Warning Graphic Photo: Possible New Evidence Shows George Zimmerman's Bloodied Head
ABC News ^ | April 20,2012 | MATT GUTMAN

Posted on 04/20/2012 6:36:49 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Zimmerman was treated at the scene by paramedics, then cuffed and driven in a police cruiser to the Sanford police station. He was questioned for hours and later released. In police surveillance video obtained last month by ABC News, Zimmerman's wounds are not apparent, and there were no bandages on his head.

Zimmerman was not admitted to a hospital or given stitches the night of the incident.

The person who took the photograph of a bloodied Zimmerman, asking not to be identified, told ABC News exclusively that they did not see the scuffle that night, but did hear it. The person recalled seeing Martin's prostrate body on the wet grass and said the gunpowder burns on Martin's gray hoodie were clearly visible.

The photographer said that after the shooting, Zimmerman asked the photographer to call his wife. When the photographer asked him what to say, Zimmerman blurted out, "Man, just tell her I shot someone."

Lawyers for the Martin family want to know why Zimmerman didn't go to the hospital ...

Inner city blacks often go to hospitals for bad colds - expense is no issue because they're not paying out of their own pocket ... But for people who are not rich beyond words, or have great health insurance or are on 'assistance' it costs a fortune to go to a hospital emergency room... I suspect Zimmerman knew that...

Uh...because he was _arrested_? and the injury, while serious, did not warrant practical release of a homicide suspect? Can’t be in jail & ER at the same time.

The picture was made by an I-phone but my Blackberry does it too.

And look how long it took for this photo to get out. Disgusting.

At the hearing this morning the “white Hispanic” Zimmerman looked like he was a close relative of Obama, even could have portrayed Obama’s son.

I just smiled at the irony of Obama’s statement.

If you watch the video at ABC they go into how the picture has time date and GPS location tags embedded in the picture. Only if you want to believe ABC because they still parrot other things as fact that only seem as speculation or un true about Zimmerman. remember it is ABC (All Barack Channel)!/s

Zimmerman's attorney just made a total a** of the State's witness. Apparenly, this investigator never read the medical report. Zimmerman's attorney offered him a copy.

That witness with 35 years expereince is going to puke his lunch!!

Could be but it would have got knocked off before the wound and I think its from a real good smash on the edge of the walk. The rest is gravity and the photo was taken so recent that he hadn’t even touched it yet. He was still stunned.

He wasn’t arrested at the time. That came later - with all the political pressure.

He drew that blood on his own head using Trayvon’s blood and a red Skillet!

So damn obvious!

Once again we see how little of what we are told or shown is true.

I could make a case it is more likely we live in the Matrix than in the world the MSM is trying to make us believe exists.

They can withhold so much information without raising suspicion they don’t even have to lie outright. It is lies by omission and they are experts at it.

One of the commentators made a good point. The state said they had no witnesses. Zimmerman's attorney said...okay...but I need some kind of witness for the state...

and called the state's investigator to the stand...and nailed him.

The commentator said...the state witness is now absolutely stuck with his testimony.

I tell ya...Perry Mason has returned.

Very early on there was a video of him getting out of a cop car in a police station with his head bloodied. Methinks he wasn’t exactly “free to go” at that point, so regardless of official labels he was, for most practical purposes, under arrest.

He was in police custody, handcuffed and not free to leave; that constitutes “arrest” even thought he wasn’t charged with a crime until later.

I haven't seen this.  I'd be interested in any links you might have.
