If Trayvon was sitting on George's chest, pounding on him, how did George get to his gun?
If he was carrying it IWB (inside the waistband), it seems to me it would be very difficult for him to reach the gun (reference the MMA pictures).
Just asking....
I would suggest not using the MMA pics as exact models of what Trayvon did. He wasn’t an expert.
Second, the witness quote never uses the words “sitting on Zimmerman’s chest”.
Does say “on top of him” and “astride him”.
This was at night and this witness wasn’t in immediate proximity, so all he could see is what he could see, at night and from his vantage point.
I would say Zimmerman had an advantage in one respect about the gun...he KNEW he was armed and where it was, whereas Trayvon didn’t know either one when he jumped him.
My money is on Z being able to find a way to get that gun, and I don’t believe for a second that this will be a problem for the defense to explain.
Just sayin’, though, the defense is not required to prove Zimmerman innocent...the prosecution is required to prove him guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
Just Asking? Maybe while Trayvon's hands were busy beating Zimmerman's head he forgot Zimmermans hands and the possibility that the gun was where they normally are, in his waistband.
I’ve been wondering if Martin tried to get Zimmerman’s 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.
