1. There is an unreleased EMS report that should clear things up

Elsewhere some are contesting the video, but the report of those who were hands on (literally) will be telling. Police should have taken photos as part of the interview. It is unknown if they did or not. There are claims that Zimmerman went to a private doc the next day. Records and radiology from that visit would also be useful.

There are other threads here about broken noses here on DU...my take is that the vast majority bleed and/or swell, but some do not.

In the video released yesterday I did not see someone who was injured...he is going to jail.
