Has a major legal firm yet taken up Mr. Zimmerman’s defense? I remember his first attorneys quitting, in a press conference, leaking information they shouldn’t have.
Whoever it is, has been described by other freepers as competent. Maybe even a public defender or (in low density populated areas) an attorney reimbursed by the state. Some PDs are sharp if green; the office is a useful beginning career step for new law graduates who intend to progress to bigger and better things in private practice.
This is all going to end up with the Sanford police saying, “WE TOLD YOU SO.”
A guy from the area named Mark O’Mara is doing is somewhat pro bono.
