Don West, the defense attorney representing George Zimmerman in a trail in which he is accused of murdering 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, is in damage control mode after a photo has emerged of he and his daughter enjoying celebratory ice cream cones after a day in court.

This is the photo reverberating around the Twittersphere today. It’s a shot of Molly West, her sister and Zimmerman attorney Don West enjoying ice cream in the car apparently after prosecution witness and Trayvon Martin’s friend Rachel Jeantel testified, or so it has been alleged.

Anyone who watched the last two days of testimony in the Zimmerman trial knows that West had a difficult time getting Jeantel to repeat words he tried desperately (and succeeded in doing at times) to put in her mouth. In addition, Jeantel spoke very low, had bad grammar (ebonics) and expressed attitude and impatience at times.

This apparently means she’s “stupid,” if the conjectures about Molly West’s now deleted Instagram photo are correct.

As you can guess, online users are not amused and have been throwing the “stupid” word back at the Wests for this inappropriate photo…especially since Ms. West’s father “killed it” during the murder trial of a 17-year-old (Zimmerman was charged with second-degree murder). Check out some reactions:

“Y’all hear about Don West’ daughter photo….she talkin bout stupidity but that’s the dumbest thing you can do when a case still in progress”

“@Mollywestttt No, Molly West, you clearly have NOT ‘beaten stupidity’- you’ve enshrined yourself and father #DonWest in the Hall of Fame”

“First Don West’s knock knock joke and now this stupidity. Privilege comes in many shades. @PiaGlenn @lolojones”
