Zimmerman created a website to raise money for his legal fees. His attorney claims he just found out yesterday. The prosecution will ask to raise the bond. His legal defense could cost 500k-1 million.
The judge will be told tomorrow about this and I don't think the judge will be happy about the dishonest fact that his defense and family told the judge he had no money.
Can Zimmerman be trusted after this lie? He allowed his own family to testify saying he has no money. His whole story should be questioned.

If the money was set aside and to be used for the legal defense, then he wouldnt have that money, its not his. The balance wouldnt be his until AFTER the case is resolved and all legal fees are paid.
That shows how people really feel about the evidence and proof will set him free...or not, but I'm all in favor of justice for both sides and not in favor of the stupid Sharpton and Jesse Jackson character assassination of Zimmerman in the media.
His bail doesn't matter, he's not a flight risk. He could have run this whole time and didn't. He has an ankle bracelet on, he isn't going anywhere. He is still likely insolvent due to legal fees.

His lawyer assumed that he should work pro bono because Zimmerman and his family testified that he had no money for a legal defense. If the judge had known, he had this money set aside, of course the judge is going to be very upset. His website has been shut down. He needs to answer tomorrow in front of the judge to why he lied and allow his family to lie for him. Instead his lawyer will face the music unless they recall Zimmerman back and lock him up. His credibility will be questioned all the way at this point.

I don't think so. At most, his defense shouldn't cost more than 100k (and that's with trial).
In any event, if his defense cost ends up being 500k-1 million, he'd be better off putting the money in someone elses name, pleading guilty manslaughter, and doing like 7 years in prison.

O'Mara is Zimmerman's lawyer:
"O'Mara, who said he charges $400 per hour for family law cases, estimated Zimmerman's defense costs could reach $1 million. "You can really go through a lot of money on a case like this, with the intensity of it," he said." Donations pour in to Trayvon Martin's killer - CNN.com
O'Mara said his defense of GZ could be as high as 1 mil... snip from CNN"O'Mara, who said he charges $400 per hour for family law cases, estimated Zimmerman's defense costs could reach $1 million. "You can really go through a lot of money on a case like this, with the intensity of it," he said"
Why is GZ's attorney telling Anderson Cooper? His first obligation is to his client and then the judge, why is he running his mouth!
My first impression of his attorney was his seemingly lack of confidence in his client, I let up once I watched the hearing, but now it would seem that he is talking too much to the media...this revelation should have been saved for tomorrow's hearing in front of the judge, not in front of the camera...
GZ has a lot of explaining to do if his paypal account shows that the money was in there before he went to jail...

I say let it all play out in court, what happens will happen. But i think most of us know, if things are not the way some people think it should be. there might be hell to pay.
If for some reason, beyond us knowing yet, the information comes out that is different then what some feel it should be, don't think it is going to be pretty.

He had no money, created a website and after the public saw he was being railroaded they donated lots of gifts.
He's not running away and is ammasing a war chest for the cost of the trial. Good for him, what is the problem?
