The only good thing about this case is that Zimmerman quickly told his side of the story, rather than a lawyer telling the story months later after analyzing the evidence. That means whatever evidence there is, like injuries, blood on the sidewalk, etc. will either match perfectly what he said, in which case he's probably telling the truth, or some little thing won't match up and that would suggest he lied.
An overreacting thing about the law is that the Florida Supreme Court said it means Zimmerman must prove it was self defense by the preponderence of the evidence. So the prosecution does NOT have to prove that part beyond a reasonable doubt, it's whatever is supported by 50% of the evidence.
