I believe ot was a case of self defense.

Zimmerman noticed Martin and called it in to 911 and began following him.

Martin noticed him following and told his girlfriend...and didn’t like it one bit.

At this point neither Martin or Zimmerman had broken any laws at all.

Zimmerman was told by the 911 dispatcher he shouldn’t follow and I believe Zimmerman stopped trying to follow at that point because he’d lost site of Martin anyway. He continued to the next row of apartments to get an address like he told the dispatcher he would.

In the mean time, I believe Martin had circled back and was now watching Zimmerman. It was a mistake (but not illegal) and he should have just gone on home.

Once Zimmerman got the address he was returning to his car when he was confronted by Martin.

Martin asked him if he had a problem. Zimmerman said no. Martin said he did now and punched Zimmwerman in the nose, breaking it and knocking Zimmerman to the ground. At this point, the first illegal act had occurred with Martin assaulting Zimmerman.

Then, while he was down, Martin got on top og him, grabbed him by the hair, and began beating his head against the sidewalk. The assault now became a more serious crime, with clear intent to do major bodliy harm, perhaps even to kill.

Zimmerman began screaming. This is when the witness came out and saw what was going on. The witness indicated to them that he was going to call 911, also indicating in testimony that it was Zimmerman who was screaming, and Martin who was on top of Zimmerman.

When the witness went back inside, and the beating continued. Zimmerman feared for his life. He pulled his gun and shot Martin. We do not know if there was a struggle for the gun. We do know that Martin was shot once in the chest from close range.

I do not believe that what Zimmerman did was illegal at all. He was defending his life and had waited, IMHO, longer than I would have to use his weapon.

The witness came back out after calling and hearing the shot, and saw Martin down and Zimmerman standing over him...who then told him to get help.

Zimmerman had not run away. He never acted like he was the assailant.

I believe this is what happened.

I believe the evidence we have heard of to date supports this scenario.

I believe this is why the Stanford Police did not charge Zimmerman.

I also believe that if Zimmerman gets a fair trial, he will be acqitted of both 2nd degree murder and manslaughter.

I also believe when he is acquitted, that Holder will bring Zimmerman up on Civil Rights charges and go through the entire charade again.
