In reply to the discussion: I'm detecting that the media is beginning to change the Trayvon Martin case narrative [View all]DearAbby
(12,461 posts)17. Some watchman, had no clue the Neighborhood had black Residents
I also find it strange the injuries Zimmerman suffered, no mention of being medically treated. No doctor, ER or even Police initial treatment of these injuries.
Wouldn't these injuries still be visible less than one month later? We will never know, no photographs were taken of Zimmerman proving his injuries, no medical reports via doctor or ER. Nothing noted in police report about Zimmerman taken to hospital treated for injuries and later released.
none of it adds up.

Zimmerman said that "he" was calling for help but no one would help him. What a mess this is.

They'll publish just about anything to get peoples' attention, which keeps ad prices high.

Zimmerman weighs about 100 lbs more than Trayvon and was STALKING Trayvon, not the other way around
