The boy was unarmed and minding his own business, he was the one on the tape screaming for help, yet the neighborhood watch leader is claiming self-defense. Unbelievable.

Of course Zimmerman is going to say he was attacked, it serves his defense. I find it difficult to believe that someone with a gun is going to be screaming for help from someone who is smaller than they are. And he did get out of his car when emergency advised him not to. At any rate, the FBI and DOJ are said to be looking into this, so thank god that Zimmerman isn't just being given a free pass.

Zimmerman's story didn't add up and one investigator wanted to charge him the night of the shooting.

Parents will say anything for their children sometimes and this is the first time that this particular statement has come up, it hasn't even been mentioned by the police as part of Zimmerman's official statement. I don't believe one word of anything this father says and it's not really admissible, since he was not there and only has secondhand information.

Zimmerman's father doesn't have any evidence, he's only going off his son's statement and that is secondhand information to him. He was not a witness, as he was nowhere near the scene to corroborate anything his son says.

On edit, reading again, I'm starting to detect some sarcasm here.

It was hard to believe it was Zimmerman, it sounded like someone younger and the older a man is, the less likely he is to reach certain octaves and decibels. Of course they can't claim it's Martin's voice without a sample, but that doesn't change the fact that their analysis did not match Zimmerman's voice. There are big holes in this case and it really needs to be investigated properly.
