jany winetraub is a defense attorney and phyllis kotay is a law professor at florida university and a can you walk me through what george zimmerman went through last night from the moment he was brought into that jail? >> sure. he was probably brought in to seminole county jail, rebooked, refingerprinted, photographed, taken upstairs, strip searched, cavity searched, given clothes, shower, a uniform. probably orange for isolation. i'm sure he's being kept in solitary, which is a 23 1/2 hour isolation cell. he doesn't get meals with anyone else. he will get out for 30 minutes with a guard outside. and that's where he is. he's try iing to adjust. >> not a pleasant environment. >> six by ten cell. >> and also just emotionally so distressful as so many attorneys will say there's nothing worse than that first few moments when you realize where you are. phyllis, let me jump over to you about what comes next this afternoon. clearly, this may not be the place that george zimmerman wants to stay. it's up to his attorney at this point. because there's no bond available right now. it's up to his

janie weintraub is joining us and phyllis is a former state attorney and judge.ank you for having me. >> i'll start with jane. do you think this is going to the grand jury? >> i absolutely think it will. >> why? >> the reason i think that is first of all, there is a special prosecutor handling the case and in any hot potato or hot profile case, normally the cases are given to the community to make a decision so that if there is a backlash these are elected officials, the prosecutors, the state attorney herself and that way she won't suffer the back lack politically. any first-degree murder case has to be indicted by a grand jury and i don't see why if the case goes forward it wouldn't be charged as a first-degree murder. >> phyllis, do you agree? do you think the grand jury will see this? >> absolutely in terms of what would happen on the case. i think that it would be suicide, political suicide for a case of this magnitude not to go to the grand jury and especially given the fact that as a first-degree murder or if it's charged as a first-degree murder it will c

jany weintraub is a criminal defense attorney in florida.smart legal cookie, i might add. t thank you for joining me. "new york post" profiling how much this is a cross-country story right now. the allegations that came out in this affidavit are quite serious, and they're very specific. everybody has to realize these are allegations. is there anything that leads you to think that the prosecutor has some additional evidence that we don't know about yet? >> well, they definitely have additional evidence. in the autopsy report, it's going to be very crucial to both sides to find out how close they were when that gun went off, and that will be identified through forensic examinations. >> let me read for you one thing that really -- there are a lot of things that stood out in this affidavit. one in particular that stood out was a quote that said, "later while talking about martin, zimmerman stated, these blank holes, they always get away. and also said these f'ing punks." that is significant for a couple of reasons. and i want to touch on it this

here to talk more about this is jany, a criminal defense attorney in florida.> curious whether you know judge lester and given what you perhaps know about him or have read about him, how do you think that he is going to rule in this? >> well, judge lester is known to be a very tough judge. he's been there for over 15 years. most judges are not inclined to give bond in murder cases and i don't expect judge lester to vary from that. his wife is a homicide prosecutor. i don't expect to see a bond in this case, although, i think, i would argue for one and i think there probably should be one. >> do you think that we'll hear any new evidence today? >> it's a tough call. i mean the prosecutor will have to weigh whether or not she wants to put her lead detective on the witness stand and subject the lead detective to cross-examination or submit the probable cause affidavit and have the lead detective there so mr. o-mara will be able to cross examine some of it. she may have mrs. martin come into the courtroom and ask her to identify the voice of trayvon, just for the e
