Only he didn't claim he was attacked "where sidewalks meet." Now, this is hearsay, since the story was told by the father, but the father claimed Trayvon came from where the sidewalks meet and asked Zimmerman a question.
According to the pictures I believe that it happened right behind John's unit which is the 2nd from the end. The end unit has the enclosed porch. So when John says 30ft maybe he meant 30ft in front of him from his bathroom window looking down at them on the ground?
Anyone notice that the chasing this witness described was in the direction of the T?
One thing's for certain, it would have to be before they got to THIS spot:
I wonder how this will play out for a jury that's heard GZ's statements about "walking back to his vehicle", and being attacked by Trayvon, "where the sidewalks meet"?
I wonder if they'll notice the body, shown above, is already SIXTY THREE FEET away from "where the sidewalks meet"?
Well it appears "John's" story is starting to crumble.
A key witness to the Trayvon Martin shooting changed the story he had given Sanford, Fla., police, telling state authorities he was not sure who was screaming during the altercation with George Zimmerman, NBC Dateline confirmed Friday.
The man known as Witness #6 originally told Sanford police Zimmerman cried for help. The witness stuck to his account that he saw Martin, 17, straddling Zimmerman and pinning him to the ground before Martin was shot.

Thank you, Doc. That's what I've been saying all along, that most of us would just assume the person on the bottom of a scuffle in the dark was doing the screaming. But if TM had seen the gun by then, he might well have been screaming and trying to get the gun away from GZ, even while on the top.

Remember the part about coming from his "rear left" while walking back to his vehicle? Unless one believes Trayvon, somehow, "materialized" out of the end of one of those buildings while George was walking back to his vehicle, in the area of "where the sidewalks meet" is all that's left.Only he didn't claim he was attacked "where sidewalks meet."

IMO, it is very likely that this jury, if there ever is one, will be sequestered, no?

I apologize for being out of town without access to my saved info, but check out the "leaked" article from the Orlando Sentinel and see what George told LE. Remember, the only artlce verified as accurate by the City Manager of Sanford, FL?
Anyone know how often people who shoot guns break their noses from the kick? I don't know much about gun, but I did shoot handguns on Sunday from the time I was about 8 years old. I haven't touched one in many years, but even when I was 8, I never got hurt by the kick. Worst case, my hands would fly up and I'd miss the target.
City Manager's have lied in other high profile cases. Want me to name one?
Feel free to do so if you choose, but betcha I can name more accused murderers that have lied about who started an altercation with no witness or evidence to the contrary.City Manager's have lied in other high profile cases. Want me to name one?
He still affirms Martin was on top...and GZ's broken nose and other injuries confirm the beating. Stories that "change"after much interrogation and pressure are very typical in high profile media persecution cases. Remember the second stripper who flipped from saying the duke rape was a 'crock' to a "could be"when Nifong got through with her. On Sixty Minutes , she finally came clean again.
Or blessed Mr. Elmostafa, the Black cab driver...pressured by detectives to change his story that gave Reade Seligmann an alibi. When he refused, Nifong charged him on a bogus shop-lifting charge and made him stand trial. He won a Readers Digest award for bravery.
But that's how its done.
So am I surprised that stories change? It's very common and indicative of nothing.

"Indicative of nothing"? So you do what, pick whichever version suits your theory?
Is GZ righthanded? If he is, then his right eye would most likely be the dominant. If he put the gun up near his face to sight his target, it would figure that the side of the bridge of his nose would be bruised if his gun recoiled and hit him.
Which father? ...
Why would he lie about it?
