(CNN) -- The Trayvon Martin family attorney says George Zimmerman should be back in jail because he failed to tell a judge he had $200,000 during a recent bond hearing.

"They tried to portray themselves as indigent that they did not have any money," said Benjamin Crump, a lawyer for Martin's family. "We think the court should revoke his bond immediately. And he should held accountable for misleading the court

Zimmerman, who is charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of unarmed 17-year-old Martin, has been given about $204,000 from supporters his lawyer Mark O'Mara said Thursday.

The donations Zimmerman received will be discussed at a court hearing Friday morning in Florida, O'Mara said.

O'Mara told CNN's "AC360" that Zimmerman told him Wednesday of the donations as they were trying to shut down his Internet presence to avoid concerns about possible impersonators and problems with his Twitter and Facebook accounts.

"He asked me what to do with his PayPal accounts, and I asked him what he was talking about," O'Mara told Anderson Cooper. "He said those were the accounts that had the money from the website he had. And there was about ... $204,000 that had come in to date."

O'Mara had said earlier this month that he believed Zimmerman had no money. "I think he's indigent for costs," he said, adding that Zimmerman's relatives had few assets.

Zimmerman, 28, was released Monday on $150,000 bail, 10% of which his family put up to secure his release. He is accused in the February 26 death of Martin, who was African-American.

Zimmerman said he shot Martin in self-defense.

Asked whether knowledge of the money might have made a difference to Judge Kenneth Lester Jr., who presided at Zimmerman's bond hearing, O'Mara said, "It might have."

O'Mara continued, "I'm certainly going to disclose it to the court tomorrow -- coincidentally, we have a hearing."

The hearing was originally scheduled to discuss issues about the unsealing of Zimmerman's criminal file, but the donations could overshadow that issue.

Crump said the Zimmerman's failure to reveal that he had the money shows that he is being dishonest.

"If his testimony at the bond hearing is any indication of what is to come than the lying has already begun," Crump said.

O'Mara said he was prepared to "deal with any fallout," but predicted Lester would not feel misled. "I told him what I knew at the time, which was exactly what I was aware of."

The money has been placed in a secure account since O'Mara learned about it, he said, adding, "Nobody's touching it until we figure out how to handle it."

But criminal defense attorney Mark Geragos said Lester might not react benignly. "I know a lot of judges who would remand the guy back into custody immediately," he said. "If you've got more money stashed in an account and you could just pay the bond and be gone, that gives a lot of judges concern."

Though the account has been closed, O'Mara said he intends to open a legal defense fund for Zimmerman. "I've had dozens, hundreds actually, of people wanting to donate," he said.

O'Mara, who said he charges $400 per hour for family law cases, estimated Zimmerman's defense costs could reach $1 million. "You can really go through a lot of money on a case like this, with the intensity of it," he said.

Although details of the shooting remain murky, it is known that Martin ventured out from the Sanford home of his father's fiancee and went to a nearby convenience store, where he bought a bag of candy and an iced tea. On his way back, he had a confrontation with Zimmerman, who shot him.

Zimmerman had called 911 to complain about a suspicious person in the neighborhood, according to authorities.

In the call, Zimmerman said he was following Martin after the teen started to run, prompting the dispatcher to tell him, "We don't need you to do that." Zimmerman pursued Martin anyway but then said he lost sight of him.

According to an Orlando Sentinel story later confirmed by Sanford police, Zimmerman told authorities that after he briefly lost track of Martin, the teen approached him. After the two exchanged words, Zimmerman said, he reached for his cell phone, and then Martin punched him in the nose. Zimmerman said Martin pinned him to the ground and began slamming his head onto the sidewalk, leading to the shooting.

Police have said Zimmerman was not immediately charged because there was no evidence to disprove his account that he'd acted in self-defense. A police report indicated he was bleeding from the nose and the back of his head.

James Murdoch testifies in phone-hacking inquiry - CNN International

London (CNN) -- James Murdoch, a top executive in his father Rupert Murdoch's media empire, Tuesday stood by his insistence that he knew little about the scale of phone hacking by people working for News Corp.'s British tabloids.

He was testifying before an independent British inquiry into journalistic ethics prompted by phone hacking at his defunct News of the World tabloid.

Leveson Inquiry lawyer Robert Jay pointed out that the private investigator at the center of the scandal, Clive Goodman, had said as far back as 2007 that the practice went beyond the single case for which Goodman and a journalist were sent to prison that year.

"I was not aware of that," Murdoch said.

James Murdoch has been hammered over the past year about what he knew about phone-hacking by people working for his newspapers. He has already been called twice to testify before British lawmakers and resigned from a number of top management positions at British subsidiaries of his father's media empire.

He has consistently denied knowing about the scale of phone hacking at the newspaper.

He told the Leveson Inquiry on Tuesday that he did not decide what goes into the company's British tabloids The Sun and the News of the World, relying on his editors to make the decisions.

Rupert Murdoch is scheduled to appear Wednesday and perhaps Thursday morning at the Leveson Inquiry.

Dozens of people have been arrested in criminal investigations into phone and e-mail hacking and police bribery, and police asked prosecutors last week to charge at least eight people.

The suspects include at least one journalist, a police officer and six other people, the Crown Prosecution Service said, declining to name them.

No charges have been filed yet, and the Crown Prosecution Service said it did not know when a decision would be made about charges.

The British government set up the Leveson Inquiry, the independent investigation that summoned the Murdochs, in the wake of the phone-hacking scandal. Two parliamentary committees also are looking into media conduct.

Murdoch, 39, resigned as chairman of British Sky Broadcasting earlier this month, saying: "I am determined that the interests of BSkyB should not be undermined by matters outside the scope of this company."

Rupert Murdoch testified before lawmakers in July alongside his son.

News Corp. shut down its British Sunday tabloid, The News of the World, last summer after public outrage at the scale of illegal eavesdropping its journalists did in search of stories.

The defunct newspaper has been accused of hacking the voice mail of crime victims, politicians, celebrities and veterans.

Police arrested three more people last week, including a journalist at The Sun newspaper, part of Murdoch's News Corp. media empire and Britain's best-selling daily tabloid.

London's Metropolitan Police said the arrests were the result of information provided to the force by News Corp.'s Management Standards Committee, an internal panel set up by the company to probe suspected misconduct.

"It relates to suspected payments to a public official and is not about seeking journalists to reveal confidential sources in relation to information that has been obtained legitimately," the police statement said of the information.

The British lawyer representing dozens of alleged News Corp. phone-hacking victims was in New York last week, exploring options for a U.S. case against the company.

Attorney Mark Lewis told CNN he is representing three or four new clients, one of whom is believed to be a U.S. citizen, who say their phones were hacked while they were on U.S. soil.

There are also many potential new clients, Lewis said.

"As I've been traveling here," he said, "I've been contacted by many people who've had, so they say, similar problems -- not just hacking, but maybe being trailed, or have fallen out with some American Murdoch News Corp. company, and then found themselves, as they would say, at the wrong end of investigations, the wrong end of information gathered."

Send us your images or video. Also, read this report in Arabic.

(CNN) -- International envoy Kofi Annan is expected to brief the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday, as reports of carnage in Syria mount despite the council's agreement to boost the number of monitors there.

Regime forces pounded Homs and Hama on Tuesday, an opposition group said, just days after U.N. monitors left those cities. At least 50 of the 80 deaths across Syria on Monday took place in Hama, said the Local Coordination Committees of Syria.

Farther south, tank artillery and mortar rounds rained on the city of Douma, near the capital of Damascus, said an opposition activist identified as Fateh for safety reasons.

Meanwhile, an intelligence officer was assassinated Tuesday morning in Damascus, said the opposition Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Only a handful of U.N. observers are in Syria, but the Security Council recently authorized sending up to 300 monitors for 90 days.

"It is our hope that the deployment of observers will help to stop the killing and consolidate the calm," said B. Lynn Pascoe, U.N. under-secretary-general for political affairs. "The objective, however, is clearly not to freeze the situation but to create the conditions for a serious and credible political process."

The monitors are tasked with observing a cease-fire imposed on April 12. The cease-fire is part of a six-point peace plan laid out by Annan and accepted by the Syrian government.

But the cessation of armed violence in Syria remains "incomplete," and human rights violations are still perpetrated with impunity, Pascoe told the Security Council on Monday.

International leaders, including U.S. President Barack Obama, are ratcheting up pressure on the Syrian regime.

"I have signed and executive order that authorizes new sanctions against the Syrian government and Iran and those who abet them for using technologies to monitor and track target citizens for violence," Obama said Monday. "... It's one more step that we can take toward the day that we know will come -- the end of the Assad regime."

In addition, European Union foreign ministers agreed to ban the export of goods and technology that might be used by Damascus to produce chemical or biological weapons.

The EU also agreed to ban export of luxury goods to Syria, according to a statement Monday by British Foreign Secretary William Hague.

"Despite the urgent need for Assad to end the violence immediately, he and his close supporters continue to lead comfortable lives," Hague said.

Though they agreed to beef up the observer mission, Russia and China, two permanent countries on the 15-member Security Council, have vetoed attempts to take tougher action against the Syrian regime.

U.N. Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin defended his country's position.

"As a matter of principle, we believe that the U.N. Security Council is not about regime change," Churkin told CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Monday. "We believe that ... if there is crisis in a country, the role of the international community should be to help the parties involved to find a political, peaceful way out of this crisis.

"And when we saw some of the resolutions -- which included sanctions -- we knew that those were resolutions which were heading in the direction of regime change by force, which would, in turn, lead only to much more bloodshed in Syria."

The Annan peace plan calls for the government and the opposition to end the violence, provide access for humanitarian groups, release detainees and start a political dialogue.

Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, expressed doubt that al-Assad's regime would follow through with Annan's plan.

"The regime's long track record is one of dependable deceit and deception," she said. "We will work to ensure there will be consequences should the Syrian regime continue to ignore this council's decisions, press ahead with its murderous rampage and flout the will of the international community."

On Saturday, Syrian U.N. Ambassador Bashar Jaafari said security forces will exercise the "utmost degree of restraint" but remain prepared to defend their national interests against terrorists.

Syria has consistently blamed "armed terrorist groups" for the violence wracking the country. Citing an unnamed source, the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency reported Tuesday that a terrorist group killed Lt. Col. Said Assi in the Daraa countryside. SANA did not say when the death occurred.

Reports of bloodshed dropped immediately after after the cease-fire deadline of April 12, but opposition activists have reported hundreds of deaths since then.

CNN cannot independently verify reports of violence and deaths, as the government has restricted access by international media.

Syria has been engulfed in violence since March 2011, when the government started started cracking down on demonstrators who were peacefully protesting the regime of al-Assad. The president's family has ruled Syria for 42 years.

The United Nations estimates at least 9,000 people have died since the protests began, while activist groups put the death toll at more than 11,000. Rice put the total at 10,000.
