I did tellya he'd do that, mind - his own mouth will sink him faster than any available evidence since his ego requires gestures which are legally counterproductive, but then, it was his ego what got him into this mess in the first place.
I do stand by my initial assessment of the matter.

"Something changed around Sunday," Sonner told CNN, "and (Zimmerman) cut off all contact and has started doing things without telling me he's doing them."
Uhrig said Tuesday Zimmerman had, on his own, called Sean Hannity of Fox News and Corey's office.
"One of the things every defense attorney tells his client is, don't talk to the prosecutors. Don't talk to the cops. Frankly, don't talk to anybody until we get control of the situation, and do it through counsel," said Uhrig.
He added he was concerned about his former client's "emotional and physical safety" and said Zimmerman could be suffering from "post-traumatic stress."
While it seems like the guy is getting a raw deal in some respects, it also seems like he's not helping HIMSELF at the same time. Seems to me pretty dumb to go on Hannity, and equally dumb to contact the prosecutor. Curiouser and curiouser...

I'd be surprised if Zimmerman *ISN'T* suffering from something akin to PTSD at this point. Doesn't mean that's why he shot Martin, but the way the story blew up after the fact, he could very well be frazzled and fried. At this point, if he were caught nude and masturbating in the middle of the street, it wouldn't be all that shocking.
The Fame Monster eats people alive, and its hunger is never sated. Hopefully Z isn't found dead in a cheap hotel somewhere with an 8-ball and a hooker, because I would like him to get his day in court. That's really at the crux of this whole mess: the fact that Trayvon never got to present his side, and the idea that the courts weren't making any moves to present it for him. Both sides should be heard, and all the facts taken into account.

Well, well, thank gawd for small favors. Maybe it will calm things. The way the justice system works, it'll probably be a couple of YEARS before it comes to trial, by which time everyone will have forgotten about it. Will be interesting to see what comes out at trial; I hope it doesn't stir everything up again if they say they can't prosecute him because of "stand your ground". That really needs to be dealt with!

(Speaking as an average person without a degree in psychology)
George Zimmerman reaks of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
He's no crazier now than he has been for years, but he's under
a huge amount of stress. Makes his disorder(s) more obvious.
Neither he nor his family ever had sense enough to cop to his
problems. This is the result.
. . . . .The worst and most frequent consequence of paranoia is that it's self-fulfilling.

For the record, enough time hasn't elapsed for him to get away with saying he has PTSD, sure he's under acute stress, which can cause symptoms like that and its normal for someone going through court stuff, especially if he shot someone, to be kind of messed up right now, but that doesn't mean anything for the long term.
I assume you're my pal until you let me know otherwise.
