It’s only after he exited the truck to comply with the request to locate TM that the dispatcher told him not to follow. GZ complied....

This is false. The 911 Operator specifically said 'We don't need you to do that.'

It was not a command to not follow. It was basically a statement to protect the Authorities from a lawsuit if Z got hurt while following.

—’We don’t need you to do that.’—

Exactly. It was not an instruction.

It’s not false. It’s a summary of the meaning of 2 lines by the dispatcher.

1) are you following? (Yes)

2) we don’t need you to do that (Zimmerman complies)

See the transcript at # 241

As a summary it’s a fair one. There were no quotation marks around it.

The point is that Zimmerman complied and that he was doing what he thought the dispatcher had asked. It makes Zim look good that he listened.
