That’s what I though. So why is the story written as if it was expected that Martin’s DNA would be on the gun. There is no reason that it should have been.

In hindsight, Zimmerman should have rubbed the gun handle in Trayvon’s hand I guess. If only he would have known that he was going to be railroaded.

this story says only ON THE GRIP. So why the selective testing? The fact they do not test on the rest of the gun is suspect. If the gun was tested w/o the defense expert present there is a surpression and spoiliation of evidence supression motion(s) inevitable.

I just went back and watched part of the interrogation video of Zimmerman. He claims that Martin had one hand on Zimmerman's nose and one on his mouth when Zimmerman shifted, exposing his gun as the jacket and shirt moved up on Zimmerman's right hip.

Per Zimmerman (and he re-enacts it), Martin slid his hand down Zimmerman's side, Zimmerman pinned it again Zimmerman's side with his elbow/upper arm. Zimmerman drew the gun and shot Martin.

Under the scenario he describes and demonstrates, Martin's DNA should not have been on the grip of Zimmerman's handgun.
