    Nothing - but the killing was done, you have a dead body & a guy who admits doing the killing. The only thing that stops it from being outright murder or manslaughter is Z's claim that it was self defense. And all you have is Z's word for it (the guy who could spend yrs behind bars) & nothing else other than a couple injuries which prove nothing.

    And simple things like injuries that corroborate his story and the fact there is not enough evidence to contradict his story means nothing to you.

    Common sense man.

    Its kind of interesting that you haven't refuted any of your fellow righties who have denegrated Martin because he was caught with marijuana.

    Hmmm.....wonder why that is.

    What I've read about Tom Owen is that he's an internationally known & respected forensic expert & also the chairman ot the American Board of Recorded Evidence & of the Audio Engineering Society's Group on forensic audio. And that he worked for 11 yrs at the Lincoln Center Archives as the chief engineer. How is this a conflict & wouldn't that indicate he not only has a strong personal reputation to uphold as a voice expert, but also the credibility of his company & product/s?

    Common sense factor:

    Why would Trayvon in theory be screaming if he:

    A. Didn't have a broken nose.

    B. Didn't have his head slamming the sidewalk repeatedly.

    C. If Zimmerman had blood on his face and stunned by sucker punch, how is he gonna put Trayvon in a position where he felt he needed to scream for his life?

    D. Since Zimmerman did have blood on his face, back of his head, he would be the logical choice to have been screaming no?

    E. When cops showed up one cop overheard Zimmerman explaining that he was upset that he was yelling for help and no one would come help him. Zimmerman had no idea that the 13 year old boy would corroborate that claim later in the investigation.

    Common sense man.

Has something changed?

    What I've read about Tom Owen is that he's an internationally known & respected forensic expert & also the chairman ot the American Board of Recorded Evidence & of the Audio Engineering Society's Group on forensic audio. And that he worked for 11 yrs at the Lincoln Center Archives as the chief engineer. How is this a conflict & wouldn't that indicate he not only has a strong personal reputation to uphold as a voice expert, but also the credibility of his company & product/s?

    Please do.

    I just find it fascinating that you KNOW what happened, when the reality is that only two people KNOW what happened. One is dead.

    Nothing in police report or funeral parlor indicated Trayvon had been in a fight. So we can safely say that A and B are True.

    C.Corroborated on police report.

    D. Corroborated on police report.

    E. Corroborated on police report.

    This is asking a theoretical question and therefore is not conjecture after all.

     Nice try.

    He was screaming because at that point in time Zimmerman was in control whether he had already pulled his gun or not. And with the rolling & fighting Martin easily could have seen Z's gun.There are so many obvious holes in Z's story, I don't have the time to again go into it. Why don't you read up on all the accounts of the below & put the lies together for yourself? And if it was true & righteous self defense, then why the lies?

    911 call

    call with gf right before Z confronted him

    where the body was found in relation to M's dad's place & Z's car

    timing & time elapsed of when Z says M was running & then all of a sudden he lost him & is returning to car

    position of M's body after shooting & implausibility of Z being able to get his gun & shoot him while supposedly being on the bottom gettin his head pounded against concrete.

    voice experts

    Could go on & on (their size/weight, force it takes to actually knock someone over flat on their back - most folks fall forward,  etc) but that's more than enough to show this is a fabricated story by Z.

    Grand jury will be called into session on 4-10. Imagine they already believe he'll be indicted & are just putting everything together & deciding on what the charge will be. Hell, may even end up being murder 2, but I doubt it...

    A bunch of people on here have already agreed the likelihood of someone screaming when gun is on them.

    Z didn't say anything about a call T had with his girl. No lie there.

    Z said he had been punched in nose and had his head pounded in pavement. No lie there based on lacerations seen in police video (enhanced)

    Said he was screaming for help, based on lacerations on back of head he was on the bottom where 13 year old boy said the screamer was which trumps audio dumbasses.

    Since when does a person fall forward when punched in nose? Fall backwards is more believeable and physics agree.

    I don't know about how far the fight was from his car or Trayvons dad's house. It doesn't matter where the fucking fight was if Trayvon threw the first punch and followed with head banging.

    Your theory that if he was lying about whether or not he was following T then he was lying about everything else is ignorant, stupid, not well thought out, dumb, assinine, moneysrh, and just plain wrong.

    Even if he was following him and lied about it to the fucking dispatcher doesn't mean that he started a physical fight.

    Is there a video of Martin in a 7-11 prior to the incident?

    Was Zimmerman returning home or on his way to the store?

     

    Holy Shit, you got barred for kickin the know-it-alls ass in a debate.!

    Sounds like you need to go back & look at everything Z said to the police & then try to logically see if it makes sense to you based on all that's known including the gf's account of the conversation with Martin. If it doesn't, doesn't 1 have to ask why he would have lied?

    Truth here is Z only has 3 things here that that could work in his favor & even they show & prove nothing. The police report on the nose & back of his head & the witness that says they saw him at the bottom at 1 point in the fight with Martin hitting him. Absolutely everything else works against him from beginning to end & if the screaming voice is matched without a doubt to Martin, pretty much game over. 

    So much talk of Z having his head banged into the concrete - did anyone even witness that? How do we know he didn't just hit his head on the sidewalk after falling &/or during the fight? If you can't believe practically all of the key elements in Z's account (& noone folowing any logic/common sense could), how can anyone believe him about the fight & shooting? You can't -

    Truth here is Z only has 3 things here that that could work in his favor & even they show & prove nothing. The police report on the nose & back of his head & the witness that says they saw him at the bottom at 1 point in the fight with Martin hitting him. Absolutely everything else works against him from beginning to end & if the screaming voice is matched without a doubt to Martin, pretty much game over. 

    So much talk of Z having his head banged into the concrete - did anyone even witness that? How do we know he didn't just hit his head on the sidewalk after falling &/or during the fight? If you can't believe practically all of the key elements in Z's account (& noone folowing any logic/common sense could), how can anyone believe him about the fight & shooting? You can't -

    Trayvons girl said he was being followed and a little scared and she told him to run and he said he wasn't going to...she then heard the two ask each other a question and then scuffling before the call dropped. What am I missing?

    If you show a video to 10 people and then ask each one to write down what they saw you will likely get 8 or 9 different accounts of the same video.

    If Zimmerman simply made a mistake or two regarding a detail that doesn't amount to lying but would indeed be reasonable.

    If he lied or made a mistake about where the fighting took place or if he was following or not it really doesn't matter.

    He could have saved the whole thing if he backed off. Would a reasonable person have backed off? Not necessarily, especially if alot of burglars have been getting away in the past.

    It still doesn't matter if he backed off or not. He has every right to question a strangers activities in his neighborhood. As long as thats all he did is question Trayvon he has no reason to regret anything he did. There is no evidence to suggest he did anything to the contrary so WE MUST give him the benefit of the doubt.

    What are you saying exactly that he lied about?
