Lawyer: Zimmerman Raises Over $200,000 for Defense 
---------------------------------------------------


 
George Zimmerman, the Florida man charged in the killing of Trayvon
Martin, has reportedly raised over $200,000 for his defense. The money
was collected through Zimmerman's now-defunct website, which contained
photos of pro-Zimmerman slogans, including a sign at a rally by
Koran-burning Pastor Terry Jones and a photo of a vandalized black
cultural center at Ohio State University where someone spray-painted the
words, "Long Live Zimmerman." Zimmerman was released on $150,000-bail
earlier this week.
