Tallahassee, FL – Local attorney Benjamin Crump represents the family of Trayvon Martin, the 17 year old who George Zimmerman admits to killing calling it self-defense.
George Zimmerman got to walk out of the John E Polk Correctional Facility in Sanford Florida.
He got into a car and drove away a free man after securing enough money to satisfy a 150,000 dollar bond set Friday
Attorney Benjamin Crump,Parks and Crump Attorney’s At Law, says he was not happy about the latest development in the case.
Crump says, “It is with a heavy heart that Trayvon’s parents had to watch his killer get released from jail. They would rather he remain in jail until the conclusion of the criminal proceedings. However they hope that his freedom is temporary because the pain he caused their family is permanent.”
During his bond hearing Friday Zimmerman who says he shot 17 year old Trayvon Martin is self defense, apoligized to the Martin family saying “I am sorry for the loss of your son.”
Trayvon’s parents don’t think the apology came from his heart.
Crump says, “His apology and testimony seemed insincere. Especially when his lawyer called the day before the bond hearing asking for a private meeting to apologize. We thought that was completely inappropriate.”
It seems only his family and his legal team know where Zimmerman is hiding out. His attorney Mark O’mara says Zimmerman has received death threats.
Many attorneys believe during the trail the prosecution will have an uphill battle getting Zimmerman convicted on the second degree murder charge he faces.
Attorney Randy Giddins,from the law firm Burns and Giddins, says,”The only witness is the person who pulled the trigger. Mr. Zimmerman is the only testimony so there is no real direct evidence as far as witness statements are concerned that can show what happened.”
Crump was hoping that Zimmerman would stay behind bars until his trial began.

I want to say that the gashes on Zimmerman’s head is not at all a proof that Zimmerman is innocent!
I am convinced and i will never change my mind that rather it is Trayvon Martin ,who in a desperate attempt to save his life had to fight back!
He may have pounded Zimmerman’s head to the concrete in order to knock him out so he can escape Zimmerman!
George Zimmerman followed Trayvon when told not to by the police on his 9/11 call!
He then jumped out of his car with a gun and chased Trayvon while pointing the gun at him! Then he forced him to the ground that is when Trayvon decided to fight back by rolling him over and then Zimmerman shot him!
All what Trayvon Martin had was an Arizona ice tea and a bag of skittles! Another factor to confirm my claim would be the apology Zimmerman gave! Saying <>!
That sounds like <>!
Trayvon had no prior motives except going to the store to buy an Arizona ice tea and a bag of skittles for his brother!
It is clear George Zimmerman is a cold blooded murderer!I am surprised he was not along with 2nd degree murder,charged for stalking and assault with a deadly weapon!
I want to see justice served!George Zimmerman did the crime he must serve the time!
