Hi tejek; Re: "Look, bilow, I listened to the PA..........she said it was possible that it was broken but only an x-ray could confirm that diagnosis. Zimmerman didn't bother to get that x-ray.Now if you want to be your typical jackass self and believe otherwise, that's fine........but don't bother me with your craziness. Got it, dude? "; (1) The "PA" wasn't the only testimony in the case, there were also two police officers who testified that Zimmerman had a broken nose. (2) You obviously didn't understand what the PA said because the major news organizations differ with you on the interpretation. (3) Since the lack of a broken nose would be incriminating evidence, it was the State's duty to show that there was no broken nose. Regarding the nose, the State not only failed in its duty to show guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, the weight of the evidence is that Zimmerman did, in fact, have a broken nose. That's why the media, left right and central, all reported that Zimmerman had a broken nose. The fact that you don't accept this is an indication of just how far off in left field you've wandered. Obviously you're wasting your formidable talents here on SI. Why don't you go around and correct the thousands of news reports that disagree with you. I'll give you a start with these links: BBC: Another officer, Jonathan Mead, said in his report that the neighbourhood watchman "appeared to have a broken and bloody nose* and swelling of his face".* bbc.co.uk CBS: Court records show George Zimmerman had two black eyes, broken nose Court records show George Zimmerman was treated for a broken nose* and cuts after the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, CBS News has confirmed.* cbsnews.com Washington Post: According to the report by Sanford police officer Michael Wagner on the night of the shooting, “Zimmerman’s face was bloodied and it appeared to me that his nose was broken.” Officer Jonathan Mead made a similar observation. Zimmerman told the attending assistant physician that emergency medical personnel on the scene the night before told him he had a broken nose. But the Altamonte report states: “We discussed that it is likely broken, but does not appear to have septal deviation. The swelling and black eyes are typical of this injury.” washingtonpost.com New York Times: On the police videotape that showed Mr. Zimmerman re-enacting the crime, Mr. Zimmerman’s injuries — two bandages on the back of his head and a broken nose — are obvious. nytimes.com Los Angles Times: Trayvon Martin case: Details on Zimmerman injuries, but no answers An autopsy of Trayvon Martin, the black unarmed teenager who was fatally shot by a Florida neighborhood watch volunteer, shows that his body had injuries to the knuckles, while a medical report on the shooter, George Zimmerman, shows that he suffered a broken nose, two black eyes, and cuts on the back of his head, according to a Florida TV news channel and ABC News. articles.latimes.com Christian Science Monitor: George Zimmerman had two black eyes, broken nose, medical report says csmonitor.com ABC News: ABC News Exclusive: Zimmerman Medical Report Shows Broken Nose, Lacerations After Trayvon Martin Shooting abcnews.go.com NBC News: Physician: Zimmerman had broken nose, black eye usnews.nbcnews.com Post & Currier: Doctor: Zimmerman had black eyes, broken nose but no head trauma www.postandcourier.com/article/20120703/PC1601/120709715/doctor-zimmerman-had-black-eyes-broken-nose-but-no-head-trauma -- Carl
