Zimmerman Prosecution Star Witness Can't Read Letter She 'Wrote'

A teenage friend of Trayvon Martin was forced to admit today in the George Zimmerman murder trial that she did not write a letter that was sent to Martin's mother describing what she allegedly heard on a phone call with Martin moments before he was shot.

In a painfully embarassing moment, Rachel Jeantel was asked to read the letter out loud in court.

"Are you able to read that at all?" defense attorney Don West asked.

Jeantel, head bowed, eyes averted whispered into the court microphone, "Some but not all. I don't read cursive."

It sent a hush through the packed courtroom. http://abcnews.go.com/US/george-zimmerman-witness-read-letter-wrote-shooting/story?id=19504826

How can a person write a letter and then NOT be able to read it? Is she lying or "refusing" to read it? Refusing to comply with a lawful order by a Judge or the Court is in Contempt and a jailable offense.

the defense attorney I am sure knew this was coming, that she can not read and "fed" her the word cursive, she even looked unsure when she spoke the word. Her being unable to read is not necessarily a reflection of her IQ, she just was not taught. most state run public school grads can not even read...being uneducated and born into poverty does not automatically mean stupid. Now, her morals are questionable if she was not truthful...what kind of pressures of promises was she given to put herself in this position.

Isn't that "contempt"?

Zimmerman is innocent! End of story!! Next case!!

Can she read, "perjury", or "obstruction of justice"? How about "contempt"? Or, "lying niggroid beotch"?

Is there any REAL evidence to suggest that Zimmerman should be on trial....other than the fact that Holder demands it?
