Zimmerman did not outweigh Martin by 100lbs....

[HereSince1628]

42. When considering weight differentials, do we add the weight of the loaded pistol to Zimmerman????

Trying to make Zimmerman's justification for fear for his life based on lack of a weight differential seems tenuous at best.

Based on 911 tapes Zimmerman pursued Trayvon despite any weight difference. According to the young woman on the phone with Trayvon, Zimmerman physically confronted Trayvon despite the weight difference.

Zimmerman seems to have acted with indifference to any risk that might have existed due to differences between his physique or athleticism and Trayvon's.



Regarding what is known about the physique of the gun shot victim and the shooter...There is a wiki sight (granting questionable reliability thereof) and it lists the following

According to Sanford Police, Martin weighed 160 pound, according to Trayvon's family he weighed 150. {Robles, Frances (March 31, 2012). "What is known, what isn’t about Trayvon Martin’s death". The Miami Herald. Retrieved April 21, 2012}

Zimmerman's weight isn't listed on the police report. His friend and supporter Mr Oliver suggested Zimmerman weighed 170 lbs. {Friend: George Zimmerman scared for his life". WKMG Local 6. March 27, 2012. Retrieved from internet April 21,2012}
