The picture I saw of him lying in the wet grass, he was face up. So apparently he was turned over and continued to be in the rain for some time. And the grass was also wet because it had been raining, so even your argument that his hands were underneath his body doesn't hold water (pun intended).

AND, he apparently wasn't face down the whole time, because GZ said he spread out TM's arms from his chest when he thought he was still alive. Also, someone performed CPR on TM according to testimony - so again, he would have been face up then.

The police rolled him over, and one of the officers attempted CPR on him. It was in his testimony at the trial.

GZ stated he spread his arms out, as TM was face down, as he was until he died. The only time he was face up is after the police turned him over.

I can't remember it's name, but whatever they spray to check for blood traces would have detected it. I know many sites are busy coming up with new ideas, so they get Googled and fill up all the pages for searchers.

Did anyone actually watch this trial?

Can never figure that out and I have issues with it because indeed the King case should have been obvious. Subject for another thread perhaps.

The tasteless joke at the time "Come to LA, the police will treat you like a "King""
Yes it took the DOJ to do anything about King's beating. But I do not think the DOJ has one bit of business sticking their nose into the Zimmerman case. Two entirely different situations and not a hate crime, no ill intent, no malice. The American Justice System at work in Sanford, Florida.
