Lawyers for George Zimmerman, the man who shot and killed the unarmed black Florida teenager Trayon Martin, have lost contact with their client and withdrawn themselves as his legal representatives. Hal Uhrig and Craig Sonner announced the move at an unusual press conference at the Sanford courthouse this afternoon, at which they suggested that Zimmerman was undergoing some kind of breakdown. They revealed that the self-appointed neighbourhood watch captain, who shot and killed Martin in a much publicised confrontation in his Florida gated community on 26 February, had contacted prosecutors and the Fox News journalist Sean Hannity without their knowledge. The pair said that the 28-year-old Zimmerman's new website, which went live on Monday seeking to raise funds for his defence, was set up independently of their guidance, leading them to believe he no longer wanted them to act for him.

Several peaceful protests have taken place in Sanford, with civil rights leaders Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and members of Martin's family among those calling for Zimmerman's arrest. But the mood in the town has darkened in recent weeks, with activist group the New Black Panthers offering a $10,000 reward for Zimmerman's capture and right-wing extremists planning demonstrations on his behalf.

This guy and his dad are reminding me of the van der Sloots in the Natalee Holloway case.

This is old news. Read up and you will find out that Zimmerman contacted the special prosecutor.

If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !
libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=29309 There's a direct conflict about the web site, I don't trust your Brit commie source. The UK Guardian should be over at Buckingham Palace checking to see if Michelle stole any of the Queens silverware. Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Yes, the article mentions that.

The question is, how did they get Zimmermen to cooperate?

The official said that three surrounding counties had activated emergency operations centres to a level usually only seen during hurricanes, while thousands of national guard troops would be available at the discretion of Florida governor Rick Scott.
