In reply to the discussion: Witnesses contradict zimmerman's claims [View all]BanzaiBonnie
(3,621 posts)23. Randi Rhodes reported today that Zimmerman wrote on an application that
his father was a judge in Virginia.
Randi stated that as far as she understood that Zimmerman's dad was military. It waits to be seen how the facts actually roll out.
This is bad news for Zimmerman either way. If his father was a judge, then it begs the question, were strings pulled. If his dad was never a judge, that makes Zimmerman a ginormous liar. This will work against him either way.

His dad was a judge in VA and is now retired. He's not going to have much pull in FL. (nt)

The only guess I have is that she wants to make sure to get the evidence before the arrest?

That story didn't make sense to me. On tv they hold you for 2 or 3 days in a case like this.

Where is the autopsy report? Was he shot in the back or not? That's what I want to know.
