I'll need to see a better source

Name one that hasn't already spun this happening. I don't believe there will be a source telling it like it really is, as we've seen already there's a push to convict Zimmerman before there's even a hearing of any sort. Not to mention the sources which will surely be "careful" politically now that Obama and the Governor are in play.

Look how the media has operated in this election...they've all but taken Newt out of being heard at all. As one source stated .."We can't have a Newt/Obama debate". So there's no reason to eliminate the less popular sites. Which just might be those who do have some resemblance of the truth.

Preferably primary sources instead of some insinuation by this wagist clown saying that he's a drug dealer out at 3am when the shooting happened at 6:17. That's no different than Al Sharpton or New Black Panther stuff.

Primary sources are forensic results, business documents, phone calls, 1sthand information. Secondary sources are media, blogs, secondhand information.

Until some of the forensic results are released, everything is speculation. The only facts are as follows.

1. Zimmerman called and thought Martin was suspicious.
2. Zimmerman followed Martin and got out of his car.
3. At some point they were in close contact range and there was a physical confrontation.
4. Zimmerman had a wound on his nose and his head. That does NOT mean he was jumped or that he was hit in the back of his head - being passed as fact by some people.
5. At some point Martin was shot and killed.
6. Police arrived around 6:17 and conducted a manslaughter investigation. Zimmerman was cuffed, detained, and taken to the station. He was later released.
7. Investigation is ongoing. At this time, either there is no probable cause to arrest Zimmerman, or the DA/Police don't think they can get a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt. That could change when more facts are in.
