George Zimmerman and his wife Shellie are some of the dumbest people I have ever seen. Their jailhouse coded talk wouldn’t fool my 2 year-old son. Simply dropping three zeros off every number isn’t going to throw the police off your trail. How do you pay off the American Express and Sam’s Club bills with $8.60? The whole reason they were talking in code was because they were aware that their phone conversations were being monitored. And then they went to the bail bond hearing and pretended that they didn’t know they had around 100,000 bucks in a PayPal account. So, now Shellie has been arrested and I’m sure new counts will be added to George’s charges.
Keep in mind, this tragedy probably wouldn’t have happened if Zimmerman wasn’t a dunce in the first place.
Hmm. Wonder if the judge will levy a big fine on them? Be true justice if all the money that racists motherfuckers have sent to this murderer was taken by fining them for lying, obstruction of justice, and perjury.
Sorry for the referring site but she committed a third-degree felony and faces a sentence of not more than five years in prison. He presumably will face the same charge. I have no idea what the typical sentence is in Florida. The fine is $5,000. Or, for both of them, $10,000.
I have this nightmare wherein George gets hammered for lying about the money racist assholes sent him as a reward for murdering a black kid, but gets acquitted of any charges for the murder itself. “These are your priorities, America. The Mayans were right.”
If they do add a perjury count to George’s charges it could wind up helping him. A jury will like lesser charges that are uncontroversial. Proving what happened during the fight beyond a reasonable doubt will be hard, and many jurors may be looking for a way to acquit without letting him off scot-free.
Great point. I wonder if it’s possible for the prosecutor to try that separately, in a case with him and his wife since they (allegedly) did that crime together.
I almost feel sorry for them. They are, as you say, stupid. It’s hard for me to have contempt for stupidity that pure.
It’s their defenders who deserve scorn, and from me they can get all they want, and then some.
I understand the feeling. I heard him on that 911 tape though and I hate smug rent-a-cop racists who think they are tough guys with a gun. He took a nice young man’s life for no damn reason. I don’t feel sorry for him. I worry that he’ll get away with it.
If he gets off, put me on record as hoping someone does unto him as he did unto others.
I hope the smug motherfucker can’t leave his house to go grocery shopping without worrying about a bullet to the back of his head. Seriously.
Stupid people in this country are standing in line to get licensed for whatever the fuck they do.
It’s a cottage industry.
it appears to me that young george has pretty much been a dumb fuck up all his life, and that, and as far as l’m aware, has never paid any significant price for any of it. it appears that all his prior indiscretions were conveniently covered up.
given that, and the rather high powered legal team that rushed to his defense after he was finally charged and arrested…after a rather extended period of time, l would add…doesn’t it seem strange that nobody is asking the question why did they think they could get away with such a lame scheme?
maybe he was counseled by someone to keep those funds secreted for his defense…perhaps even his father…and just fucked it up again?
Typical of cop wannabees that can’t pass the entrance exam.
the money is the smokescreen. this is about the SECOND PASSPORT.
My guess it’s the combination. $100k and a second passport? That guy was thinking of running. There’s a lot of places where that kind of money carefully spent (but we’re talking about the Zimmermans here) could last quite a while, or at least where you could live it up a little until the Feds catch up with you.
Think of it from Zimmerman’s perspective. He knows he’s really stepped in it now. He’s going to be convicted of something or another and serve time with inmates who have been subjected with his kind of racial profiling. He can never be sure if he would survive that kind of time. And if he does, he has the mark of Cain like Casey Anthony. People will shun him and he will always feel hunted in some way or another.
So running seems good right now.
