Verizon.com/FiOS Filmmaker Spike Lee watches from the sideline during the first half of an NBA basketball game between the New York Knicks and the New Orleans Hornets while wearing Knicks' Jeremy Lin's Palo Alto high school jersey, Friday, Feb. 17, 2012, in New York. (AP Photo/Frank Franklin II) Filmmaker Spike Lee tweeted the wrong home address for George Zimmerman, the Sanford, Fla., man who many are claiming should be arrested for shooting and killing Trayvon Martin. The tweet could have potentially put the woman who actually lives at that address in danger. The Washington Times’ Kerry Picket went to the address that Lee tweeted as members of the New Black Panther Party were offering a $10,000 cash reward for Zimmerman’s capture, “dead or alive,” and others were demanding his arrest. “[T]he Edgewater Circle address Mr. Lee re-tweeted out is not part of the gated Retreat at Twin Lakes where the shooting took place and where Mr. Zimmerman lives,” Picket reported. “The area is not even a gated a community.” “In fact, I took a drive to that Edgewater Circle address that so many on Twitter re-tweeted and cursed, and I discovered through a neighbor, named Tim, who lives across the street from the address, that not only does George Zimmerman not live at the lakeside house but a woman by the name of Elaine does,” Picket added. Picket also said several news agencies have showed up at the address looking for Zimmerman, which – with the crowds the Panthers, MSNBC’s Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson have whipped up into a frenzy – may have put the woman, Elaine, in danger. It’s unclear specifically which news agencies trekked to the address Lee tweeted and why they failed to report Lee’s inaccuracy. This report follows new revelations in the Martin case, including Zimmerman’s self-described membership in the Democratic Party, freshly surfaced tweets from Martin’s Twitter account, and Martin’s various suspensions from school.

The irony of the street name, Retreat View Circle, just hit me.

That's the first time I heard it was raining. Now we know why he was wearing the hoodie. I think the writer was a bit too impressed by the gun. It's a cheap gun and 9mm is a mediocre caliber. But, in close quarters, it can certainly kill somebody. I would ask Zimmerman about why he didn't try a shot in the foot or the knee? Maybe he fired before he lost control of the gun, but he hasn't said that. Has anyone seen the broken nose or gashed head? I think his lawyer would have taken pictures before these injuries were worked on.
