It is very likely that Zimmermann had actually initiated the assault. Right - makes sense to call the police to the scene you intend to assault someone.

CJ, It is very likely that Zimmermann had actually initiated the assault. How? With words, or did Zimmerman actually lay a hand on Trayvon? Words are nothing. No way anyone can prove who touched who first. Tenchusatsu

And there is no proof that Trayvon initiated the assault as I have noted. It is very likely that Zimmermann had actually initiated the assault. Two guys get in a fight - one has bruised knuckles the other has a broken nose and cuts to the back of his head. Given this circumstantial evidence - it's pretty hard to imagine another scenario that would fit the facts so far. Why is it very likely zimmerman started the assault - trayvon ran, zimmerman lost him and had even called the police - knowing they were on the way - why in the world would he assault someone when they would probably arrest him instead of trayvon? You're suggestion that zimmerman started a fight makes no sense at all. It's far more believable that trayvon may have thought someone was after him (to harm him) and decided to land the first punch.
