Thread Name: BS: George Zimmerman defense-' Evidence withheld'
Subject: RE: BS: Zimmerman defense-' Evidence withheld'
""Nor did the judge admit phone and text evidence that showed Martin had tried to sell an illegal firearm, school evidence that he was once suspended for having unexplained women's gold jewelry in his bookbag, or that he'd texted a friend that a recent fight had been no fun because "the dude didn't bleed enough for me.""

The judge did allow evidence of Martin's use of marijuana, but not of Zimmerman's domestic and the fact that he had used this self defence thing before in similsr circumstances when faced with prosecution.

Either both should have been allowed, or neither.

Eight of Zimmerman's friends were allowed to state that the voice calling for help was Zimmerman's.

Although Martin's parents did testify, two professional voice recognition experts who gave their opinion that the voice belonged to the younger man, were not allowed to do so.

You see that as perfect balance. I see it as a black and white example of discrimination.
