Ugh.
I maintain my objection to the court nosing in their finances. Bail should not be based on how much money the prisoner has to flee with or can afford to pay.
Four days before she testified to having no knowledge of the funds, the affidavit says, Shellie Zimmerman began a series of transfers into her account totaling $74,000 from April 16 to April 19. The affidavit says about $47,000 more was transferred from George Zimmerman's account to his sister's. Shellie Zimmerman withdrew about $18,000 more in cash, prosecutors say. Prosecutors say the Zimmermans used a rudimentary "code" to discuss the money in recorded jailhouse phone calls referring to $100,000, for example, as "$100." At least two of the calls, the state alleges, were made while Shellie Zimmerman and her husband's sister were at a local credit union making the transactions.
