He was at that house watching the NBA all star game. At half time he went to the 7-11 and was on his way back when Zimmerman saw him.

He went before tip-off of the All-Star Game, not at halftime as is reported. The All-Star Game began at 7:00 EST, with a tip-off time of 7:37 EST.

The police were called to the site of the shooting at 7:17 EST, twenty minutes before tip-off. "He went at halftime of the All-Star Game to buy Skittle for his little brother" sounds good, but Einstein's Space-Time Continuum says it couldn't have happened that way. Does it make Trayvon Martin guilty of something? No. However, it's a mistruth issued by his family after the killing and snapped up by the media, which didn't check the facts.
