One of the major risks of regular use of DXM is liver damage. According to the autopsy report, Trayvon Martin had mild fatty metamorphosis of the liver, an early onset of liver disease.
Imagine that.
Not saying he never did it, he may have, but you can't take what a teenager (or anyone) writes on FB as 100% truth. Asprin can have the same result as well as diet. Being overweight will cause a fatty liver. There are several reason one would have a fatty liver.
Imagine that.

Fatty Liver:
Fatty liver is an excessive accumulation of fat (lipid) inside the liver cell. It was formerly believed that malnutrition rather than ethanol was responsible for steatosis (fatty metamorphosis) of the liver in alcohol. More recently, it has come to be agreed that the role of deficient nutrition in such individuals has been overemphasised. However, it cannot be ignored that inadequate diets specially those deficient in choline, methionine, and dietary protein? Can produce fatty liver (Kwashiorkor) in children. Sometimes the cause of fatty liver is not known; especially in newborns. In general, the known causes are injuries to the liver in some way. Fatty liver usually produces no symptoms. Rarely, it causes jaundice, nausea. vomiting; pain, and abdominal tenderness

A physical examination that reveals an enlarged liver without any other symptoms suggests fatty liver. The diagnosis may be confirmed by performing a liver biopsy, in which a long hollow needle is used to obtain a small tissue sample for examination under a microscope

The mere presence of excessive fat in the liver is not a serious problem. Treatment aims at eliminating the cause or treating the underlying disorder. Repeated liver injury from toxic substances such as alcohol may eventually progress from fatty liver to cirrhosis.

<quoted text>You nailed it. TM had plenty of time to go home, if that was his desire. It obviously wasn't. He wanted to 'roll' GZ in front of his girlfriend. Sounded like he planned on killing him which explains why his 'sweet' girlfriend never called the police after the line went dead. She wasn't concerned about TM's safety. She was concerned about her own. If TM were arrested, she didn't want to be connected with it in any way. Since TM is dead, she can pretend the aggressor was GZ. Girlfriend is as dead on the inside as TM.
lol! TM wasn't doing anything illegal son. He didn't HAVE TO DO ANYTHING.

The only person pressing any point was Zimmerman. And he was SUPPOSEDLY the ADULT!

You dummies keep focusing on what Martin should be doing and not the stalking, gun toting Zimmerman who actually did the killing while targeting Martin.

I love this comedy channel.

Uh huh. Looks like Zimmerman has hoof and mouth disease....

"George Zimmerman Prosecution May Use TV Interview as Evidence
ABC News
By COLLEEN CURRY, MATT GUTMAN, and SENI TIENABESO | ABC News – 19 hrs ago

George Zimmerman's television interview in which he said had few regrets about the night he killed teenager Trayvon Martin has been entered as possible evidence in his upcoming murder trial.

In a wide ranging interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity Zimmerman, appearing articulate and calm, said he neither regretted carrying a gun that night nor pursuing the 17-year-old Martin.

"I feel that it was all God's plan," he told Hannity. When asked if there was "anything you might do differently," Zimmerman responded, "No Sir."

This morning the prosecution entered the tape of the interview into discovery as and could attempt to admit it as evidence in Zimmerman's trial on charges of second degree murder.

Zimmerman, 28, has maintained that he shot Martin in self-defense after Martin attacked him in Sanford, Fla., on the night of Feb. 26.

Towards the end of the interview, following commercial break, Zimmerman pivoted towards the camera and addressed it directly, saying he misunderstood Hannity's earlier question about whether he had any regrets that night.

"I do wish that there was something, anything I could have done that would have put me in the position that I wouldn't have to take his life," he said.

Granting the interview will likely haunt Zimmerman, veteran legal analyst and defense attorney Mark Eiglarsh told ABC News. "He has impeached himself publicly, this is going to be a huge problem for him… and the prosecutors must be extremely pleased... He was making inconsistent statements that they can use in a trial against him."

And some are now questioning whether Zimmerman has begun disregarding his attorney's advice.

After his interview with Hannity Thursday, Zimmerman abruptly cancelled an interview with ABC News' Barbara Walters, which his attorney Mark O'Mara had set up.

Walters said on "The View" today that she arrived to do the interview Wednesday and found a "stubborn" Zimmerman dressed in a T-shirt and demanding certain conditions from her that she was unwilling to agree to. Walters would not specify what Zimmerman asked for in exchange for the interview, but said that she would never agree to it.

She noted that Zimmerman's attorney had promised her an interview earlier in the week and said today that O'Mara "wanted him to do the interview."

Walters said that it was Zimmerman who renegged on the promise after she flew down to Orlando for the appointment. She said that Zimmerman told her during their conversations that he was in "desperate" need of money, as he had apparently already spent the bulk of the more than $200,000 raised through donations since April...."

Probably self defense or at the worst a hung jury. I mean this judge has prejudiced the jury pool so much he has left himself open to have the verdict appealed if necessary.
Actually, Bro-job, it's been the pedophile who has hurt his case every time he opens his mouth and puts out a statement that contradicts the statement he made before that.

The pedophile lied to the judge. You will find any appeal will be made to other judges and find that judges don't like being lied to.

Thug Zimmerman went through drug rehab, thug Zimmerman has a history of violence including domestic abuse and an assault on a police officer, and now it comes to light he is also a pedophile.

I don't see him filling any lawsuits for libel.

Any self-respecting person would go to rehab if they thought they had a problem. Somehow, that's a bad decision? Not sure how these other incidences relate to this. Probably shouldn't be allowed in.

Seen this in the ABC, CBS or NBC News in the last year?

What About Waters?

Graft: House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has called for an ethics investigation of Rep. Anthony Weiner for possibly misusing official resources. But what about the probe of Rep. Maxine Waters for abusing her power?

The ethics trial of Waters, accused of swinging millions in federal bailout cash to her husband's ailing bank, was set to begin last November.

But the Democrat leadership has delayed Waters' trial by blocking subpoenas and firing the lead lawyer working on the two-year investigation. Also, the ranking Democrat on the House Ethics panel reportedly is holding up the hiring of a new staff director.

In the long stall, we've learned that Waters' chief of staff heavily lobbied bank examiners, who according to internal emails were livid about the intervention.

Pressure from Waters' office resulted in a $12 million federal loan for OneUnited Bank and a unique exemption from the FDIC's accounting rules. One FDIC examiner called it a "travesty of justice."

Waters claims her top aide didn't know her spouse was involved with the bank, even though the aide is also her grandson.

At the time, her husband owned OneUnited stock worth more than $350,000 — a stake that would have been worthless without the bailout.

He'd also served on the board with OneUnited's CEO, a major Waters donor who, according to examiners, ran the minority-owned bank into the ground through his lavish spending and risky investments.

Of the 700 banks receiving TARP funds, OneUnited was the weakest, and it has yet to pay back the loan.

In 2007, according to the Los Angeles Times, OneUnited CEO Kevin Cohee was arrested for cocaine possession. The next year, FDIC cited the bank for "unsafe banking practices," and ordered it to cease and desist.

As her hubby's shares dwindled in value, Waters stepped in. A senior House Financial Services Committee member, she arranged an emergency meeting in 2008 between Cohee and top Treasury officials, who weren't aware of her personal conflict of interest (which she never disclosed).

Despite its reckless record, OneUnited wound up with taxpayer bailout cash intended for sound banks.

While under investigation, Waters got a provision added to the Dodd-Frank Act exempting minority owned banks from the new oversight.

She remains ranking member of a banking subcommittee and chief deputy minority whip in the House. Who will hold her to account?

I'm both son.

One of the participants left his vehicle with a particular target in mind with a loaded weapon. In the end, that target was dead.

Nothing was questionable... up to that point.

So now we have the justice system doing it's job.

I have yet to see anyone spin that, other than to claim Zimmerman is being railroaded by racists (which, btw, has not been proven!)
