I find it odd that that one expert Tom, said it was not GZ screaming for help, but yet, he admits that GZ said the word "punks".

And I also find it odd that Tracy Martin tells three different versions of what LE told him the night of the shooting.

Good evening Monkey's,

Iluvmua,

I enjoyed NillySilly's comment, so much, I bought it over. Smile

I swear, there is no way I could hear that word as "punks". Not unless someone had a Ricky Ricardo type accent that pronounces "uh" as "oo". But what do I know -- I'm not an expert (and certainly not a chemist!)

Did George Zimmerman use a racial slur in his 911 call? CNN enhanced the audio for clearer results.

Some Hispanics want to tell more about background
Updated 10:17 p.m., Thursday, April 5, 2012

WASHINGTON (AP) — A majority of Hispanics prefer to identify themselves according to their families' countries of origin, rather than by the government's suggested terms "Hispanic" or "Latino," Pew Hispanic Center reported Wednesday.
 
The description preferred by 51 percent of Hispanics is Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban or other culture they are tied to through family or ancestry. About a quarter surveyed said they identify as Latino or Hispanic first and a fifth said they tend to say American, according to Pew's survey. About 50 million people in the U.S. are Hispanic.
 
Although Latinos have long maintained they are not a monolithic group, the complexity of Hispanic identity has drawn renewed interest amid the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, a black teenager, by George Zimmerman, whose father is white and mother is Hispanic, of Peruvian ancestry.
 
Police and early media reports described Zimmerman as white, but his father has defended his son against allegations of racial profiling by describing him as a "Spanish-speaking minority."
 
Whites, blacks and Asian Americans are all considered a racial group. Hispanics are an ethnic group, which means although they share a common language, culture and heritage, they do not share a common race. They can be black, white, Asian, American Indian, or descended from original peoples of a place colonized by Spain and a few others.

Hello Monkey's,

Wonder if GZ was riding around on the grounds, with a six-pack of 'liquid courage'?

He was appointed to be the King of the Hill, he felt entitled to be master of the domain, IMO.

The wrong beverage and a weapon, is the kiss of death. Sad

IMO.

 Zimmerman Family Asks for Donations


The man who shot Trayvon Martin has been in hiding since the story made national news. Now, George Zimmerman’s family is setting up a website, www.zimmermandefense.com, to raise money for “their living expenses and for his defense,” the family’s attorneys said in a statement Friday. Zimmerman has said that his shooting of the unarmed 17-year-old Martin was in self-defense, and the neighborhood watch captain has yet to be charged with a crime. The website was not live as of Friday morning.

George Zimmeman lawyers: ''punks'' whispered, not racial slur, before Trayvon Martin shooting
9:13 AM, Apr 6, 2012
Written by
CNN

Sanford, Florida (CNN) -- George Zimmerman told his lawyers that he whispered "punks," not a racial slur, in the moments before he shot Trayvon Martin, his attorneys told CNN on Thursday.
 
Some people interpreted the police recording of Zimmerman's call to 911 as evidence the fatal shooting was racially motivated.
 
Zimmerman attorneys Hal Ulrig and Craig Sonner told CNN their client told them that he said, "f---ing punks."
 
Forensic audio expert Tom Owen, who analyzed 911 recordings, agreed the garbled word that raised controversy was "punks," not the racial slur some people said they heard.

But 'punks' doesn't inflame the masses like the other word did.  So, naturally, the media and 'activists' aren't going to man-up to being wrong.  That would take integrity and honor.

Police Gave George Zimmerman Voice Stress Test
Fri Apr 6, 2012 1:07am EDT

 ::snipping2::
A voice stress test is like a polygraph, but instead of measuring heart rate and blood pressure, it looks for changes in an individual's voice patterns that are thought to suggest psychological stress. With the help of software, investigators record a suspect answering baseline questions and then compare them to answers about the case.

This technology is not unique to Sanford. The National Institute for Truth Verification, a manufacturer of the technology, claims that over 1,800 local, state and federal law enforcement agencies use their product. They also claim to have trained U.S. Military personnel.

Expert opinion is mixed, but a study commissioned by the Justice Department suggests that a voice stress test is "no better than flipping a coin." For this reason, like its cousin the polygraph, George Zimmerman's voice stress test probably wouldn't be admissible at trial. However, it can still be used in the investigatory phase.

George Zimmerman's voice stress test came out clean, according to attorney Hal Uhrig. If the Sanford Police Department is willing to spend more than $10,000 on the product, then it probably trusts its results. And those results probably corroborated what officers initially saw at the scene.

If this was not so tragic it was be amusing, asking for Attn. funds and living expenses.

NBC News has fired the producer it says was responsible for creating the deceptive audio recording of George Zimmerman communicating with a 9-1-1 operator, according to the New York Times.
 
The network is still refusing to release the name of the producer, although according to Times reporter Brian Stelter, the producer is based in Miami and has worked there for a number of years. According to Stelter's network sources, NBC is still insisting the deceptive edit was not done deliberatiely. The network has refused to say how exactly someone could accidentally have edited the tape to make Zimmerman appear to be racially motivated:

Man, 78, recounts assault by 6 youths in E. Toledo

Quote
"Why you picking on me?" Mr. Watts recalled. "Remember Trayvon. Why you picking on me?"

 ::snipping2::

While Mr. Watts was down the boys kicked him, over and over, shouting, "[Get] that white [man]. This is for Trayvon ... Trayvon lives, white [man]. Kill that white [man]," according to a police report.

For investigators, it's unclear whether the assault was motivated by an attempt to avenge the Martin youth's death or whether Mr. Watts' "Remember Trayvon" message was misinterpreted as threatening or racist.
 

Even if this 78 yr old had said something ugly, there is never a reason for a gang of young people to beat an elderly person. 

This whole situation is absolutely out of hand.

"Shaken Baby Syndrome" used in defense of Trayvon Martin's killer

SANFORD, Florida (Reuters) - "Shaken Baby Syndrome" was cited on Friday in the defense of George Zimmerman, the Sanford, Florida, man who shot and killed unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin, in a case that has sparked a widespread public outcry.

Hal Uhrig, a lawyer and formerGainesville, Florida, police officer who recently joined Zimmerman's defense team, cited in a TV interview, "We're familiar with the shaken baby syndrome."

"You shake a baby, the brain shakes around inside the skull."

His point was that Zimmerman may have suffered injuries similar to shaken baby syndrome.
