George Zimmerman is back home
 

where he belongs :thumbsup :thumbsup

By Associated Press

Update: The Seminole County Sheriff's Office has issued a news release confirming that George Zimmerman is in its custody.

MIAMI (AP) ? George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer charged with murder in the killing of Trayvon Martin, surrendered to police Sunday and was booked into jail after having his bail revoked two days earlier.

Zimmerman's legal team said in a tweet that he was in police custody. Zimmerman's bail was revoked because the judge said he and his wife lied to the court about their finances so he could obtain a lower bond.

On Sunday afternoon, about 40 minutes before the 2:30 p.m. deadline to surrender, Zimmerman was listed as an inmate on the jail website. He was listed as being held without bail and having $500 in his jail account.

Prosecutors had said Zimmerman and his wife told the judge at a bond hearing in April that they had limited money, even though he had raised about $135,000 through a website. Defense attorneys said the matter was a misunderstanding.

Attorney Mark O'Mara announced earlier Sunday on his website that Zimmerman had arrived in Florida late Saturday evening ahead of his surrender. Zimmerman, who is charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of the 17-year-old Martin, was ordered by a judge Friday to return to jail.

The judge revoked Zimmerman's bond, suggesting he and his wife had not been honest about their finances. During a bond hearing in April, the couple had indicated they had limited funds. But prosecutors say Zimmerman had raised thousands through a website he had set up for his legal defense.

Zimmerman's legal team said Sunday that they will ask for a new bond hearing to address those concerns, and that they hope Zimmerman's voluntary surrender will show he is not a flight risk. Furthermore, the money Zimmerman has raised is in an independent trust and cannot be directly accessed by Zimmerman or his attorneys, according to the press release.

Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty to the second-degree murder charge. He maintains he shot Martin in self-defense under Florida's so-called "stand your ground" law because the teen, who was unarmed, was beating him up after confronting Zimmerman about following him in a gated community outside Orlando.

Zimmerman's credibility could become an issue at trial, legal experts said, noting the case hinges on jurors believing Zimmerman's account of what happened the night in February that Martin was killed.

Zimmerman wasn't charged in the case until more than a month after the shooting. Protests were held across the nation, and the case spurred debate about whether race was a factor in Zimmerman's actions and in the initial police handling of the case. Martin was black; Zimmerman's father is white and his mother is from Peru.

Police in Sanford did not immediately arrest Zimmerman, citing the Florida law that gives wide latitude to use deadly force rather than retreat in a fight if people believe they are in danger of being killed or seriously injured.

Zimmerman was arrested 44 days after the killing, and during a bond hearing in April, his wife, Shellie, testified that the couple had limited funds available. Zimmerman took the stand at the hearing and apologized to Martin's parents.

Prosecutors pointed out in their motion that Zimmerman had $135,000 available then. It had been raised from donations through a website he had set up. They suggested more has been collected since and deposited in a bank account.

Shellie Zimmerman was asked about the website at the hearing, but she said she didn't know how much money had been raised. Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester set bail at $150,000. The 28-year-old was freed a few days later after posting $15,000 in cash ? which is typical.

Prosecutor Bernie De la Rionda complained Friday, "This court was led to believe they didn't have a single penny. It was misleading and I don't know what words to use other than it was a blatant lie." The judge agreed and ordered Zimmerman returned to jail by Sunday afternoon.

The defense countered that Zimmerman and his wife never used the money for anything, which indicated "there was no deceit."

The judge said he would schedule a hearing after Zimmerman is back in custody so he could explain himself.

Benjamin Crump, an attorney for Trayvon Martin's parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, said his clients have always said Zimmerman should remain in jail until trial.

I really appreciate how you convicted him so quickly. Not sure why we waste time and money on a judicial system.

your jumping the gun :) i meant for the current accusations lying about income calm down.

Don't mind this tool. He is all pro black and doesn't care about the facts of the case.

tool? what does the injury photos have to do with the bail status? nothing! dumb ass :321GFY

He'll walk, or get some sort of wrist slap with a yard stick. Watch...

Free Zimmerman!

If you haven't realized by now that this is nothing more than a fucking dog and pony show, you have a ton to learn in life kiddo.

If they convict him of anything? It will be this shit. It will not be murder, it will not be manslaughter. He will walk away unless they can convict him of something his stupid cunt wife did. And if they do? Slap on the wrist, 6 months max.

Get over it. The fact remains, you were not there, I was not there. Those two were there. Regardless of whether or not he followed some douche bag dispatcher's rules doesn't matter. He did what he did and he is crying that he was scared for his life.

The jury will find it justified on murder, and maybe you will find solace in a minor conviction on perjury. I don't know. I think you are fucking stupid anyways, so I am not sure why I am even bothering.

Enjoy your 15 minutes of feeling good.

If the jury finds Zimmerman innocent I wonder if the blacks are going to burn up there own cities again?:1orglaugh

i think its going to be interesting once internal affairs gets in the mix :)

Why would you even say that? Are you privy to information that the rest of the public doesn't have? What do they have to protect GZ for? Why would they let their entire city and the rest of the country go into a turmoil? To cover up for that moron? YEAH RIGHT.
Get over yourself.

:1orglaugh go back and look! most of the places they attacked were asian and indian owned. around the time rodney king was beat a girl was killed for trying to steal a orange juice.

http://www.nytimes.com/1991/10/12/us...-shooting.html

that was the straw that broke the camels back :2 cents:

do you think if you smacked up you boyfriend/girlfriend and assaulted a police officer both charges would be dropped????

What are you even talking about?

clueless look it up

No, why would I? The facts remain. The guy will walk, and you will be mad, and I will laugh. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

sure they will. They aren't the sharpest things to come out of the primordial ooze over the last 500,000 years
ds

fuck zimmerman

hockey riots are more important :winkwink:

those were canadians. They take their hockey as seriously as you guys take boon ball
ds

why would i be mad if the facts state that he defended himself? i dont know why you are way off topic. :1orglaugh this is about the bail not the murder case! can you understand???

Now, you talkin, that's the national Sport:1orglaugh:thumbsup

:1orglaugh you crack me up with your racist crap

Were are the cities that are 100% black or 90% even? Can you show me those and any evidence that a riot occurred ever in those cities? Are you referring to L.A.? New Orleans was looting not rioting, and many of the people who did loot their did it to survive. I never saw or heard of black people tearing up they own shit on purpose...Now other peoples shit (arabs,koreans, and whites better be on high alert) is a different story :upsidedow

Yea because never mind the fucker already lied about money and a passport. You could care less about the truth or justice, just as long as someone gets away with stalking and killing an unarmed black kid that's all that matters to you because hoodies equal boogy man in your fucked up world.

i order two subs like 3 hours ago where's my shit? :mad:

Forget the nationality of the store owners. Neighborhood businesses were destroyed which made life difficult for everyone else in that area. Very stupid.

.

Fuck George!
Maybe he will become a porn webmaster

i can care less

the places sold adult drinks and cigs :1orglaugh why the fuck are we off topic?

Free Zimmerman!

Its all about lawyers now my little primate. I don't expect you to grasp the idea of it, but you said you watched OJ trial, right?

ds

The greeks were taught by the Africans, do you really want to get schooled? We can turn this trolling shit into a embarrassing history lesson for your race :2 cents:

you see it? :helpme you twist things up not everyone lives in the bush

also for your inventor list they half to be 100% black. I picked a random name, jw winters & he's half black. 1/2 don't count.
ds

He was born in Virginia to an African-American brickmaker and a Shawnee indian

ok :1orglaugh wow

like our prez he's 1/2 black. Not like rev al who's all nlack. I'm sure you see my tacit point, albeit it's not that tacit when you hear them both speak.
ds

The list is also inaccurate.

Just start at the top and take the air conditioning unit. He invented an air conditioning unit that was used on trucks to keep produce cool. He didn't invent air conditioning, that was done by Willis Carrier in 1902.

Patent for peanut butter was given to Marcellus Gilmore Edson when Carver was only 20 years old.

A black man did not invent the cell phone in 1945. etc.
