jay-z was threatened by george zimmerman last weekend for his role in the upcoming documentary of trayvon martin. zimmerman, a self-proclaimed "neighborhood watchman" shot and killed martin - an unarmed black male teen - february 26, 2012 in florida, and was acquitted of manslaughter charges the following year.
entertainment website blast reports zimmerman claims his family was mistreated by the camera and production crew. zimmerman said they made unannounced visits to the homes of his parents, and an uncle in florida. he said jay-z and executive producer michael gesparro "harassed" his family.
on saturday, zimmerman said, "i know how to handle people who f--- with me. i have since february 2012." zimmerman benefited from the controversial "stand your ground" laws in florida, and his trial polarized americans with the verdict. he holds jay-z and gesparro responsible, and "anyone who ----s with my parents will be fed to an alligator."
zimmerman, 34, complained over money he clams has been paid to his ex-wife for her participation in the documentary. he also said his family members and parents have not been paid by producers for their cooperation in the documentary.
the six-part docuseries titled "rest in power: the trayvon martin story," is based on the book, "suspicion nation," by attorney lisa bloom. the series will chronicle the life of martin, who was on his way home after stopping at a local store to get a bag of skittles.
jay-z didn't comment, but snoop dogg immediately defended him on instagram. "if one hair on jay's hair is touched that's when the revolution will b televised. we one, and to thank the system, let the b---- *ss mutha----- get away with murder try it again. trayvon martin gone but not forgotten."
