No, they did not ask for bail today. He's in prison now. I heard he was being kept apart from other prisoners in his own cell for protection.

There appears to be only three defenses against 2nd degree murder, and self-defense is the only one Zimmerman appears to have. And considering Zimmerman followed and stalked Trayvon while carrying a loaded gun, self-defense doesn't look good.
