I’m hanging over at Wagist and it looks like some commenters have found some critical evidence that discredits DDs phone call times in the Trayvon Martin case.

Guess what I just noticed?? The phone logs state that “The date and time for all call correspond to Pacific Time (PSD/PDT). !!!!!!!
more back and forth and then this:

goofey Central but not pacific
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Time_Zone
I thought of that but my point is that the times used for the “call” from dDeeDee was 7:12 P.M. and these are reportedly the ones given to ABC from Crump. So if this is true and correct that call was not from Trayvon as the call would be off by 3 hours, because Miami and Sanford are both in the eastern time zone..
Then this wrap up:

BY the Way I just called and talked to a Kimberly at T Mobile customer service. She replied to my question, “If I live in the Central time zone will my call records record and show on my bill as Pacific time? Answer: “Yes, we record all calls on Pacific time regardless of where you live”. Professed phone call from DEEDEE is a total fake.
I believe lawyer Crump who brought forward “DD” has some ‘splainin to do.

Subsequent commenters have shot it down – a T-Mobile support site notes that they don’t have time of day pricing for text, so all times for that are Pacific; they do have time of day pricing for calls, so they report those in the local time. However, the presentation on the bill is cryptic:

Advice from an attorney to his flawed witness:
“We’re going to hold you back as a material witness. Discovery be damned. You will be called ONLY if we think the case is going to be lost.”
“Listen: you keep you’re effing mouth shut. You hear? Go visit some relatives, out of state.”
“As to any affidavit or phone calls you made, we will deny they ever existed. It is standard practice to deny. We will deny the moon revolves around the earth – that the sun comes up in the east – and that we ever talked to you. Capiche?”
From memory, 35 years ago.
my grammar is getting atrocious – your effing mouth.
Tom,
The phone bills and the records of calls are timed differently. I’m watching this very closely and so far it holds up.
The pdf says:
The date and time for all calls corresponds to Pacific Time (PST/PDT)
It can be found on page 5 of the PDF.
Tom is usually more careful than that.
Well, this is what the T-Mobile support Q&A says:
“There seems to be a bug in the MyTmobile website. When I log in and look at calls I notice the calls reflect calls made in EDT, while Data information seems to be based on PDT. At the bottom of both pages are statements that the dates/times reflected are in Pacific time. As a reference for the call I used a call from my wife and it reflected EDT (which is where I am), however when I purposely did a large data download it was reflected in Pacific time. Anyone else notice this behavior when they log into their My Tmobile site?

It’s been like that for a while, Josh.
I was told by another T-Mobile person it’s because calls are translated to local time zone of where they’re made because of billing purposes, but data & texts don’t have different prices for peak and off-peak.”
I don’t even find that confusing – what the bill *says* is not what it means, hence the use of the word “bug” in the question.
Ever since I upgraded from MT to WordPress, I have been unable to figure out the time of my blog posts. It never seems to be right.
when I purposely did a large data download it was reflected in Pacific time.
