George Zimmerman Reportedly Retweeted Photo of Trayvon Martin’s Body

There are reports this weekend that George Zimmerman recently retweeted something a Twitter user sent his way that included a photo of Trayvon Martin‘s body.

FreakOut Nation first flagged the tweet and Zimmerman’s RT of it, which you can see in the below screengrabs:

The tweet no longer appears on Zimmerman’s timeline––Addicting Info says enough people complained that Twitter took it down––and the user who posted it in the first place has already tweeted about the earlier reports:

Zimmerman has a pretty active Twitter presence and recently ripped President Obama in the wake of the WDBJ shooting, calling him an “ignorant baboon” and making a reference to the time the president said if he had a son he would look like Martin.
