That's what I'm looking forward to. ^^^^^
I'm listening to Mr. O'Mara but halfheartedly, if I pay too close attention he's liable to be a buzzkill.
So far, O'Mara's not addressing how/why his client's action constitute legal self defense. He's poking at the prosecution's case and witnesses and talking about George's physical weakness again. Reasonable doubt.
The state did the same thing regarding the defendant's statements and the defense's case; par for the course.
I think O'Mara, however, will get to laying out George's story, point by point, and end his arguments with a solid version of events; something that the state hasn't done.
The state doesn't have an alternate version that its willing to present, so Guy's rebuttal will probably just be an attempt to leave the jury with a reminder of why they should doubt George Zimmerman before they go into deliberations. IMO. Still, it will be interesting to hear the final words he leaves the jury to consider.
