My thoughts:
I was surprised to see Tracey Martin on the Defense witness list and not on the State's list. Watching as an "in-home" juror, I am sure the jurors seated were also wondering the same thing. The state could have called Mr. Martin and let him speak about what he stated the day he heard the 911 call, however, leaving him off the stand left many questions unanswered.
With two seasoned police investigators testifying what they heard Mr. Martin stated, only leaves the door open for the jurors to believe or not believe Mr. Martin. My heart did go out for Mr. Martin as you can see the pain of losing his son is still at the surface of his life.
It really bothered me to learn that the 911 call was played in a room, officiated my the mayor, without the presence of the Chief of Police or any Law Enforcement officials present. The tape should have been played individually to each family member rather than have a room full of family listening to the tape.
Attorney Crump, who seems to be the leader of the pack, hopefully will be a defense witness as I personally felt, based on just a little bit that I have seen, really blew up so much of this case, when it wasn't necessary.
Adam Pollack, described George Zimmerman's capability at the MMA gym indicating that basically George did not have the capability of punching a \punching bag. George was at the gym to do exercise and to lose weight, of which, George did lose a lot of weight before the incident.
The jurors will learn on Tuesday that Trayvon Martin had marijuana in his system. The mothers on the jurors will be asking themselves "where did a 17 year old get marijuana?" I am also sure the mothers on the jurors are even asking how Trayvon got two tattoos, since he is under age to get a tattoo. Although, I am not sure if a parent can give permission for an under-age child to get a tattoo.
The most heart-felt testimony on Monday was from John Donnelly. John helped explain to the jurors the scream of fear and how it would sound even coming from a 250 pound male, whose cry would even sound like a woman. John and his wife, helped support George and his wife with money, food and clothing for George, especially after George put on so much weight.
Of course, this cynical world will look at it as a motivate of some form or another, however, I didn't see it that way. Someone has to help George and his family, because his life stopped. Just like with the Martin family, their lives stopped when Trayvon died. People rallied around to support them financially as they fight for Justice for Trayvon, and a select few rallied around Justice for George.
Looking forward to Tuesday ....
