Meanwhile, Zimmerman’s father delivered a letter to the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday saying the way his son is being depicted in the media is cruel and misleading. He also says his son has received death threats and moved out of his home. George Zimmerman is Hispanic and grew up in a multiracial family, the statement says.

“He would be the last to discriminate for any reason whatsoever ...,” the letter says. “The media portrayal of George as a racist could not be further from the truth.”

The letter Zimmerman’s father gave the Sentinel says George Zimmerman didn’t get out of the SUV to confront Martin.

“At no time did George follow or confront Mr. Martin. When the true details of the event became public, and I hope that will be soon, everyone should be outraged by the treatment of George Zimmerman in the media,” the letter said. — (AP)

Almost forgot that one, but I did know that somewhere people were denying that George got out of the van ~ so when the tapes came out George had to 'splain getting out of the van ~ which might explain why the additional police report.

There are still people coming across that article and leaping to the conclusion George really couldn't be guilty of firing a gun at Martin.

This must be the event where the cops say George's statement didn't quite jibe with the recordings ~ a trivial issue actually.
