That was money intended for his defense. Do donations count as income?

The Pay Pal account was all over the media. Why was nothing mentioned by the court until now?

After all that has come out, does ANYONE think there is a case here?

The “Judge” is pandering to the race pimps!

Zimmerman needs to show up wearing a hoodie and luggin’ some bags of “Skillets” candy.

Utter horse dung. Zimmerman doesn’t need to be anywhere near a jail.

I hope his defense can keep him from being locked up...it will be a travesty if he spends ANY time behind bars.

Zimmerman had more than $200,000 in a PayPal account

As I recall, that account was set up just days before his release. PayPal usually takes several days to release funds, so he may in fact have not *really* had the actual money until after his release on bail.

He's just another race baiting democrat thrown under the bus for political gain. If this case were against a white man he would be part of the screaming mob calling for his head. I have no sympathy for Zimm. He is reaping what he has sown.

Many years ago, I learned how the attorneys played "I want that judge" game.

Bond shouldn't be dependent on what you own.

Actually, it sounds like Zimmerman misled the court about his financial status. My guess is that it was by accident - that he didn’t know exactly what the money collected for his defense could be used for.

Getting a second passport, however, is a reasonable sign someone is considering fleeing, and would be important information for the judge to consider.

OTOH, if the tracking devices are good - and I don’t have any idea how reliable they are - then I’m not sure it matters. The point is to make sure he shows up for his trial, not to punish him in advance of his trial.

I don’t think anything was done wrong. There may have been an account for donations to zimmerman on paypal, But that doesn’t make the money his because he had to get legal and accounting advice on that money. There was no intent here to hide this money. Zimmerman just didn’t know exactly *what* he could use it for until he got his legal and accounting advice. Judges don’t give legal and accounting advice to defendants.

Well let's face it. If he had the passport and if he had the Paypal money available to him for the month of May, and didn't run, then he must not be much of a flight risk.

Anyway why run now when the prosecution and Trayvonistas are the ones running scared. They're the ones who want him to go away before all the rest of their so-called evidence collapses.
