George Zimmerman's defense attorney has managed to obtain a recent picture of Trayvon Martin, after months of delays.

The picture shows how old the teenager that attacked his client was, which is something that previous photos released to the press weren't able to do.

The defendant claims that publishing a picture of a younger Martin influenced the public's opinion in this case. 17-year-old Martin was much taller and better built, he says.

According to WKMG Local 6 Orlando, Zimmerman is also complaining to have run out of money because the prosecution is stalling, making him wait for months at a time before releasing evidence. His defense attorney will be asking for a delay in the trial.

“The state seems to have a bottomless pit as far as the experts and the money they're willing to put forth into the case.

“I would just like to be on equal footing with them and we need a very aggressive defense because of the way the state is viewing this case, the aggressive nature they've taken,” attorney Mark O'Mara states.

I thought it innocent until proven guilty.
Maybe you are thinking of the patriot act.

MR. SCOTT SHOULD STOP THIS , he over step his bounds and only did it to get the black vote , it is a shame that he would destroy a man for his own gains . Doesn't he know that white people vote and we will remeber all the money the state wasted .

The thug got what was due. Zimmerman is being railroaded and doesn't deserve this bias treatment. Let the man alone. He only protected himself from a thug who had little respect for anyone as his past record shows

Another case of "what are you doing in this neighborhood". He'll get away with it and many whites will donate to his defense to help him get away with it. From what I have read, he had no business asking the young black man anything, let alone following him or confronting him. It's so sad that we still can't live where we want without suspicion being upon us. When will this world accept the fact that minorities do work, pay taxes, and live where we want without being harassed. The 50-60's are over.

Their is no proof that Trayvon was a violent person, no police record.
As for an adult with a past, who profiles people, who took things into his own hands once he got out of the truck, should be charged with murder 2.
The kid was committing no crime. He stories have never added up. He started and ended the chain of events that lead to this teen's death.
He needs to deal with his actions and pay his due.

They need to just go a head and have his trial. I have never heard of someone soliciting the public for their living expenses and lawyer fees. Now I know what to do if I ever get arrested for something. Ask Joe puvblic to send me money.
