Maybe a civil suit will find him 70% (or any % at fault) and award what they feel will be appropriate monetary compensation.
The juror writing the book has already said through her agent that based on how he was charged and the instructions the jury was given, there was no choice but to find him innocent. Should make for an interesting book since her husband is an attorney and will coauthor it with her.

Very good point. Since there were no cameras and no witnesses that saw how the fight started all we had was Zimmerman's word and in this case there wasn't enough evidence to prove that he wasn't telling the truth. If Zimmerman isn't telling the truth we will likely never know.
