Defense has to do what it has to do. That’s their job, but they could end up alienating the jury attacking a woman whose son was killed. A mom’s going to know what her son’s cries and screams sound like - like if they fall and skin their knee, or even if they get into fights.

Thing is, he’s not the one on trial, and if defense goes off on whether Martin’s had other fights, that might backfire with her retorting that her son isn’t on trial and isn’t there to defend himself against defense smears, and all those other fights were ones where he didn’t end up shot and killed by Zimmerman.
