I do not recall any mention of Deedee's age other then she knew Trayvon since Kindergarten. Maybe you are getting your data from the same source that had Trayvon's 2011 "cherub" photo as a twelve year old?
I guess you just ignored all the different news outlets stating such.
From CNN.

Crump said the witness was 16 years old. But prosecutors have since said she was already 18 -- legally an adult -- on the night of the killing, February 26, 2012, in Sanford, Florida.

KYRA PHILLIPS, CNN ANCHOR: Hello, everyone. I'm Kyra Phillips. It's 11:00 on the East coast, 8:00 out West and we do have a chilling new perspective on the shooting death of an unarmed Florida teen by a neighborhood watch volunteer last month.
ABC News has spoken with a 16-year-old girl who was on the phone with TM during that fatal encounter with GZ in a gated community just north of Orlando. Take a listen to this.
(BEGIN AUDIO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Then the man said, "What are you doing around here?" Then somebody pushed TM because the head set fell."
(END AUDIO CLIP)
Well, GZ says he was acting in self-defense and has never been arrested or charged, but Martin's family and their many supporters claim that racial bias in the shooting and the investigation.
So, now the FBI has stepped in and the Justice Department has opened a civil rights investigation.
CNN legal analyst, Sunny Hostin joining, me now with more on all of this.
Why don't we go ahead and start with TM's cell phone friend? I understand you actually have a copy of her sworn affidavit. Give us the details, Sunny. We'll kind of unfold the conversation from there.
SUNNY HOSTIN, CNN LEGAL ANALYST: Good morning, Kyra. I do not have a copy, though, of the sworn affidavit, but I did speak to one of the Martin family attorneys this morning for at least half an hour and she and I discussed this phone call.
Apparently TM on that night had been trading phone calls with a 16-year-old friend, a girl, and as they traded phone calls, one of the last phone calls, was at about 7:04.
TM told his friend that someone was following him. He was nervous. He was concerned. She explained to him that he should run. He told her he was not going to run, but he was going to walk quickly in an effort to get away from the person that he thought was pursuing him.
Well, Kyra, she then heard TM say to someone, "Why are you following me?"
That person then said to TM, "Who are you? Why are you here? What is your name?"
At that point at about 7:16 p.m., she says that the phone call dropped, that she felt that someone had pushed or tackled TM and, at that point, the phone call dropped.
