today and my wife saw one of the kids that did it. and we see someone that matches the description in the neighborhood right now again. stand up community watchman or overzealous trigger happy watchman? there is a difference between being vigilant neighbor and a vigilante. and here clearly trayvon was doing nothing wrong. he was talking on the phone. we have testimony and phone records. this case would not be hard if the roles were reversed and there was a black neighborhood watch guy who killed a 17-year-old teenager no one would say this was a hard case. thank you. it is always good to talk to you. i appreciate your time tonight. still to come paula deen s tearful response to her critics.
at that time as mr. martin was moving down his body to get his fire arm. it is depicted in a way it was a doe he said i didn t know what stand your ground was. it was a real-life struggle of one man who was a community watchman based upon an experience he had in his life and seen in the neighborhood. gretchin: why don t we see more of these kinds of interviews. it must be a reason why the prosecution is looking at this. saying it is good for us, too. in that sense they will dissect it. there is an anticipation that mr. zimmerman will testify in his case. any juror who saw this and if he goes to trial and not testify, why didn t he testify under oath? he was not under oath.

this judge not to let a jury get this case and to believe him that he did reasonably fear for his life when he was caught in this confrontation with trayvon martin. how do you get behind that moment into a machine s head the way you would have to? well, listen, i think that the idea that you won t be able to present psychiatric testimony would be folly, because even though this is an average man s standard, what would an average man fear in terms of what would the intensity of that fear be, a average man has had a life history. if mr. zimmerman has had experiences that lead him to feel particularly threatened during fights, that bears on this moment as to whether he reasonably feared for his life. also, of course he has a gun, he s a community watchman. why is that? why is protecting and serving in a particular way resonating to that extent with him? is he on psychiatric medicines? does he have an impulse control disorder in the past? all these things weigh in on did
