This has nothing to do with whether Zimmerman goes to trial for
murder. It is only the terms of his bail. He has not demonstrated any
flight risk so far and showed up every time he was summoned.


If he were a stand up guy, as you suggest, why the need to lie to a
judge and collude with his wife in order to do so?


I imagine he was trying to conserve enough money to pay a lawyer. This
is going to be a $100,000-200,000 trial for him. You can bet your ass
O'mara's fee will be all he has.


Why would hiding the truth from the judge help him conserve money? The
cost of the bond isn't a good reason to sacrafice your integrity in a
very public way in the same district and court that's about to try you
for murder.

He's a stupid asshole is the correct answer to why he'd do something
so stupid. But you feel free to defend his actions, because you'd
probably make the same sort of decisions in the same circumstance,
right?
