Attorneys for George Zimmerman, [...], say they can't find him, fear for his safety
Fox News ^ | April 11, 2012 | Phil Keating

George Zimmerman, the Sanford, Fla., man at the center of the Trayvon Martin shooting death, has gone off the grid. Disappeared. And his attorneys are now no longer his attorneys.

“George can’t go down to the 7-Eleven to buy a Coke,” says former attorney Hal Uhrig. “There’s a bounty on his head. Whether it’s believed to be a bounty or not, it’s out there. He probably watches more of this than he should. He’s largely alone -- whether that means he’s absolutely alone or not, he’s at least emotionally alone. And you might even say “emotionally crippled” by virtue of the pressure of this case.”

If Zimmerman showed up at my door he’d be welcome for dinner and a place to sleep for a while.

I also have some things that need to get done around the house and it would be nice to have some help.

(Is that ok to say.... you know, earn your keep? Or is that racists because he is actually a “White Latino”?)

Idaho, Wyoming, or Montana. Washington, Oregon and California are all too dimocrat and too leftist to feel safe in. I lived in WA state 15 years and hated it. Finally got to come home to Alabama. My wife, from Seattle, goes back to visit family. I refuse to go back to that place. I love Wyoming. That is a great place to go and be yourself and alone.

Yeah, but, If I had a son. Where the hell did he come up with that?

He might as well have simply said, ‘Kill Zimmerman now’.
Whether that was his intent or not, that is what he did.

How STUPID can a person be? Obama is beyond Left or Right or Liberal or anything. He is just a crazy stupid idiot. Jeez.

A Big shout out to my friend Soros. Look at it Soros. Look at what you did. Bad dog!

Neighborhood watch. We have those signs in my neighborhood. I’ll decline to participate from now on.

Oregon feels awfully safe to me. One in eight adults in my county are CCW holders. But for a few square miles, this is a red State.

Or he could just refuse a subpoena requiring him to appear in court, much like Holder has done in the ‘Fast and Furious’ debacle.

I hope he is somewhere Eric Holder can’t find him.

Mentioned on the other thread that he would qualify as a political refugee. Your thoughts?

thanks to Obama’s encouragement of a race war. How timely! How opportune! The tail is wagging the dog once again!

This is why you need a non-US passport. You will not know you need it until you need it. Then it is too late.

MY STATEMENT FROM ANOTHER THREAD:

Freepers,

Believe it or not, Zimmerman has a pretty good case for political asylum in another country. Pretty astounding in this day and age, but true. Look at the facts:

1. He can't get a fair trial here. Jurors will be intimidated.

2. If he turns himself in, there's a good chance it wouldn't even make it trial. After all, there's a bounty on his head.

3. It's obvious he'd get no civil rights protection from the national government here. In fact, they seem to be on the side of the mob, and will aid in the persecution.

4. The peace officers, whose duty it is to protect the innocent until proven otherwise, can't even protect itself from the political mob.

This is the book definition of a political refugee status. If I were him, and I couldn't get out of the country, I'd find a foreign embassy or consulate, and ask for protection. Yeah, I know it sounds third world, but he's got a case.

“Mentioned on the other thread that he would qualify as a political refugee”

Not a chance. The US has a 2002 extradition treaty with Peru.

“needs some one...and anyone can do it…it does not require a lawyer to get an official copy of his U.S. birth certificate...”

No, that can't be. It takes years and years to get a copy of a U.S. birth certificate — even with lawyers, and powerful politicians involved. Even then, you can't be sure you'll get an actual true copy of an actual birth certificate. Anyone, who claims to know someone with a birth certificate is just repeating an urban myth.

Lawyers couldn’t get hold of him on Monday. Would there be cell phone contact if he was on a flight to South America?
