Two things concern me more than others about the scenario of Zimmerman's claims.
-Zimmerman's claims of his head being beat on the sidewalk
-LE's statement of dampness and grass on Zimmerman's back consistent with being on his back.
Some seem convinced that, as Zimmerman said, TM punched him in the nose, knocking him down, and then got on top of a prone Zimmerman and started bashing his head against the sidewalk as he lay in the grass. That's what led Zimmerman to pull out his handgun and shoot Trayvon in the chest while he was on top of him, out of fear for his life.
That's more or less the gist of it, isn't it?
We know, with reasonable certainty that the body was found approximately here:
From the video link below with Trayvon's father, we know the position of the body as well. At the 1:33 mark he says:
"His feet were like on the sidewalk"
At the 1:39 mark he says:
"And his body was laid out this way" (motioning with both hands towards the grass)

Here's my problem with all of this. For Zimmerman to be (a) laying on his back in the grass AND (b) having Trayvon on top of him bashing his head against the sidewalk when he shot him,
Zimmerman would have to be on his back 180 degrees OPPOSITE of the direction the boy's body was found in
OR
on the opposite side of the sidewalk.
How did the body pf a 17 year old kid, shot in the chest with a large caliber handgun, come to lay in a completely opposite positioning from what was REQUIRED for either possibility of Zimmerman's claims?
