George Zimmerman’s attorney decided to tell a terrible joke to open things up at the Trayvon trial, while the prosecution used Zimmerman’s own words to show the warped nature of the defendant and looked at DNA evidence to dispel ideas of self-defense. Retired FBI Special Agent Jim Clemente returns to Crime Time to react to the court footage and talk about Michael Hastings and government pressure on journalists.
