You can't prove that Treyvon didn't go back to confront Zimmerman, pissed off at having gotten scared while talking to his girl. If Treyvon was so scared, why didn't he call the police? He had a cell phone. Why didn't he run all the way home?
In the end Zimmerman's version of events is the one that will stand, and the fact that Treyvon was beating him up backs up his claim of self-defence. |
The reality is that the only people that know the truth are Zimmerman and Treyvon and Treyvon isn't talking. Of course Zimmerman is going to frame the story in a context that makes him look as innocent as possible. He shot an unarmed person and is trying not to go to jail for the rest of his life.
In the end the jury will decide. As you said, without proof it is all speculation and we both can only speculate.
