Matters in this case is first of all jury selection, then what do the witnesses say, and are they going to call george zimmerman. >> jeff, i want to play another clip of the prosecutor, john guy, laying out what he says are george zimmermans lies. lets listen. >> you will learn that thats when he began to spin that tangled web of lies. for example, he told the police that it was just after he hung out with shawn, the 911 dispatcher, that trayvon martin approached him, confronted him, said a coup...

Because china wanted him out of there and they sent him out. this is well beyond the legal system now, this is completely a matter of foreign policy, of intelligence, of diplomacy, and russias going to do whats in russias interest now with this guy, and that presumably includes taking everything in his briefcase and making copies of it. why wouldnt they? theyd be crazy not to. >> theres been a lot of outrage in some quarters, government quarters certainly, against snowden and outrage over russia...

Revelations, these were awkward, but they were not as far reaching and damaging as we thought, there were a number of public statements like that, so is this being overplayed? shouldnt -- i mean, shouldnt people in the media be skeptical of the government automatically saying, this guys going to have blood on his hands? >> no, absolutely -- i should tell you, because its a technical program, the amount, the loss of research and development are technological advantage is very difficult to calcula...

I couldnt look away. you combine that with this really effective courtroom style, and i think what was so surprising, at least to me, ive been there since jury selection. this was a prosecutor that was sort of in the background. weve always heard about bernie, always there, and assumed he would take charge. this john guy came out of nowhere, and really stole the show. i think it was a home run for him today. >> were going to leave it there, mark geragos, jean, thanks very much, sunny as well. up...

You saw them lock eyes with that prosecutor and they never let up for the entire 30 minutes that he made his presentation, their eyes were really glued on listening to john guy and layout the whole argument. he captured their attention and held it. don west, not the same story for the defense. >> and held it for 30 plus minutes, whereas for don west, he went on for more than three hours. how did zimmerman appear today? one of the things the defense made a point of mentioning was his huge weight ...

Statement, and jurors later on said that was helpful. so i dont think you can gauge anything or make any great statements or conclusions by this. i will tell you that i dont think youre going to see west do the closing. i think this was mark omara saying you have been working on the case, you do the opening, ill do the close. and ultimately it is not going to matter because all that matters in this case is first of all jury selection, then what do the witnesses say, and are they going to call ge...
