George Zimmerman has yet to leave the spotlight.
Zimmerman, who was acquitted for killing Trayvon Martin last year, was interviewed by CNN anchor Chris Cuomo.
The controversial interview has been receiving a lot of negative attention.
According to opposingviews.com, during the interview, Zimmerman states, "I certainly was a victim when I was having my head bashed into the concrete and my nose broken and beaten, I wouldn't say I was not a victim."
Zimmerman continued that he was a "scapegoat for the government, the President, the attorney general."
When Cuomo asked why they would be scapegoating him, Zimmerman explained, "I don't like others speaking for me, so I try to give other people the benefit and not speak for them. I don't know what they're thinking or why they're thinking it, all I know is that is what they're doing. I don't know what agenda they have."
Opposingviews.com has reported that during a separate interview with Univision on Sunday night, George Zimmerman stated that he was homeless, broke and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
His legal woes have continued as he owes $2.5 million to his attorneys and is reportedly suing NBC News for airing an edited version of his 9-1-1 call from the Martin shooting.
Zimmerman has raised more than $300,000 through donations to his website and is getting financial help from his family.
CNN as well as Chris Cuomo has been receiving backlash for interviewing Zimmerman in the first place.
According to GlobalGrind, twitter has been exploding with responses to the CNN interview.
Sarafeminista, a twitter user, tweeted "@ChrisCuomo Chris, continuing to give this man airtime only helps him increase his "Celebrity" status. Imagine if Trayvon was your son."
Another use, Lilith, stated "@ChrisCuomo I will not watch, read or in anyway support @CNN due to attempts to keep Trayvon Martin's killer in the public eye."
Anchor Chris Cuomon has responded to the backlash by stating, "It's important to hear form the man at the center of it. It was provocative. He gave us a lot of time. He wanted to deal with everything."
