Defense should mold Zimmerman's head in blue rubber available at TAP Plastics. The rubber is as pliable as skin and can be done in less than an hour. I've molded many items and it's easy. Place dental marking tape on the molded head and slam it on concrete. The dental marking tape will show the point of impact. I'll bet there's no physical way both cuts could be caused by one slam. Spherical objects against planar surfaces hit in single points and the cuts were separated sufficiently to preclude a single event from causing both cuts. It's clear from the photo of Zimmerman's head that there is a significant amount of curvature between the cuts to prevent both from being caused by a single blow.
Further, I wouldn't want my head hit hard enough on a flat surface to cause a single cut, much less two (by either one or two impacts). By definition, the force it takes to cause a cut in this manner is significant. Many people have died from less force to the head. I'm surprised Zimmerman retained consciousness through such trauma. Expert witnesses and scientific studies have shown the incredible forces involved, especially when the force from a fist hitting the front of the skull is then reversed by the back of the head impacting a solid surface at the back of the head. This reversal doubles the force on the brain as it moves one way then the other within the brain-cage and causes concussions and often death.
Valerie Rao, the medical examiner is almost certainly a liar and needs to be exposed as such. This sort of false-accuser should be brought up on charges herself, once the head-mold test above proves her lie.

The factor not yet brought up is that Trayvon Martin was hitting a man while he was down. I believe the evidence is clear enough that if Trayvon had simply punched Zimmerman in the face and left him on the ground, Trayvon would be alive today. Trayvon could have then been charged with assault, but at least he'd have been alive. It was his own dirty, un-American, hitting a man while he's down, that left Zimmerman with no choice. Trayvon caused his own death.
