Appeal court grants George Zimmerman's request for new judge

[Baitball Blogger]

The Fifth District Court of Appeal in Daytona Beach today ruled that second-degree murder suspect George Zimmerman should get a new judge.

A three-judge panel of that court voted 2-1 that Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester Jr. in Sanford went too far when, among other things, he wrote that Zimmerman is a manipulator.

"… this is admittedly a close call," wrote Judge C. Alan Lawson, but Lester's actions, taken in total, meet the legal standard requiring him to step aside.

A second judge, Jay Cohen, agreed. The third panel member, Kerry Evander, disagreed.
