Zimmerman's website raised $200,000 in donations - KPLC 7 News, Lake Charles, Louisiana

(RNN) - Attorney Mark O'Mara is expected to explain in court how neither he, nor his client's family knew about the $200,000 raised by George Zimmerman's website.

In a hearing scheduled Friday, the questions of possible perjury could take center stage as O'Mara is expected to explain the funds and why they were not revealed in the previous bond hearing.

The website set up by the accused killer of Trayvon Martin raised around $200,000 in donations before it was shut down.

George Zimmerman's attorney, Mark O'Mara, told CNN's Anderson Cooper that he found out about the money when trying to shut down "his full internet presence because of some impersonators and other problems with Twitter and Facebook."

"He asked me what to do with his PayPal accounts. And I asked him what he was talking about. And he said those were the accounts that had the money from the website he had, and that there was about $200,000, $204,000 that had come in to date," O'Mara said.

Zimmerman walked out of a Seminole County, FL jail on $150,000 bond around midnight Monday.

O'Mara said bail may have been higher had the judge known about the money and that he plans to inform him at a scheduled Friday hearing.

"I don't think Judge [Kenneth] Lester will feel mislead. I told him what I knew at the time, which is exactly what I was aware of," he said. "As soon as I became aware of more money, we dealt with it affirmatively, put it into an account where it is protected so that it is now secure."

"I'm not touching it, nobody's touching it until we figure out how to handle it."

The site, www.therealgeorgezimmerman.com, was taken down earlier this week. The website went live on April 10, asking for help for Zimmerman's legal defense.

"I have created a PayPal account solely linked on this website as I would like to provide an avenue to thank my supporters personally and ensure that any funds provided are used only for living expenses and legal defense, in lieu of my forced inability to maintain employment. I will also personally, maintain accountability of all funds received," the site read.

"If his testimony at the bond hearing is any indication of what is to come, then the lying has already begun," Crump said.

"They tried to portray themselves as indigent that they did not have any money," said Crump. "We think the court should revoke his bond immediately, and he should be held accountable for misleading the court."

Zimmerman is charged with second degree murder in the death of Martin, 17.

Prosecutors allege Zimmerman "profiled" and followed Martin, according to the affidavit. They say he confronted Martin and "a struggle ensued" before Zimmerman shot the teen in the chest.

Zimmerman claims he shot Martin in self defense after the teen confronted him and the two got into a scuffle.
