I'm not sure. After Prosecution rests, Friday, and the Judge rules against the Motion to Dismiss, which is always the case, the Defense will bring it's witnesses.
Because the Prosecution brought in some information about GZ's past history, i.e., the DV charges, which were mutual and charges dropped, I am thinking he now can do that, but I am not sure.
At the outset, the Judge wasn't allowing texts, etc. concerning, TM. If it had been any other Judge, they might have. We shall see.
I don't know why they would think the toxicology report is not admissible.
TM is not on trial, but this history could paint where his mind was at, at the time of the altercation.
I didn't read the texts and am asking for verification, but I am understanding that TM and DeeDee had been fighting throughout the day, TM texts that was hiding drugs to bring into Sanford and to buy more while there, that he needs to stop fighting even though he knows he won't, someone stating he needed to stop or he will get a bullet in his chest some day, among other texts.
Here is what the Judge ruled is off limits for TM, but ONLY in opening statements. I think O'Mara will bring up the other information later. This past week was about George. It is touchy for both sides.
