George Zimmerman's attorneys said in a press conference this afternoon that they will no longer be representing him. The attorneys claim that Zimmerman repeatedly rebuffed their legal advice, and that they have now lost contact with him.
Craig Sonner and Hal Uhrig, Zimmerman's lawyers, also said that their client had spoken with Sean Hannity, the Fox News host, but would not reveal the details of the discussion.
"George called Sean Hannity of Fox News off the record and he was unwilling to tell us what was said," Uhrig said.
Sonner said that Zimmerman had stopped responding to their phone calls, and that they did not know exactly where he was, although they thought that he was no longer in Florida.
Sonner also said that Zimmerman reached out to the special prosecutor in the case, against their wishes. "We were a bit astonished and had some conversation back and forth with the prosecutor's office," Uhrig said."They told us what we expected, '[that] we're not going to talk to a criminal or [defendant] without counsel "
Trayvon Martin Case: George Zimmerman's Attorneys Quit, Said Client 'Disappeared'
Zimmerman has a real history of doing what he was told NOT TO DO. Trying to call the special prosecutor------shows his elevator really doesn't hit the top floor.
If you're gonna criticize Zimmerman for his past, then let's not overlook the fact that Martin wasn't the choir boy that the media made him appear to be.
Frankly, I'm not surprised that people are so hyperbolic... with the media frenzy surrounding the case. I'm appalled by the coverage.... but idiots carry on taking every damned word the media produce as Gospel Truth.
