This is already a difficult enough issue as it is.” 13 Jun 2013 EXCLUSIVE: Zimmerman Brother: 'I Am Very Concerned About The Safety of Jurors' On Wednesday afternoon, Robert Zimmerman, brother of George Zimmerman, the former neighborhood watch volunteer now on trial for the death of Trayvon Martin, spoke exclusively to Breitbart News about jury selection. “I am very concerned about the safety of jurors,” he said. 12 Jun 2013 Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Next
