The judge has it in for GZ. The innocent until proven guilty George cannot afford such a high bond. So for now he has to stay in jail.

Bullcrap.

The judge noted in his ruling that Zimmerman even lied to his attorney by suggesting he could not pay for his defense.

Lester, is that the same attorney who said that his fees were likely to reach a million dollars??? So his suggestion was not a lie but was right on, wasn't it???

[Uncle Chip]

Although Judge Lester said he suspected Zimmerman was going to flee, the state did not prove its argument that Zimmerman should have no bond. The judge made his decision based on prior case law in which bond terms were violated.

That's what the hearing was all about -- whether GZ had done anything while out on release or even in the bond hearing to justify bond revocation. If the state did not prove it, then the revocation of bond on June 1st was wrong.

If the state's argument failed for the hearing on the 29th, then it fails for the 1st of June as well. That means that the terms of the April 20th bond should be reinstated, not reinvented. Judge Lester needs to read his own order and plug his brain into it. He has reached a faulty conclusion.

Whatever happened to the cretins who put bounties out?

Judge the state by who they are judging.

Um, Zimmerman made bail. Apparently this judge didn’t get the latest update on the defense fund: he only made Zimmerman give up a bit less than half of it. The goal was probably to bankrupt him so he couldn’t afford expert counsel. Fail...
