"After the interviews were made public, Serino requested a transfer to patrol duty, including the overnight shift. He later told FBI investigators that he felt pressured by his colleagues, three African-American officers, to file charges." Tape-recorded interviews between Serino and Zimmerman revealed the investigator doubted Zimmerman’s story almost from the beginning, saying he suspected it to be “scripted.” Three days after the shooting, Serino, a 15-year-veteran, grilled Zimmerman about what he believed were holes in his account of what happened that might. Serino viewed Zimmerman’s injuries as inconsistent with his story. In the police interview, Zimmerman told Singleton he was suspicious of Trayvon because the teen was walking casually in the rain and there had been several recent break-ins and other property crimes in the Retreat at Twin Lakes neighborhood. “These guys always get away,” Zimmerman said to Singleton, acknowledging he had previously reported suspicious people to police but had never before seen Trayvon. “It’s always dark. They always come around at nighttime.”
