SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — George Zimmerman has returned to Florida and will turn himself in to authorities by Sunday's deadline after a judge revoked his bond in the Trayvon Martin case, an attorney said.

Attorney Mark O'Mara announced Zimmerman's return on his website Sunday, saying Zimmerman arrived late Saturday evening. Zimmerman, who is charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of the 17-year-old Martin, was ordered by a judge Friday to return to jail.

The press release on the website said the deadline for his surrender is 2:30 p.m. Sunday.

Zimmerman's legal team said Sunday that they will ask for a new bond hearing to address those concerns, and that they hope Zimmerman's voluntary surrender will show he is not a flight risk. Furthermore, the money Zimmerman has raised is in an independent trust and cannot be directly accessed by Zimmerman or his attorneys, according to the press release.

7. Good. I am amused by these 2 paragraphs. wtf?

Prosecutor Bernie De la Rionda complained Friday, "This court was led to believe they didn't have a single penny. It was misleading and I don't know what words to use other than it was a blatant lie." The judge agreed and ordered Zimmerman returned to jail by Sunday afternoon.
The defense countered that Zimmerman and his wife never used the money for anything, which indicated "there was no deceit."

They had money, but didn't use it "for anything" so...there was no lie?

9. So what's up with Zimmerman?

Is he in jail yet or did daddy bail him out again?

[Peaceful Protester]

10. 1/4 million and a passport?

Why did George Zimmerman feel it necessary to hide this information from the court?

...was he preparing to flee the country?

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

11. He hid it because of where the money came from: Gun nuts and white supremacy groups!

That's what I think, anyways. I wouldn't be surprised at all if some of it came from the KKKoch Bros. and KKKarl Rove!

12. You can look him up in the database:

He has only spent three bucks so far.

13. Judge Lester isn't happy.

Lester appeared angry that the court had not been told about the money.

"Does your client get to sit there like a potted palm and let you lead me down the primrose path?" he asked Zimmerman's lawyer. "That's the issue."
