George Zimmerman wants a new judge

George Zimmerman, the man who killed Trayvon Martin, asked for a new judge on Friday.

Lawyers for Zimmerman accused Judge Kenneth Lester of being biased and giving 'a personal opinion' during a July 5 bond hearing.

"In doing so, the court has created a reasonable fear in Mr. Zimmerman that this court is biased against him and because of this prejudice he cannot receive a fair and impartial trail or hearing by this court," the statement said.

Zimmerman's legal team requested a new judge in April after finding that the presiding judge's husband was asked to join his defense team.
