Doctor: George Zimmerman had black eyes, painful broken nose but no head trauma

64. there aren't really any good witnesses

most of the information about the actual altercation comes from Zimmerman's account, which from what I have read, varies in his 5 different statements to the police and will be part of the argument from the prosecution.

But, there is one fact that is clear. Tryavon Martin, did attempt to flee, he ran away from Zimmerman once he realized that he was being followed by him in his vehicle, after he approached Zimmerman in the vehicle and after Zimmerman denied that he was following him and then rolled up his window. These are established facts. Martin felt threatened by Zimmerman, and tried to flee. Unfortunately, Zimmerman, decided to pursue on foot, claiming that he was only trying to get a street name for the 911 operator, but since we also know that he followed Martin into the dark area well away from the road and that is where the altercation took place. This action of leaving the protection of his vehicle was a sign to the detective investigating the shooting that Zimmerman was not acting like someone who was fearful.

Those are not disputable facts, Zimmerman pursued aggressively, both in and away from his vehicle, Martin, tried to flee and stopped when he was out of breath. Zimmerman managed to catch up to where he stopped and the rest is not so clear, but one fact is not disputed except apparently in the minds of many Zimmerman supporters but Martin, did try to run away and avoid conflict, and that doesn't quite fit into the neat little story that Zimmerman wants you to believe that Martin, was a vicious thug, who told him that he was going to die that night
