The time span from when Zimmerman spotted Martin to the time he shot him is seven minutes.
This wasn't a long chase. Half of that time was spent on a well lit street where Zimmerman spots Martin, Zimmerman says Martin circles the car and then Zimmerman says Martin is getting away.
It's not consistent that Zimmerman, who "fears" Martin is armed, follows him into a dark courtyard to "get an address" and that within that timeframe Martin secrets a location to "lie in wait" and attack Zimmerman.
It doesn't make sense from Zimmerman's statement that Martin is running away nor does it make any sense given the time that Martin had to "plot" this attack.
And it doesn't make any sense to "get an address" in an area with no lights.
Zimmerman admits to both following Martin and then changes the story that he kept going to find the address across the courtyard.
And that doesn't make sense.
Well, considering the fact that the first impulse when someone is doing something they aren't supposed to be doing is the run, I figure that makes sense. But since TM had drugs in his system it's possible he wasn't acting normal.
One could speculate that he at first started running then said "Fuck this, I'm gonna kick somebody's butt". So he decided after talking to his GF on the phone to be a bad-ass and go back and confront that creepy assed Cracker.
Thats it. spread that hyperbole around. BTW are U any kin to Muddy Waters? You sing a lot like him.
I'm merely speculating here. Like you are I might add. Course the evidence presented supports this speculation and absent any eye witnesses to this fact it seems it's downto the grass stains on Zimmerman's back and the injuries on both of them. Trayvan only had skinned knuckles and a bullet hole. Zimmerman had various head injuries, some of which his detractors said weren't serious. Course a witness said that it was getting serious so it's clear Zimmerman didn't wait until it became fatal.
Funny, nobody but a oriental guy actually examined the body and he couldn't relate anything without reading it from a log book. A log book he attempted to keep to himself and had to be ordered to enter as evidence during his testimony.
