It’s no secret that #Beyonce and #JayZ have played an intricate role in publicizing the story of #TrayvonMartin. Now, according to the Blast, the couple allegedly became the target of threats from George Zimmerman during the filming of the Trayvon Martin docuseries, “Rest In Power.”
In a sequence of text messages obtained by The Blast, Zimmerman can be seen stating that the Carters would “find themselves inside of a 13-foot gator.” Zimmerman also referred to Beyonce as a “broke whore” and called Jay-Z, who is a co-executive producer on the film a “b*tch.”

The messages were reportedly sent to private investigator Dennis Warren, who was hired to find details regarding the case of Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman was previously charged with stalking Warren after he reported that he received 21 phone calls, 38 texts, and seven voicemails from Zimmerman within a 2 hour period.
