A judge in Sanford, Florida says lawyers for neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman may subpoena school and social media records of Trayvon Martin. NPR's Greg Allen reports from Miami Zimmerman's lawyers say the records may help support their client's claim that when he shot and killed Martin, he was acting in self-defense.  
 
This was Circut Judge Debra Nelson first hearing in the case. She recently took over after Zimmerman's lawyers had the previous judge removed. Judge Nelson ruled that Zimmerman was entitled to subpoena Trayvon Martin's school disciplinary records, also with Facebook and Twitter accounts. Zimmerman's lawyer  Mark O'Mara says the records may provide information about Martin's past behavior that could be relevant to the events of February 26th. The judge also said prosecutors should have access to George Zimmerman's medical records. But those records and Trayvon Martin's school records will not be made public. Martin's mother and father attended the hearing and condemned Zimmerman's efforts to get access to their son's school and social media records, saying it's part of the strategy to blame the victim.
