Again, the burden remains on the police, not on Zimmerman.
If they failed to secure his clothing at the time, that falls on them.
His version of events, not yet contradicted by the evidence, does not provide probable cause for his arrest.
If you disagree, please explain why you feel there is probable cause, keeping in mind that controversial law.
There are still plenty of issues to investigate, as you note in your other post, and the police certainly have the time to do so, to see if they contradict Zimmerman's version of events.
IIRC, a grand jury convenes on Thursday.
The info above comes from Zimmerman's witness statement but you are stating it as though it's proven fact. What evidence backs it up? (see my comment above)
How did police verify the injuries or what caused them? Zimmerman wasn't taken to the hospital, which is SOP in these situations.

His injuries are consistent with his version of events.
Again, given current evidence what crime do the local police charge him with, considering Zimmerman doesn't have to prove anything, but the local DA does?
I appreciate you don't like the guy, but exactly what crime has been committed?
