The complaint filed by Larry Klayman stems from research done by author Joel Gilbert for his 9/11/2019 book and documentary "The Trayvon Hoax"
The central allegation is that Trayvon's family and the prosecution conspired to present a false witness and suppress exculpatory evidence- swapping in an impostor half-sister of Trayvon's actual girlfriend to falsely claim to be his girlfriend, give false testimony against Zimmerman and then falsely claim Trayvon's cell phone was irrecoverably broken to prevent the defense from learning of the swap. Gilbert claims that from open-records requests on cell phone records and examining Martin's social media accounts, he found an abundance of evidence that establishes that Trayvon's girlfriend was actually the skinny and vivacious 16 year old Brittany Diamond Eugene, who was replaced by the mentally handicapped, half a foot taller and obese 18 year old Rachel Jeantel. A swap which could not possibly have been mistaken by any family members.

That changed March 19, 2012, when Crump recorded an audio interview in which Martin’s 16-year old girlfriend, “Diamond,” provided a contradictory tale based on her being on the phone with him at the time of the incident. The tape precipitated the arrest of Zimmerman on April 11, 2012.
Phone records show Eugene and Martin spent hours on the phone with each other on a daily basis and exchanged loving and sexual texts, the lawsuit says.
After the shooting, Martin’s girlfriend came to the home of Martin’s mother, Sybrina Fulton, and provided a short letter memorializing her knowledge as the person on the phone at the time of his death. The letter was signed Diamond Eugene. Fulton did not tell prosecutors or the defense about the letter for nearly a year.
The lawsuit says Crump pressured Eugene to provide the audio statement that supported a narrative of racism, but that she refused to do the same in court.
Prosecutors initially had no contact with Eugene except through Fulton, but on April 2, 2012, they insisted on meeting her, so Fulton led them to her residence, it says. They knocked on the door and were referred to a different house, where Jeantel answered and claimed to be Diamond Eugene.
“Defendant Eugene could in no way be mistaken for Defendant Jeantel, who was 2 years older, 5 inches taller, and about 120 pounds heavier than Defendant Eugene. Defendant Fulton was alarmed and immediately called Defendant Eugene, who tweeted at about that same time at 6:27 PM ‘Trayvon Martin Mom just called me’ and at 6:32 PM ‘She thought I was Trayvon Girlfriend, Asking Me Hella Questions,'” the lawsuit said, citing phone records and social media records.
Nevertheless, Fulton went back inside and sat next to Jeantel as she was interviewed, without telling prosecutors “what she knew, that Defendant Jeantel was not Defendant Eugene, that Defendant Jeantel was not Trayvon’s girlfriend, that Defendant Jeantel was not the girl she had met with in her home on March 19, had spoken with 7 times, had texted with some 30 times, had driven back to her home at 2648 Flamingo Drive on March 19,” it continued.
Jeantel was an 18-year-old ninth grader who read at a fourth-grade level, it says.
Martin’s parents both lied repeatedly to cover up the swap, the lawsuit says.
Prosecutor Bernie “de la Rionda ignored the repeated false statements by Defendant Jeantel that he both knew and should have known to be false, including those which contradicted Defendant Eugene’s phone records he had already obtained, and including Defendant Jeantel’s statement that she was 18, even though Defendant de la Rionda knew from Defendant Crump’s public statements that Defendant Eugene was 16,” it said, adding:
Almost every time Defendant Jeantel made a statement he knew to be false, Defendant de la Rionda asked the question again and again in different ways until Defendant Jeantel’s answer fit his narrative. By the end of the interview, Defendant Jeantel was emotionally exhausted and feeling guilty from her lying and told Defendant de la Rionda six times, almost shouting “I feel guilty” and “real guilty”. When asked why she felt “real guilty”, Defendant Jeantel then stated twice, shouting the second time “I ain’t know about it!””
To explain the name on the letter and the changing age of the girlfriend, Jeantel testified that she initially gave a “fake name” and “fake age” and lied about why she wasn’t at Martin’s funeral.
The difference in the voices is stark between the initial call Crump released and the testimony provided by Jeantel, who spoke in a deep, slow mumble.
She had been a star witness at the trial to try to establish Zimmerman's guilt;

Jeantel testified that she was on the phone with Martin during the incident and that they were on the phone together while Martin was at the 7-Eleven. The call was disconnected and Martin later called her back. Jeantel testified that during the second call, Martin said a man was watching him, but that she did not think it was a "big idea." Jeantel asked Martin how the man looked and he told her that he was "a creepy-ass cracker." Jeantel warned Martin to walk away because "it might be a rapist." Martin, she said, told her that the "nigga is still following me"[156] so he was going to try to "lose him" and get back to the home where he was staying. As Jeantel remained on the phone with Martin, he said, "the nigga is behind me." The man who was allegedly following him reappeared and Martin said, "Why are you following me for," and then Jeantel heard a hard breathed man come and say "What are you doing around here?" Jeantel testified that she said "Trayvon, Trayvon" and she "started to hear a little bit of Trayvon saying, get off, get off." Jeantel then said she heard Martin's phone headset fall and Martin say "get off." The phone went dead and Jeantel says she didn't speak to Martin again. Jeantel also testified that she believes the screams heard on the 911 call were Martin's, because "Trayvon has kind of a baby voice."
They also allege that the suppressed cell phone had texts that would have proved material to establishing Trayvon's history of violence;

Zimmerman’s lawyer filed the lawsuit in state court in Florida and it also targets the state of Florida and its prosecutors, who allegedly initially falsely told the defense that Martin’s cellphone was too damaged to extract its data, when it actually contained evidence damaging to their case. That includes not only evidence of the witness swap, but also texts showing Martin previously discussing gun sales and bragging of beating up a “snitch” and saying, “He aint bleed nuff 4 me, only his nosez.” Prosecutors also ran out the clock by repeatedly ignoring the defense’s entitlement to exculpatory evidence, the suit says.
For those of us who stopped paying attention to Zimmerman and Klayman back in 2013, this is a pretty, uh, interesting twist. I don't think almost anyone noticed the claims back in september over a false witness, but this lawsuit is certainly trending.
At the same time, it could all be a bunch of hooey
