In reply to the discussion: Why Trayvon may have been heading north on the dog path and still not "doubling back" to ambush GZ [View all]Nevernose
(13,081 posts)Trayvon got past the T intersection and went a little ways south. He paused to catch his breath, still on the phone, not realizing that psycho-vigilante had gotten so crazy as to get out of his truck and follow him. Zimmerman moves at least to the T intersection -- whether he went past or not is irrelevant, though I think that's just Zimmerman's bullshit to justify his shooting. He sees Trayvon, grabs Trayvon's left shoulder with his left hand (remember that Zimmerman is left handed) and Trayvon elbows backward, popping Zimmerman in the face. This explains how right-handed Trayvon hit Zimmerman on the left side of his face, plus explains the testimony of him yelling, "Get off! Get off!" The Skittles were probably still in his left hand. They ran forty feet, Zimmerman --high on Adderall and now enraged -- tackles him, they wrestle, Zimmerman pulls his gun and Trayvon screams, the gun goes off. Zimmerman's a dipshit by everyone's account, so it might have been accidental.
I think that all of the evidence supports this theory, and makes a lot more sense than Zimmerman's story. Plus, George's story isn't so different that it would be hard to screw up. The guy has years and years of experience lying to authorities to get out of trouble.
