3. this confirms my theory

even though i think that was not the intent of the video. that the confrontation was almost exactly where zimmerman was when he was asked not to follow martin. only 15 to 20 seconds away from his car, not 4 minutes,when if he would have continued following trayvon all the way to his dad's house. and that's all we can conclude from this video.

the video claims that zimmerman continued searching for trayvon all this time but obviously didn't get very far.

this is roughly at the 30 minute point of the video.

i see 3 different scenarios....

1. zimmerman continues following trayvon, loses him, and starts walking back to his truck. trayvon follows him back. confrontation occurs.

2. zimmerman stops and stays where he is. trayvon comes back to where he last saw zimmerman, confrontation occurs.

3.zimmernan stops, loses sight of trayvon, goes around the other building to get the address, and. comes past the point where he stopped earlier on the way back to his truck. this is what zimmerman claims. trayvon either comes back to this point for some reason after having lost zimmerman, or he was in hiding all the time in one of the nitches of the building there. confrontation occurs.

anybody else have a different scenario that matches this timeline?
who was stalking who at the end?
