Well I'm sorry but I heard the 9-11 call myself several times and he was told to stop following the boy because the police were on the way. That is fact.
"We don't need you to do that" is the same as "was told to stop following the boy"?
I didn't think so. Stick to the "facts".
Your “fact” is made up.
He was told “We don’t need you to do that”. His response was “OK”.
That isn’t “stop following the boy”
Even if the dispatcher said “stop following the boy” (highly unlikely, since the dispatcher didn’t know Martin was 17 years old at the moment) AFAIK it doesn’t constitute a lawful order from an LEO. Dispatchers cannot command you to not do something you have every legal right to do.
From the City Manager’s statement-
“...telecommunications call taker asked Zimmerman “are you
following him”. Zimmerman replied, “yes”. The call taker stated “you don’t need to do that”. The call taker’s suggestion is not a lawful order that Mr. Zimmerman would be required to follow....”
How does “you don’t need to do that” equate to an order to stop? And what does it matter, because the dispatcher can’t give a legal order? He also told the dispatcher, “Okay.”
