Jay-Z executive produces a docuseries about Trayvon Martin. It pissed off George Zimmerman. |
Jay-Z is doing a docuseries on the life of Trayvon Martin and it has irates the man who shot and killed him in 2012.
The media mogul will team up with Lisa Bloom to do the series called Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story.
The docuseries will be produced by the Weinstein group. The media mogul warned the company if they don't strip Harvey and Bob Weinstein name off the project, he will find a better distributor.
The story details what happened in Febraury 2012, when the shooter, George Zimmerman confronted Martin at the gated community. It will talk to Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin as well as others who were affected by the shooting.
Zimmerman was found not guilty in the death of Martin in July 2013. He claimed he used the Florida "Stand Your Ground" defense.
Zimmerman had the backing of conservatives. One notable agitator was Sean "Softball" Hannity, the country's most annoying, condescending, and downright deplorable media personality.
Zimmerman was none too happy about the docuseries. He said that if Jay-Z or his allies confront him, he will put the work in them.
“I know how to handle people who fuck with me. I have since February 2012. [If] anyone who fucks with my parents, [they] will be fed to an alligator.”
So any thoughts to this matter?
