George Zimmerman Loses Lawyer as Cops Seek Fight Video

George Zimmerman's lawyer said today he will no longer represent the man acquitted of murder in the death of teenager Trayvon Martin, even as police say that Zimmerman or his wife could face charges over Monday's domestic dispute.

Zimmerman's attorney, Mark O'Mara, made the announcement one day after Shellie Zimmerman called police to say that George had assaulted her father and threatened her, leaving her "very, very scared."

Police said today they are still investigating the incident and that either George or his wife Shellie Zimmerman could eventually face charges.

1. O'Mara will still represent him in the defamation suit against NBC

because that's where the bucks are.

2. Can't really blame him.

Being tied to that idiot can only hurt him now.

5. It might also have something to do with his deal with CNN.

It is hard to have time to be a legal analyst if you have to constantly run after Zimmerman and get him out of trouble.

7. Winning the crim trial - great for ego. Representing the hot-headed wife abuser? Not so much.

8. Zimmerman will be a constant reminder of how dangerous it is when a gun toting hothead feels

he's operating within the boundaries of the law.

That's why they should have given the benefit of the doubt to the person who was being stalked.

9. I'm disgusted with CNN for hiring O'Mara

10. This is going to be an interesting situation.

Now that he is divorcing himself from Zimmerman, how much can he say about his previous client without breaching the attorney-client privilege? And if he has to gag himself because of professional ethics, just what does he bring to the table for CNN?

11. O'Mara is no dummy.

He sees the writing on the wall -- there WILL be another very bad Zimmerman incident, one O'Mara or any other attorney will have a very difficult time getting ol' Zimmie out of.

Just a matter of time....
