The prosecutor said his girlfriend told them that she and Zimmerman were in the process of breaking up and that he had threatened to commit suicide.

He’s got a good resume that should qualify him to be an Obamacare navigator.

Nothing like screwing up your chance at a clean break and a new life, George! Yeesh. I’m done.

I don’t think she’s a natural blonde, Joe. And I know that’s not a “White Hispanic.”

Sounds like they’re treating him fairly- if ankle bracelets have become commonplace. Should send an officer with him to get his stuff though.

While he’s got time on his hands here’s some videos that would do him good to watch, Sam Kinnison...

It is what it is George.

I would caution against a long term commitment...

Guilty or not, George should get back in touch with his Catholic faith, start going to his local church, get involved with it’s singles/young adults group, get involved with a good Catholic woman with proper Catholic values, and try to live under the cross for the test of his life. BTW I’m a somewhat lapsed Protestant.

Samantha Scheibe and her mother Hope Mason had been shopping around information about Zimmerman that the media did not consider credible or newsworthy.

And they are still shopping it around without much success.

If he’s a good Catholic and his marriage was a church marriage, he should not be getting involved with another woman, Catholic or not. I don’t know if his divorce is final or not but if he was married in the church he would need an annulment to get married again.

Does this dummy realize he’s got the entire leftwing media establishment out to get him? Maybe he should go live on a mountaintop somewhere.

He is still married to his wife and was served with divorce papers from her Tuesday in jail before he bonded out.

“If he’s a good Catholic and his marriage was a church marriage, he should not be getting involved with another woman, Catholic or not. I don’t know if his divorce is final or not but if he was married in the church he would need an annulment to get married again.”

That is exactly the part that makes all of this unbelievable and points to all all being a set-up by agents in the media, the federal government and this woman who claims to be his girlfriend.

I doubt George would break his marriage vows and it is evident that his world is caving in on him as he is being vilified by the media and these women are conspiring against him.

While I don’t condone domestic violence, what seems certain to me is that George should have gone into therapy after his not guilty verdict. He was scared after all the death threats and the constant pounding by the media (I hate the media by the way). His name became a household name for no other reason than he dared to defend himself. I guess the race baiters and media would have been happy had TM just bashed his head into mush and put him in the graveyard. I can’t say how I would react to what he has gone through. It sounds so noble to say this and that sitting behind a computer, but I truly believe he needs help in dealing with killing someone and then being the hunted after his release from jail. The media and government wouldn’t let him live his life after the verdict. In many ways, I find this so sad and hate those who have done this to him. I guess I could understand it if he was a conservative or Republican - but he isn’t. However the race baiters needed a band wagon to jump on and they found one. Can any of us say how we would hold up or react under the same circumstances?
