George Zimmerman Painting Takes Aim at Florida Prosecutor
George Zimmerman's latest artwork takes aim at Florida State Attorney Angela Corey, who charged him with second-degree murder in the killing of Trayvon Martin in 2012.
The piece, titled "Angie," shows Corey holding her hand pinched and the words, "I have this much respect for the American Judicial System," written above it. Zimmerman's brother, Robert, tweeted a photo of the painting on Wednesday. He said that more details about its sale will be available Thursday.
Last month, Zimmerman sold a painting of an American flag on eBay for $100,099.99. "I found a creative way to express myself, my emotions and the symbols that represent my experiences," he wrote on the sale page. Zimmerman still has a $2.5 million debt over his head that he owes to his defense attorneys, as of November.
Zimmerman was found not guilty of second-degree murder in July 2013.
