Someone posted the Twin Lakes initial shooting report and I read through it. I got to this part...
Zimmerman was overheard saying, "I was yelling for someone to help me, but no one would help me."

Then I want to this site and listened to the 9/11 calls from that night...

I listened to Zimmerman's voice and then later was the recording of someone crying for help. The voices are considerably different. The one yelling for help sounds like a young boy crying for his life. Trayvon's mother swears this is her son.
The voices are completely different.
It seems to me that Zimmerman lied about yelling for help in order to cover up who was really crying for help.
Am I seeing this wrong?

(12,319 posts)Zimmerman at a minimum committed assault against Martin by stalking him. That puts him in the wrong. He had a gun. He could have walked away from it. But no. He chose to shoot him instead.

(14,933 posts)whole scenario by watching TV 24/7. He knows there are tapes. He knows he's already told Frank Taaffe and god only knows who else that he shot the kid. Now he's trying to alter reality.
Good catch. Send this to Sharpton so he can make sure the Lawyers/FBI and task force know about this lie.

(2,657 posts)No emotion. Too calm in my humble opinion. WAY TOO Calm for the actions happening. Maybe I'm interjecting too much of myself but I had to call the non-emergency number when my neighbor wouldn't respond to us calling and knocking on her door for several days. I remember when the officer arrived and listen to my husband and I talk than called for backup so he could do a concern response (forget what he actually called.) He did note to dispatch the concern in my husband and my voices.
So I started listening to the tape of Zimmerman and It just jumped out at me that his voice didn't sound right. Like he is almost reading a story and just-I don't know it just doesn't feel right.
I'm proabably being completely bias or something but maybe someone understands what I'm saying and can explain it better.
