Family's anger after killer granted bail

The family of Trayvon Martin have reacted angrily to news that his killer has been granted bail.

George Zimmerman is facing trial for second-degree murder after shooting the black unarmed teenager dead in Florida, in what he claims was self-defence.

The lawyer for Trayvon's family, Benjamin Crump, said 'they were devastated' that Zimmerman might soon be out of jail, after saying for the first time, that he was sorry for their loss.

And it was devastating that he got to give a self-serving apology to help him get a bond.

They were very outraged at that.
