That appears to be why the ear-witnesses thought it was Martin, they made that assumption that the yelling ended because he was dead. It's plausible, but so is Zimmerman being in shock. The witnesses said they yelled out to him afterwards and it took 3 times before he reacted. And the witnesses can't seem to agree who was on top of who.
But maybe someone has a cell phone video or voicemail message/greeting of Martin's voice that can be compared to the audio. The police have to have Zimmerman on audio from interviews, or he might even be willing to have the the police recording him yelling now (much less likely now that he's lawyered up though). That's my hope, That science can sort it out. If Zimmerman is charged or convicted or not charged or acquitted just based on which testimony the jurors believe or don't believe, that's going to suck.
