On Sunday February 26th, I was involved in a life altering event which led me to become the subject of intense media coverage. As a result of the incident and subsequent media coverage, I have been forced to leave my home, my school, my employer, my family and ultimately, my entire life. This website's sole purpose is to ensure my supporters they are receiving my full attention without any intermediaries.
It has come to my attention that some persons and/or entities have been collecting funds, thinly veiled as my “Defense Fund” or "Legal Fund". I cannot attest to the validity of these other websites as I have not received any funds collected, intended to support my family and I through this trying, tragic time.
I have created a Paypal account solely linked on this website as I would like to provide an avenue to thank my supporters personally and ensure that any funds provided are used only for living expenses and legal defense, in lieu of my forced inability to maintain employment. I will also personally, maintain accountability of all funds received. I reassure you, every donation is appreciated.
Sincerely,
George Zimmerman
In NO way does this seem like a smart move on Zimmerman's part.
He has already been identified in the press as a potential racist, a gun nut, and a possible murderer, adding grifter to the list just seems incredibly ignorant.
Jesus who is giving this guy advice,Tank Jones?
Of course this website launch comes on the heels of news that the shooting case will not go to the grand jury.
So what do you all think? Am I being too harsh?
Is Zimmerman simply trying to earn money for the cost of defending his case in court, or is he making money off of the death of a seventeen year old boy?
Update:
It looks like Zimmerman's attorneys have had enough. In a joint press conference Tuesday afternoon, attorneys Hal Uhrig and Craig Sonner announced from Sanford, Florida that they would, at this time, not be representing George Zimmerman after losing contact with him over the weekend.His attorneys say that they do not know Zimmerman’s exact location and have no confirmation from his side that he still wants them to represent him in any possible case involving the February 26 murder of Trayvon Martin.
Both Uhrig and Sonner told reporters that they “had a good working relationship” with Zimmerman up until this weekend, at which point contact between the two parties began to deteriorate. On Monday it was revealed the Zimmerman had launched his own website where he was accepting monetary donations for his legal defense, which his attorneys revealed on Tuesday that they were not privy to beforehand.
I am beginning to think that Zimmerman is toast. And that does not break my heart one little bit.
Santorum just dropped out.....woohooo
ReplyDeleteWrong thread.
Deletepiss off
DeleteYep, grifting 101 as taught by baldy herself. Living expenses, wonder if that means he just put some $$ down on his own Gulfstream? Easier to fly around the states allowing shoot before you ask letting him walk down the street in black neighborhoods calling out his own name - "lock and load fella's cuz I'm coming for ya?
ReplyDeleteA bit O/T, but I was reminded since you are talking about shooting...:
DeleteOne of my teabagger 'friends' sent me a very offensive post on my FB page with a picture of a gun, that said: "Due to price increase on ammo, do not expect a warning shot! Sorry, but times are hard." :/
If you have teabagger friends, what does that say about you?
DeleteHe's making money off killing a young boy.
ReplyDeleteHis site is already celebrating the defacement of a black community center. He's added an American flag (for the racist patriots, dontcha know).
No, I don't think you are Gryphen, not at all. The whole thing stinks to high heaven and somebody is giving him stupid advice.
I predict the site won't stay up for long.
And O/T but awesome that Frothy Fecal Matter has dropped his campaign bid. Yay, us! (thought I totally wish his little girl well) her dad sucks.
By celebrating the defacement of a black community center, he is giving ammo to the DOJ to support the fact that he is a racist!That might turn out to be a good thing.
DeleteThis is one rotten, low-down, no good scum bag. So sad, but there will be some people rushing to contribute.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking CofP will be sending him a large one momentarily. 5 - 4 - 3 - 2
Delete(Ok, ok, so I'm just another snarky bitch. Deal with it!)
Unbelievable.....and pretty disgusting too.
ReplyDeleteYou're not being too harsh. I have to wonder is Zimmerman related to Sarah Palin? They have a lot in common. They both play victim, are racists, grifters, paranoid & cowards.
ReplyDeleteThose two sound like a lotta people I grew up with.
DeleteIn all fairness, with all the attention this case is drawing, I'm sure he's not working and he has lawyers that need to be payed. One of the reasons I think his lawyers left him was because they weren't being paid, and they already got the free publicity they wanted.
DeleteAlthough I too question his innocence, but beside needing a good attorney or two, he also needs a good PR firm. He at least should have thought this one out more and probably should have used a third party to collect money for him to live on and pay his lawyers. I also hope his family is helping him emotionally.
The other question we should be aware of is how all this stress is effecting his thinking. Many years ago I was in a fight for custody of my children since my ex-wife was a mental case (seriously), I learned how stress can affect you. I was fortunately wise enough that I knew I needed a psychologist and visited her once a month. Without her I have no idea how I would have manage my affairs.
He needed a psychologist before this happened. It can only be worse now. If only the police and district attorney had done their jobs in the first place, Zimmerman would have been arrested and there wouldn't be national outrage to this degree.
DeleteAll he needs is the Palin seal of grifting approval and he's good.
ReplyDeleteI can think of a place he can go where he'll have no expenses at all: JAIL.
SAnitarium cuts a deal, for the VP slot? so drops out of the race.
ReplyDeletezimmerman is being told its good presidential politics to run as the VICTIM( you know how the blacks just own society right??)because he can get a movie deal and a book deal off the racists alone!
so florida turns into a vote for the racist obama cause only black men are racists, or the perfect white guy romney, (who to my knowledge hasnt said a word about the Martin murder)who no doubt will feed into how the whites are really the victims as the election draws closer.
thats the way i see this all playing out.
btw...in florida a grand jury is not needed here to return a bill of indictment.
i expect zimmerman to be charged with a crime but it will be the least punishable the law allows.
this is now about covering up the way the police and the elected officials in that part of florida(at least) turn a blind eye to and have covered up crimes against blacks and no doubt all minorities.
the justice dept needs to investigate but i do not believe they will get involved once zimmerman gets his token charge.
Santorum for VP would be a terrible choice thinking electorally, except that he's from Pennsylvania, which is a contested state, though I don't think anyone in Pennsylvania likes him, because Romney's up by 5 there.
DeleteIt's gonna be Marco Rubio or Nikki Haley, maybe Bobby Jindal. They are going to try to play the same thing they did in 2008, a Demographic-Targeted Candidate, but perhaps one who has a bit more gravitas than last time.
My bet is Santorum was offered a cabinet position, for which he will be incredibly unqualified.

So, other people were already trying to grab money intended for him?
ReplyDeleteIt’s certainly in bad taste, but I think he’s beyond worrying about taste. I think he’s a dead man. The racist pennies will go to his family.
The Martin's will file a wrongly death suit, and they will get ever every penny he gets.
DeleteOK, no one has mentioned this on the radio yet. To me, it seems that the Grand Jury would be filled with like minded racists, so the DOJ attorney decided to forego that route. Instead, just have him arrested and arraigned, and proceed on a federal civil rights charge. IMHO
ReplyDeleteTap Duncan
No, from what I understand, a Grand Jury is only required (in FLA) if someone is being charged with first degree murder. He cannot be charged with that, because he did not know Trayvon, ergo he could not have been premeditating on shooting him.
DeleteThere is no specific length of time you must know someone in order to be charged with premeditated murder nor do you have to "know" someone in order to be charged with premeditated murder. Zimmerman could have formed the intent to murder while watching Martin walk down the street that night, imagining him as the "guy who got away" or something similar. I'm not saying this is what he did but this is how some defendants come to be charged with 1st degree murder.
DeleteIf a prosecutor decides to charge someone with 1st degree murder, the defendant must be indicted first by a Grand Jury.
I hope that Zimmerman ends up doing a significant amount of time in jail for taking an innocent life. There's just no other way around it for me.
Yep, as usual G-Man, you are right on!

ReplyDeleteThere are so many things that can and should go wrong for Zimmerman. He's at least alive to fight another day. I still have not heard if TrayVon was shot in the back as I suspect. May I say that he will be lucky to make it to trial and if convicted, manage to stay alive in prison.
ReplyDeleteWait until more information comes out on Zimmerman.....he's so damn scared right now...not so tough after all and he knows it takes big money to defend himself. Karma is gonna get you in the end...
My tears go out to the Martin family. Justice will be served.

DeleteMy first thought is how do we know this is actually the "real" Zimmerman's website???
ReplyDelete*****
But, if it is - it is a terrible idea. If it was advised by his new attorney, will we hear of a 3rd attorney being hired, shortly?
It has those 'dog whistles' patriotism via some of the quotes and putting the American flag center stage.
The oddest bit is the topic "My Race" with a Thomas Paine quote. Let's just say, if this is his website than he is not using his "Common Sense"!
In trying to deflect the talk of him being a racist, he is just emphasizing it.
Levi's mom got jail time for selling a few pills and Zimmerman may get none for shooting a teenager.
ReplyDeleteHopefully he will do time.
I read this yesterday on Think Progress. Are you going to post the news about Santorum tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteTroll snark.
DeleteIt took me awhile to get through to his site, it appears he has a max on simultaneous connections or bandwidth. If he exceeds a certain amount they may take him off to make him put himself into a higher tier plan for his web service.
ReplyDeleteZimmerman's (pathetically bad from a design -standpoint) site is serviced by GoDaddy, which has in the past succumbed to pressure by the public to change policies (http://www.godaddy.com/newscenter/release-view.aspx?news_item_id=378&isc=smfb2).
Perhaps we should get together and tell GoDaddy what we think?
Perhaps we should also create a Google problem for him.
DeletePerhaps you should mind your own business
DeleteIf he is now jobless, homeless, etc., maybe he would have been better off had he been arrested at the outset. Then he'd have a place to sleep and food to eat - not the best accommodations - but there ought to be some kind of consequence for killing another human being. It looks like he wants to be a celebrity instead of a defendant. I personally hope that he gets arrested soon.
ReplyDeleteOnly warped mined Repubs are making him a celebrity.
DeleteG, you point out that the case will not go to the grand jury, but I've read that in Florida a grand jury is required only for premeditated murder. WaPo says, "Under Florida law, only first-degree murder cases must be presented before a grand jury," but the prosecutor, who has a history of being extremely tough, has other tools to hand. I wouldn't second-guess her at this point.
ReplyDeleteSo you think its ok for TM's family to not only ask for donations but to sell memorabilia ?? But not ok for GM ?? That's BS http://www.wearetrayvonmartin.com/index.php/component/content/article?id=8
ReplyDelete“So you think its ok for TM's family to not only ask for donations but to sell memorabilia ?? But not ok for GM ??”
Delete---------------------------------------
YES! YES! YES!
The proceeds from the memorabilia will go towards:
“legal fees, travel expenses, and the uphill battle that lies ahead.”
Yes, many of us, are already aware of the Trayvon Martin memorabilia being sold for LEGAL FEES, and TRAVEL EXPENSES. That is an old story. You will get no outrage from me. FAIL.
George Zimmerman is still alive, and can speak for himself. George Zimmerman is acting like he’s the victim, and wants to be a fucking celebrity! George Zimmerman is grifting. Trayvon Martin’s family is not. George Zimmerman’s defenders have been going on a media blitz, making up all kinds of BULLSHIT stories! George Zimmerman’s family talks like they were there, but they don’t know shit, because they weren’t there! At least Trayvon Martin’s family, and lawyers aren’t making up all kinds of stories about what happened. Trayvon Martin’s family needs all the help they can get. Because unlike George Zimmerman, Trayvon Martin doesn’t have a retired federal judge for a father, to bail him out of trouble. I have seen no ugliness coming from Trayvon Martin’s family. All the ugliness is coming from the George Zimmerman side.
Who does George Zimmerman have defending him in public? He’s got his racist S.O.B. father, who won’t even show his stupid face, a brother who hasn’t spoken to him in years, a token black guy who doesn’t even know him, and incompetent lawyers who have never even met George Zimmerman, or looked at the evidence! No matter how you spin it, George Zimmerman, stalked, and shot, and killed an unarmed 17 year-old boy. George Zimmerman is fucking guilty! Meanwhile, George Zimmerman is making up lies about having ‘shaken baby syndrome,’ and celebrating racist vandalism at a black community center, only proving that he really is a filthy, racist piece of shit, just like you! The BS is coming from George Zimmerman, and his racist apologists! FUCK OFF!
P.S. troll,

DeleteAnon 2:59 PM Your comment is SO DAMN Ignorant!
Deletehmmmm...it was a life *ending* event for Trayvon. One thing nice about using paypal--it will be easy to trace his assets when the boy's parents sue his a$$ off.
ReplyDeleteExactly. The Martin's will sue his a$$. People who defend him are bragging about his book deal he might get,. Well I am here to tell them, the Martin's will get all that money from any book deal or whatever.
DeleteMaybe not, when it comes out that Trayvon was stalking Zimmerman. And hey maybe we should look into the criminal past of Trayvon's parents, since we are getting nasty...
DeleteI heard Mark Geragos on Cooper Anderson (I think) discussing the case, and when asked if it was wrong for Zimmerman to facebook and start a defense fund, Geragos said he encouraged that action for some of his clients. He feels that instead of taxpayers dollars funding the defense, contributing donors can help instead.
ReplyDeleteI personally don't think it's appropriate, especially in Zimmerman's case, where he in fact did shoot and kill an unarmed innocent 17 year-old. I hope this further proves to State of FL that he is a pathetic unrepentent killer/now grifter. I can't believe this; the Martin family should not have to deal with this on top of everything else.
It is retroactive gladiatorial - do a crime and hope it is infamous or heinous enough that you get supporters - panem et kirkensis.
DeleteCorporations are people, too. He's already contacted Sean Hannity... my gut is telling he George is on a Koch yacht headed for who knows where. The website is just a smokescreen to detract attention while he flees.
DeleteI sincerely hope I'm wrong.
Sean Hannity should lose his job, trying to try this case on Fox News is disgusting.
I find it endlessly fascinating (and alternately sad and terrifying) that the least desirable traits found in racist or conservative or rightwing people are all fully embodied in Sarah Palin, and more.
ReplyDeleteShe is a GROTESQUE outpicturing of the worst examples of despicable demogoguery and political grandstanding, mixed in with mental illness, pathological lying, rampant narcissism, sexual abuse survivor, complete lack of self examination, drug abuse and caffeine addiction.
I suspect that this Zimmerman character is much worse than any of us know.
Don't be too sanctimonious, your forbears murdered millions in the name of the "proletariat" and progressive politics.
DeleteWell, it looks like Zimmerman has no representation as of 4:45 pm eastern time. He cut off contact with his attorneys, and has only spoken to Sean Hannity.
ReplyDeleteHis lawyers have dropped him like a hot potato.
Also, too: The lawyers never actually MET him in person...
DeleteIs anyone watching the press conference by Zimmerman's attorneys? They no longer represent him because they haven't been able to contact him since Sunday; he hasn't returned their calls.
ReplyDeleteUpdate: Zimmerman's attys have left him after no contact with him for days and finding out he has been in contact with Sean Hannity!
ReplyDeleteNot being too harsh, Gryphen. Why does this sack of shit need money if he isn't facing charges? The whole thing reminds me of the infamous "blood libel" video. This asshole, and he alone, put himself in this position. These don't seem like the actions of someone who is really torn up about killing a kid.
ReplyDeleteJust so you know the excuse he will use(or would have tried to use before they broke ties with him)is that he had to hire legal representation.
DeleteOoooops, that won't carry much water now that his legal team has quit.
People already donated over $10K to Zimmerman's website. Now his lawyers just announced they are withdrawing from his defense, they haven't talked to him in two days, still never met him.
ReplyDeleteZimmerman apparently talked to Sean Hannity at FOX without consulting his lawyers. Zimmerman created his website without consulting his lawyers. Hannity will not tell the lawyers what Zimmerman talked to him about.
I think Zimmerman is a coward, like Bin Laden. He murders, then hides and sends messages via surrogates.
I also think Zimmerman is long gone, probably out of the country by now, drinking margaritas down in Peru where his mama is from, spending the website donation money.
Now it's gonna be a man hunt. They should have arrested him the night it happened. This is so sad for Trayvon's family, they may never see justice.
His running cements the fact that he should have been arrested and not have been allowed to walk the night it happened. It has been utterly sickening to read racist rants defending Zimmerman and demonizing Trayvon. This fool actually tried to apply to become a police officer at least twice but was rejected. His behavior just before, during, and even now more than a month since he killed Trayvon shows clearly why their rejection of him was justified. I understand that a psychological evaluation was conducted on him and that was at least one reason he was rejected. From the Sanford PD whose
Delete"investigation" was a piss-poor excuse for one simply because they didn't value Trayvon's life and his ever-enabling father to his attorneys who take his word despite never having met him, along with the loons who insist on defending his indefensible act, they all have egg splattered on their collective faces.
Holy Moly, this will be fun, Soon we might have Palin scoop. LOL

Stand your Ground is a colloquial term that has no legal meaning and is not referenced in the law. The law says you have a right to defend yourself anywhere you are legally entitled to be.
Expected consequences of a bad law.
===================
The above reminded me of a comedy skit heard a few decades ago: Gallagher? Carlin?
You don't need traffic laws, just grant one pedestrian and one driver absolute power to judge and convict(kill) the other group when it does something illegal.
Jaywalk - no problem, unless the pedestrian does so in front of omnipotent driver, then POW!
Not let a pedestrian have the right of way in a crosswalk - no problem, unless onen f those crossing is the omnipotent pedestrian - then - POW!
It would work great, said the comedian, until the one day when the omnipotent pedestrian and the omnipotent driver met at the same crosswalk...
This is exactly the case of the stand your ground law - if that defense is used for George Zimmerman, then it should apply equally or more to Trayvon Martin, (even if he confronted or hit Zimmerman) unless Florida wants to argue that only gun carriers are entitled to its protections.
I wonder if Zimmerman will buy a bus with his defense fund donations and take his family, parents, nephews and nieces on a paid summer vacation and give his version of Paul Revere's Neighborhood Watch ride to warn the British that the hoody wearing Crips and Bloods are coming.
ReplyDeleteOzzie Guillen got 5 days for saying he admired Fidel Castro. He's a baseball manager!
ReplyDeleteTrayvon Martin shooter George Zimmerman spoke to Fox News' Sean Hannity off the record, his now-former attorneys alleged in a remarkable press conference on Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteZimmerman has made no public appearances and given no interviews, and has lost so much contact with his lawyers that they gathered the media in Florida on Sunday to announce that they were dropping him as a client.
During that press conference, they revealed that Zimmerman had had a conversation with Hannity.
"We learned that he had contacted Sean Hannity of Fox News directly, not through us, and we believe, I can't confirm this, we believe that he spoke directly with Sean, off the record, and he's not even willing to tell us what our client told him," attorney Hal Uhrig said.
In an even stranger twist, the site Loop21 published on Tuesday what it said was an email correspondence with Zimmerman. In response to an email asking him to prove he was actually George Zimmerman, the man replied, "Certainly, You can contact Sean Hannity I spoke with him today and he confirmed my identity."
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/10/sean-hannity-george-zimmerman_n_1416080.html?ref=media
Enter one of the biggest d-bags ever...Sean Hannity.
DeleteI don't know how to feel about this, frankly. I mean, clearly the guy *is* going to have problems finding a job and a place to live where people won't harass him. Not saying he deserves to, but from a pure personal survival standpoint, I can kind of understand why he's doing it.
ReplyDeleteAnd especially if there really are fake funds collecting money in his name, it makes some sense that he'd rather get that money himself. At least it would be going where the donors intended.
Again, I'm not validating his actions, just saying that in some sense I can understand them.
It *is* interesting that a guy who is not facing charges needs a "legal defense fund" however.
But really, his situation reminds me of what they taught us in CCW class: Do NOT pull that trigger unless you're absolutely positive you're going to die and there's no other way to escape. Because if you do, justified or not, your life will be ruined.
The problem with Zimmerman is that whether his version of the story is true or not, and which version of Zimmerman and Treyvon is true or not is, on some level, irrelevant. Zimmerman caused the event to happen by not staying away and letting the police handle it. Instead he confronted and whatever happened, happened as a direct result of that.
"justifiable" or not, he made that kid's death, and the subsequent destruction of his OWN life, happen by his own actions. He has no one to blame but himself.
It's clear though that he's gotten special treatment due to his father. The OTHER thing they taught us in CCW class is that if you even SHOW your gun to an unarmed person, you've just technically committed assault and it is within their rights to feel threatened and defend themselves. Even if Treyvon had then pulled a gun and Zimmerman shot him, Zimmerman would still be the assailant and would go to prison because HE was the one who escalated the scenario.
So, I'm really curious exactly how the "stand your ground" law works when the shooter in question pursued and then confronted an unarmed person and shot them. It seems utterly bizarre that one could instigate and create a situation and then claim they were "standing their ground".
The really sick thing is I keep flashing back to that old episode of South Park where they got around the hunting laws by saying: "it's coming right at us" before shooting...
I think you just answered your own question.

ReplyDeleteZimmerman has dropped his lawyers and fled Florida after contacting Sean hannity. WTF? I guess racists gotta stick together. Zimmerman is like Casey Anthony meets Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteBINGO!
DeleteSarah's super popular in "The Villiages", a HUGE community of retired mostly racist teabaggers. They also have "sunshine laws" that allow court cases public domain. Court TV and IN Session make a killing off of showing cases in action.
The attorney general is on GZ's case, if she can find him (big "If"), I'm sure she'll give him jail time, but grand jury in Florida will probably go on the lenient side for GZ,
No, Gryphen, you are not being too harsh. Zimmerman is a vicious liar. I wouldn't be surprised if even if charges are filed, they won't be able to find him. I think he got rid of his attorneys because he won't be able to count on a Grand Jury. Probably scared the shit out of him and his sorry, worthless family and friends.
ReplyDeleteJust heard his lawyer say that Zimmerman is probably suffering from PTDS. Poor Georgie, "under so much stress because I killed a 17 year old unarmed kid". Sounds like Palin. I'd bet that once he got the website set up and money started coming in, he's heading out of the country. He's crazy.
Poor George he is suffering from a well deserved blood label.
DeleteSee if Sarah had just done her usual word salad mispronunciation misuse of the term there would have been only sardonic laughter as a repercussion.
Bullet fired at very close range entered chest and did not exit. Wanna start a pool on whether or not Georgie the manly man was using hollow point, soft lead or dumb dumbs.
Treyvon died awfully quickly, so something inside him chest got torn up big time. Either that or the bullet played pin ball with his heart arteries and lungs.
Blood label indeed.
If Hannity is not talking, then isn't he guilty of obstruction of justice? If he knows that Zimmerman fled and where, isn't he helping to hide a potential criminal?
ReplyDeleteZimmerman hasn't been indicted yet. If/when that happens, if Hannity is interviewed and refuses to tell what he knows, then maybe...
DeleteI wonder if the USA has an extradition treaty with Peru.
Why didn't Casey Anthony think of that? Hell, her attorneys would have set it up for her.

Gryphen, you better be careful what you say. A little known provision of the Florida "Stand Your Ground, You Gun-Toting Hero, You!" law permits ANY Florida resident who feels threatened by your blog posts to board a plane in Orlando, fly to Vancouver, change planes, fly to Sitka, rent a car, ask around, discover you don't live in Sitka, drive to Anchorage, ask around some more, track you down, confront you at gun-point and THEN kill you in obvious self-defense. And the worst part (besides you being dead, of course): the state of Florida will reimburse the 'victim' for the cost of his return flight and replace the ammunition used in your killing from Florida's well-funded Bullets for Bozos program.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't even get me started on Texas' proposed "First Two Are Free" law where, as long as you use a firearm, you can kill up to two people, for any reason, without any consequences, because, as the governor says so eloquently, "hey, everybody makes mistakes".
In defense of TX, it is NOT Florida.
DeleteNo one has seen Zimmerman. They only heard a voice on the phone. Yet everyone seems to believe whatever the voice tells them.
ReplyDeleteIt's like an episode of Twilight Zone.
I posted on some earlier IM blog post days back, that I feel this case is going down the same road as that idiot that murdered Natalie Holloway. His father was a Judge in Holland and pulled a lot of funny crap. I seriously don't trust Zimmerman's ex-judge father and his mother who was a Court Clerk.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't surprise me if they whisked him to someplace that the US can't touch him. The father is reported to have been at the 'scene of the crime' (Little Georgie had enough time between murdering Trayvon and the cops arrival to call Daddy) where the Police Chief and State Attorney also showed up -- late on a Sunday night.
Hmmm - who called them there? Why would some lowlife have the attention of the Police Chief and State Attorney's attendance -- late on a Sunday night if not for the 'Daddy' connection.
Police Chiefs & State Attorneys don't leave their homes 'late on a Sunday night' unless it's a policeman killed, or an elected official -- not the lowlife of a Zimmerman
I do fear this will not make it to the courts, and I fear he is now a flight risk, as you say.
DeleteThis is horrifying.
My only hope is the Special Prosecutor.
The only thing is, if he has already left the country, wouldn't this brash effort to raise money ultimately attract the attention of the Feds?
Or what about the fact that his now-former lawyers say they never met him in person? What's that all about?
I want to know who the third parties are in all of this - the parents, maybe NRA people, who knows?
"I have been forced to leave my home, my school, my employer, my family and ultimately, my entire life."
ReplyDeleteGeorge dear you still have your worthless entire life. It is the teenager you murdered who had to "leave" his life.
Be sure that quote will show up in closing arguments, against you.
Haven't read any comments yet...
ReplyDeleteWhat struck me, reading his 'press release' was that he sounded JUST LIKE $arah - *I* am the victim (even though I KILLED an unarmed teen). *I* need money - send me $$$ so I can live w/o having to have a job (which I didn't have before anyway, but so what?!)...
Sociopaths sound alike.
DeleteZimmerman seemingly is the master of making bad decisions.
ReplyDeleteHe is proving now what he showed when he chased an unarmed teen and then pulled the trigger. He can't think any further forward than the end of his ____(you fill in the blank.) He seems to have thought he could shoot the kid and face absolutely zero responsibility for his act.
And he will never have a career as a murder mystery writer. His plot line is not credible.
I just saw this update posted at the Zimmerman site! So obviously he's still alive and counting the coin he has been receiving....
ReplyDelete"Update as of 1:30pm EST on Tuesday, April 10th
I am attempting to respond to each and everyone of my supporters personally. The support has been overwhelming in volume and strength. I thank you all and ask that you permit me the time to respond to each one of you personally. Once again thank you.
Sincerely,
George Zimmerman"
So he has time to update his money making website...but no time to call his lawyers! WTF!!
Zimmerman also got rid of a photo on his website, the photo of a defaced black community center. Maybe someone tipped him off that he shouldn't indulge his white power fantasies until after his trial is over.
DeleteI figured he would take the photo down. I wish someone had gotten it off the site to record, before he took it down.

Trayvon Attorney Responds To Zimmerman Lawyers’ Withdrawal, Cites Concern For Zimmerman’s ‘Flight Risk’
Crump issued the following statement to TIME:
Trayvon’s family was always concerned that Zimmerman doesn’t try to skirt his legal responsibilities and become a flight risk. We always wanted this before a judge and a jury. We hope that [authorities] will take this under consideration that this a flight risk. If they go to press charges, is he really going to face them?

Just saw this on Twitter....
ReplyDelete"WTOP http://t.co/WJF8zSYy Special prosecutor in Trayvon Martin shooting case says she'll make an announcement in next 72 hours."
Great, so if he's not out of the country yet, he's got 72 hrs to call fox news again, collect koch brothers money, and join the witness protection program through his judge relative.
DeleteHe can run, but he can't hide. The FBI will get him.
Zimmerman actually refers to "this trying, TRAGIC time for HIS family"! WTF? Did he ask Palin how to turn the nation against you even faster than he had been doing? Did she give "blood libel lessons"?
ReplyDeleteThe idea that Zimmerman also tries to reassure his supporters and potential donors that he'll be accountable for the money is also Palinesque. Remember her "hold me accountable" speech? We all know how well that went as she went into hiding and her staff refused to answer subpoenas. Zimmerman has proven himself to be a liar as more and more information comes forward regarding the night of the shooting. It certainly wouldn't instill in me any desire to send him money when he brought all of this upon himself, killing an innocent young man. He's absolutely shameless.
I don't know where GZ is getting his ideas from, maybe Hannity? But whoever is giving him advice is trying to send him to jail despite whatever they may be telling him.
Those who think that there are situations where you can kill an individual, and not suffer consequences, should take this shooting of Trayvon Martin with much reflection. If Zimmerman thought he was cleared a month ago, he now is reaping the consequences of his act. Im sure he full well realizes he f*@ked the pooch by not retreating when he had the chance. How do you feel now tough guy? Living in your own self made hell? Our legislators are now poised to allow the citizens of our state to have the same opportunity as George to impose this type of tragedy on others and themselves. What a bunch morons!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be something if George had a ghostwriter doing all of this for him?
ReplyDeleteWho is advising him, his father?
The NRA?
Nancy French?
DeleteShe is soul less.
Hannity is "palling" around with racist killers!
ReplyDeleteThis press conference had better be a doozie! 72 hours is a lifetime for the Martin Family, haven't they been through enough? And nothing will bring their son back.
ReplyDeleteZimmerman ran to Fox News, took the victim playbook from Sarah Palin herself, so we can assume, since he watches Fox News, he's definately pleading insanity.
I wish he'd do the world a favor and save the taxpayers money, stand his own ground and shoot himself in the chest.
Just happened across this site and wow, seems racism, hate and bigotry are alive and well in America. Cant help but notice all the comments about Zimmerman (who may or may not be guilty), but not one word about the reverend race baiters like Jackson and Sharpton who would sell out any person, black or white for a $100 whore or $100. Needless to say, where is outrarge on the outright and blatant bounty on an a man who hasn't even been sent to trial yet......you people should take a look in the mirror. Jeesh!
ReplyDeleteIf you want to talk whores, seek Todd Palin. I HIGHLY doubt you "happened" across this site.
DeleteAs far as Zimmerman goes, what a great son-in-law he'd be for the Wasilla Whackos. If Sean Hannity has his number, Sarah does too.
What a perfect match.
Eff OFF JERK!

ReplyDeleteWOW! How were you able to type and see the computer with that white pointy hood covering your eyes?
Let's hope you can just "happened across this site"...Stormfront...I'm sure you'll fit right in with the rest of your "Brothers"!
In case that was a little to much for your almond size brain to understand...how bout YOU...
FUCK OFF TROLL!
What do you think ?
ReplyDeleteI've got some really bad news for Travons family and all of us who had hoped that justice would prevail in this horrible incident.
I seriously doubt that the Prosecutor is going to file charges against George Zimmerman, Hear my reasoning, I've listened to the 911 tapes adnauseum , Ran the whole timeline over and over again and at best I could see Manslaughter charges being brought 1) The stand your ground law doesn't disallow Zimmerman going after someone he thought suspicious 2) From the moment Trayvon lost the call with his girlfriend until the first hearing 911 witness we don't know what occured, Only two people do and one of them is dead. 3) And if the Prosecutor did file charges the Sanford Police have botched this case so badly that any Defense Attorney worth their salt could introduce damning evidence like chain of custody , No bagging of the shooters hands, No gun shot residue testing etc etc that a guilty verdict from 12 unbiased jurors would be a reach and likely end up in a hung jury over and over again, I don't think the Prosecutor will but the state at that burden, As it stands Travons parents will have a better chance in civil court and expose the Sanford Fl Police dept as inept, I hope I'm wrong !
YOU ARE WRONG! GET LOST!
DeleteYou are all a bunch of bitter racists up in here. You act like your shit don't stink.
ReplyDelete"Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey"
Please. I don't see any quality of character here. Just bitter BS.
Apparently in Florida Trayvon's parents can't file a civil suit unless he is found guilty.I heard his gun wasn't confiscated.omg is this true.I also read he was going to school to be able to enter law enforcement.And what sort of physical condition was he in.Did he work out I mean if his end goal was to become law officer he surely was making sure he was building muscles.
ReplyDeleteHere's a quote direct from GZ's website in a section called "The Facts". Where does this lowlife creep get off complaining about what he's lost? WTF? What has he lost? Not his life, his ability to laugh, see his family, hug his parents, etc. but he dares to complain about what he's lost when Trayvon Martin's parents had to bury their 17 year old son who did nothing wrong except to be seen walking while black by this racist creep.
ReplyDelete"I am the real George Zimmerman,
On Sunday February 26th, I was involved in a life altering event which led me to become the subject of intense media coverage. As a result of the incident and subsequent media coverage, I have been forced to leave my home, my school, my employer, my family and ultimately, my entire life. This website's sole purpose is to ensure my supporters they are receiving my full attention without any intermediaries.
It has come to my attention that some persons and/or entities have been collecting funds, thinly veiled as my “Defense Fund” or "Legal Fund". I cannot attest to the validity of these other websites as I have not received any funds collected, intended to support my family and I through this trying, tragic time."
Poor George, don't you all feel sorry for him now? Hell, NO!!
wow ,what a bunch of angry little punks.....
ReplyDeleteafter approval uhhhh...god you libs are a trip
ReplyDeleteAll of you seem to be so wrapped around your own hatefulness you just can't see past his race. You assume he is a racist only because he is a different color. You are all ignorant. Look at the facts, THE FACTS, they will be presented. Speculation only leads to more hatefulness.
ReplyDeleteThese comments as I read them from both positions are interesting. I for one whos first girfriend was killed in a similiar manner over 30 years ago, as well as Emmitt Till. This is the issue at hand, the killing of Children by adults and not the money for which this issue is being side tracked of which is so sad. This needs to stop, in other words ' MONEY TALKS AND BULLSHIT WALKS". The killing of this child is not " BULLSHIT". The focus should be let justice take it's course, and in the interim George Zimmerman and his Family should suffer during this process as The Martin Family has and will contiune to suffer, this child has been taken away from his loved ones while on this earth, and therefore Zimmerman and his family should show some remorse and not be benefiting from this event, as well as his attorneys.
