That trayvon martin was under the age of 18 and that this was about the heart of a grown man versus the heart of a child. that is something that is sort of -- trayvon martins age is something the prosecution has very much highlighted in these closing days. >> thats true. i think the point about the lies was an extremely important point for the prosecution. but lets keep in mind that george zimmerman is not on trial for lying. hes on trial for murder or manslaughter. i would have liked to have se...

Closing argument. radio silence. crickets on that point. i have to conclude that the prosecution changed their mind about talking about race in this trial, that it was a very sensitive subject. they probably went back and forth about how they wanted to handle it. perhaps ultimately they said with a mostly white jury, maybe they conclude doesnt want to think about race, doesnt want to inject race into the case, theyre not going to go there. >> thats why with the flag, they raised it. i wanted the...

Innocence beyond a reasonable doubt, now we really get into what happened. you can argue, the state all it wants, that george really wanted to be a cop and georges calls to law enforcement in the past just had some seething anger build- build-up. but dont assume that. prove it, believe it. dont prove it, it just doesnt exist. dont connect those dots if theyve not been connected to you beyond a reasonable doubt by the state. so now lets look at what really happened that night. and lets see the gr...

Said to you george was frustrated. oh, i wanted that one! damn! darn! the stucco guy got him instead! not going to happen again. are you kidding me? are you actually kidding me that the state attorneys office representing the state is making that allegation to you? that that is ill will because somebody else caught a burglar? okay, great. just tie it together, please? you got two dots and they are this far away. just give me a line. give me something. stucco guy caught him. george is frustrated....

Trayvon martin was up to no good, and that is what led to he is death. this want at 2:00 in the morning or partying somewhere. not that that would in any way minimize it but he was just doing a normal every day thing. y -- he went to the store, got something, got some skitles, tea or drink, he was wearing a hoodie and last i heard, thats not against the law. in this mans eyes he was up to no good. he presumed something that was no true. >> tom, do you think that the prosecutor did enough there t...

Must find it in that instance, consistent with innocence and give mr. zimmerman the benefit of it. and, of course, that when you connect up the dots, if you will, when you pile on all of these circumstances, they must be so conclusive that it can only indicate proof beyond a reasonable doubt of the guilt. if the circumstances are susceptible of two reasonable constructions, one indicating guilt, the other innocence, you must accept that construction indica indicating evidence. indeed under the c...

He put the pieces of the puzzle together, some are saying why did he put all of those witnesses on who were adverse to his case? he said you know why i put them on? you could line up and say there is no reason why a 17-year-old boy was dead. >> you think he successfully connected the dots? >> i think he put together the best possible links to the dots. im not saying they will win this case, because it is weak to begin with, but with what he had to work with he did a brilliant job. >> the emotion...

Second-degree murder under florida law. i do not think theyve carried that burden at all. thats my legal view of the case. when i say that, what i mean by that is, have they proven it beyond a reasonable doubt based on the evidence presented to the jury? this jury does not know everything about mr. zimmermans past and will not. so based on the evidence presented, i do not think theyve connected those dots and defeated the doubts. the manslaughter goes to the justification and the murkiness of th...

Did you make it? he said yeah, it is really cool, they watch over the dead. >> falcons to watch over the dead. and a map marked with dots. it was the information keene thought would surely lead to the exact location of tricias body. in that moment, did you think this was my ticket to freedom? >> i did, because i thought this is it. i have solid confessions out of him. we know specific details. we know how he has done it now. >> keene believed he had his answer, that he would soon be free. that h...

Up lots and lots of things that you say might be threats and none of them are, people lose confidence in the data. the old crying wolf syndrome. >> even big brother faces roadblocks. if the government wants to track you. itsabili its ability to gather data like at this massive nsa data center your honor construction in utah will allow them to do it. >> that being said, people should be realistic. no human reader looking at e-mails. its impossible. the human will only look at things interesting o...
