It was reported on April 10, 2012, a mere 10 days before GEORGE ZIMMERMAN’S bond hearing that he called Sean Hannity to tell his side of the story. Sean Hannity is a well known television host, author, and conservative commentator and he is the host of “Hannity” on Fox News Channel.
Critics have asserted that Fox News Channel promotes conservative political positions and biased reporting. Commentators, news anchors, and reporters at Fox News Channel have responded that news reporting and political commentary operate independently of each other and deny any bias in the news reporting.
Here’s what Sean Hannity had to say regarding Zimmerman’s call..
Before continuing with his segment about the case, Hannity wanted to set the record straight:
One of the reasons cited in the press conference was an alleged conversation that George Zimmerman had with me. Before we continue tonight, I want to set the record straight about a couple of things. Now, for a few weeks we have been pursuing an interview with Mr. Zimmerman to give him a chance to tell his side of the story. Yesterday, I was contacted by an individual we believe was George Zimmerman. He reached out to me and we spoke on the phone about his case, and I agreed not to report on the contents of that conversation. That’s it. I know nothing about his relationship with his now former attorneys.
Getting that out of the way, he commenced his discussion about the case.
Now who’s making this case political? Not just Tracey Martin! Soon after GEORGE ZIMMERMAN pulled this inane stunt, his original attorneys withdrew from his case.
This was reported April 10, 2012
Snipped:
On Tuesday afternoon, Craig Sonner and Hal Uhrig, attorneys for George Zimmerman, held a press conference to announce they are withdrawing as his counsel after “losing contact” with their client. They noted that they still consider his actions the night of Trayvon Martin‘s death to have been in self-defense.
The two attorneys shared that they last spoke with their client on Sunday and have since “lost contact” with him after daily contact, adding that, if Zimmerman would like to retain them as counsel, he knows where to reach them.
They added that they had not approved of the way he handled a website created without their consent, and that they “believe,” although cannot confirm, that Zimmerman had reached out to Fox News’ Sean Hannity off the record, later refusing to tell them what he’d shared.
And The Final Straw..
The “final straw” was finding out that Zimmerman had reached out to the Special Prosecutor Corey’s office directly, without first consulting them. “We were a bit astonished,” they noted, adding that the Special Prosecutor’s office had refused to speak to Zimmerman without his counsel, only to have been told by Zimmerman that he merely had “legal advisers,” not attorneys.
Have a look, via CNN:
Onward to the 1st Bond Hearing April 20, 2012
George apologizes to the Martin Family
Huh? What was that??!!
Luckily for his lawyer Mark O’Mara, a highly-respected attorney, GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was granted a reasonable, affordable bail bond set at $150,000. GEORGE ZIMMERMAN ‘s “out-of-donations” cost was a meager $15,000. The bond was paid. GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was released from jail on April 22 with little fanfare. There was no protesting or outrage reported by Seminole County reports or Sanford Police Dept. Everything went swimmingly.
George was free to leave jail and into the arms of his loving wife Shellie, into the safe confines of his hidden hideout, amongst his family and friends. The solitude must have been deafening.
George could count his donations everyday, surf the web, throw in a jab every once in awhile on the Trayvon Martin blogs or maybe give a high-five to the conservatives who exult him. Life was grand. His name was now and forever in history books. George was on the map and on his way to great accomplishments that he had always dreamt of.
He’ll always be known as the Neighborhood Watch Captain who stood his ground when he was getting his butt kicked by a young man, barely into his 17th year of life and who he outweighed by 36lbs. Yes, he’ll go down in infamy as the guy who protected Retreat Townhomes from an unarmed teenager who was visiting a family friend who also resided in his community where he rented a townhouse.
”Hey, Not So Fast!”
That’s what Prosecutor Bernie de la Riondio was thinking. A few savvy Seminole County court investigators came bearing gifts to de la Riondio’s office. They came to report some intriguing phone calls being made at John E. Polk Correctional Facility.
It seems that GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was in the process of wheeling and dealing several large sums of money from a PayPal account aka “Peter Pan” and moving funds daily in increments of $9,999 a pop, everyday, as many times allowed, George instructed his wife Shellie to keep the funds moving. These funds were being transferred into Shellie and George sister’s bank accounts. Some money was being hidden into Shellie’s safety deposit box.
George even made sure Shellie threw a few bucks to his mother. He nefariously spoke in code when referring to the amount as $9 dollars just under 10. All references of the money were implied as tens and hundreds, not thousands.
Here are the calls in question:

After listening to these calls, Prosecutor Bernie De la Riondio immediately reflected upon the April 20th bond hearing when Shellie Zimmerman, George’s wife swore that the couple were indigent. It was this fact that the Zimmerman’s were indigent that persuaded Judge Lester to hand down a $150,000 bond instead of $1Million as prosecutor Bernie de la Riondio had requested.
As a bonus, in one of the conversations between Shellie and George, it was revealed that she had ANOTHER passport for George in a safety deposit box. This one was current and didn’t expire until March 2014 unlike the passport he handed over to the court which expired in May 2012.
When de la Riondio brought this passport revelation and the money transfers to Judge Lester’s attention, he immediately sought to revoke GEORGE ZIMMERMAN’s bond. On June 3, George Zimmerman returned to jail to await another bond hearing scheduled June 29, 2012. Until then GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was placed on “no bond status” by Judge Lester.
June 1, 2012
Motion to Revoke George Zimmerman’s Bond
http://media.cmgdigital.com/shared/news/documents/2012/06/01/MotionToRevokeBond.pdf
At the hearing June 1st, defense Attorney Mark O’Mara tried to explain away to Judge Lester, that George was a confused 28-year old man who had trust issues. As for the passport, O’Mara claimed he had given him the second passport but he (O’Mara) forgot to give it to the court earlier. At the time it seemed Judge Lester was satisfied with the explanation and set another Bond Hearing for June 29.
Bond Hearing June 29
For all of Mark O’Mara’s hard work, putting on a mini-trial to favor George Zimmerman, and even asking if George could get on the stand to explain without prosecutor Bernie de la Riondio cross examining his client, it was quickly denied. For all the preparation for the lengthy hearing apparently Judge Lester was not impressed.
Judge Kenneth Lester expounded on the passport issue in his bond order stating that George and his wife could have been preparing to leave the country with $130,000 and a passport in hand. Judge Lester upped the original bond to $1Million.
Order Setting Bail
http://184.172.211.159/~George Zimmermandocs/documents/bond_order/doc20120705113028.pdf
Thanks to contributions donated to the George Zimmerman Legal Fund, he had $211,000. Mark O’Mara, his attorney who has control of the funds was able to pay $100,000, 10% of $1Million which was enough to bail him out of jail for the second time. He is now beseeching more money for George because George just cost his donators $100,000 for no other reason but being dumb, not to mention George lost the first bail deposit of $15,000, 10% of $150,000.
According to Reuters..
Snipped:
On July 6, 2012 at 2:49pm EDT , Zimmerman walked out of the John E. Polk Correctional Facility in Sanford, Florida, and is expected to be moved to a temporary safe house secured by his lawyer.
In setting the $1 million bond on Thursday, Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester said he believed Zimmerman and his wife Shellie had intended to flee the country but were thwarted by the judge’s requirement that Zimmerman wear an electronic monitoring device.
Shawn Vincent, who manages the website for O’Mara, told Reuters on Friday the largest donation overnight was $1,000, and that most contributions ranged between $10 and $25.
Since May 3, when O’Mara took control of Zimmerman’s defense fundraising, donations have averaged $500 to $1,000 per day, he said.
What Will George Do Next?
I suggest a reality show, “Reckless George“. George is like a bad kid that you just can’t leave alone too long because you never know what he’ll do. Mark O’Mara best be ready. GEORGE ZIMMERMAN has been thinking and we all know what that can lead to, another huge screw up for Poor Boy George.
How do you stop him? Jail couldn’t stop him! I’m sure his daddy Robert Zimmerman Sr. has asked himself this question on several occasions throughout his lifetime. “What will George do next? This unruly child, mischievous, hyperactive and sometimes gloomy kid was a handful, I’m sure. And now as a gun-toting adult, it must have been of great concern for PaPa Zim.
This perceivably meek man, with a soft voice, who wants to be a judge so badly that he played judge, jury and unfortunately executioner on February 26, 2012. His teenage victim fought a good fight. First he ran from him then he bravely confronted the strange pursuer to ask a perfectly logical question, “Do you have a problem?”
Trayvon Martin barely 17 years old, only 11 days into his 17th year of life, was scoped out and aimed upon by a so-called 28-year old man named George Michael Zimmerman, the self-proclaimed Neighborhood Watch Captain. When asked if he had a problem, instead of replying “Yes I do have a problem, I’m the Neighborhood Watch Captain and you seem to be acting suspicious” No, that was too hard for George to say because it was the truth and “The Truth and George Zimmerman are strangers”, quoting Judge Stan Strickland as applied to Casey Anthony.
I’m getting me a big bag of Skittles and tall can of Arizona Ice Tea
just to watch as the George Zimmerman
Saga unfolds.
Ohh..it’s getting good.

The prosecution-team will likely lose their jobs just like after the Casey Anthony verdict and so too may the Judge after some of his rulings get reviewed by higher courts. They just can’t seem to screw things up quick enough. Good article JB, thanks!
Thanks JB,
You can only imagine what the judge thought listening to these calls and Zimmerman whispering like they weren’t going to be able to hear him or make out what he’s doing.
On the second call whe his wife says they are celebrating, what is she talking about?
You would think that he had it made until, like you said what would he do next?
You can only imagine how Trayvon felt when this sneaky person following him around must have felt.
Wonder where Ken is now.
Well, gonna go and read some more of Baez’s book. Sure am enjoying it.
Then come back and read some more of your writing.
Always interesting! : )
Hey Jess,
Tell it to the Judge..lol Cuz Judge Lester has your boy pegged to a “T”. He’s a loose cannon and you know it.
I love it when you come here. You just don’t know. The more you gripe, the better I like it. It just reaffirms everything that I said is the truth.
Thanks for stopping by…
Have a great day! Cuz you know I am.
Lolypop,
Hmm..good question. Where is Ken? The funny thing about GZ moving the money is he REALLY thought it was his money to do what he wanted. Obviously, he just doesn’t get it.
Imagine how all of those donators would have felt, had he ran off? OMG!!
Good site here;
http://axiomamnesia.com/2012/07/05/detailed-analysis-judge-lesters-1m-bond-ruling-exposing-zimmerman-plot-murder-escape-2/
Excellent analysis!! Its nice to see I’m not alone. There are others besides Judge Lester and myself who see Zim as a manipulator.
http://trayvon.axiomamnesia.com/zimmerman-9-1-1-calls/
previous 911 calls.
Well Jess,
I just saw your picture and you look like a monkey.
As for where Trayvon Martin WAS Going..We’ll never know. But what I DO KNOW is George Zimmerman didn’t go ANYWHERE in his screwed up 28 years years of life. His future certainly didn’t look bright. The only thing he had was dreams of being a judge. He failed at becoming a cop. He has no accomplishments. No Degree, No Nothing. He skipped from Job to Job…more like a Grifter.
What I DO KNOW “TODAY” He’s facing charges of 2nd Degree Murder. <—Now that's a FACT JACK! LOL
Jess,
Marijuana will probably be legalized within the next 20yrs, much like alcohol. Remember the Prohibition? It’ll happen, and when it does, it’ll get the goons out of the business, less crime, less drunk drivers, less senseless killings because some alcoholic got angry at a bar room.
I’m optimistic.
JB,
Why does George tell the 911 Dispatcher not to let them know his name. Isn’t he the Neighborhood Watch Person? Everyone should know his name and be very well aquainted with him, as any Neighborhood Capain would be or he would certainly look suspicious himself.
They said that he lost his job over this? Are they kidding me? He and his wife BOTH have a job, but by hearing these calls, he has nothing else to do.
Exactly, JB,
You know the judge has seen him for what he is. The 911 Dispatchers should have told him, all of these were such trivial calls and it’s plain to see, maybe he should have asked the
the 911 dispatchers if they were hiring.
Hi Loly,
I think you’re referring to GZ’s call to report kids playing in the street? Really, that was soo trivial. Definitely not a reason to call 911.
Ha! I don’t think he’d be suited for a job as 911 dispatcher either. I don’t think he’d pass the psychological exam to get into LE. JMO
Now Call #2 was scary. If his wife wasn’t there, he probably would have went out the door to hunt him down too.
That’s insane.
As a matter of fact, just last night when I brought my dog out, I witnessed something strange. I saw a truck blocking a car at the Stop sign. The guy in the truck was in the middle of the intersection, not allowing the car to cross.
As I’m watching this for about a minute, my neighbor who was outside too came over to me & asked “what’s going on over there?” I said I didn’t know.
She suggested we call 911. OK..lol Regular 911, not the non-emergency number.
Anyway, I said, “yeah, maybe we should but I don’t have my phone and I don’t want miss anything” so she decided to go inside to make the call.
After a minute of the truck blocking the car, the car backs up into a driveway, the truck blocks him again! Then I heard some arguing.
I was like oh chit, I might be witnessing something really bad. I was only 90ft away, I wanted to walk over and get the Lic. # of the truck but I was too afraid.
So my point is..it really takes guts to approach a scary situation. I immediately thought about the TM/GZ case. What if one of them is carrying a gun and they don’t want any witnesses? LOL
Long story short.. The truck finally drove off and the guy in the car drove off too. When the LEO arrived we gave them descriptions of the vehicles. I think they caught the guy in the car but I hope they caught the guy in the truck because he seemed to be the aggressor.
Hmm..and all I was doing was walking my dog. LOL
Sorry for the long comment, I just wanted to share it with you.
JB,
Yes,
The kids in the street! : ) What do you think happened? Did the police have to waste their time to go and check on the kids in the street? What a joke.
And don’t give them my name! Please!
“i’m just the neighborhood watch captain, but I’d rather them not know” HOW STUPID!!
In the second one, is it his wife that says don’t go out there?
Always something wrong with someone, BUT George is the real problem.
Neighbors like that are such a pain!
You don’t have a neighborhood watchman? : )
You’re right! If you really think something is bad and could be dangerous, WHAT you do is jump right in.lol
What you and your friend did was the right thing. You sould be proud! lol
At least if they got the guy in the car, they POSSIBLY got the license number of the one
in the truck.
Another thing too, if both of them had a gun, they didn’t knee jerk and kill the other one.
Hey Loly,
You said:
Another thing too, if both of them had a gun, they didn’t knee jerk and kill the other one.
Exactly! Imagine if TM was really a 28yo black guy who happened to look young for his age AND he had a permit to carry a gun too? Oh Oh… Here comes Creepy Guy following him…oh oh, TM, the young looking black guy shoots Creepy Man as he approaches him. He is in fear for his life.
Now what??
The unknown Creepy Guy has been blatantly following him which he perceives as a threat, so Young Looking Black Guy runs to get away from the situation, he hides to see what Creepy Guy will do. Oh Oh..creepy guy is on foot now coming towards him. Young Looking Black Guy asks him “Do you have a problem?” Creepy Man says “No, I don’t have a problem” and at the same time he reaches for his cell phone, but Young Looking Black Guy notices he has a gun, so
Young looking Black guy shoots Creepy Man.
Who’s “Standing their Ground”?
The only difference is… TM is barely 17years old and his only weapon is his fist. Young Looking Black Guy has a gun.
Hello..Not really sure about the personals going on here..which was Kinda brought to
my attention. I will stay out of it:)I have not been here much in the last year , but a couple
drive bys..My life has been very challenging in this last year..and my time very consumed.
None of which I would like to talk about LOL..Nuff said.
havence in pursuing TM,
beyond contacting the authorities..put him where he is now. His actions after contacting the
authorities..which were not his actions to take..led to the death of another human being.
Regardless if that human being was black, white, purple, brown ,pink, or yellow..old or young..
male or female..had or did not have a record..GZ OVERSTEPPED THE BOUNDARIES.
He was NEGLIEGENT.
If i was walking in Sanford Fl..and ANYONE other than the police..and someone followed
me..I would fight for my life. And that is what TM did. I say other than the police..I have
to add that I would be skeptical even with them. LOL
Sanford Fl is a VERY high crime area..and it would not have taken GZ long to find
someone who looked like Obama’s presumable son..walking around the town.
night..there are so many people roaming and walking across the busy highway that
goes through Sanford.
I have not read or heard all..I just don’t have the time..HOWEVER, I have enough
documented knowledge thus far..not missing much..to make my opinion..based on.
I think a big error, was making this racial.I believe they jumped the gun there..However,
without it..it would have possibly become a racial misfortune as it may have not gotten
the attention deserved as TM was minority. And it happened in SANFORD, fl.
Regardless of GZ history, white as snow, or a long record..Same with TM…GZ
was the aggressor and TM had every right to fight for his life. GZ was only to REPORT
to authorities..NOT take action…Had he done that..TM would be alive.
The authorities, callously, figured another one bites the dust in Sanford. They are
nearly as corrupt as the city ..and empowered GZ..
Early on docs of surveillance notes and such released of GZ gav e me the creeps..
Especially towards lake mary where I spend time..It is not a crime area.
As far as the particulars of GZ or TM background..I can only say IMO
What really matters..is that GZ caused the death of another human being.He
had a vehicle and a weapon..TM had an ice tea and skittles. GZ could have
drove away..he already notified authorities..he did what he only needed to do.

Really,
And on the 911 tapes, how foolish does Zimmerman sound?
FIRST, this teenager looks suspicious, he’s on something, black white or Hispanic. He looks black!
It’s raining and he’s just standing there, oh now he’s staring at me,
now he’s running. oh shoot now I can’t find him.
“These assholes always get away”
Away from what, the rain?
Isn’t that the most ridiculous!
OR here’s a thought, George looked suspicious to Trayvon.
WHY?
Man driving along slowly while Trayvon is walking home, the man is following him, the man parks and stares at Trayvon, THEN the stupid man gets out of his car still following him on foot in the rain.
NOW that is what you call suspicious.
Nothing suspicious about Trayvon, he walking home, so it started raining.
Zimmerman was in a cozy dry place and decides to get out of it and chase the kid in the rain!
Ridiculous and turns out Zimmerman is the real danger to the neighborhood and society.
The only thing that Trayvon was guilty of was looking suspicious, “to George Zimmerman”
which has never made sense and killed for it.
I’ve seen many the same way, suspicious???
Not to me!
So, people are going to be murdered for looking suspicious?
AND that’s OK with the majority of people?
Hi Snoop!!
So be strong.
It’s so nice to see you again! I’m sorry to hear life hasn’t been kind to you as of late. I’ve had my share of mishaps too, so I know how it feels. Just be optimistic and hang in there, it’ll work out soon enough. I know you’re a tuff cookie.
As for this latest Florida debacle..lol, as you probably already suspect, I agree with you 100%!
I know..Sometimes good people with the best of intentions will make a mistake. Sometimes people who have hate in their heart look for trouble. I’m not sure which is the case with GZ, but he’s going to have to do some strong convincing with Judge Kenneth Lester. I think you hit the nail on the head when you used the word “negligent”. Exactly.
Snoop, I know you’re familiar with this part of Florida. Is your opinion that of the majority or is it 50/50 like it is on the blogs? I’m curious.
Thanks so much for dropping in.
I missed you. Come back anytime!
I’m curious too JB,
I was thinking it was more than 50% for Zimmerman.
And just taking polls on your blog, JB, it seems higher, don’t you think?
Anyway, the biggest reason that I think it became racial was because
of George Zimmerman saying he looks suspicious and had nothing to go
on but race.
He followed him along slowly in the truck before getting out and he knew.
The reasons for him looking suspicious was what then?
Walking, running in the rain?
He’s going to have to explain REALLY why he looked suspicious, especially after the
earlier 911 calls.
The Martins wanted answers and they went to the people they thought could help,
whoever they were.
Zimmerman wanted to talk and he called Hannidy, the prosecutors and Mark NeJame.
There are many cases that I’m sure that we never hear of that are just swept under the rug.
To me it makes no difference either.
A man killed an innocent kid for no reason and almost got by without having to answer
WHY?
If we want justice for anyone this happens to we have to fight for it.
It could be us one day OR someone we love.
Hi JB..Lolypop..Well, at one time the majority was in favor of TM. Then leaned
toward GZ as photos of his injuries were minimized..then seem maximized as
true injuries. As well as the VICTIM TM’s name was muddied with anything that
could be dug up. But now that GZ has created more problems with the $$ issue..
his credibility has taken a plunge. Since it has become a racial factor, I also
believe that it depends on who you’re talking to..Very sad, but true!
However, I feel it is probably 50-50 central Fl , overall..but in Sanford area,,
definatley 80-20 for TM. Also I think it varies with new information released.m
Yes, Lolypop..if the Martin’s had not made it totally racial..and looked for help..
it would have been more of a vacuum than a broom. TM would have been a
statistic. You see how it was handled with the PD. Which was a joke! I wasn’t
even aware of Stand Your Ground..until this. Probably a good thing LOL
I can think of some stand your ground issues i would have liked to take LOLOL
But I don’t think it should have had to be about race..a “person” died because
GZ chose to use a power of authority that was not his to use. When the authorities
told him you need not follow..He should not have.His actions were that of a
wanna be PD. Im against volunteer Citizen Patrol ..Neighborhood WANNA BES..
For most of them are not really just looking..but wanting the power and authority
of a PD. We have enough problems with the PD misusing authority!
If you remember JB ..I was really obsessed
with Casey Anthony referencing that Caylee was with a babysitter in Sanford.
I found it so peculiar, with the distance from her home..the lack of any interests
in the area..the crime..poverty..
I guess what I said about the jumping the gun on the race card..was I feel
race is not the issue. Negligence is. I felt too much emphasis was placed
on race..made it all about race..which takes emphasis off other issues with GZ.
That GZ was all about power..that GZ would be capable of overstepping
boundaries with ANY color , age, gender..Which is what I believe and gives
a much broader view of GZ..vs..he is predjudice. Which I feel would make
him more accountable for his actions..than making it all about race.
Well, I know that was confusing..I woke up and laptop on the page..read
your comments..and 1/2 a sleep comment follows.LOL

race is not the issue. Negligence is. I felt too much emphasis was placed
on race..made it all about race..which takes emphasis off other issues with GZ.
That GZ was all about power..that GZ would be capable of overstepping
boundaries with ANY color , age, gender..Which is what I believe and gives
a much broader view of GZ..vs..he is predjudice. Which I feel would make
him more accountable for his actions..than making it all about race.
Well, I know that was confusing..I woke up and laptop on the page..read
your comments..and 1/2 a sleep comment follows.LOL
NEVER stop fighting for justice!
Thanks Snoop,
It helps to discuss the things we see different and alike. I really didn’t want to think it was about race, but the comments that Zimmerman made on the other 911 calls seemed to be, plus he always said they look suspcious or the comment he made about these assholes getting away.
I don’t understand “getting away” who then is he talking about?
When that’s all that he could say was that he looked suspicious, when it was probably George that was the one looking suspicious IMO. I’ve always said if it were two people no matter the race and this was pulled by someone like George, it didn’t matter. I think if it became about race because the Martins went to the public for help. if we were in their place, who would we have gone to?
There wasn’t anything done about their son. Just accept their word.
Like you said Never Stop Fighting For Justice!
And the protest wasn’t all one race. There were different races that felt that Zimmerman should have at least been arrested. You can never have your own trial and say well, I did it in self defense or like you said, you didn’t know about the Stand Your Ground law until you heard about this.
I hadn’t either.
NOW, after the fact, I think I read there are 23 states that have it.
OF course Texas being one.So, I didn’t know it either. We better find out
what we don’t know.lol
I don’t know why there is such a law, since we’ve always had self defense.
Snoop, I’m glad to see you too and like JB said sorry for any troubles in your life.
Whatever they are, I hope it’s all better soon.
Thanks for the comments!
Hi Snoop
Word around town is… we’ll have a doc dump on Thursday..Woo Hoooo!
Loly, you know how we noticed that GZ always started his statements with, “there’s been a lot of break-ins..yada, yada, yada…” ???
Well I read an article that the reason he does that is to establish probable cause. He may have learned this when he applied for a license to carry a weapon.
I’m going to see if I can hunt down a copy of the application to legally carry a gun. Maybe that’ll explain why Judge Lester said that GZ manipulated the system. ??

SPD totally messed up. There was no reason for NOT running blood test on Zimmerman the night of the shooting!!
Good Morning!
JB,
Very interesting, in trial WHAT can he possibly say. What reason can the SPD
possibly give for not getting a blood test that night.
Now, IMO that is why he didn’t go to the hospital that night. They would have had
to test his blood.
Zimmerman really DID almost get away with murder, without having to say a word.
You know?
That really pisses me off.
And the majority are angry at Trayvon and his parents and anyone else
speaking up for justice for him.
What parent wouldn’t be doing what Trayvon’s parents are doing?
If the SPD would have done what they should have that night and IF
Zimmerman had not done what he did, Zimmermam would be just fine.
Like a judge told a girl that killed another during road rage after sentecing her,
YOU DID THis to YOURSELF!
That’s Zimmerman and someone is guilty of trying to cover it up.
They should have listened to Serino!
Amen Sister Lolypop!!
ITA! By the way, ITA means “I totally agree” LOL
It’s these actions like NOT going to the hospital that Judge Lester sees. He sees right through GEORGE ZIMMERMAN and so do you and I.
GZ KNEW they would do blood work. GZ might be stupid in his everyday life but when it comes to manipulating the law, he’s Einstein!
Remember..he studies Criminal Law. hmmm.. ah huh.
BTW, I think its insane that so many people are spending so much time and MONEY making excuses for this guy. GZ’s own lawyer doesn’t seem to have much faith in him either.
I love what that judge said.. “YOU DID IT YOURSELF” Ha! I bet GZ has heard that before. LOL
I promise you, if this would have happened to ANY of GZ’s supporters they would have done WHATEVER it took to get answers. Nobody walks away when their child has been murdered, unless they just don’t give a damn. Trayvon Martin’s parents loved their son.
Off-topic;
I’m into house cleaning this week. I’m preparing to paint my bedroom this weekend. I’m one of those weird people that loves to paint. LOL
I’ll be back later.
You’ve got that right AND we would have been 100% behind them.
My daughter hardly get’s into these kind of things but listening to the screams and
hearing his Dad and other say it’s Zimmerman, that’s when she becomes a Loly. LOL
WOW!! JB, that is weird.
I love fresh paint, but I like to see some weird person do it. : )
Have fun!
I’m sure you will.
Have a little wine with your entertainment! : )

The latest from FOX news, a girl has come forward that said GZ sexually abused her 10 yrs ago
IDK if you all realize this or not but TM’s parents didn’t start the movement to prosecute GZ. Occupy Wall Street lead the fight to make this go pubic. TM’s friends (thru twitter) contacted OWS & they had the hoodie march (in NTC) before Jackson & Sharpton got involved in Sanford. It was those young people that invited TM’s parents to NY to speak at the protest for TM. I watched it online. A high school kid, unarmed, & shot dead, with no arrest, is what got them asking questions & protesting.
Lisa,
I didn’t think that it has anything to do with Trayvon’s murder
and she reported it on FOX?
She goes to FOX, his Dad interviews on FOX, and George called FOX.
If this was going to hurt Zimmerman in anyway or distract, she would call FOX!
FOX is 100% behind Zimmerman.
I kind of think it’s a distraction from what happened in Trayvon’s
trial, don’t you?
loly….. Huh? Fox reported it on the news that GZ has been question by the police about it.
Trayvon’s trial what are you talking about he’s dead?
Hi Lisa,
Wow! I really didn’t know it was Occupy Wall Street who first mentioned this case? Hmm..That’s good to know. Snoop and I were trying to remember when we first learned about the TM case to compare it to the dates GZ decided to buy more firearms. Trying to figure out why he would do that. This is really interesting. Thanks for the information Lisa. See you soon.

Safe site
Scroll down to the comments of the above article. Very insightful
Lisa,
Sorry, I mean Zimmerman’s trial!! : )
I thought if she went to FOX, that wouldn’t be good for her.
Because George, and his Dad both have been on there and Sean Hannidy
had spoken with George.
Who is interviewing his cousin. Is it the LE?
Thanks for the link. I was one of those wrong headed ones. lol
NOT that I didn’t believe her, just thought it may not have anything to do with Trayvon, but I see the connection now.
Told you I liked to learn. : )
Hi Lisa,
Thank you for the link. I just want you to know you are welcome to join discussion on this thread.

Thanks Lisa,
That will give me something to check out in the morning!
Looks like a lot of comments.
Did you see the video that Xena put up showing the police take down?
When you see that and listen to Trayvon’s crying, it sure sounds like what George would
do. Dang, I wish he would have kept his nose to himself and went on to Target!
Well Good night everyone,
See you tomorrow! : )
hello JB
awesome article, just wanted to swing in and say hello to you all, be back after i catch up on readings here as i have been laid up and haven’t been reading a thing lol kk have a super day and wish you all a super one too!!
Hi Spidey! Thanks for stopping in.
Sorry to hear you’re not up to par as of late. Catch up when you can or Jump Right in..lol You’re always welcome.
You have a Super day too!
Hmm..I’m going to go on a rant tonight.
I could not help myself tonight. I just had to click back and forth to the “Sean” Hannity” show to hear America’s #1 Liar “jorge”ZIMMERMAN spew his sorry ass tale of woe for the 91st time. I was literally getting ill just from the sound of his voice and his effing retelling the story. Yes JORGE I get it! OK.. but face it Dude, YOU CAN MOVE IF YOU DON’T like the neighborhood. LETS FACE IT JORGE, YOU ARE A “RENTER”.
As he sat there in between “SEAN” and “MARK”, The Irish as IF he fits in. GMAFB!
Jorge?? Do you think for one second if Seanie Boy or Mark saw YOU driving in their ELITE neighborhoods, with you driving some economy SUV, do you NOT REALIZE — it would BE YOU who would look SUSPICIOUS?? Buwahahahahaha!!
No JORGE, you wouldn’t look suspicious in my neighborhood. Oh no, not in my culturally diverse city of New Orleans but lets be real, put your fat half breed ass in the middle of America, in my BIL’s midwestern town of 15,000 population and let you drive off the farm sporting your “SKIN HEAD” and cheap red jacket heading out to the Walmart to buy some bologna and American cheese all by yourself. Lets just say Jorge, we’d get worried about you if you weren’t back in an hour and have to come a looking for you. You being so suspicious looking and all in this all white town where Italians like myself are profiled I’d think somebody might confuse you with the Latin Kings.
For me to ever want to listen to a word you say, you’d have to fess up to your stupidity and your stupid mistake and make a heartfelt apology to that young man’s family. If you can nut up to that, you have no business carrying a firearm. The NRA is ashamed of you because its because you and people like you that Americans fear gun ownership.
You’re a coward Jorge. Admit it, do your time and get it over with because frankly I am tired of hearing it.
Amen Gene! You’re a good neighbor. I agree 100% and I know exactly where you’re coming from. He’s a fool.
Thanks for your comment.
WOW!!!
Isn’t that the truth Gene!!!
Give us all a effing break, George!!! You have no regrets , it was Gods plan???? Is he kidding me, the why even say you’re sorry the Martins lost their son, tell God to apologize then.
How totally wrong!! It’s been every body’s fault but George’s and NOW he say’s it was God’s plan??
What happened to though shalt not kill? Oh, guess it’s ok if God wanted you to kill someone.
How totally stupid, ignorant, cold hearted can anyone be?
I think this is about the caziest thing I’ve ever seen? What is wrong with O’Mara. The judge told him
not to do something in court, and he goes on national TV and does just that.
He lied again and again.
I hope he spins the rest of his life in prison. How many times is someone going to do somethig in God’s name and get by with it.
I’m like Xena, no religion, but spiritual in my own way and at least have a conscience .
BS!! him screaming??? When is he going to stop lying about that?
I feel like you Gene!! Wat’s the idiot and lawyer trying to do piss off everybody and O’Mara
thought this was a good idea? REALLY
How stupid can stupid get?
You can tell he’s gotten by with everything in his life. I hope there’s a plan for justice and him in prison for the rest of his life. He’s a danger to society!
(Doing the cabbage patch dance) Go Gene, Go Gene, Go Gene!!!
