walking while black - Trayvon Martin

[username]

There's a hearing regarding the admissibility of an animated recreation of events, based on the timing of 911 calls and defense witness testimony (if I'm following correctly). The defense wants the animation presented to the jury.

I would be surprised if that animation is allowed in. First, it supposedly depicts the first encounter which nobody witnessed. It doesn't show T jumping out of a bush or something; just the two walking up to each other and it's based on ear-witness testimony as to where the two *might* have been at first encounter. Then purportedly it jumps numerous feet to where the scuffle took place (again, without any explanation of what happened in between). The prosecutor questioned the person who created the animation...."did they teleport from the one place to another"? The animation is based largely on G's version of events (absent T jumping out from some hedges or something). It's anyone's guess if it's accurate...it shouldn't be allowed.
