It has been reported that George Zimmerman -- the neighbourhood watch volunteer who shot and killed an unarmed teenager in Florida -- is to be charged by police two months after the incident .

Mr Zimmerman admits he shot 17 year old Trayvon Martin -- but says it was in self-defence.

Earlier today - Trayvon's mother Sybrina Fulton spoke at a news conference in Florida:

"For the last 44 days it has been a nightmare, and this is coming from a mothers perspective."

"I have been up and down as if I was on a rollercoaster"
