The media's wheels are falling off, falling off...

The report described Zimmerman as bleeding from the nose and back of the head. I assume they're saying that the responding officer lied about this.
Yesterday I read somewhere that he was treated at the scene by paramedics. They could have stopped the bleeding and cleaned him up.
The police officers on scene can see what’s going on, obviously, and they can take pictures and ask questions for their investigation.
As far as a copy of the report, that’s not going to be released to the public sphere without the patient’s written permission. It can be produced in response to a subpoena, of course. And the patient himself can do whatever he wants with it.
“BTW, it is called a rear-guard action, not that these libdolts would know that. To wit: throwing whatever cr@p you have as you retreat.”
Inchon.
Thanks Joe. You’re the best
I thought he was helped by paramedics before he went with the police. They don’t usually leave you bloody do they?
Am I wrong, I thought I read or heard he was attended to at the scene?
That is pretty much expected, (from me), although it seems to be a complete surprise to the press. They seem to be surprised that information is actually being gathered, has been all along, but is not being instantly released to them. They don't seem to get that the police are investigating not for the benefit of the press, but because they are investigating an incident which may be a crime, according to their own standards. There are procedures to follow, and from what I can tell, they are being followed.
Many people are reacting to this as if they think it is a tv show, which may be why they are frustrated that there hasn't been a resolution yet, or that they are not privy to every single plot twist. In real life, criminal investigations often hit dead ends and get hung up for years at a time. Police may suspect something, but never arrest because they can't find proof, etc. I don't think that ever happens on CSI, to have a case where for the whole hour they investigate things, can't come to a conclusion, and the whole things sort of falls apart, see you next week.
Ouch!
Where is this picture from?
The officer and emt that treated him will testify to his injuries. The conspiracy theory will fail.
Do police fall under HIPAA? I’m sure one of them was questioning Zimmerman in one of the amber lamps.
This is journalistic fraud with a determined edge to foster discord rather than bring clarity to a tense situation.
Just read today that Trayvon’s girlfriend didn't report the alleged details of their last conversation until several weeks AFTER his death.
“Some guy is following me.....etc., etc.”
That time line was NEVER reported by the MSM in their initial coverage.
The MSM implication was always that the girlfriend's statement was contemporaneous testimony to the police.
I should have realized something was wrong when the MSM stopped reporting on this alleged conversation several days ago.
If Zim got good lawyers, the EMT will have signed statements, the doctor who treated the broken nose will have signed statements to back up his version. If Zim is innocent, his lawyer will tell him to take the PR beatings now, while the lawyer and his PI will gather evidence of his innocence.
It is like the Duke Lacrosse lynching. One kid was able to prove his innocence during the grand jury when his lawyer showed a picture taken by an ATM showing the date and time and the kid taking money out of the machine located over 30 minutes from frat house. The dancer claimed that he was at the frat house at that time part of a group of students who assaulted her.
I grabbed this from the video at about 1:04. It clearly shows a head-wound.

"Marched"?
How utterly pathetic.
In the police report submitted by the first officer on the scene, as soon as the EMTs had finished checking out the dead attacker, they took Zimmerman into a vehicle and worked on him. That would account for no visible blood in the Video ,of course the left wing press is anxious to prove this was a cold blooded murder and I suppose they are inplying all the witnesses and the police lied.
If anybody wants to look at the police report you can go here:

Yes the nose and back of the head injuries are definitely mentioned.
