The money was going into Zimmerman’s account and was transferred BY THE WIFE in accordance with George’s instructions. Sorry, folks, but unless they have fabricated the phone calls used in support of this motion, it’s pretty clear that both George and wife did not come clean about these funds. I don’t see how any objective person could read that motion and conclude otherwise. The Zimmermans can’t claim they didn’t think the funds were available to pay bail since they explicitly discussed using the funds to do exactly that!

I think they didn’t know that this would be considered their money or they would have set up a separate fund, which obviously they didn’t have the smarts to do. People, which I’m sure includes a number of Freepers, just wanted to help them and sent them money.
It would be logical for them to discuss using it to pay the bail, since even the bail that was set would have been beyond them.
These are simple people of very modest means who suddenly got thrust into the political hotseat.
I'm not going to be lectured about the "Just Us" system that let Bill Clinton, Charlie Rangel and Jon Corzine walk.
Oh, and don't forget the John Edwards kabuki show...
