Fox News host Gregg Jarrett says that George Zimmerman has already been punished for the killing of Trayvon Martin because he looks like hes put on a hundred pounds.
During Mondays coverage of jury selection, Jarrett and Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle observed that Zimmerman had gained weight since his arrest in April 2012.
He does look like a different guy, Jarrett remarked. It looks like hes put on a hundred pounds. Look, he has been in hiding and he fears for his life, and there have been all kinds of death threats. And, you know, he cant go anywhere, cant get out and get exercise.
Probably suffering from stress and anxiety, Guilfoyle added.
You eat when youre under stress and pressure and stuff like that, Jarrett agreed. So, you know, hes already been punished to some extent. Well wait and see whether a Jury punishes him further.
This is an individual that was trying to do some civic duty by being on the community watch, Guilfoyle opined. That was the purpose of why he was there that night.

(50,254 posts)(for those too young to remember this, when White was tried for killing Harvey Milk-the first openly gay elected official in the U.S., serving as a member of the SF Board of Supervisors- and George Moscone-the sittingmayor off SF and one of Milk's closest political allies-in 1979, his attorneys argued that he was rendered temporarily insane by his frequent consumption of processed junk foods. It more or less worked, as White essentially walked on that case).

(2,682 posts)wonders if his weight-gain is an attempt by the defense to make him look incapable of chasing Martin or being a threat to him. Part of their plan to demonize Martin.

Bards will sing of the weight gain of Zimmerman and children will clutch their mother's breast in fear.

Makes one wonder if that's O'Mara's plan.
I couldn't gain a hundred pounds if i tried in a year. unless i MEANT to. 50 pounds tops. And i tend to gain weight easily.
Or am i thinking too conspiratorially?
