Zimmerman Judge Could Increase Bond in Trayvon Martin Shooting

The lawyer for the man now formally charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Florida has spoken out about his new website and the possibility that the judge could increase George Zimmerman’s bond.

FOX News Radio’s Eben Brown reports from Miami:

Audio clip:

Mark O’Mara says defending George Zimmerman – who claims he shot unarmed teen Trayvon Martin in self-defense in his neighborhood in an Orlando suburb – is a bit difficult, logistically.

(O’Mara) “There’s a certain amount of cloak and dagger to it.”

He hasn’t seen Zimmerman since he made bail, and meets with Zimmerman’s family in secret.

(O’Mara) “My fear is the extreme people, the ones who hear the message and take it too far, could overreact.”

O’Mara is also managing money donated to Zimmerman’s defense, money that could prompt a judge to raise the bond amount.

    George ZImmerman is STILL trying to avoid laying down in the bed that he made for himself! LIe after lie, he plays the system – judge and laws, like a little compulsive lying child caught in a web of lies….he continues to lie, hoping that if he tells enough lies the world will believe them. Shame on George, shame on his attorney for lying for him (O'Mara whom should be disbarred) and shame on George's family for crating this monster who seems to truly believe that he is above the reach of the law. When does it end??
