UPDATE: Video of George Zimmerman in handcuffs taken to police station the night of the shooting.
Note There is no sign of blood on Zimmerman's head though he claimed that Trayvon Martin beat Zimmerman's head against the curb. For someone having his bashed against a curb he appears not to have any head injury-if he did the police would have called an ambulance or took him to hospital emergency. Head wounds often bleed a lot even when not serious. So were the police negligent in not taking Zimmerman to the hospital or is Zimmerman's story unraveling.
For the police the video at least showed that they took Zimmerman into custody with hand cuffs on.
So the problem for the police department is what happened next.
Why didn't the police which would have been normal procedure test Zimmerman for alcohol or drugs and given they had him custody for a few hours why didn't they do a background check on Zimmerman.
We know Zimmerman had called 911 to tell them he was suspicious of some person usually African-America, the forty calls he made were all deemed false alarms.
In most places or jurisdictions when someone calls in a number of false alarms they are given an official warning followed by fines and eventually a court appearance-why didn't this happen in Zimmerman's case.
CBS still appears to suggest that Zimmerman was the real victim.
But if he was following Trayvon and there was an altercation according to the self-defense law Trayvon would have been justified in doing what he felt was necessary to defend himself.
