WTF Has Barack Obama Done So Far?
Excellent reporting! We noticed in your video of the crime scene that you focused on a surveillance camera, apparently being operated by the gated community where the shooting took place.
Has anyone checked to see if that surveillance camera caught the shooting incident on camera? This would be CRUCIAL evidence. Some of these security cameras are on a 36-hour or so loop and may record over previous video. It would be imperative immediately to secure any video caught by the community’s surveillance cameras.
That would require that this incompetent police force did their jobs and thought of securing those tapes immediately.
Thank you for this, Miss Reid. So was George gonna call 911 on any black kid who entered through the front entrance if that’s where he was perched? And yeah, considering the shooting occurred at a place with an obstructed view from the street, the claims of not pursuing Travyon are bogus. Considering Trayvon allegedly lost him that quickly, I wish he would have just followed his girlfriend’s advice and ran home.
thank you for this information. Very interesting! It seems plausible that Zimmerman saw him near the gate as he was leaving and instead followed him in his car until he had to pursue on foot. Your map also shows how many units are in this community. Hundreds of people plus their friends and relatives. For Zimmerman to claim he didn’t recognize Trayvon as his reason to pursue (because he knew everyone who “belonged” there) is just insane.
Nice video! A commenter (Will) on my blog mentioned your site when referencing the location of Zimmerman’s home in the gated community. This link will help fill in some of your blank spots:

Note: Scroll to the bottom of the posting for my updated map. You’ll also need to scroll to the bottom of the comments for the freshest material. As somebody with ADD, I apologize in advance – there’s a lot of content in the blog posting and 200+ comments but the stuff at the bottom is where it’s at.
Zimmerman hunted this baby causing him to panic. Some forget this was a kid, and kids panic when being chased. Perhaps he did not want to lead this predator to his family.
How do you know there’s an awning over the clubhouse? Because DeeDee said so? With hundreds of people living in the development, you’d think Zimmerman would say he was loitering under the perhaps mythical awning, just in case someone else had driven by or seen the kid before him, or while he was on the phone with the dispatcher.
