If memory serves, the prosecutor and defense agreed to not discuss the
particulars of the case outside of the courtroom.

So, how would you know what "they" have come up with?

Because they have been in a court room, under oath and said they had
no evidence about the three main points of the case.

Was Zimmerman heading back to his truck? (breaking off any alleged
"pursuit")
Did Martin approach Zimmerman from behind? (eliminating the claim that
Zimmerman "confronted" Martin)
Did Martin punch Zimmerman first? (establishing self defense)

All three were answered "no" when asked if they had any evidence to
dispute Zimmerman's story.

I am not sure what evidence they have that would be important after
that.

O'Mara has eliminated "pursuit", "confronted" and established a
presumption of self defense.

In our court system the prosecution has the burden of proof. They have
to prove the defendant's claim of self defense is wrong.

Like I said to the "I" guy/girl, they have one more bite at this
apple, at the immunity hearing. If they don't cough up this mysterious
evidence there, the whole thing is over.

The only winners in this case will be the lawyers.

The "I" guy/girl is the old Nom De Plume. Remember how frustrated you
got, trying to talk sense to her?
