In reply to the discussion: Expert: Zimmerman whispered 'punks' before shooting Trayvon Martin [View all]nytemare
(10,888 posts)This same expert said it was not Zimmerman calling for help. He compared Zimmerman's voice with the isolated screaming on the 911 calls, and said it was not Zimmerman. Here is a link to that story: http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/04/01/10963191-trayvon-martin-case-911-call-screams-not-george-zimmermans-2-experts-say
And on the timeline, at 7:15, the phone call with Martin's girlfriend went dead. This was just after she said she heard Zimmerman say "What are you doing here", and Martin say "What are you following me for?". The shot was a minute later at 7:16. So where in there did he have time to walk away? After he talked to Martin and asked him what he was doing there? At no time in Zimmerman's version did that interchange that the girlfriend discussed come in. He engaged Martin at 7:15, he initiated the contact, and the contact was continued until the gunshot, because you can hear Martin yelling for help the whole minute of 716 until the shot was fired. There was NO time in there for Zimmerman to disengage that contact and start to walk back to his car. He fucked up, and he had to come up with some way to imply that he felt he was in danger, so he made up a story.
