Interesting information about the paypal account.

Just glancing at that theconservativetreehouse.com posting, it makes a few incorrect assumptions about the law. Assets you have acquired via gift are money you control. You can't pretend it isn't "yours." There is nothing illegal in Lester's inquiry.

That said, I think it's prudent to hang fire on condemning Zimmerman's wife. De la Rionda is making the "lie" accusation without adequate justification, and that might bite him in the ass. It won't be the first time he's made up an accusation, on half of the evidence.

I can think of a few "innocent" reasons Shelly Zimmerman answered the way she did; in addition to attempting to hide the money to keep the bail low.

Interesting information about the paypal account.

Zimmerman and his wife had four recorded conversations about the money. During two of the conversations Mrs. Zimmerman was at their Credit Union and George spoke directly with bank officials.

I assume they were trying to transfer the Paypal money into multiple Credit Union accounts. And I assume they were successful since the Credit Union statements dated 4/19, the day before the bond hearing, showed they had access to over $135,000 in cash.

Great article about the PayPal account. Judge Lester should read it before the hearing tomorrow or whenever its scheduled.
