The obfuscation of killing an unarmed man "Enhanced video"

The video, which has been enhanced and sharpened, shows a mark or gash on the back of Zimmerman's head.

This is not video it is a single frame enhanced. I think they are scared of this.


Could they done a more pathetic "enhancement"? A little less round would have been better.

clear evidence he was beaten to a bloody pulp as Trayvon shattered his nose and bashed his head into the concrete again and again. As Zimmerman's brother said, he almost had to wear diapers and be spoon-fed for the rest of his life because it was such a brutal beating.

But that glare isn't there is it?

This is done through a PHOTOSHOP filter, not anything forensic.
