I’ve been wondering if Martin tried to get Zimmerman’s gun.

Incredible. He’s got the body of an extremely fit 25 year old.

If Trayvon was sitting on George's chest, pounding on him, how did George get to his gun?

In the original statement to police by Zimmerman, he said that Martin grabbed for his gun, so he grabbed for it, and during the struggle... boom... Martin keeled over backwards.

.he KNEW he was armed and where it was, whereas Trayvon didn’t know either one when he jumped him.

IIRC, Mr. Zimmerman said that while he was on his back, Mr. Martin saw his gun (which was in his holster/waistband), and made some remark like "Now I'm going to get you", and grabbed for the gun. Zimmerman did too. Guess who probably got it by the barrel and pulled on it while it was aimed at his chest?

Not if his front room window is 30 feet from where the dead guy bled all over the place.

What the hell took this little tidbit so long to see the light?

“The actions by all of these in this case are reprehensible.”

INCLUDING the PROSECUTOR! Zimmerman should be freed NOW, and sue Florida for $$$$$!

The best site I’ve seen for info on the Martin/Zimmerman case. Extensive photos, videos of Martin fighting, all kinds of stuff.

IIRC, the gun was found with a "stove-pipe" malfunction, where the empty case from the round fired does not eject completely and remains stuck between the breechface and barrel.

This would support the idea that Trayvon may have had a hold of the guns's slide when it was fired.

Of course, it was a Kel-Tec, so it may have just malfunctioned on its own.
