George Zimmerman Video Shows Little Evidence of a Broken Nose, Doctor Claims

There was no obvious sign of any injury to Zimmerman's head or face on the video until it was enhanced. But Dr. Vidor Friedman, president of the Florida College of Emergency Physicians, remains unconvinced.

"If somebody had been beating his head against concrete I'd think we'd see more obvious scrapes," Friedman said. He also said he would expect to see bandages on Zimmerman's head.

More significantly for Friedman was the condition of Zimmerman's nose.

"All of the ridges in his nose are clearly defined. You would expect significant swelling in the hour or two after a break. There appears to be none. It doesn't look like his nose was broken or badly broken," Friedman said.

1. Diagnoses by video. Great.

2. Hey, it worked for Bill Frist in the Terry Schiavo case...

Oh. Wait...never mind.

3. Lol.

Hey he reclarified himself...it might be broken but it's not badly broken.

4. It doesn't take a "diagnosis" to see

if someone is bleeding from assault. Nor, does it take a doctor. If someone's head has been bashed in, excuse me, but even a grainy video will reflect something...anything. Where is the blood?

And cancelling the 2nd ambulance...only needed one for the dead guy...should have been a hint along with the fact they did not stop by the hospital. The cops have to give a reason for calling an ambulance...somebody's going to get a bill for a thousand bucks...and for cancelling an ambulance.

Calmly sauntering through the police garage ... even with a clean and shiny X suddenly discovered on his shaved head ... give me a break ... that doesn't even take an adult with a 2 digit IQ to figure out.

5. The doctor gave no actual diagnosis

Where did you read or hear about a diagnosis via video? He essentially said that if there was a significant injury to the nose like a break, we would see the swelling and he sees no swelling or blood.

6. He is only eliminating not including.

Seriously are you trolling or did you fail basic logic?

7. simple fact. if someone was "beating his head into the ground"

he would have been in the hospital overnight for observation.

this is becoming a circus.

zimmerman is full of shit.
