7:27 am
walking. >> sustain. >> how many seconds -- you heard the tape where you can hear him getting out of the car, correct? >> where i heard -- sound of the door being open which i interpreted that. >> got out of the car, right? >> yes. >> then you know that he was going -- walking in some direction because he said to the officer in response to are you following him, hay said yes, right? >> objection. facts not in evidence. >> facing a question. >> you know he was following him because he told the -- non-emergency operator that he was, right? >> yes, sir. >> and -- you know from the conversation that mr. zimmerman indicated to the non-emergency operator that he he cut between the buildings, right? >> yes, sir. >> okay. so -- more clear what -- parked his car somewhere in this area,

7:29 am
not to. do you have any evidence to support that? >> i would answer -- i have -- information, yes, that there was -- just based on where we low kay indicated trayvon and -- the fact that the altercation happened after his conversation. that's my interpretation. it was some -- >> let me ask you this. do you have anything to contradict mr. zimmerman's statement he walked the rest of the way to retreat and coming back towards his car when the interaction, wherever it was, between trayvon martin and him occurred? >> nothing tangible, no. >> go intangible on us then. what do you mean nothing tangible? in the circumstances that the -- totality of the whole thing that i'm looking at as i interpreted it, when he says follow walking behind trying to find a direction i construe that as poll.
