Trayvon Martin’s mother abruptly left the courtroom when the tape with the screams was played in court.
The racially charged case began with fireworks as prosecutor John Guy opening the trial with the blunt and shocking words, “F***ing punks.”
Guy, quoting from Zimmerman’s phone call to police reporting a suspicious person the night of the shooting, continued: “These a**holes always get away.”
“Those were the words in the defendant’s head just moments before he pressed the pistol,” the prosecutor told the jury of six women.
Zimmerman, 29, is on trial for shooting death of Martin, an unarmed 17-year-old who was killed by Zimmerman in February 2012.
