Police surveillance video of Zimmerman may show head injury (photo)
The Daily Caller ^ | 03/29/12 | Matt Boyle

Posted on 03/29/2012 6:08:47 AM PDT by nhwingut

Surveillance video of George Zimmerman arriving at a Sanford, Fla. police station indicates what may be an injury to the back of his head, a Daily Caller analysis shows.

ABC News published the video Wednesday evening. Zimmerman is the man who shot and killed 17-year-old black teen Trayvon Martin a month ago.

“A police surveillance video taken the night that Trayvon Martin was shot dead shows no blood or bruises on George Zimmerman,” ABC News reporter Matt Gutman wrote, noting that Zimmerman told police “he shot Martin after he was punched in the nose, knocked down and had his head slammed into the ground.”

Sanford Police Department Police Report

Click the above link to the SCRIB.com image of the Sanford Police Report regarding the arrival of officers on the scene.

Go to the 4th paragraph up from the bottom of the last page which begins with..... [I asked the subject in the red jacket .........]

and ends with the following:

[Quote:] "Zimmerman was also bleeding from his nose and back of the head." [end quote].

Conflict between what the Police Report contains and what the media and others are protraying.

In the second photo, the racist cop has a Mohawk that extends right down the middle of his face!

Why is it important for the general public to know about the head injury at this time unless the court of public opinion somehow trumps the real judicial system?

The court of public opinion matters, and it matters now. The far left is hoping for riots over this, and getting the facts out to the public will reduce the severity of whatever violence they are able to induce. Spike Lee is tweeting (repeatedly) the wrong address for Zimmerman, putting an innocent elderly couple in danger. The usual racist black "leaders" are using this to build their own power and wealth. We need the facts out there because the other side is a danger to innocent people.

The police report said that the first responder found him bleeding from the nose and the back of the head. So unless this is truly a big police conspiracy to deny justice to a poor black youth, there’s not really much of an issue here. If they try to take this to court, the defense will have the police report, the police eyewitnesses and the ensuing medical reports to place alongside the prosecution’s grainy low-res video.

Anderson Cooper 314.76 was doing his best to downplay zimmerman’s injuries.

All those things you stated, how the left is using this story for their own gain,

should be THE story.

That’s what my “so what” was intended to bring out. The answers to “so what?” is the left’s incitement to riot, the media’s bias, and leftist racism looking for an excuse to vent itself.

You can also see it a bit when he leans his head over at around the 12-13s mark.

Take note that ABC was sure to cover up his head with their banner for a large part of the video.

Since:
Drugs are mentioned in Trayvon tweets

Zimmerman stated in his intial 911 call

Police did a toxicaligy report on the body

Skittles and AZ Tea are street names for ecstacy and PCP laced marijuana

I want to know:

Where the initial report of him purchasing these two items came from.

If there are any reports of the two snack items at the scene.

If the 7-11 store was interviewed and confirmed the purchases

You can also see a knot on his head and wetness or blood on his collar. It is extremely visible if you play with contrast.

It doesn't matter, the police have his clothing and I'm sure they took pictures and there will be an EMS report. It would require the EMT and police to lie. It only matters because ABC started running with no injuries.

There is also a point when Zimmerman gets out of the car and the officer is checking the back of Zimmerman's head.

Indeed.

Just like the LA police and OJ. . .on the spur of the moment, 100’s of officers, medical personnel and witnesses came together to concoct a story with the aim of framing OJ.

There are a few interviews, which seem to be missing in the Saga of St. Skittles. Seems some simple assignments to aspiring reporters would be:

1. Talk to EMS about Zimmerman’s lack of injuries

2. Talk to clerk at the Skittle shop, and try to get a still photo of St. Skittles at the cash register

3. Talk to the girlfriend, and ask her who she called after she heard a fight start and the phone go dead.

4. Interview some of Martin’s friends/fellow Webelos Scouts, so they can talk about what a great guy he was

5. Find Martin’s last known Tweet or text, and fawn over its deep meaning

6. Show me the Skittles - find somebody who actually found his Skittles and Iced Tea, who would hold them up to the camera, and lament the loss.

I think I know why we haven’t seen any of these stories.

It is still “innocent until proven guilty” if the suspect is a black or muslime. . .but NEVER if the suspect is White. . .and it appears now, if the suspect is Hispanic he has lost that presumption, too.

Also, I don’t know where there is a point in that clip where one could see Zimmerman’s face clear enough to determine if his nose was broken.

We will know more soon enough. Either when it goes to trial or they decide not to take it to trial. The information will come out.

What I want to know is why I keep clicking on these Zimmerman threads?

I just can’t seem to help it.

Yahoo is trumpeting the police video as proof that Zimmerman was not injured, even though the paramedics had cleaned him up and you can’t really tell much in the video.

I saw it on Fox this morning.

Speaking of Fox, I tape Fox and Friends every morning along with that early show that follows it ... absolutely the best news on television. Conservative hosts, some lighthearted fun and you’re up to speed on everything.

Off topic, but it annoys me when people here bash Fox. They have some despicable hosts and guests but they are fair and balanced.

Zimmerman was also ‘treated’ at the scene. Some ‘tech’ has the information - and there’s a filed report. Any old fashioned reporters out there?

Nope. All reporters today were inspired by Woodward and Bernstein, and who think their primary purpose is to change the world.
