Two of the witnesses in this case, both young males, could have intervened and prevented the need for Zimmerman to shoot Martin.

Zimmerman, screaming, begged eyewitness John Good to come help him. Good, watching from only 17 feet away, replied to Zimmerman that he was calling the police instead. Zimmerman screamed that the police were already on the way—that he needed Good’s help. Good could have knocked Martin off Zimmerman and stopped the deadly confrontation just by putting himself a bit at risk, but no, he didn’t want to get that involved, just like Kitty Genovese’s neighbors didn’t want to get involved.

There was another young male witness in this case, who told his wife, “stay away from the window, don’t look out, we don’t want to make this our problem.”

You get my point.

I think even THEY were afraid for their lives.

that he needed Good’s help.

I wonder how John Good sleeps at night.

Johnathan Manalo was the other.

And I think that explains the distress in Good’s voice when he recounted that night on the stand and the question that he thankfully was not asked.....

both young males, could have intervened and prevented the need for Zimmerman to shoot Martin.

And had that happened, TM would have been charged with assault (and more)....which in and of its self justifies GZ's self defense claim

I posited this hypothetical on another thread with hopes this is something the jury considers.
