ABC News ^ | 5/16/12 | Matt Gutman

Posted on 05/16/2012 4:12:42 AM PDT by notsofastmyfriend

A medical report compiled by the family physician of accused Trayvon Martin murderer George Zimmerman and obtained exclusively by ABC News found that Zimmerman was diagnosed with a "closed fracture" of his nose, a pair of black eyes, two lacerations to the back of his head and a minor back injury the day after he fatally shot Martin during an alleged altercation.

Even more so the autopsy report that Martin’s knuckles were cut and bruised. If this was available to Angela Corey, her career here in Jax is done. Just another establsihment politician will bite the dust. The worry is that any credible sounding Democrat could be considered to take that seat away from Republicans. Not a good sign for Jacksonville.

Even Dershowitz (sp?) said she over reached on this one.

‘Trayvon Martin murderer George Zimmerman’

Murderer? When was he convicted of murder?

Time to send in the FBI thugs. We need to get out of Afghanistan as we have our own Marxist/Secular Taliban in DC.

Noticed that.
They are starting to insert words so that they can sway a potential jury.

The rest of the story oozes with media bias too.

For anyone who listened to the audio presentation to the end, I believe the reporter misspoke when he said that the law would not apply if Zimmerman provoked an attack. I recommend this article in full analyzing the Florida stand your ground and self-defense laws but here is a relevant part:

Finally, Florida law guaranteeing self-defense rights express excludes anyone who “Initially provokes the use of force against himself or herself.” Fla. Stats. 776.041. As is typical in other states, the provoker can only regain self-defense rights if:

(2)(a) Such force is so great that the person reasonably believes that he or she is in imminent danger of death or great bodily harm and that he or she has exhausted every reasonable means to escape such danger other than the use of force which is likely to cause death or great bodily harm to the assailant; or (b) In good faith, the person withdraws from physical contact with the assailant and indicates clearly to the assailant that he or she desires to withdraw and terminate the use of force, but the assailant continues or resumes the use of force.

The only way that this statute would be relevant would be if Zimmerman initially attacked Martin, and then withdrew. Zimmerman has made no such claim, nor does the M narrative.

http://www.opposingviews.com/i/politics/florida%E2%80%99s-self-defense-laws

There is absolutely no evidence anywhere in the public record that Zimmerman "provoked" an attack. Even if he did, his injuries confirm his account that he was on his back being savagely beaten and therefore in reasonable apprehension of grave bodily harm with no possibility of retreat and thus affording him the right to use deadly force in self-defense.

Now they will have to investigate the Doctor and show that he is a racist so they can then claim he falsified the exam report.

It makes no difference, Mr. Zimmerman was telling the TRUTH and that is all that matters.

How does a prosecutor prove a case of second degree murder when it’s shown the defendant was beaten to a pulp before he resorted to defending himself?

Now it’s easy to comprehend why the police didn’t charge Zimmerman right after the incident.

Remember the huge national story that the family undertaker said Trayvon’s knuckles had no bruises?

Yet we now see that was at best more misinformation.

And they charged Z with 2nd degree murder under these facts???

Caucasians and half Caucasians are required to accept a broken nose and multiple lacerations when said injuries are administered by young African American honor roll students.

The only time a Caucasian is entitled to defend himself is after he is murdered........

Overheard this on the radio this morning on a black radio station. The black radio host insisted that Zimmerman's cuts, bruises and black eyes may have existed BEFORE Zimmerman had ANY contact with Martin.

It's pretty disgusting to see such a response to the facts of this case.
