Zimmerman’s attorneys: ‘We’ve lost contact with Zimmerman’ (Withdraw from Case)

Not a good sign for Georgie boy…..
Sonner said that last contact was via text message.
Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who shot and killed Trayvon Martin Feb. 26 in Sanford, Fla., contacted state attorney Angela Corey and Fox News host Sean Hannity on his own without their guidance, Uhrig said. According to Uhrig, Zimmerman said, “I don’t have any attorneys, they’re just my legal advisers.”
The conversation with Hannity happened today, Uhrig said, and was off the record.
Uhrig said he was puzzled by how Zimmerman thinks there’s a difference between an “attorney” and a “legal adviser.”
“I’m not sure what the distinction is, but in his mind there’s a distinction,” Uhrig said.
Sonner said he has not met with Zimmerman “face to face” and that he does not plan to reveal Zimmerman’s location. Sonner also said he “stands by” everything he’s said about the case to this point, including how he thinks Zimmerman was acting in “self-defense” and that this case was not a “racial issue.”
“It’s not so much that we are resigning,” Sonner said. “It’s that we cannot continue to represent him until he comes forward.”
“He has gone on his own,” he added. “I don’t know what he’s doing or who he’s talking to. I cannot represent a client who doesn’t stay in contact with me.”
“I know his phone works, but he’s not returning my text messages or my calls,” Sonner said.
Sonner said that Zimmerman is still in the United States and that he doesn’t expect him to “flee the country.”
Uhrig added that Zimmerman is still living in fear. “George can’t go out and buy a Diet Coke,” he said. “There’s a bounty on his head.”
Uhrig and Sonner said that Zimmerman set up a new website on his own — therealGeorgeZimmerman.com — even though they were planning to launch a website for him on their own. The attorneys had planned to direct national media to their site and said they were shocked by the website Zimmerman launched.
“Him setting up his own web site is fine,” Sonner said. “I wish he would have told me.”
NBC Fires Producer in Flap Over Manipulated 911 Call in Trayvon Martin Case
April 7, 2012 by Jack Blood

The controversy erupted after “Today” aired a segment that made shooter George Zimmerman sound as though he was racially profiling the 17-year-old black youth.
NBC News has fired the producer it deemed most responsible for the airing of a selectively edited 911 call placed by George Zimmerman the night he killed Trayvon Martin.
Sources at NBC who asked not to be identified confirmed a New York Times story saying that a Miami-based producer was fired Thursday, though the sources refused to identify the former employee.
The offending segment aired on NBC’s Today show March 27 but went widely unnoticed until it was highlighted by conservative outlets such as the Media Research Center and Breitbart.com.
Two days after the Today gaffe, Sean Hannity ran a segment about NBC’s manipulation of the 911 call on his Fox News Channel show. The story went viral when the Drudge Report linked to a Hollywood Reporter story about the growing controversy last week.
In the original 911 call, Zimmerman is heard describing Martin as such: “This guy looks like he’s up to no good. Or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around, looking about.”
The dispatcher then asks: “OK, and this guy – is he white, black or Hispanic?”
“He looks black,” Zimmerman responds.
The version NBC ran, though, was much shorter and did not include the question posed by the 911 operator.
“This guy looks like he’s up to no good. He looks black,” Zimmerman is heard saying in NBC’s edited version.
The difference is significant, since activists have been claiming that Zimmerman had racially profiled Martin. Critics have argued that NBC set out to purposely advance that narrative by condensing the 911 tape to make it appear that Zimmerman’s motivation for assuming Martin was “up to no good” was based on his skin color.
NBC announced Saturday that it had launched an investigation into the matter, and on Tuesday it apologized for its “error” and said it had completed its inquiry.
“We will be taking the necessary steps to prevent this from happening in the future and apologize to our viewers,” NBC said Tuesday.
