There may be a simple explanation. I'm just curious as to what it might be. If this has been covered before, I apologize, I haven't seen it. The initial police reports show the time completed as 2/27/2012 3:07 and they show the victim as Trayvon Benjamin Martin with his birth date and place of birth. http://blogs.chicagotribune.com/news...e-reports.html Reuters published a comprehensive summary of the event last Tuesday. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/trayvon-mar...183813181.html Quote: [TABLE] [TR] [TD="class: alt2"] [HR][/HR] Tracy Martin had been looking for his son Trayvon since the night before. He went to bed figuring the teen must have gone to the movies and turned off his phone. When Trayvon still wasn't home in the morning, Martin called the police. It was not yet 8 in the morning, barely 12 hours since the shooting that took place about 100 yards away, and Martin was still unaware of the fate of his son. [HR][/HR] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] And later in the article.... Quote: [TABLE] [TR] [TD="class: alt2"] [HR][/HR] At the time of the shooting, Trayvon Martin was not carrying identification - only $22, a cellphone, and the now familiar bag of candy and can of iced tea. His body, taken to the Volusia County Medical Examiner's office, was tagged as a John Doe. Although Martin had identified his son to police on Monday, February 27, and asked Serino the next day to issue police clearance for releasing the body, not until Wednesday was a funeral director permitted to drive it back to South Florida. In Miami, the boy's mother, Sybrina Fulton, 46, a program coordinator for the Miami Dade Housing Authority, stayed home in bed. [HR][/HR] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] So the question is......How does a police report written at 3 in the morning have the complete identity of a victim that they didn't identify until 5-7 hours later? And if the report was changed/edited after the fact......what other sections of the report may have been edited? Thread started at Forum 4 Politics on 04-07-2012 10:12 AM
