George Zimmerman is a free man and because of that, he may be entitled to having legal expenses from his trial paid for.

From the Orlando Sentinel:

 

 

Because Zimmerman was acquitted, state law requires Florida to pay all his legal costs, minus the biggest one: the fee that goes to his lawyers.

 

 

That includes the cost of expert witnesses, travel, depositions, photocopies, even that animated 3-D video that defense attorneys showed jurors during closing argument that depicts Trayvon punching Zimmerman.

Zimmerman’s attorney Mark O’Mara says the motion is “in the works” and that Zimmerman plans to seek between $200,000- $300,000 in expenses.

 

 

What do you think?

Should the state pay for George Zimmerman’s court cost?
