The jury on the Zimmerman trial will return a "not guilty" on the
2nd
degree murder charge and a "guilty" of manslaughter.

The prosecution put a serious dent in the defense arguments today
when
they called the Army JAG lawyer who taught a course that Zimmerman
took in a Jr. College. The course covered Stand Your Ground laws.

In a cable TV (Fox News) interview Zimmerman was asked if he knew
of
or was aware of Stand Your Ground laws prior to the shooting of
Martin.
Zimmerman answered that he had *not* heard of them or had any
knowledge of them.

But, he had received an "A" in the course given by the JAG lawyer.
Pinocchio time.

Are you giving Zimmerman too much credit now for intelligence?
Shouldn't the "JAG' lawyer be
asked about all of the grades that were given in the course that
Zimmerman took?

The Judge would not allow it. She only allowed testimony that could
relate to Zimmerman's prior knowledge of the Stand Your Own Ground
statutes. Her reasoning is that it could have a direct bearing on the
case, which obviously it did.
