George Zimmerman Worried as Trial Ends

Facing a long time in prison

George Zimmerman is worried as his murder trial draws to a close, fearing that he could spend the rest of his life in prison if found guilty or in hiding if acquitted, his lawyer said.

Zimmerman has spent the last few days huddling with family, ABC News has learned.

Zimmerman, 29, is charged with second degree murder for killing Trayvon Martin, 17, on Feb. 26, 2012. If convicted of that charge he could be sentenced to 25 years to life. If Zimmerman is convicted of a lesser charge like manslaughter, he could be sentenced to as much as 30 years.

Gotta love lesser charges carrying longer sentences.

with florida law, if he's convicted of anything -he shouldn't be, but will I think- he's just as screwed if it was second degree.

Sounds like mission accomplished for the race baiters, then.

Remember Kids. If you piss off a gang bangin' ghetto trashin' dope smokin' grill sportin' hood rat and he tries to beat you to within an inch of your life...you must let him do it. And by all means do not shoot him lest you make yourself the target of Liberals against guns, violence, and racism everywhere.

Remember Kids. If you stalk and follow a suspected gang bangin' ghetto trashin' dope smokin' grill sportin' hood rat and he beats your pussy ass...you must remember that you had the chance to mind your own business and leave it to the police. But when you don't and you kill the kid instead and just minding your own business expect to be charged and face trial - much better thanks GLK
