| Weaver95 Zimmerman is an idiot. if he STFU and listened to his lawyer(s) he'd probably stand a good chance of beating these charges. |

The judge was visibly annoyed with being lied to and said he wants Zimmerman back in court to explain himself. Revoking the bond is just his way of letting Zimmerman know just how seriously he screwed up. When it's all said and done in a few days, Zimmerman will walk out of court a free man. Probably with a serious ass chewing and a higher bond. |

| Runs_With_Scissors_ Prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda told the judge today that "this court was led to believe that they didn't have a single penny" at the earlier bond hearing. Zimmerman's wife "flat out lied to this court," de la Rionda said. Lester agreed, revoking Zimmerman's bond. He must turn himself in, the judge said. Hmmm... Will his wife be facing perjury or obstruction charges? |

Oh and before somebody mentions it, the judge also ruled that the second passport was a non-issue and wrote it off as being a case of finding a previously lost document after requesting a replacement. |

The judge pretty much said so when he ruled the second passport irrelevant. |

....unless you're a very rich and highly-connected person with a first-class lawyer. If you are neither, you're farked. |

| PsyLord So that means that the Florida taxpayers are footing his food and lodge? Just up his bail/put him under house arrest... jeez. |

The judge was not happy that Zimmerman didn't speak up when his wife said they had no money. He was not happy being lied to about the PayPal account that had more than $155,000 at the time of the bond hearing. It's well documented they lied. They didn't make a mistake - they lied. |

Oh good! Another George Zimmerman thread. |

| vpb It is interesting how this has become a proxy for people's opinions on race, politics and guns. No one really knows what happened, and it maybe that we never will. |

| Thunderpipes
Using bond as punishment, ya, he will get a fair trial. Not what it is for, at all. Liberal justice! Can't wait for a crazy conservative judge to do this and see how you guys like it. |

If the judge does decide to be that harsh (or gets leaned on by the DA), I wouldn't be surprised if Zimmerman exercised his right to a speedy trial. Which is why it's unlikely that they'll throw him in lockup, this case is too politically charged right now, any verdict would have a big impact in November, and no one wants to deal with that. |

Im guessing talking in code to his wife about a supposedly lost passport stashed in a safe box didn't help things. |

Well, according to his attorney, who wants statements Zimmerman made to the police that were "inconsistent with physical evidence and witness testimony" struck, I dunno, man. |

Weaver95: Zimmerman is an idiot. if he STFU and listened to his lawyer(s) he'd probably stand a good chance of beating these charges. True. Instead he's listening to the chest thumping NRA Teabaggers who don't understand that the judicial system encompasses processes as well as laws. |

All we know is the judge wants him in court to explain why he didn't disclose the money he had collected online. Yep. And probably when he found out about the amount of $ that had been collected (I doubt he was getting hourly updates while awaiting his bail hearing, but you have to assume that someone told him). The one thing he did right was to tell his lawyer and have him take control of the account (if previous news reports are correct). The question I have is why did it take this long for the judge to decide to call for a hearing on it (IIRC, it was originally considered to be an honest mistake and since it was disclosed as soon as it was ID'ed by his attorney, a relative non-issue... what changed?)? That said, I'd definitely be having words with the wife if she knew of it during the hearing (which is what it sounds like). |

| Satanic_Hamster Give it up, trolls. Zimmerman isn't going to flea the country with all the donated money and take you with him to have gay troll account sex on a tropical island. However, the judge may be concerned that Zimmerman might take his WIFE to a tropical island with that chunk of change. |

I was gonna do some trolling in here, but my heart is just not into this George Zimmerman thing. He's out. The shelf life expired sometime in late April. He'll probably be big in Japan in a few years. Maybe Germany. I feel bad for the people that aren't going to get those awesome race riots this summer. I know some of you guys are really hoping for a little excitement. |
