Hi jt,

the windows reference comes from zimmerman's brother. i believe i have represented him accurately.

coon was the invention of cnn. turned out to be punks.

there's absolutely zero evidence of racism, as far as i have read.

after the fight, martin only had a laceration under his ring, whereas zimmerman had wounds on his face and the back of his head. there's no doubt that the evidence shows he was losing the fight.

the police confirm zimmerman had grass stains on his back. a witness who viewed the whole thing saw zimmerman on his back getting pummeled and shouting for help. the police concluded he called for help 17 times. immediately following the incident, he was heard saying he called for help and nobody came.

re the calls, martin's father initially said the person crying for help was not his son. martin's mother claims the cries for help are martin's.

zimmerman carried a gun because there had previously been a nasty pitbull in the neighbourhood and an animal control person had recommended a firearm rather than pepper spray.

zimmerman passed a police lie detector test immediately after the incident.

CF,


You are the first to mention to me that Martin was looking in windows and I have been watching this case very closely. Tne attack occured on the sidewalk that both parties were walking on and ended up in the grass where Martin died. If the color thing was an invention of the media, we do not believe that line at all. The media was slow to report the case and when it was reported, the lead was always the recorded 911 calls that came in from Zimmerman himself and then from those that called in to report the cries for help and then the shot which could be heard in one of the 911 calls. The bit about the hoodie was mentioned by Zimmerman himself in one of the exchanges. And, by the way, the reason that the federal government is interested in this case is a partially muffled phrase on one of the 911 calls where Zimmerman refers to Martin as an (inadible) coon, whichg os a southern slang term for black people! Really, Zimmerman is his own worst enemy in these 911 calls. In addition to that, we have only Zimmermans credibility in what provoked the fight and his credibility was sorely damaged when he lied to the judge about his finances in order to secure a lesser bail than the one million dollars that he is out on now!

This case has turned into a cause celeb. here in the United States and we think that holding a hearing without a jury and releasing this man without facing the jury in the face of the death of a minor might provoke some civil unrest just as the Rodney King fiasco did in California back in 1992. In that case, incidentely, the local jury found King's attackers innocent and then a later federal jury found them guilty, so there are some parallels there.


Regards,


Joe
