I guess the passport issue explains the new attorney.

Except that the quote you just linked to, isn't what you put in quotation marks originally.
http://forums.randi.org/showthread.p...89#post8335089
Quote:
What the judge was telling O'mara, was that a judge can't decide if Zimmerman violated that section or if he was making an innocent mistake based *only* on O'mara speculating on what Zimmerman might have been thinking... he has to have Zimmerman there speaking for himself. Your wishful thinking is just that until such time as Zimmerman tells the judge something directly. |

I don't trust de la Rionda, for obvious reasons. I would like to hear the tapes to see if the dollar signs are actually in the recording, or implied. (Not that not wanting to talk about having thousands of dollars aloud while in jail is incriminating.) Also, I can't believe they actually were trying to trick anyone by saying if the bail is "15, pay the 15."
Clearly, sometime between the 16th and the 20th, they changed their minds about using the internet money. O'Mara appears to have been blindsided by this, so there may be nothing to it. It was clear they knew they were being recorded. |

No, I'm laughing because you actually took many posts to attempt to point out I 'butchered a quote'...at one point saying I made it up...and because I posted directly what I thought I heard from the hearing...and had not been in print yet -- It's this big cause of concern for you - when my error was the difference between this:
Me: "Does your client get to sit there like a potted plant and lead us down the primrose path????" Judge: "Does your client get to sit there like a potted palm and let you lead me down the primrose path?" Yeah, that's laughable. And very funny *this* is where you chose to shoot your arrows. lol. |

Anyone want to comment on this article versus what really happened today? It says like GZ was caught in "cryptic conversations about his second passport" with his wife. http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Justice...nfluence-trial It also states matter of factly that he'll likely stay in jail until the trial.

I don't recall the judge saying the "Dude lied". I recall the judge being upset because Zimmerman just sat there while his wife said they didn't have any money. That is why I asked you if you thought it was possible Zimmerman thought he had the right to remain silent during the bond hearing. Here's another chance for you to answer.

As Seminole County Circuit Court Judge Kenneth Lester said- "And he can’t sit back and obtain the benefit of a lower bond or circumstances based upon those material falsehoods. That’s what they were. So at this time, revoke his bond, place him on no bond status. Find that good cause exists based upon the material misrepresentations that the court relied upon. Order him to surrender himself within 48 hours to the sheriff of Seminole county," Read more: http://globalgrind.com/news/george-z...#ixzz1waIzf0qH |

That may be not be a direct quote from the judge, but he certainly indicated he thought something dishonest had taken place.
Rare Truth's jubilation over this development may be rubbing some posters the wrong way, but the underlying point is valid. A blatant deception took place, and it places Zimmerman's credibility into serious doubt. |

Katie, I don't think we are on the same page here. Please go back and read my original question, then your response which did not answer my question and addressed something totally different in the article, then my response that quoted the portion of the article my original question was about, and now another response from you that again has nothing to do with my question?

Bolding mine:
I can't believe that continues to fly with judges. You can change the file dates with about two clicks if you have the right software. Easily obtainable, easy to use, and completely free. All three are easily changed. Date Created. Date Modified. Date Accessed. To use them for evidence of something is insane. Even if the judge trusts the person who's computer it was. That doesn't mean the computer wasn't compromised. |

At the bond hearing --
.................... O'Mara: This is my client's current passport, the only passport that he has. It does expire May of 2012, but I did want to acknowledge it and surrender it to the court at this time. Lester: Thank you. .............. Today: Sorry, your honor. My lying client ********** me over again. can we get a do-over? lol. |

I don't think there is any evidence there was a "blatant deception". Zimmerman's wife was ready to put up 100k for bond, and thought that was what the money was for. Later, for reasons we don't know, her and Z changed their minds and went to their relatives for bond money.
The money certainly wasn't a secret because everyone around here knew about it, just not how much. |
