I don't see that this will be relevant. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. I suppose we'll see.ok if you listen to the 911 tape how long was Zimmerman on the phone with the 911 operator AFTER he said "ok" to not following...How long was he on after the ok ??? when you have the answer I will show you why Zimmerman is at fault
Following someone is NOT an invitation to be physically attacked! If someone is following you and that's ALL they've done up to that point, you DO NOT have a legal right to physically attack them! Call the police, run to a friend's house, but you can't run up and punch them in the nose. You have ZERO legal right to do so. Now, if I've physically attacked you, then yes, you now have the right to defend yourself. If the prosecution can show that Trayvon could NOT have possibly attacked Zimmerman FIRST, then yes, they've got a case. Without video and credible eyewitness testimony, it's simply his word against a dead teenager's. I think I smell some reasonable doubt!you can personally disagree with the term "aggressor", but in the letter of the law that is exactly what he is. it doesn't necessarily mean he was aggressive, it just means he initiated, which he clearly did by profiling and then following martin, by his own admission on recorded tape.
