George Zimmerman Returns to Sanford, FL [In Police Custody]
George Zimmerman Legal Case ^ | 6/3/12

Posted on 06/03/2012 12:13:43 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

George Zimmerman has returned to Central Florida, arriving late Saturday evening. On Friday, June 1, the court revoked Mr. Zimmerman's bond, ordering him to return to custody within 48 hours. The defense team has coordinated with the Sanford Police Department to ensure Mr. Zimmerman's security when he turns himself in before today's 2:30 PM deadline.

While out on bond, Mr. Zimmerman has been living in a secure, undisclosed location as there are significant threats against his life.

Mr. Zimmerman's lawyers will request a new bond hearing where they can address the court's concerns regarding the representation of funds available at the time of the original hearing on April 20. The defense team hopes that Mr. Zimmerman's voluntary surrender to Sanford police will help demonstrate to the court that he is not a flight risk. Furthermore, the vast majority of the funds in question are in an independently managed trust, and neither Mr. Zimmerman or his attorneys have direct access to the money.

On May 8, Mr. Zimmerman waived his right to a speedy trial to allow the defense team the time needed to prepare for trial. It is anticipated, though not certain, that the case will not be ready for trial until some time into 2013, and the next bond hearing will determine whether Mr. Zimmerman will wait those many months in jail or not.

The big signs saying that all calls are recorded next to the phones in jails, and the even bigger signs on the doors of visitation rooms are usually enough to tip most people off.

I'm angry that the judge is sooooooo stupid that he doesn't see that the circumstance is making Zimmerman do things he wouldn't ordinarily do.

Damn....the lynch mob just keeps feeding the fire...

The media keeps showing the photo of Trayvon when he was a round-faced cherub of fourteen years old, sans gold teeth and in your face attitude. Also, they keep on showing the “fat” photo of Zimmerman before he lost a huge amount of weight.

There may come a time when a person has to say “sayonara” to the U.S. and tell the “Trayvons” (Obama’s sons) they’ll just have to fish or cut bait as far as the socialist Democrat freebies go. . and then where are they gonna get all the “wealth” to “spread around”?

"The lynch mob against a man defending himself from a thug continues to celebrate."

The lynch mob against white men defending themselves from black thugs continues to celebrate.

I might be wrong but I thought the calls were from jail and all of those are monitored.

How many citizens in Florida and those states that have ‘stand your ground’ and self-defense laws, are going to think twice before firing, AND DIE as a result of hesitation and being scared of becoming the next Zimmerman ???

The libs are using this case in an attempt to STOP all citizen self-protection legislation. Maybe even reverse the progress that has been made in recent years.

How can someone contribute to Mr. Zimmerman’s legal defense without using Paypal?

Sorry, I don't know. Maybe look up the name of his lawyers and call them directly.

Poor guy...

Sorry to hear he doesn’t have access to it.

Don't be sorry. If he had access to it, the judge would be demanding he surrender it as bail so he won't be able to afford to defend himself. This is what the lynch mobs want: No defense for George Zimmerman.

He may be wearing body armor under his shirt. If there's access for a photographer to shoot a picture, no telling what some lynch-mob liberal might try.

Except that the judge realized that argument was bogus because his attorney O’Mara was in possession of that second passport.

The judge’s order for GZ to return was based on the monetary issue, he dismissed the passport issue after O’Mara explained the truth.

GZ is getting the shaft.

Its all in the autopsy and medical reports and witness statements. Trayvon's bloody knuckles and the injuries to Zimmerman's head tell us who the thug was.
