To make matters worse, Trayvon had even allegedly made verbal cues that Zimmerman was a "dead man" after discovering Zimmerman's holstered weapon.

Zero evidence that GZ's head was "smashed against the pavement," which was the only real way the defense argued that he was in a life-threatening situation. In fact, Trayvon's body was found a good distance from the sidewalk itself, so unless he was dragged or walked with a bullet in his heart, very little of the pavement saw action.
But good for you buying into the defense's narrative 100% while considering yourself some sort of objective witness of the evidence.
