Florida special prosecutor Angela Corey plans to announce as early as Wednesday afternoon that she is charging neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, according to a law enforcement official close to the investigation.
It was not immediately clear what charge Zimmerman will face.
Martin, 17 and unarmed, was shot and killed Feb. 26 by Zimmerman, who said he was acting in self-defense. Police in Sanford, Fla., where the shooting took place, did not charge Zimmerman, citing the state’s “stand your ground” law.
Corey told reporters Tuesday night that she would hold a news conference about the case within 72 hours. A news release from her office said the event will be held in Sanford or Jacksonville, Fla.
Benjamin Crump, who is representing the Martin family, said this week that Corey’s office had asked where Trayvon’s parents would be each day this week. They arrived Wednesday in Washington for a civil rights conference organized by the Rev. Al Sharpton, where they are scheduled to speak.
The announcement of a charge against Zimmerman would come a day after Zimmerman's attorneys withdrew from the case, citing their inability to contact Zimmerman.
Lawyers Craig Sonner and Hal Uhrig on Tuesday expressed concern about Zimmerman’s emotional and physical well-being, saying he has taken actions without consulting them. They also said they do not know where Zimmerman is.
“You can stop looking in Florida,” Uhrig told reporters. “Look much further away than that.”
Corey said Monday that she would not bring the case before a grand jury, which was expected to convene this week. She said her decision to forgo the grand jury should not be viewed as a factor in determining whether charges will be filed.
Corey has indicated in recent weeks that she might not need a grand jury to bring charges against Zimmerman.
The lawyers said they stand by their assertions that Zimmerman acted in self-defense when he killed the 17-year-old, who was unarmed, but they acknowledged that they formed their impressions without meeting Zimmerman.
**UPDATE**
(CNN) -- George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who says he was acting in self-defense when he fatally shot an unarmed teenager in Sanford, Florida, has been charged with second-degree murder, special prosecutor Angela Corey announced Wednesday.
Zimmerman was arrested on a warrant and was in the custody of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, his new attorney, Mark O'Mara, told CNN legal analyst Mark NeJame.
The charges were announced in Jacksonville by Corey, who has said her job was "to find out the full truth" about the February 26 incident in Sanford.
For weeks, Trayvon Martin's parents have demanded an arrest in their 17-year-old son's shooting death. His mother, Sybrina Fulton, said earlier Wednesday, "I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that justice will be served."
Zimmerman's claim of self-defense failed to quell an uproar about the decision by Sanford police not to initially charge him and about Florida's "stand your ground" law, which allows the use of deadly force by anyone who feels a reasonable threat of death or serious injury.

Last week we put up a poll asking how long you thought Kim Kardashian and Kanye West would be date before thier relationship ended. 42% of you didn't think the relationship would last six months. The next highest choice selected was Kanye would "put a ring on it" with 32% of the vote. If early reports are to be believed then 32% of the people surveyed might be onto something.
Though they have only been "officially" dating for a couple of weeks the Louis Vuitton Don is in love with Kim K. according to US Weekly.
"It's not a PR stunt," a source insisted. "They're perfect for each other. He thinks she's his Beyonce!"
Kanye must be looking forward to even move media scrutiny
Kim on the other hand is more used to her popularity being based on the person she dates. This shouldn't be that much of a change for her.

A couple of weeks ago Rihanna was spotted heading to a New York restaurant wearing a black mesh see-through shirt with no bra. There was no imagination needed to see the singer's exposed breasts, she even joked with photographers the next day by asking "did you see my t*tties?"
Apparently it's OK for her to be seen out in public showing off her bitties, but don't expect Riri to appear in Playboy anytime soon.
"My mother would kill me if I posed nude! My mother raised me with certain standards," Rihanna told Mondanite magazine.

The "We Found Love" singer does admit her sense of style can be on the daring side.
"My way probably won't work for most people, but the more I got naked the more comfortable I felt. I just have to face my fear," she said. "You always find something wrong, you always find something you're uncomfortable with. One thing turns into another and you get embarrassed and self-conscious about it - you feel like everybody can see what you see."
Do you think we will ever see Rihanna posing nude for a magazine like Playboy?

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) - Metro police say they've never encountered a man quite like William Todd, who they say in just nine hours managed to wreak havoc on Nashville.
"He was just on a terror. I've never seen anything like this before," said Sgt. Tony Blackburn.
Police said Todd traveled to Nashville on a Greyhound bus. During his nine-hour layover, officers said he committed more than 10 felonies.
Officers said Todd broke into the Slaughterhouse and stole a Taser, revolver and shotgun. Then, they said he shot the business up, stole a T-shirt and set the business on fire.
Police said Todd then found four people leaving a local bar. He held them at gunpoint, tased one, pistol whipped another, then took off with their cash and credit cards.
Five minutes later investigators said Todd carjacked a cab at gunpoint, then headed off to commit fraud, and used his newly acquired stolen credit cards to buy food.
"He was able to find the Walmart on Nolensville. He goes there and purchased $199 worth of items," said Blackburn.
Next stop: Hotel Indigo at 6 a.m.
Police said Todd broke into a law office there, ransacked the business then defecated on a desk, smearing feces on some of the framed law degrees.
He then knocked on several hotel room doors pretending to be a female housekeeper.
In one case, police said Todd stole $600 from a Canadian couple at gunpoint, crying the whole time.
Before taking off in his stolen cab once again, officers said Todd opted for a new look.
"We have him on video leaving the hotel with a shaved head," said Blackburn.
At 9 a.m., police said Todd crashed the stolen cab into a parking garage.
At 11:30 a.m., he hailed a new one and headed to Opryland, then held the cab driver at knifepoint.
Police finally caught up with Todd at noon. They said he was hiding on top of Opryland, submerged in a water-cooling vat with water up to his nose.
It was just a quick nine-hour pit stop in Nashville, but now Todd won't be headed home any time soon.
"He rode the Greyhound bus and had a layover, then left in blue lights. There definitely could be more charges. We hope that there are no more victims," said Blackburn.
Todd is now facing 11 felony charges. Officers said he's also wanted out of Kentucky.

This Mobb Deep story has taken another strange twist. As we previously reported, Havoc supposedly had his cell phone stolen by someone who went on to verbally attack Prodigy via Twitter.
Havoc told several media outlets Monday evening that everything was all good between him and Illuminati P.
"To all Mobb Deep fans: it’s business as usual! It’s Mobb Deep all day!!! My twitter account @THEREALHAVOC will be down until further notice. The only other real account is @PRODIGYMOBBDEEP. Ignore the rest. One!" Havoc said.
However, this morning Power 105's The Breakfast Club trio of Angela Yee, DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God played audio of a person said to be Havoc, and he is dissing his partner in rhyme similarly to what had been written on Twitter a day earlier.
"I don't have nothing against gay people or nothing like that, but I'm just saying look... Watch and then n*ggas in the jail come out from the woodwork and they're gonna tell you what the f*ck this n*gga was doing," says the voice on the audio. "He gay! I had to smack him like a month and a half ago at SXSW."
Yee then called up N.O.R.E. formerly of Capone-N-Noreaga. N.O.R.E. knows both Prodigy and Havoc from back in the day and he confirms that the voice on the tape is Havoc's.
It will be interesting to see if there is a response from the Mobb Deep camp sometime soon.
**UPDATE**
Havoc calls into The Breakfast Club to deny it is him on the audio.
Havoc continues to say that he lost his phone. The Breakfast Club says they have more audio including information about Mobb Deep meeting today to disband the group.
Props to RR for the audio
