daviss: He is trying to get under this kids nerve like he is getting on mine
Seventies: exactly, they do not want her testifying at the actual trial. These are impeachment hearings right now.
alt: you think that would "help" the prosecution Seventies? :?
Selma: It might make us feel better..but then we would have to watch them haul her off to jail
alt: yep Selma
Seventies: the bottom line is GZ admitted to all of this stuff. On the phone with the operator, at the police station, etc.
daviss: IMHO she is talking in her cultural language and they do not understand what she is actually saying
Seventies: I understand her just fine. They are in Florida how do they expect people to speak? Like NYers?
