pursued is not the same as "chased". However, I don't know that either and neither do you. What about the death of Sgt. Ruben Thomas, also in Florida?

Zimmerman told police he acted in self-defense. Police found blood on his face and the back of his head as well as grass on the back of his shirt.

That jibes with what Cheryl Brown's teenage son witnessed while walking his dog that night. Thirteen-year-old Austin stepped out his front door and heard people fighting, he told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday.

"I heard screaming and crying for help," he said. "I heard, 'Help me.' "

It was dark, and the boy did not see how the fight started, in fact, he only saw one person, a man in a red shirt — Zimmerman — who was on the ground.

The boy said he is not sure who called for help. After a moment, his dog escaped, and he turned to catch it and a few seconds later heard a gunshot, he said.

"When I heard the shot, the screaming stopped," he said.

He then rushed inside and told his sister to call police.

What about Zimmerman's call to 911 claiming the boy was coming at him?

Its not that simple.....Zimmerman may well be in the wrong.....but no one ESPECIALLY an alleged lawyer should be prejudging the matter.
