Star witness in George Zimmerman trial tweeted about court case, getting high, drink driving and showed off her 'court nails'

The credibility of the state's star witness is expected to be called into question following a number of tweets she posted in which she talked about the death of Trayvon Martin, getting high, drink driving and her 'court nails'.

Rachel Jeantel took to the stand today at the George Zimmerman trial in Florida to testify about the phone conversation she had with her Trayvon moments before he was shot dead.

She denied the pair were boyfriend and girlfriend as they were previously described. Defense attorney Don West used the cross-examination to call her out on lies she had told before.



The 19-year-old Miami woman used her Twitter account to occasionally comment on the case saying things like, '16 months later, wowww I need a drink' and tweeted a picture of her 'court nails'.

The posts have since been deleted but the picture remained on her Facebook page.

According to the Smoking Gun , one deleted tweet linked to a sexually suggestive series of photos, while another included a link to a photo of liquor bottles with the caption: 'Wat [sic] will happen I mix everything uhmmmm.'

She cried in court today as she recounted the last conversation she had with Trayvon.



The 19-year-old told the court she asked the teen what the man looked like and he said he looked creepy, 'a creepy a** cracker'.



She said Trayvon told her he was going to go home but the man was still following him, saying 'Oh sh**, the n**** is still behind me'.

'I just told him to run,' Rachel told the court, adding that her friend was breathing heavily.



The pair then got cut off and when she called him back he told her he was back at his father's fiancee's house and he thought he had lost the man.

Testimony: Rachel said Trayvon told her he was going to try to lose the man and go home, but Zimmerman kept following him

Earlier this year, government lawyers were forced acknowledge she lied under oath when she claimed the reason she did not attend Martin’s funeral was due to being sick in hospital.



She admitted today she did not want to go because she didn't want to see his parents. 'I felt guilty...I was the last person that talked to their son', she said.

Friend: Rachel was the last person to talk to Trayvon Martin

When this lie was disclosed in an earlier court hearing back in March, she tweeted a number of things apparently related to the discovery.



'Jus got home n hear wat was going and I’m angry', she wrote, and 'remember who cause the funeral to happen keep it 100% Mr. a** hoe...Damn they p*ssed me off… and I’m sick too "HELL NAW".'

On February 26, the one-year anniversary of Trayvon's death, she tweeted '#RIP Tray', followed by ' Omg people calling n praying n sh*t lol I need a drink smoke and a pray my head killing me right now cannot wait when this day end'.

Two days earlier, she referred to getting high, drinking, smoking and drink driving: 'Lol we going to hell for smoke on Sunday I need some more drink,' one tweet said, then: 'I hope I dont hit no one tonight lord plz watch my driving'.

The picture of her 'court nails' was posted on Sunday and other tweets hinted towards preparations she was making for her appearance.



On June 16, a list of seven items she posted included the notations '3.get ready for count [sic]', '4.deal with the bull come with it', '5.try to have a natural life' and '7. I’m going need a lot of drinks for dis summer oh lord',



On her Facebook page, Jeantel is stated as having attended Miami Norland Senior High School and has 'studied criminal justice at Miami University'.
