Defense gets more evidence in Trayvon Martin case

By MIKE SCHNEIDERAssociated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Prosecutors have turned over witness statements, FBI reports and crime scene photos to the attorney representing the former neighborhood watch volunteer charged with killing 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
Prosecutors also said Friday they plan to release 151 calls George Zimmerman made from jail, early next week, but then revised that to only six phone calls after Zimmerman's attorney, Mark O'Mara informed them that he would file a motion objecting to the release of most of the calls.
Some of those calls led to a judge revoking Zimmerman's $150,000 bond earlier this month. It also led to the arrest of his wife on a charge of making a false statement.
The calls show Zimmerman telling his wife in April how to transfer about $135,000 raised from a website to different bank accounts. Just days later, Shellie Zimmerman testified at her husband's bail hearing that she didn't know how much money had been raised by the website.
Zimmerman is pleading not guilty, claiming self-defense.
