Spike Lee wants justice for Trayvon Martin and he got so hyped up that he tweeted George Zimmerman‘s address.

The only problem, he has the wrong address and instead sent crowds of people to the home of the McClains. A terrible mistake and now the “Do The Right Thing” director is trying to do the right thing and has issued an apology.
“I Deeply Apologize To The McClain Family For Retweeting Their Address,” Lee tweeted. “It Was A Mistake. Please Leave The McClain’s In Peace. Justice In Court”
Zimmerman shot and killed an unarmed 17 year old Trayvon Martin as he was coming home from the store, after buying a bag of skittles and an iced tea.

As far as the McClains, the family had to move out of their house out of fear for their lives.
“We got out of the house. It is just too scary,” Elaine McClain told HLN’s Jane Velez-Mitchell on Wednesday before the Lee apology. “We’ve got to quit the hatred and the vengeance and start looking on the inside of people and quit looking on the outside of people. It is just sad the reactions that have been going on.”
She told CNN Orlando affiliate WKMG that her youngest son has the last name of Zimmerman and the middle name George.
A giant mistake but at least Spike has apologized.
