I am not asking who will prevail.

I saw a clip of the Z attorney sitting on top of a foam dummy shaking it so its head hit the floor. The dummy Must have weighed three pounds.

I'd like to see a demonstration of an average 5' 11 seventeen year old weighing 158# shaking a mature man weighing (what do you guess?) 230#. If I had been the prosecutor I would have been on that like ugly on ape.

I am still not buying that the kid could have killed Z that way....not even if their physical sizes had been reversed.

Could he have lifted Zimmerman's upper body (not just his head) and pushed it back with enough force to cause a life-threatening injury? I guess it's not impossible, but one would have to assume that Zimmerman was offering zero resistance to those efforts. If Zimmerman was physically resisting the movement.? No way.

Z was something like 189 at the time of the incident.

Here again, let me point out that the evidence presented at trial justified George Zimmerman's action of shooting the man, as reflected in the return of a "not guilty" verdict by the jury.

There is no way that an individual found not guilty by jury verdict could ever have committed the crime that he was accused. Which reminds me that the late Johnny Cochran indicated during the OJ trial that the true murderers were Colombian drug lords. Any line on those guys?

Clearly you have never heard of anybody dying from head impact on concrete.

Walgamuth,

A serious question:

Did you even follow the trial? The facts, AND the evidence presented at trial?
