didn't bother to track down any medical reports. Or I should say attempt to track them down; I would bet $100 there aren't any.

photos and records to prove their point, at least were it applies to having actual injuries.

cronkite you would think that would be the first thing they do. since when did a neighbor's statement become good enough to report without any facts to back it up.

Now days it's all about sensationalism. How fast can they get a headline that will grap people's attention. The body of the article is irrelevant to them.

I especially like the way they say it could affect the outcome of teh case. Not without medical records!

it would be illegal and unethical for any hospital/attending physician to even let reporters view them.

If any records were leaked... CBS would be in deep shit for releasing them.

ain't buying that

the shooting and after we saw him in the police video.

They might fight back.

Even if Trayvon was fighting him, Trayvon was simply standing his ground, as the law allows.

Wasn't Trayvon just protecting himself from a crazed stalker/?

Surely Zimmerman would allow them to be released if they backup his version of events.

he now walks with a cane and wears a neck brace.

Especially, before applying such bandages?

not even an untucked shirt == no injuries, IMO. Somebody is lying their ass off. And I don't think it's the police video we saw.

not the court of public opinion. When it comes to those "injuries", he better have hospital records or EMS records indicating a broken nose and significant injuries. My hunch is that those records don't exist.

What idiots like Joe Oliver, Zimmy's dad or Zimmy's friends think is irrelevant.

This is now in the court of law.

I guess the 'enhanced', 'enhanced' video will show those butterflies............

Don't know how to embed videos but I think this is the one to use whenever you talk about video enhancement.

I love how they keep coming up with new explanations. It will be interesting to see if there is evidence to back up ANY of them ...

his wounding in the normal (unaltered) security cam footage?

This raises some serious questions about the credibility of the neighbor and about the MSM who are desperately trying to make this go away without Zimmerman actually having to "go away."

I'll even pay out of my own pocket for the X-ray to be taken...

There are a lot of people that just don't like that guy and are quite likely to express their dislike in a physical manner...

Maybe even heal this nation (a tiny bit...)

Cut him off "at the pass" and when he starts kicking my ass, kill him.

Got it. Works for me

It will be interesting to see what Zimmerman's attorney can actually "prove."

left the police station. People do stuff like this all the time - for insurance fraud, to concoct a better story for themselves to get out of punishment for a crime, etc. People have falsified a ton of things since the start of time in order to get themselves out of a jam.

I saw the video at the police station, and it was a big old zero on the injury scale. So if it wasn't until the next day that he had bandages AND a swollen nose, then he had someone (a friend, or probably his dad) pop him a few times that first night, in order to make it appear as though he was attacked by poor Trayvon. A guy like Zimmerman probably thought the pain was worth the price if it can help him avoid a long prison term.

Heck, I've read about guys who've cut off a hand or foot for less of a reason (insurance fraud). So it is plausible in my mind.
