Attorney: Zimmerman's "under a lot of stress," has a broken nose, is in hiding

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Just now on Melissa Harris Perry's MSNBC show. Zimmerman's Attorney is now speaking out, saying his client is "under a lot of stress," that he "received a broken nose and blows to his head" during the incident with Trayvon, that he knows that he is the object of hatred and has been advised to remain in hiding due to receiving multoiple death threats.

What else would you expect his attorney to say? The only surprise here is the "broken nose and blows to the head." Should be interesting to hear the story behind how he got a broken nose chasing an unarmed 17 year old kid and murdering him in cold blood.

1. I heard some black guys carved a backwards B on his nose, too.

I hope Zimmerman is haunted.

2. Did he receive medical attention for that "broken nose"?

Surely the cops would have taken him to the hospital and there would be a medical report.

3. Should also be photos n/t

5. That was my first thought.

And if I had been his family member, I would have insisted that Zimmerman go to the hospital and get his injuries assessed and documented just to protect him legally. If they didn't do that, then his claim of injury is highly suspect even to someone who hasn't followed this case.

7. Per the excerpted police reports Zimmerman was treated on the scene by paramedics

So at minimum there is a report by a public agency.

4. He probably fell while chasing him n/t

6. Cry me a river. . .

Boo-freaking-hoo. I hope he has hemorrhoids, too.

8. Maybe because the kid fought for his life....nt

9. Turning into a "shot heard around the world"

I guess Mr. Zimmerman didn't realize exactly what sort of fire power he was unleashing. On himself.

All I can say is no matter how bad things are for him now, if that had been MY kid, oh things would be much worse for him.

10. Boo F'n Hoo

Bet by the time he finally shows his sorry face, the "wounds" will be completely "healed."

11. Trayvon was killed February 26

Since it's now almost 4 weeks later any wounds of the nature described would likely not be visible.
