Police: Zimmerman says Trayvon decked him with one blow then began hammering his head
Orlando Sentinel ^ | March 26, 2012 | Rene Stutzman

Posted on 03/26/2012 8:41:12 AM PDT by maggief

With a single punch, Trayvon Martin decked the Neighborhood Watch volunteer who eventually shot and killed the unarmed 17-year-old, then Trayvon climbed on top of George Zimmerman and slammed his head into the sidewalk several times, leaving him bloody and battered, authorities have revealed to the Orlando Sentinel.

That is the account Zimmerman gave police, and much of it has been corroborated by witnesses, authorities say.

Zimmerman has not spoken publicly about what happened, but that night, Feb. 26, and in later meetings he described and re-enacted for police what he says happened.

In his version of events, he had turned around and was walking back to his SUV when Trayvon approached him from behind, the two exchanged words then Trayvon punched him in the nose, sending him to the ground, and began beating him.

I know this will come as a surprise to one as young as you, many of us don’t live on, or are a member of, FB.

Never will.

Based upon your postings, pardon me if I insist upon a link for proof as your word is hardly credible.

So you’re saying that Zimmerman’s dad was a state judge in Virginia 20 years ago, 700 miles and 4 states away, but he has good local Florida police connections? I think that’s a stretch.

Why wouldn’t his dad have ties to the local police dept? He’s STILL an attorney. You’re not from the legal profession are you? I can tell.

I’m your personal concierge of links? It’s at Justice for Trayvon at facebook and they generate posts that are quite tame. If I see the video when I’m over there, I’ll copy the link. I’m not making a special trip. There’s another thread on George Zim’s dad. I put that link on this thread. Daddy is telling the media he is retired military but for some reason, doesn’t want o mention that he’s a current attorney in Fla. Dad’s an omitter.

“Whatever”

“Peace out”

Nah. . I just can’t revert to juvenile-speak.

Have a nice day.

A local attorney would have an adversarial relationship with the local police department.

here's daddy.

I've read that VANITY and there is no linked evidence of what you claim. FWIW, it is also stated that his father is a retired military person but yet no information on his rank or how many years he spent in the service and in what capacity.

Furthermore, you attempt to cite DU as a reliable source of the crap you are posting. That in itself should get your sorry ass banned........

Bottom line is that DU does occasionally have factual data. The problem is that in many cases, they dig up irrelevant data, or draw illogical conclusions from the data.

I read that Zimmerman left the country. (not worth copying and pasting). Here’s a link summary and apparently, the Black Panthers had an epic fail. Only 9 people signed up for their stupid deal.

When I come to Fr and get slammed for my belief that a minor was the victim of wrongful death, my ambition to share is muted.

When you come to FR and make statements about private investigations you are involved in but can't divulge what you claim to know, it's no wonder you have a lack of ambition...........It goes hand in hand with your total lack of credibility.

This is a forum and you are not in charge of free speech for Amerika. If you call me a sorry ass again, I’ll report abuse.

Man, you jump to a lot of conclusions. He had the ability to scrub George’s priors? Do you have info that he did this? His daddy got Martin’s record released? Again, do you have info he did that?

Sounds like you hate judges.

If somebody not you is too lazy to sign up at facebook, that's no my problem. I don't have a secret investigation. I called a reporter to connect the dots if there are any.

You are baiting me so that I'll say something bad and get banned. We are done as of right now.

I said he had the ability to scrub the record. I didn't say that he actually did it. Judges killed Terri Schiavo who was not PVS. If George Zimmerman can be suspicious of blacks, I can distrust judges and tons of lawyers for cause.

That's how it works apparently. George Zimmerman is free to be ignorant and I'm free to distrust judges.

Why is Zimmerman free to be ignorant but you are only free to distrust? Aren’t you, too, free to be ignorant?

And you can deny it all you want but you STRONGLY suggested his daddy, a retired judge, scrubbed his son’s record and released “Trayvon’s” record.

It’s no only obvious you hate judges, it’s also obvious you hate people named Zimmerman. And you may even suffer a little from white guilt.

Any person who cites Democratic Underground and Justice for Trayvon at facebook as reliable sources of information here on FreeRepublic is a sorry ass troll and should be banned from this site.........

My husbands an attorney. He doesn’t have any ties to the local police dept. I can tell you’re not from the legal profession.
