George Zimmerman Sues Warren, Buttigieg for Defamation

George Zimmerman, the Florida man who killed teenager Trayvon Martin, is suing Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and former South Bend, Indiana. Mayor Pete Buttigieg, accusing them of defamation, Newsweek reports.

Zimmerman, who was acquitted of murder in 2012, has filed a lawsuit in federal court accusing the two Democratic presidential candidates of acting with malice or “at a minimum a reckless disregard for the truth” when they tweeted about Martin’s death on the date of what would have been his 25th birthday.
