George Zimmerman threatens to feed JAY-Z to alligator over Trayvon Martin documentary
He’s got 99 problems, but a wannabe cop who gets away with shooting an unarmed teenager because of a loophole called the Stand Your Ground law ain’t one.
Controversial gunman George Zimmerman took a verbal shot at JAY-Z over the weekend, threatening to “beat” the rapper and feed him to “an alligator” over the Jiggaman’s role in a Trayvon Martin documentary, according to a report.
Zimmerman, who gunned down 17-year-old Trayvon in February 2012, said he has a score to settle with the rapper, whose real name is Shawn Carter, over the way his family was treated by Carter’s camera crew, according to entertainment website Blast.
An unrepentant Zimmerman was whining about a production team that made unannounced visits to the homes of his parents and an uncle in Florida, and he said JAY-Z and executive producer Michael Gesparro indirectly “harassed” his family.
“I know how to handle people who f–k with me,” Zimmerman said Saturday, crassly adding “I have since February 2012.”
Zimmerman says he is holding JAY-Z and Gesparro responsible, and “anyone who f—s with my parents will be fed to an alligator.”
The 34-year-old Zimmerman also complained over money he claims has been paid to his ex-wife for her participation in the documentary. He said producers have refused to pay his parents or family members for their cooperation.
JAY-Z is the man behind a six-part docuseries titled “Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story,” based on the book “Suspicion Nation” by attorney Lisa Bloom. The project will chronicle the too-short life of Martin, his fatal shooting by on Feb. 26, 2012, and Zimmerman’s acquittal the following year.
JAY-Z didn’t comment on the threat, but he had plenty of supporters come to his defense, including fellow rap star Snoop Dogg, who fired back on Instagram.
“If one hair on jays hair is touched that’s when the revolution will be televised,” Snoop Dogg wrote. “We one, and to thank the system, let the Bitch ass muthaf–a get away with murder try it again. Trayvon Martin Gone but not forgotten.”
