George Zimmerman's Police Call History

A new 47-page document, quietly dumped online by the city of Sanford, details some of the phone calls George Zimmerman made to emergency dispatchers in Seminole County, Florida. Zimmerman, a self-styled neighborhood watch captain in his Orlando suburb, shot 17-year-old African American Trayvon Martin dead last month after reporting him to police as a suspicious person prowling the area. The newly released police calls paint Zimmerman as a man obsessed with law and order, with the minutiae of suburban life, and with black males.

2. 47 pages of trouble, ending in death.

The last entries are the calls made reporting Trayvon.

3. What is it inadmissable in court, or did no one choose to admit it as evidence.

I only read the first couple of year's worth, but I didn't see anything that would have helped the prosecutor or the defense team. Is there something important in the later calls?

4. The DOJ will be able to use it. n/t

5. On MSNBC, Lisa Bloom said they could use the calls and she couldn't figure out they didn't.

6. George wanted to hunt "assholes". He bagged one.

Someeay, in Florida, one might be able to take their trophy to the local police station for tagging.

7. I think because the state deliberately sabotaged this case. I still feel strongly about collusion.

8. that is starting to look more and more to be the case

9. I'm telling you: the more facts that are revealed, the more convinced I become...

I said it on Day 1. Something didn't look right about how the Sanford Police Department conducted itself.

But I was even more astonished by the utter incompetence of the State attorneys. They didn't even try. They didn't try to get a representative jury that wasn't biased. They didn't try to get evidence admitted to the court that would have at least raised eyebrows re: Zimmerman's story.

And Detective Serino: he's a bald-faced liar. His entire story changed when he got on the stand.
