There is testimony..by Zimmerman..in the police reports that Martin went for his gun and that put him in "fear for his life or great bodily harm" which by law gave him the right to use deadly force. That is defense in total.
The burden of proof lies with the prosecutor not Zimmerman...thus the prosecutor...has to prove that Martin did not go for Zimmerman's gun and Zimmerman does not have to prove that Martin did.
