George Zimmerman told investigators that while he was on the phone with a Sanford police dispatcher reporting Trayvon Martin as suspicious, the teenager was circling his vehicle on foot, a source familiar with the investigation told the Orlando Sentinel.
The source said Zimmerman's account of events hasn't changed in his several statements to police — in which he said he was so unnerved by the teen's behavior that he rolled up his window to avoid a confrontation. However, he never mentioned any of that while talking to the dispatcher.
The details revealed by the source provide new insight into what Zimmerman said happened in the earliest moments of his contact with Trayvon. And they may reveal the inconsistencies alluded to by prosecutors in the case.
One of those inconsistencies: Zimmerman told police Trayvon had his hand over Zimmerman's mouth during their fight on the night he shot Trayvon.
The Sentinel's source confirmed that Zimmerman's statements include that allegation. But authorities do not believe that happened, the source told the Sentinel, because on one 911 call, someone can be heard screaming for help. If it were Zimmerman, as he claims, his cries were not muffled, the source said.
Zimmerman also told police, the source told the Sentinel, that while the two were on the ground, Trayvon reached for Zimmerman's gun, and the two struggled over it.

Is this maybe what happened? Zimmerman is knocked to the ground, Martin is on top of him smashing his head on the pavement, Zimmerman screams for help, Martin puts his hand over Zimmerman’s mouth to stop him from screaming for help. When Martin stops the smashing to shut Zimmerman up, Zimmerman is able to reach for his gun and in the ensuing struggle Martin is shot.
I can speculate just as well as the press and prosecution, see?
source....The Duke case had a lot of “sources”, too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Yes, and just like the Duke case... this will end badly - embarrassing badly - for Angela “Nifong” Corey and the race pimping Revs when Zimmerman is cleared of all bogus charges.
Perhaps to push the black zer0 turnout from 60% to 99%...
In other words, this is just the normal run-o’-the-mill mechanism for ‘rat GOTV.
Dan 8:23 (Douay-Rheims)...
And after their reign [at the end], when iniquities shall be grown up, there shall arise a king of a shameless face [not his face per se, but his countenance...the way he appears to believers], and understanding dark sentences [he seems to know exactly what to do...exactly what his evil will begat...but we do not].Just saying...
We have here another really stupid assessment from a reporterette. Saying Martin’s hand over Zimmerman’s mouth was at odds with Zimmerman’s statement that he was screaming for help is ludicrous. The two actions are not exclusionary, in fact, they are in succession. The mostly likely reason Martin would have clamped his hand over Zimmerman’s mouth is because Zimmerman was screaming for help because Martin was on top of him, beating the crap out of him.
“...is guilty of racial profiling...”
Is that a misdemeanor or a felony? Oh, wait, right. It’s not a crime.
There is no conflict, here.
If someone is straddling your chest, and trying to stop you from screaming by putting their hand over your mouth, how effective do you think that is going to be? Assuming you are not just lying there passively, but are struggling and trying to scream.
“source familiar with the investigation told the Orlando Sentinel”
Getting really sick of seeing garbage like this posted at DU and 3 minutes later it gets posted here.
So what? That means squat....who says he had to mention that to report the person who eventually attacked him?
By the way, the media keeps ignoring the evidence of Zimmerman's bloody head, but continues to remind us that Zimmerman's attacker, Saint Skittles of Sanford, was "unarmed".
If Zimmerman was going to shoot his attacker, why did he call 911? Answer: he wasn’t planning to shoot Saint Skittles of Sanford, but when Zimmerman was attacked and had his head bloodied, he defended his life.
I don’t think the trial will happen, if there IS a trial, until 2013. Then Obama’s successor will have to deal with the racists who will loot and burn cities.
Why didn’t she call someone that night or speak up the next day while she was tweeting about Trayvon’s passing? Why’d she wait until 3/19 to speak to anyone?
Maybe to cover his intents?
Now I’m not really saying that Zimmerman was out to cap a black man. I Just threw that out in response to thé claim Martin was out to beat a white man for fun.
Done.

Then stay away from DU. Problem solved.
Why?
Beating whitey seems like the latest black pass time to me.
Seems like they go out of their way to gang up on whites all over the country.
I’m surprised you haven’t capped a few, because you thought they were a threat to you, then.
Do you run from little black grandmothers as well?
There was a thread on FR within the last 10 days where someone had posted the supposed girlfriend’s (more of a Hussein’s composite gf) facebook entries. It was obvious she wasn’t on the phone with him and wasn’t so devistated that she had to be hospitalized which prevented her from attending her beloved’s funeral. Yes, the girl exists but they weren’t romatically involved and they weren’t on the phone together that night. Put all that in the garbage because it was invented for the sympathy vote.
