From NY Daily News: A Miami funeral director says Trayvon Martin’s body showed no signs of a violent brawl.
Richard Kurtz said his examination of the slain Florida teen’s corpse revealed no cuts, scratches or bruises, only a gunshot wound to the chest.
Kurtz’s account appears to contradict George Zimmerman’s claims that he shot Trayvon during a life-and-death struggle.
“We could see no physical signs like there had been a scuffle [or\] there had been a fight,” Kurtz told CBS News.
“The hands — I didn’t see any knuckles, bruises or what have you, and that is something we would have covered up if it would have been there.”
Trayvon “looked perfectly normal to me when he came in and the story just does not make sense that he was in this type of scuffle or fight in anything that we could see,” Kurtz added.
