I was watching the entire footage of the DASH cam, of the Texas police officer supposedly pulling George Zimmerman over. In the clip you start out seeing the CARS in front of the Police cam. As this car goes down the ROAD, there is a CAR PULLED over on the side with his blinkers on. THAT car was NEVER Chased and waved to pull over.. It was clearly by the side of the road waiting before the cop got there. I tried to find the original clip shown here:
http://www.mediaite.com/online/watch-dashcam-footage-of-george-zimmerman-getting-pulled-over-for-speeding/
but the best I could find was this clip:
WATCH THEM BOTH. WATCH THE FIRST ONE, HOW it seems the cop is going after a greenish looking vehicle but it pulls away and the Cop car instead stops for the car blinking it light on the side of the ROAD.
something DOES NOT make sense... DOES ANYONE ELSE NOT SEE THIS???

There will be a lot of weird events to keep him in the spotlight.

(8,747 posts)What could be the motive for staging this? Especially halfway across the country?

(20,776 posts)What had happened... it just did not make sense at first. When I was pulled over once, the Cop had turned on his siren and though the speakers told me to pull over. This did not happen here, but ..I understand that Zimmerman probably knew he was caught speeding and pulled over to wait for the cops.

(8,747 posts)Often work in pairs. One clocking, the other stopping. So Zimmerman may have blown by the first cop, and he signaled to him to pull over, so he did, and waited for the cop's partner to arrive.
Or he may have just passed the cop going 85 or 90, knew he was caught, and based on his past experience did NOT want to give the cops any chance that they might think he was running, so he just said to himself, "That's it, I'll just pull over and wait."
That works

(20,776 posts)Its like this was staged, because that car WAS waiting for the cop car all that time. Why would anyone do that? I do not get it.

(289 posts)seen the cop pulling out as he went by, knew it was him that the cop was going after, and pulled over down the road to wait. I don't think anything strange is going on here, other than the fact that Zimmerman loves the media

(20,776 posts)Zimmermans car had been waiting there a while before he got there. I could suggest another police car made him pull over and this car showed up but then where is the first police car.. THIS DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.

(31,505 posts)pulled over to the side of the road with lights blinking when the cop pulls in behind him. This is strange.
AsahinaKimi
(20,776 posts)okay, I think I understand now..thanks.. cause at first it did not make sense, but if he knew..the cop was going to pull him over, than maybe he pulled over and waited for the cop to show up..

Tells idiot to get out of the way in who is in the fast lane, goes around, pulls up to vehicle that was speeding (who was already pulled over)
I did this just a couple months ago, was going 80 in a 60, saw Richardson cop coming taking off from middle of exit ramp, knew he got me...I pulled over and waited for him to catch up...
Tends to help get you out of tickets to instead of playing dumb, Oh, you trying to pull ME over

(20,776 posts)We never see the Zimmerman car fly by the Cop car dash, unless they cops do not turn it on until after a chase starts.

(6,324 posts)Don't start recording until the blue lights get turned on.
Newer ones are digital and store a few minutes constantly and when the lights are turned on will save everything 30-60-90 (agency can set) prior to lights coming on and everything after.

(20,776 posts)We never see Zimmerman fly by him, and do not see his car until the cop pulls up to him.

(6,324 posts)Zimmerman probably knew he had been busted because he knew how fat he was going and saw the cop pull out. People do that all the time, it tends to make an officer more likely to let you off with a warning.
Most dash cams don't actually start recoding until the blue lights come on or have a buffer and will save everything for a short period before the lights come on and all after they do, unless the officer specifically turns it on earlier.
