George Zimmerman praises Trump and Fox News on 5-year anniversary of Trayvon Martin’s death – Raw Story

On the fifth anniversary of Trayvon Martins death, the man who took his life joined WeSearchr for an interview in which hediscussed which news organizations truthfully covered the shooting.

George Zimmerman, who killed 17-year-old Martin and was ultimately found not guilty on second-degree murder charges, told WeSearchr host Peter Duke, Fox News was the only one that reported carefully. Zimmerman added, Iwould say Sean Hannity himself was the only person that reported the truth at the time, which was that everyone knew nothing until the trial. And I thank him for that.

Duke later asked Zimmerman how his political outlook has changed in the last five years. Well, I trust that Mr. Trump will do the right thing, he said, adding that his political convictions havent changed over time and that Trump is the right man for the job to make sure that America is great again.

Zimmerman was also asked how he would solve the so-called black crime epidemic if he were president.
