Zimmerman Prosecution Opening Statement: "F**king Punks"

92. I Answered The Injury Question

In theory, his head was snapped back from the blow that caused the bloody nose and his head hit the edge of the sidewalk in that position as he went down.

A round was in the chamber as Zimmerman was riding around in his vehicle. I have heard nothing about whether the safety was on or not but I kind of doubt that it was on. Don't know the brand offhand but it was a semi-automatic pistol. The fact that he fired only 1 shot indicated he knew Martin was hit hard and it wasn't going to take more rounds to bring him down.

We also know there was loud shouting that prompted a neighbor to call 911 but the shouting apparently subsided as the neighbor responded to the dispatcher then suddenly this high pitched scream that the neighbor thought was "help", a very short pause and another scream that ends instantly when the shot is heard. That would happen if the person shot was the person screaming. It could coincidently happen that the shooter stopped screaming at the sound of a shot but is a much, much lower possibility since the duration of the sound of the shot is probably only about 1/8 of a second.
