Statement Regarding June 29 Bond Hearing for George Zimmerman

In today’s hearing, as part of the defense team’s presentation on the  Motion to Set Reasonable Bond, evidence was introduced to the court to show  the weaknesses in the State’s murder case against Mr. Zimmerman and to support Mr. Zimmerman’s consistently maintained position that he acted in self defense. Further, we submitted evidence through the testimony of a forensic expert verifying  that all the money in question has been properly accounted for. The Court will review the evidence submitted, and we anticipate a decision on bond will be made early next week. The defense requested that the court reinstate the original $150,000 bond.
