Within the next two weeks, the public will know exactly what George Zimmerman, in his own words, told authorities about the night he shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

-snip-

Among Lester's other rulings: "Tests" performed on Zimmerman, likely referring to a voice-stress test performed by police, the rough equivalent of a lie-detector test, can be made public, but most of Zimmerman's phone records will not be.

Thousands of emails sent to police about the case will be released but not photos depicting Trayvon's body.

The gun was test fired. Re DNA analysis on gun swabs see p 105 of the discovery. Quick summary: no TM DNA on gun, at least 3 persons DNA on holster TM not excluded.

Well...now we know the real reason GZ wife was arrested yesterday....

No confession statements made by GZ to police...his statements are consistent

His voice stress test shows no deception...he was being honest

Bad day for the Thug Nazi Angela Corey

It doesn’t suprise me in the least that the “Persecuting Attorney” in this case has been deliberatly withholding Exculpatory Evidence!!

That's not what this is about. The prosecution has not been withholding this information from the defense, only the media. The prosecution AND defense both filed motions seeking that this information be sealed and not publicly released.

Tray reportedly shot from an “intermediate” distance of 13 inches or more; still close enough that one might wonder why nothing splashed back from Tray upon the weapon? Does simply grabbing at a gun suffice to put DNA on it?

You mean, the Prosecution has been withholding the accurate info from the media? Or do you mean the media has been withholding that accurate info from the Public?

Two people one laying on the other close contact! TM had stippling on body per autopsy. Also powder burns on clothing. Great Link: http://www.pathologyexpert.com/boards/forensics/gsw.htm Range of Fire: Contact: muzzle of gun touches target - Tight: fouling in tissue, muzzle stamp - Loose: fouling on skin and in tissue, searing Close: <6" Stippling & Fouling NOTE THIS> Intermediate: 6-30" Stippling Distant: >30" Neither (Distances approximate and depend on many variables. For accurate assessment need to test fire weapon with ammunition used.) Just data, no argument my me.
