"They were such obedient children. They were such a nice family. The children always said yes ma'am and no ma'am," said Kay Hall.
George Hall, who is a retired Presbyterian pastor, says Zimmerman came back to the area several years ago to ask him to write a recommendation letter for him so he could become a police officer. Rev. Hall did that, but Zimmerman never did become a police officer. And Hall thinks that disappointment may have played a part in the tragedy...
George Hall thinks the Florida shooting may have been Zimmerman's misguided and tragic attempt to prove he could be a cop anyway.
George Hall doesn't buy Zimmerman's explanation that it was self defense. "He is a big boy. He could've taken that younger boy on. Without a gun."
Neither Hall nor his wife ever saw anything that showed violence or racism from the Zimmerman when he grew up here.
"I feel for him, for I feel a lot more for the family of the other boy. They lost a child."
