Abc News reports:
“The request to end the controversial trial followed the testimony of the medical examiner who conducted the autopsy on Trayvon Martin’s body and the teens mother and brother who said they could hear him screaming for help on 911 calls made before he died.
Dr. Shiping Bao testified after Martin’s mother and brother took the stand as the prosecution nears completion of its case against Zimmerman.
Bao told the court that Martin, 17, was shot in the heart and said, “There was no chance he could survive.”
The medical examiner said that Martin would have lived anywhere from one minute to 10 minutes after being shot as his beating heart ran out of blood to pump.
“His brain is still alive?” prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda asked.
“Yes,” Bao replied.
“He can still feel pain in other words?” the prosecutor asked.
“Yes,” he replied.
De la Rioda asked whether Martin would have been able to move after he was wounded.
“From my experience and another autopsy we did three weeks ago, I don’t believe he could move,” Bao said.
Bao’s claim that Martin would have been unable to move could cast doubt on Zimmerman’s version of what happened during their violent confrontation on Feb. 26, 2012.
Zimmerman, who is being tried on charges of second degree murder, has maintained that he shot Martin after he was knocked down and beaten by Martin and the teenager went for Zimmerman’s gun. After the shot was fired, Martin sat up and said, “You got me,” Zimmerman told police and media.
