Angela Corey, the special prosecutor who tried George Zimmerman, is the target of the former neighborhood watch leader's most recent painting.

Zimmerman's brother, Robert Zimmerman Jr., tweeted the photo Wednesday evening, saying details of the painting's sale would be released on Thursday.

Corey, the northeast Florida state's attorney, charged George Zimmerman with second-degree murder. The painting — titled "Angie" — uses shades of red and orange to depict her holding her thumb and fingers together. The text on the piece reads, "I have this much respect for the American judicial system."

Zimmerman sold another painting on eBay last month, with a winning bid of $100,099.99.

Zimmerman was acquitted in July in the 2012 shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman's attorneys successfully argued that he shot Martin in self-defense.
