Boring day so far. I would love to see that animation they were talking about. I personally wonder about this marijuana usage. Sure they should bring it up, but after encountering hundreds if not 1000's of people under the influence of marijuana, I have never encountered a hostile or aggressive one. That could play bad for the defense depending on who the prosecution brings on to counter this. I also wonder if they will bring that awful ME back on the stand who had the new opinion that it could have effected Martin?

Marijuana on it's own has a mellowing effect. But marijuana combined with formaldehyde (aka "wet") can produce a fairly aggressive behavior, especially in a provoked/confrontational situation.

Also known as "illy". See how I outstreeted you there? :)

Where did they say it was laced with something? I missed that if they did. Even those I have encountered with MJ dipped in PCP, ect have been mellow... I can see them trying to argue he wasn't thinking and maybe they have some background they will try to get in showing he is confrontational. 6 hours later? He isn't going to be showing much symptoms if any and most likely wouldn't even be arrestable for being under the influence or PI, depending on the specific state statute as he would need to be unable to care for his safety or the safety of others, and I just don't' see marijuana doing that 6 hours later. Now the synthetics can make people act bizzare, but he had the real stuff in his system. My opinion comes from dealing with people smoking dope over 2 decades while doing le work. Sure they will find some expert to counter that and then the pros will for the other side.

Zimmerman's account is more credible if Martin's past actions suggest that he would be prone to that type of response. It should be allowable as Zimmerman's account has not changed from his original statement and he had no way of knowing anything about Martin's past at the time in order to shape his story to match.
