Decision in Trayvon Martin case expected by Friday; Zimmerman goes AWOL from lawyers
SANFORD, Fla. -- With prosecutors saying they will announce a decision in the Trayvon Martin case by Friday, George Zimmerman appears to have struck out on his own.
He launched a website without telling his two attorneys, spoke to a talk show host and put in a call to the special prosecutor investigating him for the Feb. 26 shooting of Martin. After Zimmerman went AWOL from his lawyers for two days, the attorneys held a news conference late Tuesday afternoon and quit.
Hours later, special prosecutor Angela Corey announced she would make an important announcement in the case in the next 72 hours.
"I'd have to count how many text messages I sent saying: 'Please call me. Please call me collect. Please text me. Please email me. Please, so we can go forward,' " one of Zimmerman's lawyers, Craig Sonner, said about his former client. "After I started getting calls from different people saying that he was giving statements to the media, calling the prosecutor's office and not calling me, that's when it started dawning on me that I wasn't the attorney of record anymore."
