Spike Lee Reportedly Tweeted WRONG Address for George Zimmerman

Spike Lee incited quite a controversy last week when he re-tweeted George Zimmerman’s home address to his 200,000 followers. With a $10,000 bounty on his head, George Zimmerman — who shot and killed 17-year old Trayvon Martin last month — was certainly in danger if a mob got its hands on him.

Indeed, the leader of the New Black Panthers’ statement, “God d***it, he should be fearful for his life,” and subsequent Twitter comments along the lines of, “Lets go smash this n***a…EVERYBODY REPOST THIS George W. Zimmerman 159 Edgewater Circle Sanford, Florida 32773 (407)435-2400,” confirmed that any visits would not be a simple social call.

So it’s a little embarrassing that Washington Times reporter Kerry Picket decided to take a drive near Zimmerman’s supposed residence and found that, “The 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. The area is not even a gated community.”

In fact, Picket met the man who lives across the street and found that a woman named Elaine actually lives at the address, and has been put in danger by the overwhelming publicity.

If anything should happen to these people than spike lee needs to be charged accordingly.this is getting crazy.I dont see how he hasnt been charged with reckless endangerment at the least.along with the black kitten party for putting a bounty out on the man.no matter how it went down....justice should be taken care of by the police and courts not the people that have anyrhing to gain.only person in my mond that I can see having a right to react would be his parents.lord knows id flip out if it was my kid thug or not

There is an unredacted 911 call from Z that includes his phone number and house number. It doesn't include the street. The one spikey posted is not even close. Don't know about phone number as I didn't write it down.

If some evil were to happen to Z I would hope spikey and others are charged as accomplices.
