In reply to the discussion: Pic Of The Moment: The Case Of The Amazing Disappearing Evidence [View all]sarge43
(28,941 posts)124. And the cops had a change of clothing ready at the scene?
Doesn't that video show the cops and Zimmerman arriving at the station? If so, where and when Zimmerman change clothes? And why would the cops have him change at the scene or even more unlikely during transport?
Finally, if those are indeed the clothes Zimmerman was wearing during the shooting, where are they now?

Speculations aren't facts, though. They're just guesses--sometimes educated, other times, halfassed.

First aid? If his nose is broken wouldn't there at least be a bandage? Also on the 'wound' ...
