News The George Zimmerman circus returns

[brassmonkey]

Whenever the following words appear in a story ? George Zimmerman, arrested, domestic violence, weapons ? I?m overcome with ?shock and oh, brother.? It?s a ?not again!? shock that the killer of Trayvon Martin found himself posing for yet another mug shot. The ?Oh, brother? pretty much explains itself when accompanied by an eye roll because anyone loosely paying attention to the circus that is Zimmerman?s life saw this coming by a mile. The ?this? this time is the Friday arrest of Zimmerman. The lede of the Orlando Sentinel story sums it all up.

After allegedly throwing a bottle of wine at his girlfriend Monday, George Zimmerman spent 14 hours in jail this weekend and now faces aggravated assault charges and must surrender all his firearms, officials said.

Authorities found out what happened on Monday when they pulled over Zimmerman?s unidentified girlfriend for a routine traffic stop. According to a statement from Lake Mary (Fla.) Police spokeswoman Officer Bianca Gillett, ?The driver stated she was just involved in a domestic altercation with George Zimmerman.? Zimmerman is out on bond. He?ll appear in court on Feb. 17. He must surrender his firearms on Tuesday.

What makes this time different from all the others is that there is no dramatic 911 call to dissect. In September 2013, two months after Zimmerman was acquitted of second-degree murder for killing the unarmed Trayvon with a single gunshot in the chest nearly three years ago, his now-ex-wife Shellie called the cops on him. She told the 911 dispatcher that Zimmerman was ?just threatening all of us with his firearm? and had punched her father in the nose. Zimmerman wasn?t arrested because neither Shellie nor her father pressed charges against him ? a decision Shellie told Katie Couric was motivated by her decision to keep herself out of jail.

Then, two months after that run-in, the police were called in November 2013 by Zimmerman?s girlfriend Samantha Scheibe. While on the line with 911, Scheibe yelled at Zimmerman, ?You just broke my glass table, you just broke my sunglasses, and you put your gun in my f?? face, and told me to get the f? out!? She later tells the dispatcher, ?He just pushed me out of my house and locked me out!?

Evidence of Zimmerman?s messy life were there long before his fatal encounter with Trayvon. Here?s how I catalogued what we already knew at the time of his second-degree murder trial.
