“Because it’s clear that, whoever instigated the altercation, Zimmerman followed Trayvon that night. He was instructed not to, but he did anyway”
I read, hear this over and over again. Zimmerman got out of his vehicle and when told ‘we don’t need you to do that’ apparently stopped right there. Theres absolutely no evidence anywhere showing he continued to follow.
I have idiots tell me over and over he shouldn’t have followed. But he stopped when asked to. We can’t go to a moment before he was told not to.
You’re allowed to follow people anyway. GZ was on his phone it’s not like he was going to attack, he was telling the 911 operator where TM was heading and what address TM was near. Look, the black people who are all riled up know damn well that out of shape, older Zimmerman didn’t chase down a 17 year old in shape teen male. They know TM was the stereotypical aggressor who was gonna knock out the cracka for staring at him. TM was to safety, he was close to his dads gf apt. Instead he doubled back and confronted GZ with a punch in the face, and it was done IMO so that Jabba Da Hut illiterate girl who took the stand could get a good ear full of TM giving a beat down. As others stated she probably encouraged it and that’s why she went MIA until tracked down by Crump.
