I heard that GZ's pistol still had the empty casing in the chamber when the cops got it. This would indicate that the slide had not retracted during firing to eject the empty and load the next round. And why would it not have done so? Because innocent Trayvon had his fist closed over it, trying to tear it out of GZ's hand.

If this wasn't self-defense, nothing is.

Interesting. I wonder what fingerprints and DNA showed on that gun???

No, the case was found in the grass and I believe it was under TM’s body.

A failure to eject in a semi-automatic can also be caused by having the barrel in contact with the target. This fits the up close and personal nature of the fight.
