Yes, absolutely.

The State has one heck of a case in front of them and a high hurdle of evidence to clear - because so far there have been no reports of any witnesses to who initiated the fight. We have the interview of George after the fact - and Treyvon - the only other witness - is dead.

I am sure much hay will be made of - and straw attempted to be spun into gold with - the ‘not getting away again’ quote from George - and the ‘you don't need to do that (follow him)’ from the dispatcher.

What evidence points towards Martin being the aggressor?

“What evidence points towards Martin being the aggressor?”

The question is, “what evidence points toward Zimmerman being the aggressor?” State has to prove that beyond a reasonable doubt.

Well, how about the fact that Zimmerman had the injuries to his face, head and back, while Martin's only injuries were to his hands (indicating he was the one doing the hitting) and the gunshot wound...

There is also the small fact that Zimmerman had lost sight of Martin a full 2-3 minutes before the final confrontation, and Martin was only about a football field away from where he was staying when Zimmerman lost sight of him. It would have taken Martin less than 30 seconds walking at a fast pace (not even running) to cover that distance. So how is it that the confrontation occurred less than 40 yards from Zimmerman's vehicle? Isn't it likely that, rather than go home, Martin circled around and confronted Zimmerman?
