NOW who's trying the case through the media?

When Zimmerman was walking around free with no charges against him, the Zimmerman defenders bizarrely portrayed those who were calling for justice - meaning a serious investigation and an arrest - as a lynch mob who was attempting to try the case in the court of public opinion. Now that Zimmerman has finally been charged and the case is in the hands of capable prosecutors and defense attorneys, the Zimmerman defenders are out in the media in full force. Who leaked the medical report from the Zimmerman family doctor? Zimmerman's defense obviously. Why are autopsy reports divulged only by anonymous sources being treated as official documents? If the Zimmerman supporters are so confident of their case, why not just let the trial unfold instead of trying to poison a potential jury pool? I personally think the family doctor's report is BS, but I'm willing to wait and let that be determined at trial. Why are the Zimmerman defenders so afraid of an official trial where evidence goes through proper channels? Especially if the media is as biased against Zimmerman as they always claim?
