See, I'm still not comfortable in the soundness of that assumption, especially when the 911 operator tried to arrange for a meeting place between him and the cops. Zimmerman would not agree to meet them when the 911 operator suggested the clubhouse (I believe it was the clubhouse), rather he told the operator to have the cops call him when they got there.Where are you getting that? On the tape, I hear Zimmerman saying "OK" when the 911 operator told him they don't need him to follow Martin, but I would have to assume that meant Zimmerman stopped.Yes it did when Martin ran Zimmerman went after him, Zimmerman had already identified martin as someone who was acting strange looked like he was on something.
However when Zimmerman was asked to not follow Martin he stopped and went back to his vehicle waiting for the police to arrive.
Ask yourself this why would Zimmerman shoot Martin knowing that the police were in route?
I'm not convinced that assumption is a sound one.
Is there something else to indicate Zimmerman went back to his car?
He knew the police were coming and was going to meet them at certain location. Common sense would tell you that he would not continue to look for Martin knowing he was to supposed to meet with police in another location.
