Four heard mr. martin state that it was not his son. not that he kwiv indicated, not that hen couldnt tell, but he said this is not his son. this is evidence that was known to the prosecution, they decided not to call tracy martin to the stand for probably that precise reason, that they were going to have to deal with that inconsistency. my frustration is one ive had for a year, ben crump on the martin familys behalf stated to the media that the police were lying and that his client tracy martin...

Believe the most? and theres the issue of the medical examiner, who we heard from friday, who told the court he doesnt remember anything. a rare moment of emotion from george zimmerman in the courtroom as this week of testimony could see more family on the stand to testify on his behalf. friday zimmerman was visibly affected, listening to his uncle explain when he heard those highly scrutinized screams for help on a 911 audiotape. >> i said, that is george, and i stood up and looked at the tv. >...

Help on a 911 audiotape. >> i said, that is george. and i stood up and looked at the tv. >> reporter: also, zimmermans mother. >> do you know whose voice that was screaming in the background? >> yes, sir. >> and whose voice was that? >> reporter: my son george. >> and are you certain of that? >> because hes my son. >> reporter: it was a day of duelling testimonies between mothers. gladys zimmerman testified after s sybriana fulton testified what she heard after that fatal shot. >> man, that scre...

Miss fulton lost her son, miss zimmerman has sort of lost her son at least temporarily having to live in hiding for a year and facing a life imprisonment sentence based on the state trying to convict him of something. but both of the women just have to live with the belief it is, in fact, their son. theyre going to have to make a determination not based on what each mom says but on the other evidence, sort of the forensic evidence. >> six female jurors, five of whom are mothers, im sure sitting ...

Is that because she was overprepared? ill defer to you. did they do too much or uright? >> no. i i dont think they did too much. obviously, she is preparing for some time, but hes worked hand in hand with the prosecutors, and fwon over that with the testimony. she expects questions, because they have done plenty of mock testimonies with this witness, just as they do with most of their important witnesses, so i think that a lot of the emotion because of that. a lot of the emotion dissipated, howe...

So thats why during that interview, i said i wasnt sure. listening to it was clouded by shock and denial and sadness, and i didnt really want to believe that was him. >> today, the jury heard emotional testimony from trayvon mart knyou knows family. how will the six women who will decide zimmermans fate reacting to this? lets ask susan constantine. very emotional. a mother on the stand, brother on the stand. concluding with these two emotional witnesses and then you also have the defense, beginn...

Manslaughter. but the key question will be should he be held responsible and i think these mothers testimonies will be accepted, appreciated, understood. nothing will be held against either of these two mothers. >> let me play gladys zimmerman on the stand and then ive got a question for you out of it. >> were you able to hear that voice? >> yes, sir. >> in the background. >> yes. >> you heard, of course, a womans voice in the foreground, correct? >> yes, sir. >> do you know whose voice that was...

Jurors, five of whom as you mention, are mother, have determined which mother, you know, to believe, because both of the mothers think they heard the voice of their sons there and it seems as though, prosecution might have felt, maybe some gratification from the testimony of sabrina fulton, that perhaps of all the testimonies prior, the 38 testimonies thus far, this is going to be the one that sticks with the jurors, but then defense rolls out one of its first witnesses and it is the mother of g...
