FoxNews also reported that there are about 6 witnesses who claim it was Martin yelling for help. And that there are no witnesses to the actual assault and only 1 witness who claims Martin was pounding Zimmerman. Sounds like the 911 call will make the final determination? The minute and a half or so after Zimmerman was told he didn't need to follow Martin.
In the police department security video. The one not altered by ABC News. Looks to be four to five inches long.
There's also the initial police report that describes the injuries and the treatment rendered at the scene.
George Zimmerman to be charged in Trayvon Martin shooting, official says
By Sari Horwitz, Wednesday, April 11, 12:56 PM
Florida special prosecutor Angela Corey plans to announce as early as Wednesday afternoon that she is charging neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, according to a law enforcement official close to the investigation.
It was not immediately clear what charge Zimmerman will face.
Martin, 17 and unarmed, was shot and killed Feb. 26 by Zimmerman, who said he was acting in self-defense. Police in Sanford, Fla., where the shooting took place, did not charge Zimmerman, citing the state’s “stand your ground” law.
Corey told reporters Tuesday night that she would hold a news conference about the case within 72 hours. A news release from her office said the event will be held in Sanford or Jacksonville, Fla.
Benjamin Crump, who is representing the Martin family, said this week that Corey’s office had asked where Trayvon’s parents would be each day this week. They arrived Wednesday in Washington for a civil rights conference organized by the Rev. Al Sharpton, where they are scheduled to speak.
The announcement of a charge against Zimmerman would come a day after Zimmerman’s attorneys withdrew from the case, citing their inability to contact Zimmerman.
Lawyers Craig Sonner and Hal Uhrig on Tuesday expressed concern about Zimmerman’s emotional and physical well-being, saying he has taken actions without consulting them. They also said they do not know where Zimmerman is.
“You can stop looking in Florida,” Uhrig told reporters. “Look much further away than that.”
Corey said Monday that she would not bring the case before a grand jury, which was expected to convene this week. She said her decision to forgo the grand jury should not be viewed as a factor in determining whether charges will be filed.
Corey has indicated in recent weeks that she might not need a grand jury to bring charges against Zimmerman.
The lawyers said they stand by their assertions that Zimmerman acted in self-defense when he killed the 17-year-old, who was unarmed, but they acknowledged that they formed their impressions without meeting Zimmerman.
Oh noes. Thats not true even slightly. I go after three people that I know of and talk to everyone else just fine. Even you. You have accused me of coming after you and I fail to see where that is the case.
Darrin started up with the tired cyclical climate nonsense. Previously he had told me that he liked what BEST had done. Turns out that he was just saying that because he was claiming a chart came from BEST that obviously had not.
I tried to talk the science of how to analyze periodic systems as I have experience doing that. It also just so happens that BEST's analysis specifically addresses that.
He ignored that and tried to switch the conversation to an asinine discussion about relative temporal populations. Thats what he does and I have gotten to the point where I am not going to go around in circles. Deceptive, dissembling, sophist piece of is short concise and to the point.
That is hardly all just diatribe. in this discussion I have talked about the importance of vigilante laws.
I think you just really do not like me telling people to go themselves and go off in umbrage. If thats what you want to think is all i do then put me on ignore. Its obvious that I upset you even though I make it a point to be civil with you.
You go the passive aggressive route I prefer the more direct approach. oh well.
I would get to the bottom of this.
Sarcasm is the solace of small minds.
I guess now we wait to see with what he's charged.
I'm not arguing a scuffle took place, just not at the extent of what zimmer is describing. I would like to see that video cuz the one I saw on Bill Maher, don't know if it was altered version or not, clearly showed no marks or bruises. They even showed an angle of him walking in the police department with much better lighting and still nothing,
I don't slight it. I am just saying that is not all that I do. Rather that is what I mostly do to WC, Darrin, GSH, and boutons. Everyone else i do not do that and I only treat them like that because I believe they intentionally try to mislead people. I don't like that at all and I think its a big problem in this country in general.
If anything I slight the passive aggressive approach.
i heard he has fled florida. i just hope all neighborhood watch people are on the look out.
i'm gonna call my good friend tommy lee jones.
I hope they can find his ass.
this thread picked a fine time to take a nap.
I think I made wine mad again.
the unthinkable happened.
whats the big deal. its just one black dude.
probably get killed eventually anyway.
this is bad news for anyone thats been hassled at the pump.
Angela Corey's news conference will be at 6pm est.
Z was just trying to purify our race....
...with a mexican/jewish twist
Just seems unnecessary to continue debating the topic until we know what's going to be said at the news conference, no?
...
The reality is Zimmerman is in big trouble…The Feds are just getting started with their investigation & now this…
, he's been in big trouble since the moment he pulled the trigger. That's not new.
I think you place too much esteem in the Federal government.
Say, I wonder if our esteemed Attorney General will see any civil rights violation in the the New Black Panther Party putting a bounty on Zimmerman's head.
