Zimmerman Released From Jail With Help of Donations to His Defense Fund

Just yesterday, George Zimmerman’s attorney, Mark O’Mara, began soliciting donations for his client’s bond because he said Zimmerman couldn’t afford the one million dollar bond the judge had set.

Well, all the begging for bond money must’ve worked because today, Zimmerman was released from jail.

O’Mara managed to pull together the money and collateral needed for George Zimmerman’s bond, partly because Zimmerman has received an additional $20,000 in donations from donors since the bail was set yesterday.

Zimmerman had already collected $211,000, so the $20,000 is in addition to that.

Trayvon Martin’s parents are expected to hold a news conference today in New Orleans with  Rev. Al Sharpton and their attorneys to react to the judge’s decision on Zimmerman’s bond.

    The evidence is what will decide the verdict… as for bail, everyone is entitles to raise it anyway they can… no laws were broken by asking for donations and he is entitled to get out…. anyone here who says they wouldn’t do the same is a lying hypocrite

    O’Mara is just as ruthless as zimmerman is. I hope all the money in the world doesn’t help zimmerman walk free. O’Mara is playing the race card and getting away with it. One thing about racist people, they all stick together. If their son was murdered, they would not be donating money. He murdered someone, let george pay the price and do the the time.

    Casey Anthony,OJ Simpson, Robert Blake? You are fooling yourself or delusional if you think this New Jim Crow Criminal Justice system is going to convict a non-black person or anyone with money for killing a young Black Male.
