17 yo Trayvon Martin Shot to Death by Neighborhood Watch Captain #13

[Dr.Fessel]

I presume that second photo is him otherwise the guy in that photo would be really, really upset.

Maybe it is a cousin or someone dead. Who knows.

 

[IzzyBlanche]

All correct except that last part. Allegedly, Martin discovered the gun while they were in the struggle and Zimmerman felt it was either him or Martin at that point.

I don't recall having seen that. Do you happen to have a link? If not no biggie, as numerous posters have pointed out we don't have GZ's version firsthand anyway. But if so, I'd like to read it.

When Clooney was arrested he gave LE the name Brad Pitt. lol. True story!

God, I love that man! :floorlaugh:

Well, I did have that 80 pound German Shepard who was just dying to get out that door. I don't think anyone breaking into my home would have noticed the gun I was holding with Mr. Jaws-of-Life in their face. Point was my husband was saying if you have a gun be prepared to use it because in a struggle the gun could be used against you. In this case the gun was empty. Had someone else had a gun I'd be dead now because I was not prepared to use it, just wanted to scare them. jmo

Love it! :floorlaugh::floorlaugh:

I think the key here is that TM's parents were never informed and that tells me the school found out the truth. They can't very well release information to the press about a minor who had nothing to do with this crime. For them to even suggest someone else was involved might cause the media to sleuth this child out. If TM was never charged by the school or LE it sounds as if the mystery was solved. And we have no right to violate the rights of another minor just to satisfy our curiosity. jmo

NO IT DOES NOT.
Just because they do not know whom the Bubbles belongs to
does not mean that it is solved.
The way I read it the police confiscated it all.
IT IS MY HOPE that they would put the bubbles on the internet and hope
someone will come forward. But they do have more important cases,
and they do not do thorough work.
BUT NO WAY does it indicate that the mystery is solved.
Unless the Jewelry was returned to whomever.

I am not a good enabler.

I have no idea whether he had legitimate injuries or not. I do make this observation though: bandages placed and seen the next day will not hold much if ANY weight in this situation. The "bumps" underneath the bandaids could have been contrived. His nose COULD have been broken that night after he got home from the police station. And the fact that this person says Zimmerman HAD TO HAVE acted in self defense shows that he is biased and therefore not of value as a witness.

No one knows whether GZ acted in self defense or not.[/Y

OKay..and we can also then rule out as biased and unreliable anyone who says TM COULD NOT have instigated the fight. Let's clear the slate on both sides.

Oh, gotcha. I see what you're saying, and he had/has a very valid point.

OMG I wish I had pictures of me last year when I went out in the snow to get the food from the car. Never, ever, never wear slippers in the snow!! Face plant. Two big black eyes and my nose has a big scar. My Grandma would have said I looked like a stuck pig.

GZ has no blood on his body, clothes. IMO, JMO, MOO

I looked liked I had gone one round with Mike Tyson. And all I did was slip in my slippers.

 

[IzzyBlanche]

Hmmm, we saw him a mere 35-45 minutes after Trayvon's brutal murder, and he had absolutely no bandages on him anywhere. He must have some amazing powers to be able to heal that quickly.



~jmo~

I also noticed that he apparently managed to get his nose broken without getting any blood on his shirt.

It is not a secret that the Seminole Police is a poor excuse for a Police department.
They are also known to put things under a rug, they are also suspected of racial bias.


They did hand cuff him and bring him in. You cannot investigate in one evening.
An investigation takes time, and it is even more urgent when one can tell his side and the other can't.
Again - I am not jumping on GZ NO...
I see that if there was a proper through investigation we would not have a fiasco.

Just got off the phone with a friend in Orlando – she is not interested in the case enough to follow it.
only because the Seminole Police is in the mix and she sais we do not trust them.

An yet they decided not to charge or detain him within a mere few hours. AFTER a late night emergency visit from the prosecutor.

I was at work last night and we have two 16 fixing to turn 17 year old boys working there. One is about the same height and build of Trayvon. He has worked there for awhile, the other one only started this weekend. Anyway, when we slowed down they introduced themselves to each other. I stood there listening to them talk about their sports teams and who played who, girls, cars...you know 16 year old things. And it broke my heart, because I thought about those conversations Tray will never have.

A child is dead. And reading how some are trying to turn him into a thief and worse is sickening. Does it bother anyone that they may be trashing a good kids reputation? Or is this world so ******up that no one cares anymore? I'm ashamed for the state of humanity today. People need to look in the mirror before pointing fingers.

awww teh that made me cry

Not all injuries are the same. Broken noses don't always have to bleed much, if at all. It all depends on how it was broken.

All we got is a fuzzy video that makes it difficult to see if he actually has injuries.
Also bruising develops not immediately but later.

He is a pretty funny guy :floorlaugh:
It is obvious who he is but they still have to ask. LOL
But when he said Brad Pitt, I spit up the water I was drinking....
Because they did not laugh, they just wrote it down.

 

[IzzyBlanche]

More so than the ones who change their story that they gave to the police, to something the Media likes better.

Who did this?

we have not seen any official photos taken at the scene or the police station either. IMO, we should wait for that. But I must say again, it takes an incredibly brave person to speak up for GZ. You literally risk your life in this current situation.

Also want to point out that Trayvon had $22.00 and some change on him, so it if very consistent with him purchasing (not stealing) Skittles ($1.05- $1.59with tax) and an Arizona Tea ($1.05-$1.37 with tax). I buy Skittles and Arizona tea a lot. :floorlaugh: He would not have been given a receipt unless he asked for it.

ETA: I'm thinking he walked to the store with $25.00 on him total.

IN MY OPINION that too is a case in itself.

I do not think he stole his snake at the 7/11.

But I have heard there is a video of TM at the 7/11.
I would love to see it. If anyone has it.
