Other notable moments in Zimmermans interview, seven months after the trial:
- He says he never realized that Martin was unarmed, but that Martin was clearly trying to grab the gun from him.
- He initially thought that his bullet had missed Martin and potentially struck a neighbors house.
- He expresses no regrets about the shooting.
- He has a debt of $2.5 million owed to his lawyers, Mark OMara and Don West. He has raised more than $300,000 from online donors and said he hopes to collect additional funds through a lawsuit hes filed against NBC News over an edited 911 call, which he alleges made him look racist because a question and answer were mixed.
- He says he hasn't collected welfare and will work as a cook if he has to. Hes living off his family for now.
- He blames sensationalized media coverage for making him notorious, saying people recognize him everywhere because of what the press did with the incident in 2012, in February.
