well, you know, one thing
zimmerman trial. i ve had a little bit of time to reflect. was that your a. game? was that your best? how did you feel about your own performance? how did they answer? that s coming up next with vinnie. huh.fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. mmmhmmm.everybody knows that. well, did you know that old macdonald was a really bad speller? your word is.cow. cow. cow. c.o.w. .e.i.e.i.o. [buzzer] dangnabbit. geico. fifteen minutes could save you.well, you know.
let s watch that. you ve had a little bit of time to reflect. was that your a game? was that your best? how did you feel about your own performance? i thought i did a good job. i m not, quite frankly, used to losing, and so i m going to over my mind i m going to critique this over and over. i m still doing that probably, but i thought we did the best we can. not used to losing. critiquing. here s the thing. this is before, right, anderson spoke with the juror. with the juror. he is what is going on? he says, you know, he wanted to know, have you heard from the jury. he wanted to know. he wanted to understand why they didn t understand his case. he usually wins. didn t win this one, you know. so he s still sitting there perplexed running it over in his head. i know there s more from that, after dark, 10:00 p.m. eastern. vinnie politan, we ll be there. thanks so much. coming up next, we will go to mexico. military helicopter corners a small pickup truck.
jeantel. her credibility so crucial to the prosecution s case. twhorsds if the jury believes those words that trayvon martin wants george zimmerman off of him at the beginning of his confrontation i believe it s a win for the prosecution. especially in florida because jose you told bus the law if you start the fight it will be a long night. right? that s what they say in florida in terms of proving it was self-defense. on day four what do you have to do with defense counsel with rachel jeantel to balance it out. up have to destroy her credibility. it has to be done like a surgeon. they can t go after her too aggressively because this is a young, unsophisticated girl. don west will look like a bully. he went win any friend on that jury with the knock, knock joke so i think he has to walk on egg shells and make sure he destroys her specifically and completely on the evidence and her statements and not on any attitude. all right. vinnie politan, jose baez, thank
