SANFORD, Fla. (AP) -- Prosecutors and a lawyer for the neighborhood watch volunteer who fatally shot Trayvon Martin are wrangling over the money George Zimmerman received after he was charged with second-degree murder.

Zimmerman's attorney called an expert on finances to testify Friday at Zimmerman's bond hearing.

Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester revoked Zimmerman's $150,000 bond earlier this month when prosecutors told the judge Zimmerman and his wife misled the court about how much money they had during the April bond hearing.

Prosecutors said a website Zimmerman created for his legal defense had raised $135,000 at the time of his first bond hearing. Zimmerman and his wife did not mention the money then.
