Spike Lee Squashes The Beef With Florida Couple Over Zimmerman (DETAILS)

Posted April 1, 2012 by Evanka Williamson for Global Grind Staff

Spike Lee has buried the beef…but not with George Zimmerman.

After news broke about Trayvon Martin, the movie man took to his twitter and sent out a tweet of what he believed to be was the address of George Zimmerman, the killer of the young teen.

The address turned out to be incorrect and in fact the home of a very innocent elderly couple, who immediately found there home in much chaos after Lee's tweet .

But it looks like Lee has finally reached out to settle the disruption his tweet led to and even offered to compensate the couple for any damage that was done to their home.

The Los Angeles Times says:

The McClains have a son, William George Zimmerman, who is not related to the George Zimmerman who shot Martin and whose arrest is being sought by Martin’s family and civil rights supporters. “The McClains’ claim is fully resolved,” Matt Morgan, their attorney, said in an email. “Mr. Lee personally called them to give a very heartfelt apology. Further, he agreed to compensate them for their loss and the disruption to their lives.

It's good to hear that this debacle has come to end. Hopefully the McClains can live in peace now.
