Trayvon’s family was always concerned that Zimmerman doesn’t try to skirt his legal responsibilities and become a flight risk. We always wanted this before a judge and a jury. We hope that [authorities] will take this under consideration that this a flight risk. If they go to press charges, is he really going to face them?
In a statement issued to Time, Benjamin Crump, attorney for Trayvon Martin’s family, expressed surprise over Craig Sonner and Hal Uhrig’s announcement that the lawyers had lost contact with their client, George Zimmerman.
