Dollars in money.

Somewhere between there and 200000 dollars is what Zimmerman received in donations over the Internet.

And the prosecution says he did not disclose that.

At his bond hearing.

Told the judge that he was destitute and had no way to pay for the bond and had to mortgage his parents' home which is why the judge is now placed him back in custody.

He's got 48 hours to present himself and it's likely to stir passions in a case is already stirred passions across the US and internationally.

As you point out there basically two factors involved what has upset the judge in this case first -- to do with money.

Apparently up to 200000.

Dollars Herman had control over those -- donations made on -- to his defense fund.
