If any charges are filed from here out, it should be against the media agencies who have inflamed and fabricated the story.

George Zimmerman’s Lawyers In Intense Exchange With Piers Morgan: ‘The Media Has Destroyed Him’

Craig Sonner, the elusive lawyer for Trayvon Martin killer George Zimmerman who tricked Lawrence O’Donnell into cross-examining a chair, emerged from media hiding tonight to talk to Piers Morgan, tonight accompanied by fellow attorney Hal Uhrig. The two lawyers appeared to on the defensive, arguing that Zimmerman legally carried his weapon and killed in self-defense, and ultimately accusing Morgan of “litigating the case in public” and refusing to answer questions.

“He’s hiding out from people who are trying to kill him,” Sonner told Morgan about his client, arguing that the police “don’t always make an arrest right away” and the only reason the courts have yet to dispense justice is “because not all of the facts of that night have come out.” Sonner continued to arguing that “there’s been no justice for George Zimmerman,” as he has been “tried and convicted in the court of public opinion based on facts that are not even true.” Sonner argued as a “fact” that Zimmerman was “beaten on the ground” before shooting.

“That’s not actually a fact,” Morgan countered, “that’s a supposition based on what George Zimmerman has told you.” Sonner didn’t disagree, only adding, “that’s why I’m telling everyone to wait.” “It’s been open season on destroying this man’s credibility,” Sonner replied, arguing that “the media has absolutely destroyed him unfairly” and accusing Morgan of being part of that unfair attack. Uhrig joined in the attack against Morgan, calling Morgan’s argument that it would be illegal for him to carry a concealed weapon to go to the store a lie. “He’s legally entitled to defend himself,” Uhrig argued, resulting in a back and forth where Morgan insisted that neighborhood watch leaders were not supposed to walk around with 9mm weapons and Uhrig making the now typical and tiresome “this is not the UK”-style retort claiming Morgan didn’t know what he was talking about.

Morgan had to take a few moments to actually tell the attorneys “I’m not trying to convict your client, I just want justice” and tell them that they “have been just as emotive defending your client as people for Trayvon Martin… and I’m not sure that does you as attorneys a lot of credit.” At some point, Sonner began repeatedly asking Morgan whether he had other questions instead of answering questions, insisting, “we’re not going to litigate this case in the public media.”

We should get them to post here. We'll do like a Crossfire thing with these douchebags in one corner and on the other side Mr. Black and Chap. It'll be a ratings bonanza.

I love NBC! They are SO predictable! As soon as their whole sordid race-baiting thing was exposed, I called it exactly like it would turn out to happen. The final piece came today, when they fired the producer they pinned as the fall guy for their policy.

Honestly, could they be any more transparent?

It'd be nice, if once in a while, they'd just say, "Yeah, we're trying to stir up racial violence, because it fits our political agenda---we cop to it". I won't hold my breath though.

If Zimmerman's not charged, or charged and acquitted, it'll be interesting to see if he sues them. And CNN for that "coon" thing they tried to propagate, before they got caught and were forced to pretend it was all just an accident.

I think you're confusing sensationalism with race baiting.

News companies are out to make money, that's it.

Nope, they all have a political agenda. It's race baiting in this case.

Interesting. I don't see the difference between them and the black panthers.

Yes, because it was totally accidental that they just happened to edit that tape to make it seem as though the guy was giving a racist response. And it just happened to pass through all the checks and edits they have, so there was no chance it was official policy.

Even some of the braver liberals have come out and said they don't buy that.

George Zimmerman's Attorneys Quit, Said Client 'Disappeared'

George Zimmerman's attorneys said in a press conference this afternoon that they will no longer be representing him, because they have not been able to locate him and because he has rebuffed their counsel.

The attorneys said that they had "lost contact" with Zimmerman, and said that he reached out to both the special prosecutor in the case and had an off-the-record conversation with Sean Hannity, the Fox News host.
