The 911 operator is not a LEO. He doesn’t have to obey their commands. Ignoring a 911 operator is not a crime.
That is what I thought. The 911 operators in my county in
Ohio are not LEOs either.
So where is this “the police told him not to follow” stuff
coming from? I suspect that it was made up to paint Zimmerman
as a loose cannon or somebody that was looking for a fight,
and thus negating his claim of self defense. Even if it was.

Not necessarily true.
In some places, 911 operators and police dispatch operate under a commission of the local sheriff/state patrol.
They sure as heck ARE LEO and you ignore them at your own peril.
