The reports (with are taken with a grain of salt anyway) said Zimmerman's blood was not found on the scene or on the victim. The forensics won't come out until the tactfully trial and that's probably what will decide the case.
What on earth are you talking about?

You can't be serious! You believe the nonsense spewed here?
And people like George Zimmerman who decide they're entitled to play judge, jury and executioner; he didn't have a bit of trouble passing judgement on Trayvon Martin, with no sign that Martin was engaged in any criminal activity. Zimmerman doesn't pass that "purity" test himself, but that doesn't stop people from choosing to overlook his legal problems and try to blame a dead teen instead. Where is the compassion for a kid who won't go to prom, graduate high school, attend college or marry? If we're going to live in a country where it's acceptable to kill someone because they've bested you in a fist fight, there will be a sharp rise in such cases and more deaths as a result.
There you go just like I posted. Convicting somebody BEFORE the trial where the facts will be presented. Look in the mirror.... you are playing judge and jury just like you accuse Zimmerman.
These threads are the same every time. I can't believe we still have people in here saying that Trayvon was trespassing or scoping houses. There is no evidence of this. I guess this is what some of you think every time you see a young black boy walking.
George Zimmerman releasing this picture was to get his supporters to get riled up and donate more money. Looks like it is working in his favor. Personally, I am still of the opinion that he had no business following and confronting Trayvon Martin for simply looking suspicious to him. You don't get to harass and scare people and then claim self defense when they fight back.
For those of you that keep referring to Trayvon Martin as a thug, need I remind you that it was George Zimmerman who was arrested for assualting an officer and domestic violence? While you brush this fact under the rug, you believe what you hear on blogs about Trayvon Martin. The judge and jury will determine Zimmerman's fate. Calling Trayvon Martin a thug and making things up isn't going to change that. It is sad that there is so much hate and people condoning murder here.
So....... how about waiting for the "Factsplease"........ since you don't have all the facts.
You can't be serious! You believe the nonsense spewed here?
That's hilarious!!!
So were you lying when you said Martin pounded him and bashed his head in? Or are you telling the truth but the test of the pro-Zimmerman camp spewing nonsense?

Yeah because the whole point of posting a news story on an online discussion forum is to wait for the trial...
... because we all know that when the case goes to court the judge is going to pull up this thread and present it to the jury....

Cooper cannot even back up his claim that witnesses "clammed up" because of fear of the "Black Panthers" (all three of them) and some sort of "retribution" from others when this case came to the attention of the public. Some people just like to talk a lot and never bother to have any supporting documentation for their claims.

The EMT's that arrived at the scene did report cleaning up Zimmerman before he was taken to the Police station for questioning. The photo recently released clearly shows that there was a lot of bleeding.

Yes I read all of the posts and started commenting about half way back.

My point, which apparently went over your head, is Who, with any credibility, has said that "Martin nearly beat him to death"? No "CREDIBLE" witnesses or officials have said anything of the sort. Zimmerman said he was being beaten so badly he was in fear for his life. And all of the available evidence clearly points to the fact that Martin beat him badly, but how do you measure "nearly to death". There is no yardstick capable of measuring that.
What law do you think they're talking about in the link you posted if it's not the Stand Your Ground law?
It is called "Self Defense". Have you never heard of that?
No where in that linked article that I posted does it even mention "Stand your ground". Did you read it and make any effort to comprehend it? What it does say is:
On one hand, taking Zimmerman's case in full color to the public could yield dividends for a defense that has to infuse only reasonable doubt about whether Trayvon's death was murder or self-defense. Yet the strategy could also fuel divisiveness in a hyper-emotional case, which could turn jurors off, legal analysts suggest.
The defense attorneys are defending this as "self defense" not "stand your ground". You clearly do not understand the difference.
