Witness: Zimmerman 'never ... tried to help' Trayvon Martin
By NBC News, msnbc.com staff and news services

"I think there were efforts made to render aid to Trayvon," Craig Sonner told NBC's TODAY show.

Mary Cutcher told Dateline that she and her roommate both saw Zimmerman "straddling the body, basically a foot on both sides of Trayvon's body, and his hands pressed on his back."

Cutcher added that Zimmerman told her and her roommate to call the police.

"Zimmerman never turned him over or tried to help him or CPR or anything," Cutcher said.

Not only is Zimmerman a liar, but it appears his lawyer is a liar as well.

[FarPoint]

1. Zimmerman and company

They will tell these lies to place reasonable doubt into a jury pool...they'll say them enough ...until tgey even believe the lies.

[lob1]

2. A lawyer...lie? Nnnnoooooooooooooo!

[joeybee12]

8. What's the difference between a liar and a lawyer?

The spelling.

3. pretty soon Zim will claim he and Trayvon were close buddies

4. The more people speak in support of Zimmerman, the worse it seems.

They're better off all STFU, because if the Feds are building a case, they're going to be shown to be doing nothing but lying and/or speculating.

I hope the Sanford PD goes down in the process for their bullshit explanation to Trayvon's father.

5. Why would he try to help?

If I just shot someone in "defense" as he has claimed, why would I lift a finger to help the person who just tried to kill me?

Seems a strange thing to claim.

6. If I shot someone in self-defense, I'd try to give first aid.

I would be shooting to stop the attack, not to kill.

[MrSlayer]

7. I wouldn't shoot someone unless I really felt my life was at stake.

And in that case I'm looking to kill the person before they kill me. I'm not going to help them. Of course this is all hypothetical, who really knows what they'd do? I hope to never be in that situation, I don't want to kill, maim or otherwise hurt anyone.

[X_Digger]

9. If you were looking to kill, that's murder.

I don't want to kill anyone, but I'll use deadly force to stop a serious attack. If the first shot knocked them down, I wouldn't stand over them and shoot, no matter how pissed or scared I was.

Once the attack is over, I'd do my damndest to save their life.

[spin]

12. I would do the same. (n/t)

10. Any lies they are telling will trip them up

eventually, lies always do.

[Cali_Democrat]

11. I'm guessing that Zimmerman most likely told the police that he tried to give aid to Trayvon

so they have to go with it. Unfortunately for them, there's a witness who says otherwise.

13. hands pressing on back -- possibly trying to stop bleeding?

[Bolo Boffin]

14. Never mind, I misread the piece.

Sorry about that.

[Voice for Peace]

15. hmm that sounds different than the witness' description

I'm not trying to excuse zimmerman but have been trying to figure out the picture she described.

[Bolo Boffin]

18. No, it's me, I think I misread it.

Concentrating more on the Mad Men premiere. Sorry about that.

[arthritisR_US]

16. I thought Treyvon was lying face down with

his hands under his body and that it was the police who turned him over.

[arthritisR_US]

17. My thoughts too. The cops have messed up

this case royally! I can only hope that justice wills out.
