Are we sure those are not merely artifacts of enhancement?

Yes, I’m equally skeptical of such claims from *both* sides.

I’m skeptical of this video. It seems to show the same frame that the Daily Caller picked out, and doesn’t include any of the footage leading up to it. Those may be cuts on his head, or they may be reflections from the overhead lights.

Keeping the non-troversy in play sells ads for ABC, just at the sensationalized edit at NBC does. Journalism is a business and the carny barkers & shills are nervous.

So let’s paraphrase and enhance this a bit. An armed black guy is following a stranger he feels is suspicious. He has informed the police of his suspicion and the police say they’ll take it from there. The stranger freaks out about being followed and proceeds to beat the shit out of the black guy. Black guy shoots the stranger he was following, after the police advise against following the stranger.

Tell me where the black guy would be right now. Would we be analyzing video of the shooter’s head? Not a chance in hell. None.

The welts appear to be in a 90 degree angle. It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if Zimmerman smacked the back of his head with his own pistol after the fact to make it look like a struggle had occurred. If there had been any blood, he would have had bandages. If there were signs of a concussion the paramedics would have ordered him to the hospital for an examination.

But none of it changes the fact that Zimmerman initiated the whole incident and that the SYG should not apply.

This is crap, those marks should be visible in other shots.

What seems to be visible at 1:01 of this video should be also be clearly visible at 1:09.

Even more so, looking at around 1:30 of the video in the linked article, you should be able to see something

Yeah, in the little bit of the “enhanced” version shown nothing new can be seen. I’m guessing you’re right, it’s the same couple frame video compression artifacts the Daily Caller zeroed in on, and obviously applying filters that make a compression artifact sharper and have more contrast doesn’t make it stop being an artifact.
