“Does New Sanford PD Video Show Zimmerman With Broken Nose?”
(Some of the later images appear to show something, although it could just be the lighting; others- hard to tell)
Thanks. Piers Morgan interviewed Zimmerman’s brother.

Excerpt:
He confirmed the family has received death threats, and that he himself was “contacted by law enforcement too because there was credible intelligence that could have threatened me.” Zimmerman continued:
It is a mythology that’s been built up. … it’s not because [George] doesn’t have supporters, it’s because people who love and support George, his family name, also support the system, the judicial system and the legal system, that we have in America.

Regarding the new video, Zimmerman said some injuries take 24 or 36 hours to “show the bruising,” and sometimes when the nose breaks, blood is swallowed. “We’re confident the medical records are going to explain all of George’s medical history,” he said.
George “has very severe emotional injuries,” he said. “He didn’t call his family and express anything but sadness [...] he had changed, he wasn’t the same [...] he was very disappointed that none of the neighbors had come out and helped.”
Also claiming self-defense, he said George “prevented his firearm from being taken from him and used against him, and that’s called saving your life.” It “would have been George dead had he not acted decisively and instantaneously,” he said.

The police report says when officers arrived Zimmerman was bleeding from the nose and the back of his head. “I was yelling for someone to help me, but no one would help me,” the shooter told police.
The elder Zimmerman said words quickly escalated into an altercation.
“At that point he (Zimmerman) was punched in the nose. His nose was broken. He was knocked to the concrete. Trayvon Martin got on top of him and just started beating him in the face, in his nose, hitting his head on the concrete,” he told the Orlando TV station.

I’ve seen nothing but upstanding citizenry, compassionate humanity and decency from the Zimmerman father and brother.
