the history of interest in topics of violence and describing one's fighting prowess is highly relevant when the case is about a fight and who initiated it
Are you arguing that the judge was wrong not to let evidence of Zimmerman's violent past be introduced?
I never argued that. I was arguing that the evidence that was hidden was obviously likely to influence the consideration of the prosecution's argument to the defendant's benefit, and by the law all such evidence must be turned over to the defense. On the contrary, there's no law that any evidence that might make the defendant look worse must be allowed.
