George Zimmerman to court: I have no job, no assets, and owe $2.5 million

[ansible]

A court allowed George Zimmerman to use a public defender in his alleged stalking case after he filed documents saying he’s $2.5 million in debt and has zero income. Zimmerman is facing stalking accusations in his latest legal woes since his 2013 acquittal in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

Details of his finances were filed in a Seminole County court to support his request for a public defender. In the documents, he lists that he’s unemployed and has $0 in assets including cash, bank accounts and equity on property. Zimmerman is accused of repeatedly threatening and harassing Dennis Warren between December 16 and December 25 of last year, the sheriff’s office said.

Warren is a private investigator who was hired by a production company that was working on a documentary about Martin’s life, according to CNN affiliate WKMG. Deputies said Zimmerman called Warren 55 times, left 36 voicemails, texted him 67 times and sent 27 emails over a nine-day span,according to the affiliate.

This is just the latest in a lengthy list of legal issues for Zimmerman. He was a neighborhood watch captain in Sanford, Florida, in February 2012 when he shot and killed Martin, an unarmed black 17-year-old.

1. I would like to know how he was able to get that much in debt with no income.

[fescuerescue]

16. lawyers.

They take case(s) knowing they probably won't get paid, but even if they don't, they'll make it up in exposure.

Then they bill the client. If the client ever comes into money, they might get paid.

Even OJ lawyers didn't get fully paid. But they sure made out like bandits from the exposure.

2. He was not a "neighborhood watch captain," he was a vigilante.

I hope he dies penniless, friendless and shitting in his diapers.

[sfwriter]

27. Wow, you are generous...

I wouldn’t give him the diaper.

[RockRaven]

3. gee, why doesn't he have a job?

it's a mystery!

[quartz007]

8. Yap, may be white Hispanics can't find jobs? LOL

Does this vigilante know that even blacks who usually are at the bottom of unemployment stats, now have the lowest unemployment rate on record?

Me thinks Georgie is a lazy ass.

17. black unemployment rate (6.6%) is still 1.83 X the white unemployment rate (3.6%)

black unemployment rate https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000006

white unemployment rate https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000003

However, their labor force participation rates (employed + those actively seeking work) are about identical, probably within the margin of error (black: 61.9%, white: 62.9%)

21. Sorry to say, it will always be higher than whites

Because racial discrimination in various forms still exists.
But I am happy to see more blacks are employed now than before.

[progree]

25. Yup on all of the above. n/t

[bitterross]

4. I'm happy he has a miserable life. It is what he deserves. /nt

[Grassy Knoll]

5. Maybe He Could Get A Job Cleaning Loaded Firearms...

Fuckin Stupid Punk.

[johnp3907]

6. He should start a GoFuckMe campaign.

[safeinOhio]

7. Then it should go to jail and get

those 3 hots and cot.

[CentralMass]

29. And a cellmate named Bubba.

[Thomas Hurt]

9. Perfect for the Trump Admin...utterly unqualified, thuggish, violent, and in debt...

[EffieBlack]

11. And whining about it like he's owed something ...

[EffieBlack]

10. Awww. That's too bad

But I need to get back to filing my nails.

[ChoppinBroccoli]

12. I Bet Trayvon Martin Would LOVE To Be ALIVE And In Debt Right Now

If only someone would have explained to him that being a racist and a murderer was so bad for your bottom line. #SorryNotSorry

[malaise]

22. +1,000 n/t

[bullwinkle428]

13. Thoughts and prayers, ASSHOLE.

[Demovictory9]

14. and I killed a young man who was minding his own business

[mnmoderatedem]

15. and I have no sympathy (nt)

[dembotoz]

18. He should have been able to parlay the murder into a nice income

Guest appearance at nra functions, gun shows, gop conventions...
Maybe a book deal
He blew it..

[treestar]

24. True! There are enough deplorables

you know, the Ann Coulter market, who would buy up his book, too.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

19. Boo hoo

[raccoon]

20. It couldn't happen to a nicer person.: Sarcasm: nt tea

[TheBlackAdder]

23. Odd. It seems he's always frequenting area bars. Where does he get the money to do that?

[dameatball]

26. He could sell his guns for starters.

I'm sure there are some melon headed Nazis out there that would pay big bucks for the gun that killed Trayvon. If my memory is correct, they returned the gun to him after his acquittal.

[Hoyt]

28. You'd think the NRA and white wing gunners would help one of their own out.
