George Zimmerman's self-defense claim could be hurt by his own witnesses, who have changed their accounts since they were interviewed early on in the Trayvon Martin case.
The Orlando Sentinel reported that four witnesses' statements regarding the Feb. 26 shooting changed significantly when they were interviewed a second time in March. The statements are included in the collection of evidence officially released by the State Attorney's Office last week.

Those witnesses will be shredded at trial. It's hard to convince a jury that somehow a witness suddenly has a sharper account of an event months later than the day of, or shortly after an event.LadyJazzer wrote:
