Theories on how Zimmerman got his wounds?
It may be that Trayvon never hit Zimmerman at all. The single small wound on one finger, the fact that some experts say that there was no fighting going on for at least 40 seconds before the gunshot rang out--this may suggest a confrontation that was all on Zimmerman's end.
But if that's the case, how did he get his wounds? The wounds documented by his family physician the next day could have been self-inflicted, to give him an alibi.
However, he clearly had some wounds the night of the shooting--pics taken at the time and police and EMT reports verify this. The wounds were minor, but still present.
How did he get them? There's a few possibilities:
1) Trayvon inflicted them while either defending himself or attacking Zimmerman. But if that's the case, why is there only a single small wound on Trayvon's finger?
2) Zimmerman or a friend* inflicted them in the short time frame between the shot and the arrival of the police. But would there have been enough time for that (the police arrive in less than a minute after the shot), and wouldn't one of the many witnesses now looking out of their windows have seen this?
3) This one is pure speculation on my part. Some may remember the 1989 Charles Stuart murder case from Boston. A man killed his wife, and then blamed a black carjacker for the crime.
About a year later, another incident occurred in the Boston area. A young white man says he was attacked and mugged by two men, one black and one Latino. It turns out that the white man had raped and murdered a neighbor woman he had become obsessed with, but in her attempt to defend herself, she had inflicted some injuries on him. He needed to get them treated without raising suspicion, so he picked a fight with two tough looking guys on the street so they'd fight back and supply his alibi.
So--again, pure speculation--Zimmerman already had injuries from some other incident, and needing a way to explain them, picks a fight with Trayvon that gets out of hand.

I think #1 or #2 are far more likely, but I can't answer the questions about them. Any thoughts or answers here?

* I keep wondering how many of the witnesses knew Zimmerman. It seems like he went out of his way to meet neighbors and let them know that he was the local "Watch Captain." Were any witnesses asked or did they volunteer that they knew him? He told one witness to call his wife to tell her what happened, so that would presume the witness knew both Z and his wife. Someone also snapped a pic of the back of Zim's head before or shortly after the police arrived. So people who knew Z and may even have been his friends might have been on the scene almost immediately. Still, would they have had enough time to concoct evidence of an assault and not be witnessed by onlookers?

There is the video of him in the police station with no blood on his head. Then there is the cell phone pic with a cap on and blood running from under it allegedly taken at the scene of the crime by a friend. Then there are the photos taken by the doctor the next day with dried blood in the same pattern as seen in the baseball cap picture.
So if I have this right: it's bloody picture at the scene, clean scalp at the police station and then dried blood in same pattern as the first pic at the doctor's the next day.
Doesn't add up to me.
