4. Translation: GZ lied to the judge
Mon Jun 4, 2012, 07:15 PM
Jun 2012

This is surreal. A lawyer can make a statement that his client "allowed his financial situation to be misstated in court." In other words, he committed perjury, which is a prosecutable offense last time I checked. I wonder if that will happen....

Yet, there's a presumption that GZ will be released on bond. Will he ever pay lasting consequences for murdering Trayvon?

Bail should be denied, and the killer should remain locked up until the trial.
