Back about lebenteengazillion threads there's a reference to half-time.

The source is on FR.

I thought it was speculative but the game itself is NOT speculative ~ it was going on. There's a reference above to the father's story ~ read it.

PLUS ~ the mother lives in MIami. I doubt she got all the details correct when the father called her from Orlando to tell her Trayvon was dead.

Yes, I have seen the half-time reference repeated in many news stories, but it is factually false.

I agree about the mother. She witnessed nothing and is obviously not a source for any facts about the incident.

I have read the father’s story, which makes perfect sense to me. When my kids were younger, I fell asleep before they got home more than once. And more than once I woke up in the morning realizing I had not heard them come in, and ran to their rooms. They were always there, but I can only imagine how he felt when Trayvon was not. Nothing at all unusual about the dad’s story.

BUT...I can’t reconcile the dad’s story with the idea that there was a 13-year-old alone in the house who had been waiting for hours for his candy. That’s why I deduce there was no such boy (in the house) and I wonder where that story came from.
