Trayvon Martin autopsy:
71 inches, 158 pounds.
Wound directly front to back with no exit
Soot, ring abrasion and 2×2 inch stippling around wound
Cause of Death: Gunshot wound
Manner of Death: Homicide
From a news report, it was reported toxicology showed marijuana, but I haven’t seen a toxicology report.
Note: I keep hearing and reading about the shot being at a 1 to 18 inch distance. Where did that come from? I am unable to find any mention of 1 – 18 inches in the report. The range is described as “intermediate.” I thought, well, maybe the term intermediate refers to a 1 to 18 inch distance, but, if so, then what would be a close range? Update2: Now I know where it came from. Lawrence Kobilinsky, forensics examiner, describes a close range as 1 – 6 inches and intermediate range as 1 – 18 inches. Either way it can be as close as 1 inch. Logically, it should be 6 – 18 inches, it seems to me. A ballistic report indicates a “contact” wound. Kobilinsky says the autopsy trumps the ballistics. But he does not mention the soot and the stippling! What I would like to ask him is what range is indicated by the 2×2 inch stippling. So this is misleading not to mention that. They obviously have read the same autopsy report I read so they HAVE to know it’s in there. Funny how they are leaving this out. (You can tell I’m detail oriented, but it is the details that ultimately get to the truth.)
Quote from report:
“The entrance wound is located on the left chest, 17-1/2 below the top of the head, 1 inch to the left of the anterior midline, and 1/2 inch below the nipple. It consists of 3/8 inch diameter round entrance defect with soot, ring abrasion, and a 2 x 2 inch area of stippling.This wound is consistent with a wound of entrance of intermediate range.”

A medical report from George Zimmerman’s doctor, which I have not seen, reportedly says the next day he had two black eyes, a fractured nose, and two lacerations on the back of the head and an injured back.
All the hoop-la from the media putting out inflammatory lies or half-truths, they should be ashamed. The president should be ashamed for reving up the frenzy, but that is what he does.
I heard Trayvon Martin’s attorney say that all they ever wanted was for Zimmerman to be arrested. Well, they got what they wanted. Now will they let the legal process play out and accept whatever the result may be? We’ll see.

can i just finish my waffle? 
there was no black eyes the photos taken at the police station that night SHOW no black eyes and his nose is obviously not broken. 2 by 2 inch stipplling means the gun was a few inches away from his chest when it was fired

Black eyes are common from a broken nose. Zimmerman had no abrasions, scratches, nothing on his hands with would be evidence of a fight. He “claims” Martin was on top of him with one hand over his nose and the other his mouth. So…..where were his hands, arms and legs? Surely he didn’t simply lay there like a mannequin. And how did Martin get a point blank gun shot to his chest is he was laying on top of Zimmerman? The police tape shows Zimmerman is lying.
