CNN Legal Analyst Mark Nejame has shared an exclusive George Zimmerman family photo that suggests he has African American heritage. 

STORY: Discovery! Defense Gets New Evidence In Zimmerman Case

NeJame’s evidence is a black-and-white picture of a family of three, including a dark-skinned man he claims was Zimmerman’s great-grandfather holding Zimmerman’s mother as a baby.

Speaking to News 13 Friday, NeJame said the photo was just one piece among many that led him to change his mind about whether Zimmerman was racially profiling Trayvon Martin saying:

“If President Obama says his son would have looked like Trayvon Martin, then if you look at these pictures, his grandparents and great-grandparents would have looked like George Zimmerman’s grandparents and great-grandparents,” NeJame said during an appearance Thursday on CNN’s “Piers Morgan Tonight.”

Before Zimmerman was arrested, President Barack Obama briefly commented on the case, calling the Trayvon Martin’s death a tragedy, and adding that if he had a son, he might have looked like Martin.

It doesn’t matter what color Zimmerman’s family is, it doesn’t change anything, he still shot an unarmed teenager because he looked suspicious.
