It doesn't make sense for the Executive office to remain neutral. In order to execute the law faithfully, one must make a decision on who is guilty, and then present their case in front of a judge/jury. The judicial system must remain neutral, not the Executor.
Furthermore, the DOJ is within the Executive branch...are you saying the DOJ must present both sides remain neutral also? If so, the DOJ would never be able to charge anyone with a crime, given that it has to remain "neutral".Comment

I didn't catch that.
Okay, so I popped open one of the files:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/151071226/...g-MAR-30-Rally
This seems to be a travel voucher for "technical assistance to the city of Sanford, event organizers, and law enforcement agencies for march and rally on March 31st".
What does this mean? Did the US government stage an event? Did the US government put it together? Or did they send a legal rep to make sure this rally didn't turn into a riot?
The emails look scary....
http://www.scribd.com/doc/153213030/All-Emails-Combined
The first in is from Politico which contains a very public statement from Obama? No surprise there.
The second email is from an activist which seems to be sent from a gmail account that has nothing to do with the US goverment.
The third email is an automated feed from the mayor's office repeating local news... It's quotes from news sources, not statements from any government office.
The fourth one is the same activist...
The firth one is from a yahoo address that seems to be a private group at a government "center" which is most likely used for everything from MADD to Boy Scouts.
I don't have time to read all of this, but five emails in and I'm not seeing a smoking gun that says "The US government sent a rep down to orginize a rally".
Seems to me the DOJ could have multiple reasons to send someone to Sanford when a case has become so large that it's being broadcast nationally from start to finish.

* all laws are based on innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. that's fundamental.
2. our system is also based on an alleged criminal to be tried in a court of law, not on television in a court of public opinion.
c. finally, our system is based on a judge or jury finding the person on trial guilty or innocent based on the testimony and evidence presented during that trial. not presented before the trial by a 3rd party on television, during a speech.

I agree with all those points...but it doesn't speak to your assertion that the Executive branch must remain neutral.
Like I said before, only the Judicial branch must remain neutral. The Executive branch, by it's nature, must NOT remain neutral. How else is the DOJ going to charge people with crimes if it must remain neutral at the same time?
(btw, as to point #3, I don't believe the President's comments were entered into evidence anyhow.)Last edited by TCLGirls; 07-11-2013, 12:39 PM.Comment

i'm saying that by going on television the executive branch perverted the process. their job is to present their case in court, not on tele before the trial even starts. sure they are there to prosecute, but in court.
if i were a shark defense attorney i would be all over the fact i can only choose from a tainted jury pool. zimmerman killed obama's would-be only son.

in fact, in thinking about it, i would even strategize my defense on this issue based entirely on you being exactly on point.
the president is leading a lynch mob to prosecute zimmerman on television without due process since obama is in charge of executing the law/head of the doj.
i'd nitpick the crap outta that in the public forum!

But the Executive Branch has freedom of speech just as much as the defense attorneys. It would be unfair to muzzle the Executive branch, yet allow the defense attorneys to go on TV regularly like they did. Furthermore, it's the Judiciary's duty to protect the process, not the Executor. If the judge felt that outside comments were "perverting the process", she could have placed a gag order on the case.i'm saying that by going on television the executive branch perverted the process. their job is to present their case in court, not on tele before the trial even starts. sure they are there to prosecute, but in court.

Don't even need sheets to spot the racists in this thread... 
If you listen to what Obama said on this matter, back on March 23rd (in answer to a question at a press conference), the President merely stated that he has empathy for any parent that has had a child killed by gun violence, and that they should expect that the case would be fully reviewed, and tried if the DA felt that a trial was necessary.
Mentioning that Trayvon might look like his son if he had a son, was simply Obama pointing out that Trayvon Martin could have been anyone's son, even his, but apparently to closed/warped minds, it meant something entirely different.

That wouldn't work, because due process for criminal cases is a standard only required in a court-of-law. Due process is not required outside of the court proceedings here.in fact, in thinking about it, i would even strategize my defense on this issue based entirely on you being exactly on point.

Obama inviting that police officer and professor to the white house, is what makes his weighing in on this case inappropriate, (not even getting into his being the first black president).Comment

it absolutely would work. arguing law isn't about arguing law, it's about persuasion.
of course due process is not required outside a courtroom, i didn't think i had to specify i was referring to courtroom processes and a defendant having the right to an untainted jury pool. and i can bring in dozens of experts that can dissect that speech down into the most sophisticated data you've ever seen showing its influence on masses people.

Again your plan wouldn't work because the President's speech was not entered into trial evidence in the first place...so there is nothing to dissect.it absolutely would work. arguing law isn't about arguing law, it's about persuasion.

Furthermore, the defense already agreed and were satisfied with the current jurors. Obviously ZIM felt they were untainted enough to proceed with trial or else they would have made a motion to change trial venue.Comment

my plan would absolutely work, i never said this was about testimony. i would bring in experts into the court of public opinion, where the game is being played, where obama felt the need to jump in, and it absolutely would work. public opinion gets swayed by shiny displays of beer, getting them confused on a legal matter is a no-brainer.
furthermore doesn't really matter here, i am and always have been speaking of my own views on the matter not on how the case played out. certainly the defense had a smorgasbord of things to choose from to hinge their defense on, bypassing obama's lack of discretion isn't a big deal. nevertheless, it was there for the picking to sway public opinion, they may have even.
again, i'm not saying obama doesn't have a right to open his trap and yap it, i'm saying it's behavior unbecoming of a president in this case and it also left the defense a big opportunity to bash the prosecution in a public forum, from the top down, if they so chose.Comment
-
it could be grounds for a mistrial. if the president being a very influential person can create bias towards one side or the other it taints the idea of innocent until proven guilty. nixon's comment on the charles manson trial comes to mind. there wasn't a mistrial because manson had poor representation but it should of been.you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..Comment
-
oh, also, the speech isn't evidence, i would bring it up during jury selection process, if necessary & makes sense in light of my other jury pool selection strategies and my client could afford it.Comment

I agree. I think that the president is a very smart man that knows exactly what he is doing. I think that what he, and the DOJ are doing is to stir up a bunch of crap for all of us to pay attention to, while they are spying on our emails, phone calls and internet browsing, putting video drones in the air over us, giving themselves the power to shut down the internet on the word of the president, closing more abilities of the citizens to escape with their own money, enacting new aspects of the NDAA, getting up to more war shenanigans overseas, etc, etc, etc....
This has F@#$% all to do with race or justice or the law. It has everything to do with keeping Americans divided, and distracted.
The responses to my post are pure proof that it is working perfectly!

What a hoot it will be to listen to you vent on GFY for 7+ more years if Hillary gets elected in 2016.
I did not follow the trial closely. It sounds like Zimmerman was well represented. Now it will be for a jury to decide.
Trayvon Martin
Birth: Feb. 5, 1995
Death: Feb. 26, 2012
Sanford
Seminole County
Florida, USA
Trayvon was a junior at Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High School. He loved horses, sports, video games and dreamed of becoming a pilot. He is survived by his parents. His funeral was held March 3, 2012, in Miami. More than 1,000 people, including classmates and friends, attended his viewing. May he rest in eternal peace.

I am not trying to play gotcha with you...just trying to figure out what you are trying to argue in the first place. First I thought you, assuming ZIM's defense role, where going to argue the inappropriateness of the President's speech by having expert witnesses dissect the speech in a court of law. That's why I responded that your plan wouldn't work...and I gave you the reasons why.
Now if all you are saying is that you simply want to dissect the President's speech in front of the general public, outside of a court proceeding, then that's fine...no one is preventing you from doing that...have the freedom of speech to do so. You don't have to follow the rules of a trial court.Comment

Has anyone in this thread mentioned yet that race has nothing to do with this criminal case? The only "profiling" spoken of has been his use of "these assholes always get away" and "fucking punks" which go to his state of mind certainly, but not racism.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.

You will hear the same things from me no matter who wins, unless it is a libertarian that is actually true to his or her beliefs and actually follows the constitution and libertarian ideals.... A Republican will be just as bad. All the Reps and Dems care about is growing their own power.
Of course the fact that those "paranoid delusions" are actually happening should probably not be mentioned here.... so never mind.

The suspects in the Zimmerman case? There was only one and he looks kind of Caucasian but is Hispanic. I'm pretty well versed with the details of the case. I think he should probably get manslaughter since that's been allowed in as a lesser charge (although it carries the same penalty.. but the jury doesn't get told that, so might not know it).
As for drug testing.. I have no idea. I expect to be drug tested if I apply for a job at Sears, but probably not if I shoot someone. Don't ask me to understand it.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.Comment

I think it's true that Obama has a bad track record when he chimes in on cases and issues.
Beer summit, Arizona "papers please" law, and this case. While I don't think it matters if he wants to say Trayvon was at the age where he could have been his own son, I certainly don't think it helped anyone so he should probably have just kept his mouth shut.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.Comment

He is supposed to serve the people and the constitution. He is not "at the top" like some tin pot dictator. He has responsibilities that come with the office. He can't just do whatever he wants, and he shouldn't just do whatever he wants. Sure, he seems to be acting like that, with all of his little "kill lists" etc.... but still.....

Have you never heard of jury tampering? Attempting to taint the jury like Obama did can certainly be called jury tampering, though hard to prove.
By the way, the Executive branch isn't above the law...
There is a reason that laws like "Due Process of Law" exist...
And Obama commenting on one side of a case before the trial even began -- or even during a trial, especially if the jury isn't sequestered -- is most definitely an attempt to taint and sway the public opinion of the trial...A fundamental, constitutional guarantee that all legal proceedings will be fair and that one will be given notice of the proceedings and an opportunity to be heard before the government acts to take away one's life, liberty, or property. Also, a constitutional guarantee that a law shall not be unreasonable, Arbitrary, or capricious.
The constitutional guarantee of due process of law, found in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, prohibits all levels of government from arbitrarily or unfairly depriving individuals of their basic constitutional rights to life, liberty, and property. The due process clause of the Fifth Amendment, ratified in 1791, asserts that no person shall "be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." This amendment restricts the powers of the federal government and applies only to actions by it. The Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, ratified in 1868, declares,"[N]or shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law" (§ 1). This clause limits the powers of the states, rather than those of the federal government.

i see, i was expanding on my original position, that it's unbecoming of a president to speak to such matters like he did. as i thought about it, it occurred to me that turnabout is fair play in this regard and obama really did give the defense something to make a stink over, which is how i look at defenses/defense attorneys, all they need to do is throw a wrench in the plan, anywhere, client walks.
ahh, that's how it went.Comment

Actually the opposite is true. His position requires that he lead in the way that is best for the country, not the way he feels personally.
It is quite amazing that you do not understand why he should keep his mouth shut on the subject.
