I don’t know. Enough of a distance that the blood from the close range of the blast was not absorbed on GZ or his weapon.

All that matters is if Martin was far enough away that Zimmerman could have escaped, and even that is questionable if Zimmerman had been attacked and was dazed.

I don’t think I would shoot beyond 25 feet just because it gets hard to explain.

I’m not sure there would have been significant blood where the bullet entered. The bleeding probably would have been internal and on the exit side.

I’m googling around and most of the info I’m seeing says that bullet entrance wounds don’t bleed much:

If your contention is that Z had to have shot Martin from a distance because there was no blood on him, I think you’re on shaky ground.

Or do you have evidence that blood splatters forward from a bullet wound like in a Hollywood movie? If so, please present it and maybe we’ll favor your pov.

What makes you think that blood spurts forward from a close range “blast”?

Movies?

Do you know how small a 9mm bullet is?

You know, you are a prime example of the reason self defense shootings shouldn’t go to trial, because there are FAR TOO many people who think they know everything but in actuality KNOW NOTHING.

Would not want you on my jury or anyone else’s jury at all.
