When "Neighborhood Watch" Gets Out of Hand

Big, I also saw the funeral director speak that there was no bruising, cuts or signs of a fight on hands or face he had to cover.

I'm just happy an arrest was finally made. I hope it doesn't come out the police department was incompetent and screwed up any evidence, etc. as is the fear. I'm content to the let the legal process work and come to a conclusion.

The funeral director (who works for the Martin family) is hardly a credible witness. The coroner is a credible witness. I would trust the coroner's opinion. But even if the funeral director was a credible witness, his testimony is still meaningless. Why would Martin have bruises? Zimmerman's claim is that he was sucker-punched from behind and then Martin jumped on top of him and started beating him. If that is what happened, then I wouldn't expect Martin to have any bruises. The guy with the bruises would be Zimmerman. If anything, the funeral director's testimony helps to confirm Zimmerman's story.

Today after viewing that photograph, Dershowitz blasted the prosecutors even more than he did before, calling them "not only immoral, but stupid". He accused them of committing a "grave ethical violation".

The case is supposed to be sealed now. How did that picture get out, where did ABC get it from? The prosecution? The defense? The guy that took it on his cell phone?

I would certainly think that ABC News would be smart enough to authenticate the photo before they would release it. They would lose a ton of credibility and do serious damage to their reputation if they released a photo that they did not authenticate.

The picture was supposedly taken at the scene right after the incident. This was obviously taken before the paramedics arrived and cleaned Zimmerman up.

There was 40-plus seconds of struggle as record on police tapes. Yes, I'd expect some physical evidence of that, on both men. And yes, we'll wait for the coroner's report.

This picture was taken by a citizen who arrived on the scene after the fight. It was not taken by the police.
