Why Crump had it placed in the file in the first place remains a mystery. He did not return phone calls from the Orlando Sentinel.
But his clients, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, were deposed last month by Zimmerman’s attorneys and were likely asked about the settlement.
In an interview last month, when asked if the settlement was a specific figure between $1 million and $2 million, Crump would not say.
“I have no comment on the subject,” he said. “I know you didn’t get that from me.”
Trayvon’s parents did not sue the homeowner’s association. They settled before their wrongful death claim reached that point.
The association was a target because Zimmerman had organized a Neighborhood Watch group on its behalf, saying there had been a series of break-ins in his Sanford townhome community.
