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.

I agree... FarPoint Mar 2012 #1

probable cause was the dead kid zimmerman admitted killing noiretextatique Mar 2012 #50
