Sorry Colin, but the audio book is not available:
Will the Prosecution Tear Open the Mack-Truck Sized Holes in Zimmerman's Story?
After the last couple days testimony the Prosecution, by playing various Police Interviews with George Zimmerman, has essentially laid out for the jury the entire Defense case without rebuttal or cross-examination.
There's is reason to question this strategy, but what it does allow is for that story to be examined clearly and thoroughly. If Zimmerman's story is true as told, it essentially destroys the entire reason for the case being filed. Conservatives who have been claiming that this case is simply "because Obama politicized it with Holder" (even though President Obama didn't even comment on the case until the day after Gov. Scott assigned a Special Prosecutor) or to appease the "Al Sharpton Wing of the Democrat Party to Prevent a RIOT!" or some such - are already feeling VINDICATED.
If Zimmerman's Story is credible and believable - well - Game Over, Dude. Game Over!
But what if there are problems with Zimmerman's Story which he has been locked into since Day One? What if there are Holes? Big Holes?
Let's grab a back-hoe and meet me over the flip.

I know that trial is not even half over, but I have to get all this off my chest or I'll explode.
Map of the Crime Scene:
The first thing people have noted is the fact he decided Travon was acting "Suspicious" because he wasn't "walking fast to get out of the rain" and "going between the houses". Why are Travon's actions automatically "Suspicious" because he doesn't behave the way Zimmerman expects he should? Does he fit the suspect profile (Truthfully, he does. I requested the crime reports from various break-ins around that neighborhood from Sanford PD and he's Does fit the description, although not enough to prove anything - I would post it but the PDF includes my home address) It could be the fact that he really wasn't paying attention to where he going because he was on the PHONE to his friend Rachel Jeantel, and cutting between those houses where he does is a perfect short-cut to and from the 7-11 to the North West.
Let's just leave those issues aside for the moment.
The real big technical and legal issue facing Zimmerman is the fact when Trayvon started to run away to the section between the two rows of house (which led to the father's fiances house) and disappeared from sight George IMMEDIATELY got out of his car to chase Trayvon after he said
"Shit, he's running."
That's aggressive behavior on HIS part, behavior he then has to hide or deflect or his all his claims begin to unravel upon themselves.

Dispatcher: Yeah we've got someone on the way, just let me know if this guy does anything else.
Zimmerman: Okay. These assholes they always get away. When you come to the
clubhouse you come straight in and make a left. Actually you would go past the
clubhouse.
Dispatcher: So it's on the left hand side from the clubhouse?
Zimmerman: No you go in straight through the entrance and then you make a left...uh
you go straight in, don't turn, and make a left. Shit he's running.
Dispatcher: He's running? Which way is he running?
Zimmerman: Down towards the other entrance to the neighborhood.
Dispatcher: Which entrance is that that he's heading towards?
Zimmerman: The back entrance...fucking [unintelligible] (ed. "PUNKS!")
Dispatcher: Are you following him?
Zimmerman: Yeah
Dispatcher: Ok, we don't need you to do that.
Zimmerman: Ok
As soon as he says this you can hear the door open, and the wind begin to howl. As we all know the dispatcher heard this and ask him, "Are you following him?"
To which he said "Yeah". and the dispatcher famously said
"We don't need you to do that".
Zimmerman responded with "Okay", but he
didn't stop. He kept going the same direction he was going (As shown on the map via the Yellow Arrows). The same direction that Trayvon had just run. His explanation for this during the 2nd Interview with Police was - he just wanted to get an address number for the street. But rather than doing it on the Twin Trees street where his car was parked
behind him he proceeded to the "T" where Trayvon turned right and he lost sight of him, then L
ooked Around, didn't see him and went forward all the way "Retreat View Circle" which is the street he lived on in order to get an address to tell the cop where to come.
Let's get this straight. He's been living in this Neighborhood for
Three Years but he doesn't know the name of the street he's on? He's part of the "Neighborhood Watch" but he doesn't know the name of all three streets (Retreat View Circle, Twin Trees & Long Oak Way) in the Neighborhood he's been watching?
When asked about this by Det. Serino he makes the unbelievable claim that "He wasn't following Trayvon,
he was just going the same way Trayvon went."

Uh what?
When asked why he doesn't know what street he's on he says "He has a really bad memory?"
Ok, this guy tells this story at least 3-4 times within that same night, at least twice to police - two of which videos I've seen - and then a third and forth time to his Air Marshal friend and his wife when they picked him up from the police station.
It doesn't change, it doesn't vary. But he has a "bad memory"? Okey dokey.
We
Know he got out the car and chased after Trayvon once he ran, we can
hear it, the dispatcher heard it, he
admitted to it on the tape. Instead of simply going back to his car and checking the address on Twin Trees he has to
walk past the last area he saw Trayvon not once - BUT TWICE on his way to the far street and back again.
Does that make any sense for a guy who swears he
didn't want to confront the "Fucking Punk Asshole" who always gets away? Sure,
let me just saunter back and forth across the last spot I saw the Asshole... cuz.. nothing bad could ever happen that way could it? Nah. Never.
From what we heard from Rachel's testimony Trayvon
did run and then he hid somewhere below the "T" in the area behind his father's fiances house (which was at the end of the double row to the south) thinking he "lost him". It would make sense if this occurred after Zimmerman
passed by the "T" the first time on his way to Retreat View to get the address he "needed" but never did give the dispatcher.
Dispatcher: Alright George we do have them on the way, do you want to meet with the
officer when they get out there?
Zimmerman: Alright, where you going to meet with them at?
Zimmerman: If they come in through the gate, tell them to go straight past the
club house, and uh, straight past the club house and make a left, and then they
go past the mailboxes, that’s my truck...[unintelligible]
Dispatcher: What address are you parked in front of?
Zimmerman: I don’t know, it’s a cut through so I don’t know the address.
Dispatcher: Okay do you live in the area?
Zimmerman: Yeah, I...[unintelligible]
Dispatcher: What’s your apartment number?
Zimmerman: It’s a home it’s 1950, oh crap I don’t want to give it all out, I don’t know where this kid is.
Dispatcher: Okay do you want to just meet with them right near the mailboxes
then?
Zimmerman: Yeah that’s fine.
Dispatcher: Alright George, I’ll let them know to meet you around there okay?
Zimmerman: Actually could you have them call me and I’ll tell them where I’m at?
Dispatcher: Okay, yeah that’s no problem.
