[Vision2020] Zimm's lawyer to ask Florida to pay up to $300, 000 in legal costs

[Tom Hansen]

The "reimbursement" is not for attorney costs, as the attorneys (as hig-priced as they my be), donated their time and efforts pro bono.  

The reimbursement is for costs related to witness availability and other defense material costs incurred by the defendant. 

Seeya 'round town, Moscow, because . . .

But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
