Concerned Papa: I know you're working diligently to get the exact spot of the body figured out. In one of the videos that I've linked (the one where "John" was hiding behind his door) I remembered seeing, for a brief moment, what looked to me like a body being covered by a yellow tarp in the footage. That video seems to have been removed so I scoured that source and found another video with the footage of the body/yellow tarp. You can find it at 0:48 in this video:

Edit below:
The "[2:26]" beside the red person marker, to be specific. I don't think the angle is quite that extreme, but in that general direction.
Thanks, I have the video. This comes up from time to time, but nothing that I know of supports that yellow tarp having a body under it. I'll be the first one to admit that it sort of looks like a head sticking out from underneath it, but dang, surely those people showed more respect to the dead than that, KWIM?
At some point maybe they'll tell us something, but I've got locations by "witnesses" from the ridiculous (like that Francis Taaffe deal I posted) all the way up to and including O'Mara and the State Investigator's comments at the Bond Hearing. I don't think I've ever seen a case where there's this much convoluted information out there.
At least it seems to be coming into a bit more clear focus with four sources being very near, and overlapping one another. I view it as extremely important in this particular case, possibly more so than any other I have ever been involved in.
In this case a very clear picture of what George Zimmerman has told LE as to the timing and his path of his movement for that night has emerged. Not one statement, not one word by anyone has ever placed him anywhere except on that sidewalk once he got out of his vehicle at [2:08]. He told LE the attack happened as he was walking back to his vehicle. I just don't see how it could be true if the body was found half a football field away as his own attorney said at the Bond Hearing.
People here don't know or understand because I've never stated as such before, but I live in Florida. I have hunted my entire life. I have been a proud member of the NRA a large part of my life. I own, at least, 25 guns for hunting purposes. When the legislature was debating the SYG law, I fully supported it then, and I fully support the concept of standing your ground against lethal aggression now.
However, as strongly as I feel about being able to stand your ground, I could never support the concept of "chasing your ground". If that boy's dead body is not shown to be somewhere near that sidewalk, I can see zero justification for the actions taken by George Zimmerman. That boy was unarmed and had committed no crime.
It could have been MY son.
OK...Papa's off his soapbox now, LOL
