Has it been confirmed that Trayvon’s body lay in the morgue three days unclaimed? If so, have the parents, the attys, or FR’s Trayvon-Truth-Squad addressed this issue? It seems rather seminal to the nature of the kid and his family. Iow, either he made a habit of disappearing w’out calling in to say where he was, or else his parents are purely reprehensible for not taking aggressive action in trying to locate him.

What am I missing?

No. It's been confirmed that Travon's father called the police the next day (to report missing son), and learned about the incident later that day.

The next morning, when he woke up, Tracy realized that Trayvon had not returned home.

“I started making calls, and I reached my nephew,” Martin says. “He said he hadn’t seen Trayvon. Then I really started getting worried. So I called the Sheriff’s department to file a missing persons report. I let them know it hadn’t been 24 hours, but it was unusual for Trayvon not to return home.”

Three police cars soon pulled up and a detective asked Tracy for a recent picture of his son. “I had one on my phone, so I showed it to him,” Tracy says, his voice tightening. “He told me he was going to show me a photo and ask if it was my son. He pulled out a photo of Trayvon’s dead body. And the nightmare began.”

It would also make it seem really weird that the girlfriend hadn’t followed up on anything if she really was talking to him on the phone when the fight started. Surely the police would have taken and examined Trayvon’s cell phone...
