I agree that the dispatcher may not have had the legal authority to tell Zimmerman to cease and desist.
However the dispatcher still speaks with the Voice of Authority.
Most people, when told by a 911 dispatcher not to do something, won’t do it.
What’s so hard to understand?

LOL. Not all of us are sheep. Some of us with Mensa level IQs too often know we’re dealing with mental midgets. When I was about 5, my sister and the almost 12 year old son of my dad’s friend were out in a motor boat on a small lake where they had a cottage. A ranger got irate and said they had to come back immediately. My father and the other farther said they weren’t doing anything wrong. The ranger got irate. They asked him to state the statute. The ranger said they had to be in hailing distance. It was pointed out that they were both in seeing and hearing distance. They made him look a complete fool. The ranger was totally out of his league. It was a good life lesson.
Then what bearing does it have on any criminal culpability on the part of Zimmerman?
Voice of Authority?
Can you show me the link for that one in the Florida statutes?
