Have they set a date for the start of George Zimmerman's trial yet? If so when?
A Florida judge Wednesday set a
June 10, 2013, date for the trial of George Zimmerman on charges of
second-degree murder in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, USA TODAY's Yamiche
Alcindor reports.
The unarmed 17-year-old
was killed in February as he was walking in a gated Sanford community toward
his father's house.
Zimmerman, 29, has
pleaded not guilty on grounds of self defense.
Zimmerman and his wife
Shellie, 25, are living in hiding in Seminole County awaiting trial.
She is charged with
perjury for allegedly lying at her husband's first bond hearing regarding the
family's finances.
Judge Debra Nelson, who
was presiding over the case for the first time Wednesday since being appointed,
pressed prosecutor Bernie de la Rionda and Zimmerman attorney Mark O'Mara for
timing before determining that June would be an appropriate month.
