re: #338 Targetpractice

I believe those will ultimately be what the charges will hinge upon. If it can be shown that Trayvon was shot while Zimmerman was straddling him, or that any injuries that Zimmerman sustained were inconsistent with his story or in no way life-threatening, then it ceases being a “self-defense” case.

Exactly. The physical evidence — the clothes that both of them were wearing, the autopsy report for Trayvon, the medical reports for Zimmerman, etc. will all make the most difference, I think.
