Bail for Zimmerman Set at $9,000
More importantly, we finally have a new photo
Bail for George Zimmerman, charged with felony aggravated assault and two misdemeanors on allegations that he pointed a shotgun at his girlfriend in Florida, was set Tuesday afternoon at $9,000 during Zimmerman's first court appearance.
A Seminole County judge put conditions on Zimmerman's bail: That he cannot return to two Florida addresses; he cannot have contact with the accuser; he cannot possess weapons; he must wear a monitoring device; and he cannot travel outside Florida.
The judge initially said Zimmerman could return to one of the banned addresses with law enforcement to retrieve his belongings, but later -- at the urging of the prosecutor -- reversed that allowance, saying a third party could get the belongings instead.
