George Zimmerman's Bond Revoked
 
George Zimmerman and his wife lied to the court about their finances, claiming they had to borrow the bond money from his parents and grandparents all the while collecting over $200,000 on his website. Also, unknown to the court, Zimmerman had two passports. He was ordered to surrender himself to jail within 48 hours. It's unknown whether he will stay in jail until the trial. So much for George Zimmerman's credibility.

Told you so.

Not sure this really destroys his credibility as to what happened the night he shot Trayvon Martin. It should not even color it all that much as to what happened that night.

Let's wait and see what the evidence shows about that night. Remember all the media against George Zimmerman before he had his present lawyer. That should be entered into the credibility issue because of all the stress this put on Zimmerman and his wife.

I don't think George Zimmerman can blame stress for his failure to report $200,000 in assets and a second passport. It seems that Zimmerman and his wife were overheard talking in code, and I can only guess it was maybe about using that passport and cash. Perhaps the newspaper tomorrow will have more about what transpired today. In any event, he will be returning to jail on Sunday for an indeterminate time.

The sad thing is we will have to deal with every little detail or change for the next 1-2 years before the trial even begins. I am tired of it already.

All I am saying is that he may have told the truth about what happened when he shot Trayvon Martin and then lied about the amount of money he had because of the very harsh media re-action he received before he obtained legal representation. He did have a bounty on his head.

Let's wait and see what the evidence shows.

George Zimmerman
 
You can't destroy credibility when you have no credibility to begin with-I agree with Bogie Shooter.We'll be hearing about this non-stop for years probably.

paulandjean 06-02-2012 05:19 AM

Enough of this bounty on his head. Somebody heard that somebody said that there is a boundy on his head.Right from the get-go you know George Zimmerman story did not add up.

That is not a rumor. The New Black Panther Party did put on bounty on Zimmerman's head. New Black Panther Party Offers $10K Bounty For George Zimmerman : The Two-Way : NPR

As far as the murder of Trayvon Martin is concerned, though, all we should be interested in is what happened in those minutes up to, during, and after Mr. Martin was killed by George Zimmerman: How close was the gun to Martin? What was the angle of trajectory into Martin's body? Presence of powder burns on Zimmerman's shirt? Lighting where Martin was shot? Grass or other stains on both men's clothing? Witness statements? Extent of injuries to George Zimmerman's head and hands? Injuries other than gunshot to Trayvon Martin? I am probably missing something as much of the evidence in this case is still hidden. It also sounds like the investigation into what happened in these minutes was very shoddy.

I do hope that George Zimmerman can get a fair trial.
 
George Zimmerman Credibility May Be Issue In Trayvon Martin Case

I know that George Zimmerman's getting a fair trial will be a difficult prospect now with his credibility being in question.

As I've said before, if Casey Anthony, the most hated woman in America, could get a fair trial, there is no reason George Zimmerman can't get a fair trial. Most people have lives and are not paying that much attention to this case. They can move the trial, if needed, or more likely import a jury from another jurisdiction, like they did in the Anthony trial. If he remains behind bars, his defense will probably move for a speedy trial

Casey Anthony did get a fair trial, I agree. This Zimmerman case though unfortunately has an election year spin with many Democrats taking the side of Trayvon Martin and many Republicans coming down on the side of George Zimmerman. Not all one either side though. I am very much a liberal Democrat; but, am waiting on the evidence before really making up my mind. There's also the race issue even though Zimmerman is hispanic.

This is a much more complicated case than the Casey Anthony one. I had also thought that Casey Anthony killed her child before hearing all the evidence in that case.

Ok , I know it sounds crazy...... Has anyone mentioned that Zimmerman may have inflicted his own injuries upon himself. I'm sur e it doesn't happen that often. If your from MA. You might remember the Stewart case. Well off Guy shot and killed his pregnant wife. Then proceeded to shoot himself in the stomach. Then... Called the police from his cellphone in the car and said a black guy did it. Just makes Ya think.

Wow, is that the best idea? A real stretch in my opinion.

paulandjean 06-03-2012 06:26 AM

Because its a election year. Boy I think that I heard then all. This makes no sense.
