that's what ben crump says. just enough knowledge to establish vay von was the attacker von was in a suspicious area he was reaching in his waist band. he tried to establish him as a stalker because that's the only way he could use the stand your ground defense. >> what you don't see you don't hear anything is george zimmerman ever saying this is a black guy. race played no part. he said suspicious. he didn't use black didn't use a pejorative didn't say african american. there was no reference to the race of the victim. >> he does in fact say the officer asked him to identify this person he does say that he is a black personer you but he never identifies himself as neighborhood watch captain. he never says to police that he had a gun. >> he asked him is he black, white or piss panic? >> he did. >> we know trayvon martin is the victim, but i think this is a powerful document for self defense. >> for zimmerman, yes, it is. but i think you are exactly right in saying that he knew enough when he had that initial con

o'mara and benjamin crump. have you spoken to george zimmerman since today's hearing? >> yes, i have. >> what was his response? >> you know, frustrated because he's -- he now has to come out of the hiding he's in. he understands the court's ruling. i have had a good conversation with him about i. -- it. we're going to have a conversation with the judge to explain it away and hopefully that will be worthwhile and get back out on bond. >> does he admit that he tried to mislead the court or does he say he tried to mislead the court? >> well, there's no question that they knew about the money. actually, in a previous correspondence to the judge we had acknowledged that. the question of whether or not they presented it properly i think it was somewhat misleading to the court. i have gone over that with george. i think he needs to realize we're still talking about a 28-year-old who, you know, is being charged with a crime he does not believe he committed and his whole life has been turned upside down. so i think it needs to be kept in context. >> the prosecutor though is say

ronality crump is a guy man and police sergeant. his supervisor verbally harassed him because he is gay, comparing him to one of the women in the department, minus the heels and other derogatory comments. when crump filed a complaint, he was transferred from a prestigious position to a less favorable one. we have decades of social science research that tell us those stories are repeated in workplaces across america. in 2008, general social survey found 42% of lesbian, gay and bisexual people had experienced employment discrimination because of their sexual orientation at some point in their lives, and 27% actually experienced that in the last five years. so it's common and recent. in the largest survey of transgender people to date, 47% of correspondents experienced discrimination in hiring, promotion or job retention. in 2008, my colleagues and i studied the complaints filed by lgbt people in the states that outlaw sexual orientation discrimination. i'll say the numbers of complaints were actually we adjusted those counts to take i

crump. let's dig deeper on the implications of this dramatic day in court. we have mark and sunny hostin. as a criminal defense attorney, mark, i'm curious to get your knowledge of what happened. benjamin crump says this is the most important ruling because it totally destroys zimmerman's credibility about what happened the night of the shooting? >> i think -- i don't think that it totally damages his credibility. is it bad? yes. there's no sugar coating of it. i think you might remember, anderson, we talked about this the night you led off, i think you were the one who reported first about the money that was in that account, and i said at the time. i know a lot of judges that would have remanded him into custody right there and then. so this judge gave him quite a bit of string to play out before remanding him into custody. and i would tend to agree with mr. crump. i that i it will, if he takes the stand, this is something especially because it dealt with this judge in this courtroom, that'

crump says there's something that he left out in that statement. take a listen. >> listen to it for yourself in that 911 tape, why he said he got out of that car. he says, "he's getting away," and then he says, you know, he pursues him. it's one of those things where the 911 operator said, are you pursuing him, and he says, yes, and they say, we don't need you to do that. so he profiled and pursued trayvon martin. and he didn't put that -- he conveniently left that out of the written statement. and this is his written statement on the night. >> it's a roller-coaster. you know, you have your good days and your bad days. certainly as his parents, you know, we have bad days, because we're dealing with the loss of our son. >> tracy martin there. the family invited to be part of a panel discussion here in new orleans, hosted by the national association of black journalists, talking specifically about this case, brooke. >> george howell, thank you. i want to just go back to cnn contributor mark nejame here. mark, final question, and i know we said at the

samuel crump bin initiated quite a statewide campaign to promote the idea of sanitation as well as child welfare. he had some pretty interesting campaigns. one was called swat the fly because people needed to be aware of how germs were carried. and he had another one called don't spit on the sidewalk. in many cities, they actually imprinted that slogan on various paving bricks and put them on the sidewalks to remind people. i found news articles here in wichita about campaigns on our streetcars that conductors were to watch for people spitting in the streetcars. this was -- it sounds kind of silly to us now, but it was a very serious campaign to educate people. the fresh air baby camp was in operation from 1920 in this building until 1926. at that time, wesley hospital had built a brand new modern facility further away in the city. so they were able to create an infant ward. and the board of directors for the baby camp solicited the hospital and were able to move the camp program into the hospital in a special ward where they could operate it year round. and so they no longer needed this
