The judge who was originally assigned the case was Circuit Judge Jessica Recksiedler, one of four possible judges to oversee what Zimmerman's attorneys and the state expect to be a trial process that could last well into 2013.
Zimmerman's attorney Mark O'Mara asked that Recksiedler step aside because she is married to an attorney who works in the same law firm as Mark NeJame, a legal analyst for CNN, who has been outspoken about the case.
The second judge picked to preside over the controversial case also stepped aside because of a conflict of interest, sources told ABC News.
The court then named Judge Lester to handle the case.

It's the latest in a series of twists in the case which began with the original prosecutor, Norman Wolfinger, recusing himself. That was followed by weeks in which Zimmerman was in hiding which ended in a bizarre announcement the attorneys he had hired announced that Zimmerman had left them.
Zimmerman, who is now represented by Mark O'Mara, is facing second degree murder charges, which could carry a life sentence for the 28 year old. O'Mara filed a motion on Monday for Judge Recksiedler's removal.

It is good to see that you are keeping an open mind about the case before any of the evidence has even been presented.

The evidence we have now
says an innocent man is
sitting in jail over public opinion...
The judge's conflict of interest had a big MOUTH
about this case which was in treyvons favor ONLY...
If the judges conflict of interest had not been
a BIAS piece of reeses when being very vocal
on zimmermans guilty in treyvons so innocent favor this young
hot intelligent judge might of just had landed the case
of a life time... to bad for their ignorant conflict of interest
I am sure it rubbed off on her listening to that ignorant hate
speech against zimmerman.. The second judge appointed had
to be thrown out also...Fair trial, how about we just give you guys
zimmermans head on a platter would that make you happy?edit on 18-4-2012 by popsmayhem because: (no reason given)

Please forgive me if I provide a brief situation analysis. I've followed along, but not for all 251 pages I'm not a super human, such as Pops believes Zimmerman to be. This blind ignorance from the OP has caused me to lose faith in human morality, part of the reason is that there are a ton of cheerleaders on the sidelines rooting for him.
A sad state of off affairs we exist in when such a normal even can dictate the discussion on a site like ATS. I certainly agree that this is a serious issue that deserves attention, but this is just overkill. I've seen good points on both sides, and have seen some great debate. Op though, is a fanatical maniac who scours the depths of ATS looking for Zimmerman so he can spam his "JUSTICE FOR ZIMMERMAN!" thread
I mean really, give it up pops. Let the evidence decide the outcome. I've mentioned several points to you on this thread only to have you refuse any type of response, other than "I'm going to tell the mods on you".
You only answer to, and cater to your agenda. You are a sick individual if you believe this unarmed kid "had it coming to him".
I know we have the idiots like Al Sharpton, Jessee Jackson, (the fake Black Panthers) involving themselves into this media frenzy, but I assure you my deluded friend that you are one of the main victims of this farce we are being subjected to on a daily basis.
