You seem to be late to the party. Nobody nearly stumbled or fell, and the police and the DA, who looked at the evidence first hand weren't convinced that the so called "bruising" had anything to do with the event in question.
"But Ellis said that photo was taken days later, and that a picture shot with Fields' iPhone on the night of the incident indicated no bruises at all."
'The initial photos that we received were a couple days old,' Ellis said, calling it a case of 'delayed reporting.'
'She had taken a photograph on her iPhone that same evening, and there was really nothing there.'
'It wasn't anything that was anything remotely close' to what the later picture showed,' Ellis said, confirming that 'her phone did not show any bruising.'
She also allowed that in some cases bruises can appear days later. But it's unclear why Fields may have taken a picture of her unbruised arm on March 8
Ms. Ellis is the Chief Assistant Prosecutor working for the DA's office in Florida.
I take it you didn’t look at the video.
