Zimmermann is a brown guy mostly, I know Latino is not a race but they are brown.

If you look at the mugshots from the first to the last they make his skin lighter and lighter.

Why are they doing this?

Zimmerman is of Peruvian descent. He's obviously of mixed race (ie. mestizo).

It might to have been mostly white but as we all know other races lived there. Could we stop the race baiting.

I know but his skin is brown and they keep making him look different.

Maybe they desperately want to hang onto that white versus black angle.

Maybe he looks whiter now because he has been in hiding (no sun exposure).

Or maybe it's because he's half white.

I don't get lighter that quick. I have always had a brown tint. Maybe as some believe it's Native American.

Pay attention. Mainecoon wants to know why a black kid was walking through a white neighborhood at 9:00 pm.
