And did they weigh him that night? I remember his weight loss specifically afterwards because he was much thinner at his first court appearance. And he'd been raising money online, lots of it. Many of us wondered if he'd gotten a trainer and a nutritionist for that time so he could drop so much that quickly. And people were talking about how much taller Trayvon was than George, but that George was so much heavier. You remember there were those videos from the police station that night, right? He was in a red jacket. And he was big. And then poof, not so much.

It makes him look more bigger/bulkier. I don't think that's necessarily a plus for the defense nt Incitatus Jun 2013 #15

I agree, that's what I was thinking. If I had been Zimmerman I Raine Jun 2013 #24
