Correct me if my recall is faulty... Zimmerman did not testify at either bail hearing, did he?

If he did not, how can he be prosecuted for perjury? Did he sign a sworn statement that he did not know how much money was in the account? Or did he testify? I just can’t remember...

Nope. The only thing he did do at the first bailbond hearing is take the stand and apologize to the Martins for shooting their son in self-defense. The state seized upon that as a confession as did the judge though they keep trying to dismiss the second half of that -- that he did so in self defense. He left me no other choice.

As far as I know he signed no sworn statement of what was in his account. If he had you can bet that it would be in the state's paper releases. But there is no such document.

But none of that seems to matter to Lester who gave the prosecution the green light today to charge him with being a potted plant when Shelly testified or misrepresenting his financial status. And when they do so, even after paying out $100,000 to the bailbondsman, he will again revoke bond.
