Zimmerman: Afraid of Being in Jail

[csziggy]

39. Trayvon's father's fiance was interviewed the day after the death by the local Fox News station

The claim that Trayvon's body was not claimed for days is wrong.

Trayvon's father and his girlfriend went out to dinner that night. When they got back around 10:30-11:00 PM, there was no sign of any incident, no police, no flashing lights, nothing they saw. They may have returned through the back entrance which was only a short distance from the front door of her townhouse. Trayvon's father tried to call him and the call went directly to voice mail. Trayvon had talked about going to a movie with a cousin so his father tried to call the cousin. That call also went to voice mail. The father thought they'd both turned off their phones in the theater. He went to sleep.

The next morning when he got up and realized Trayvon was not home, he called the police. They sent cars out to the house, showed him a picture of Trayvon dead and the father identified his son. The body was not released until two days later, which may be where the three days later claim came from.
