Deputies: George Zimmerman charged with assault, battery after dispute at girlfriend’s home
APOPKA, Fla. — George Zimmerman was charged Monday with assault after deputies were called to the home where he lived with his girlfriend, who claimed he pointed a shotgun at her during an argument, authorities said.
Zimmerman pushed the woman out of the house and barricaded the door with furniture, Chief Deputy Dennis Lemma said at a news conference hours after the arrest. The girlfriend, Samantha Scheibe, provided deputies with a key to the home and they were able to push the door that had been barricaded.
Zimmerman was charged with domestic aggravated assault with a weapon, domestic battery and criminal mischief. His first appearance was scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. He will be housed in a single-person cell and guards will check on him hourly, Lemma added.
Zimmerman has had other brushes with the law since his acquittal.
Zimmerman and his estranged wife were involved in a domestic dispute in September just days after Shellie Zimmerman filed divorce papers, but police later said no charges were filed against either of them because of a lack of evidence.
Zimmerman has also been pulled over three times for traffic stops since his acquittal. He was ticketed for doing 60 mph in a 45 mph zone in Lake Mary in September and was given a warning by a state trooper along Interstate 95 for having a tag cover and windows that were too darkly tinted. He was also stopped near Dallas in July and was given a warning for speeding.
In 2005, Zimmerman had to take anger management courses after he was accused of attacking an undercover officer who was trying to arrest Zimmerman’s friend.
Later that year, Zimmerman’s former fiancee filed for a restraining order against him, alleging domestic ********. Zimmerman responded by requesting a restraining order against her. Both requests were granted. No criminal charges were filed.
As a lifelong *** owner and shooting enthusiast, this is exactly the type of individual that makes my skin crawl. When the Chuck Schumers, Diane Feinsteins and Michael Bloombergs of the world want to restrict the general population from private firearms ownership, people like George Zimmerman help them, by scaring the fuck out of anyone with half a brain. He is truly the best player that the other team has. If he can't get a bed sheet around his neck wjile he's in that cell, I've heard that it's possible to commit suicide by swallowing a sock. I'm not sure if that really works, but since he's going to be a thorn in society's side as long as he's alive, I encourage him to at least give it the old college try!
But the good news is, if he gets a conviction for domestic ******** out of this, his ability to legally own a firearm will vanish like a fart in a strong windstorm. :yesyes:
