George Zimmerman tells court he's $2.5M in debt, needs a public defender

(CNN)A court allowed George Zimmerman to use a public defender in his alleged stalking case after he filed documents saying he's $2.5 million in debt and has zero income.

Zimmerman is facing stalking accusations in his latest legal woes since his 2013 acquittal in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

Details of his finances were filed in a Seminole County court to support his request for a public defender. In the documents, he lists that he's unemployed and has $0 in assets including cash, bank accounts and equity on property.

Zimmerman is accused of repeatedly threatening and harassing Dennis Warren between December 16 and December 25 of last year, the sheriff's office said.

5. I suspect the NRA and/or other right wing organizations got funds

to him after his murder trial. He got used to the upgraded lifestyle, but the financial support slowly faded. After all, what has a dummy like that have to offer after the national spotlight goes away?

Years ago, a friend of mine who was a NRA member, shared a NRA letter with me which was a solicitation for donations to a fund for Stacey Koon, the LAPD goon who was doing Federal time for the beating of Rodney King.

Right wing sympathies are always receptive to racists.

A man in Florida was convicted and is serving prison time because he shot first instead of waiting for Zimmerman to murder him. The imprisoned man's lawyers should work to get his conviction overturned.

every rotten thing that happens to him.

I hope he dies in an alley, alone and penniless.
