That is what GZ said. We really do no know what happened for sure. 5. GZ can stay in hid truck and let the cops see if this guy was up to something. GZ did not even know the name of the street. How would he know if TM should be there or nol?

Here is the complete footage of Zimmerman himself walking several detectives through the complex and explaining second by second what happened.

You may choose to believe him or not, but the autopsy and forensics reports do not contradict anything he says in this 12 minute video, and eye witness accounts support Zimmerman's description of the events. Police also say his story never varied.

Whether or not TM belonged in the complex is somewhat immaterial. It was not his right to be there that caused Zimmerman to call. It was his behavior. It was rainy, and TM was not walking on the sidewalk, but rather was next to the houses looking in the windows. There was no overhang on the sides of the houses to excuse TM of seeking some shelter. Incidentally, the house where Zimmerman first saw him was a house that had been robbed, and regarding TM;s right to be in the community, other robbers who had been caught were young, black males living in the neighborhood.

From the time TM first began moving away rapidly, whether running or sort of skipping, to the time of the confrontation, based upon phone records and witness testimony, was four minutes. TM, supposedly a football player, had four minutes to go less than the length of a football field. In fact, one of the prosecution witnesses, TM’s friend, testified that TM told her he did reach his father’s girlfriend’s house at some point in their first calls. TM was back to safety, probably long before Zimmerman even reached the “t” of the sidewalks, and chose to return to confront Zimmerman. Although she did not testify to such, I wouldn’t be surprised if she did not egg on the fight since she alluded to TM having a history of fighting in her testimony.
