Deliberation was the nonemergency phone call. I did pick up on some things out of Rachel Jeantels testimony. Trayvon martins phone records or her phone records when they were talking. Of course, Rachel Jeantel is the friend that Trayvon Martin was talking to right before the shooting on the cell phone. Yeah. I call them the ear witnesses. The ones that heard the noises. They helped me fill the gap and a couple of the eyewitnesss but i think the one thing that stands out the most is the injuries. Just to mr. Zimmerman. What did you think of neighbor john goods testimony . Talked about mma style, ground and pound. Yeah. I mean, you know, what i i got from that was just the motions he saw. You know .

Zimmermans fate will soon be in the hands of six flordia women. They will begin deliberations friday. Will they find him guilty or not guilty of killing Trayvon Martin. The most weve heard from the defendant himself. Did you now have sufficient time to discuss with your attorneys whether or not you wanted to testify in this case . Yes, your honor. I dont need to know what was said but after those discussions, have you made a decision . Yes, your honor. What is your decision, sir. After consulting with counsel, not to testify, your honor. So, he wont testify but his defense attorney mark omara is talking, striking a confident turn after todays dramatic session. I think we have a very, very good chance with the jury right now and with the evidence as presented.
