A collection of public documents in the Trayvon Martin shooting

[Updated April 12] Police and other officials in Sanford, Florida, have released a number of documents relating to the investigation of the February 26 shooting death of teenager Trayvon Martin and the arrest of George Zimmerman on a charge of second-degree murder. In this post, we’ve collected some of the documents that show what police initially found at the scene, what authorities have told the public about the case, and other official documents.

An affidavit from 2 Jacksonville Sherriffs. One with 20 years in homicide, the other with 24. Pretty much describe the incident as we know it, but testify that Zimmerman was profiling Martin.

Edit. Not much else there we havent seen or heard. No coronors report, which I was hoping to see.

I have to add that wikipedia is doing good job of keeping things organized and updated as new information comes out.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Trayvon_Martin
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investigation_of_the_death_of_Trayvon_Martin

There's been a request to merge these two articles but for the time being they are separate.
