July 2, 2013: Knows George Zimmerman well, he says, at least for five years. He's his best friend. He came to the subdivision and took them somewhere.
They were in the car together while Zimmerman told him about the shooting. He described the Martin boy as tall and slender, and was looking into houses, and that he was a black male.
Zimmerman told him thought it was suspicious because it was raining and dark and he had never seen him before.
Zimmerman called the non-emergency police number. He told him that he parked in the clubhouse and that Trayvon walked around the car and looked at him briefly.
Zimmerman told him he didn't know the name of the street (there are only three streets in the entire subdivision).
The dispatcher told him they didn't need him to follow Trayvon, but Zimmerman continued following anyway.
Mr Osterman wrote a book about the entire thing. He keeps smiling all the time, especially at George Zimmerman.
Then he said Trayvon approached him, and when Zimmerman reached for his phone in his pocket and Trayvon then struck him in the nose.
This guy has his story memorized, word for word. His knees were over Zimmerman on the ground and George began screaming for help, and Trayvon started bashing his head on the pavement.
He told him that Trayvon covered his nose and mouth and George couldn't breathe. He says that Trayvon went for the gun.
He said that George said he broke his grip on the gun and when the defendant got the gun away and shot Trayvon.
The prosecutor is quoting from the book and Osterman says that was what Zimmerman told him.the man said something after he shot him.
