19. But what the audio clip is evidence of is the question.

Under Florida law, the analysis of an expert needs to pass the Frye test. If an expert is testifying, he or she is supposed to have knowledge and/or experience the average person does not have and it is entirely reasonable that the expert be able to prove his credentials.

What I believe the trial will boil down to is:
1. Who started the PHYSICAL altercation and
2. Did Zimmerman have a reasonable belief that he was in fear of death or grave bodily harm

Given the EMT's report here, starting on page 182

his injuries are consistent with being struck in the nose and having his head struck against the pavement.

None of us here on DU have ALL of the facts and I am expecting there are going to be some shocks when it all does come out in the trial.
