I don’t know. I just saw this on WFTV:

Bill Sheaffer:
I disagree that State is messing up. He is doing a masterful job of getting the Defense’s star witness saying that GZ was not having his head slammed into concrete. This is important because if he wasn’t in ‘fear of great bodily harm’... there would not be reason to kill TM if it was just a fight.

Bill Sheaffer:
Remember this witness doesn’t provide the injuries with the fight. I’m commenting on this particular witness and was pointing out what the State was trying to do, in light of comments that they were ‘messing up’. And remember, forget everything you know and think of what does the jury know to this point. And from this witness, there was no reason for the shooting. However, future witnesses— may provide reason. And that’s why GZ HAS TO TESTIFY
Of course, there is still the little matter of the lacerations to the back of Zimmerman’s head...where did those come from?
Yes, It's perfectly logical that GZ bashed his own head on the concrete several times in order to provide a plausible explanation for shotting TM....sheesh, these media idiots need to work on their stories.
BS tends to pull for the prosecution at times IMHO. Maybe he feels obligated to do this in order to remain more neutral in his role as a TV station legal analyst.
In any case, JG stepped away to call 911, so the testimony that he did not see something does not imply that something did not happen while he was calling 911. That should be obvious... but then, as has been noted before, this is a weird trial...
>> He is doing a masterful job of getting the Defense’s star witness saying that GZ was not having his head slammed into concrete.
Yeah, right, Bill. You nonsensical old gasbag.
I’m dyin’ to hear how... er... mastur-job-fully Bernie handles that minor complication of Z’s bloody lip and scalp. Maybe he can just retouch it with a flesh colored crayon while the jury watches.
