в моем "поселении" принято звонить в полицию если вы заметили что либо подозрительное я вообще себе с трудом представляю что значит "пойти и убедиться"
как пример - я раз под окнами заметила машину ночью - стоит себе и стоит на дабл паркин и кто-то сидит внутри - чо ждут непонятно
позвонила 911 - подъехал патруль через пару минут - задали вопросы соответственные
или мне надо было выйти с пистолетом самой?
или надо было дождаться / убедиться что они грабить начнут?

Zimmerman said he left his truck to find a street sign so he would be able to tell the police dispatcher where he was. He told investigators that he was not following Martin but was "just going in the same direction he was" to find an address, but admitted that he had also left his truck to try to see in which direction Martin had gone.[184] The altercation began, he said, when Martin suddenly appeared while Zimmerman was walking back to his vehicle. He described Martin at different points in the interviews as appearing "out of nowhere," "from the darkness," and as "jump[ing] out of the bushes."[184][185] Zimmerman said that Martin asked, "You got a **** problem, homie?" Zimmerman replied no, and then Martin said that he did now, and punched him.[188] As they struggled on the ground, Zimmerman on his back with Martin on top of him, Zimmerman yelled for help "probably 50 times." (See Background sounds of yelling for help in 9-1-1 calls) Martin told him to "Shut the **** up," as he hit him in the face and pounded his head on a concrete sidewalk.[185] When Zimmerman tried to move off the concrete, Martin saw his gun and said "You're going to die tonight ****!" Martin grabbed for the gun, but Zimmerman grabbed it first. He said after firing his weapon at Martin, he wasn't sure at first that he had hit him, so he got on top of him in order to subdue him.[184][184][185] Bystanders and police arrived shortly after Martin was shot.[189][190]

Police reports state Zimmerman "appeared to have a broken and a bloody nose and swelling of his face." Zimmerman was offered three chances to be taken to the hospital, but Zimmerman declined each time, according to police reports released by the prosecution.[189] ABC News reported that a medical report compiled by the family physician of George Zimmerman showed that, following the altercation with Martin, Zimmerman was diagnosed with a closed fracture of his nose, two black eyes, lacerations to the back of his head, a minor back injury, and bruising in his upper lip and cheek.[191]

Скорее всего его оправдали не потому что спарведливость восторжествовала, что слушать об этом очень смешно, а все таки потомучто его дедушка был судья и огромную роль сыграли его коннекшинс в этом деле. Все таки его фамилия о чем то говорит....

не понятно чего так все обрадовались
