The information that has been reported strongly indicates that the only “investigation” that took place was taking Zimmerman’s statement, taking statements from neighbors who only heard noises, and one who saw the very last thing that happened. Perhaps the gun was dusted for prints and a ballistic sample taken.

Again you conveniently leave out an important piece of the puzzle. How about the fact that Mr. Zimmerman was on the phone with the SPD dispatcher describing the situation and asking for police intervention minutes before the altercation occurred?

And? Does that provide proof that the 17 year old initiated the confrontation? If it does, then give details.

The gun used is surely being held by the police. But I’ve heard he is still carrying, so maybe he has a 2nd weapon.
