The Florida State Attorney's office has announced the wife of George Zimmerman - the defendant in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin - has been arrested on suspicion of perjury.

Her husband stands accused of second-degree murder after shooting the unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin dead, in what he says was self-defence, after claiming he had been attacked.

There have been numerous links showing the “alleged” perjury.

I know -- I'm the one who linked to them. How come you haven't read them???

she know enough to move around a great deal of money prior to the bail hearing.

She is not being charged with moving money but with perjury.

they have her cold on perjury.

Then point it out.

Zimmerman was present during her testimony and did not correct the record.

That is not his responsibility. He was not asked to and he is not required to. He can sit like a potted plant if he chooses. It's his Constitutional right.

They have shown that they are deceitful people.

Why??? For giving evasive answers like most people do in court where lawyers goes on fishing expeditions with their questions. It is the prosecution's job to ask the right questions, and keep asking, which they didn't do.

Zimmerman is on tape telling her to use some of the money to pay off all their bills.

Isn't that what you do with money -- pay bills. That is why people donated the money -- for their bills -- for their living expense bills and legal bills.

I would be embarrassed if I had contributed to this fund, finding out what he was using it to pay off debt, most likely incrued prior to the Martin incident.

Would you rather they not pay off their bills and be delinquent and file for bankruptcy???

If you wish to contemplate your legal navel thats fine with me, but I contend that you are wasting your time.

George Zimmerman almost certainly acted in self defense and should never have been placed in the situation he's currently in. That he has to defend himself from the government while worrying about a bounty on his head by outlaws is what should be investigated.

The prosecution is acting like the lawbreaker here.

Your argument is morally bankrupt. You are arguing that the ends justify the means.

You are right - the government has the moral high ground here.

They want to put Zimmerman away for murder 2, so naturally they jail him for "lying" about his net worth.

"For giving evasive answers like most people do in court?

Q: How much money is in that website right now? How much money as a result of that website was??

A: Currently, I do not know.

Q: Do you have an estimate as to how much money has already been obtained or collected?

A: I do not.

_______________________

As discussed previously, while Defendant was in custody in the Seminole County Jail, Defendant made telephone calls that were recorded.

Defendant : Take care of my account so you can log in.

Shelly Zimmerman: Yeah I know.

at approximately ten minutes into the call the following conversation took place regarding Defendant’s financial circumstances:

Defendant: You‘re going to take out $10 and keep it with you in cash, less than 10.

Shelly Zimmerman: Like $9

Defendant: Say about 10. I‘m wondering you have more than $10, right’?

Shelly Zimmerman: Not with me

Defendant: You don't have access to more than $10 in your account?

Shelly Zimmerman: I do

Defendant: I have access to

Defendant: In your account

Shelly Zimmerman: Yeah

)

Defendant: In my account do l have at least $100?

Shelly Zimmerman: No

Defendant: How close am I’?

Shelly Zimmerman: $8. $8.60

Defendant: Really? So total everything how much are we looking at’?

Shelly Zimmerman: Like $155.

You left out this:

"For giving evasive answers like most people do in court where lawyers go on fishing expeditions with their questions. It is the prosecution's job to ask the right questions, and keep asking, which they didn't do."

You post like the prosecutor indicts -- editing out what is inconvenient.

Where is the perjury in what you posted????

"I have to wonder if the Judge actually looked at the timeline of when donations were made and when Mrs or Mr Z actually logged into the acct. If you don’t open the paypal emails, the title line only tells you that you have a payment...not the amount of it. I would also be interested in how much was remitted by “echeck”, those take almost a week to clear. It is possible that they were not aware of the balance when they were in front of the judge."

A couple of things...
1. It appears George's brother was the only one with direct access to the account. Shelly Zimmerman stated as much on the stand and offered to ask him about the totals. Neither the Prosecution or the Judge were interested at that time.

2. The question is not so much about what was IN the Paypal account -those of us that have dealt with Paypal know that there is lag in funds availability while funds are verified etc..- it's what had been transfered, and available in the Zimmermans Credit Union accounts at the time of the bail hearing.

Even though the prosecutor edited the transcript for the judge? Revoking bond needs a diiferent burden of proof thn charging with perjury, it appers.

I don’t trust the “justice” system in this case.

Lets all forget this guy is being railroaded by corrupt, biased, racially and politically motivated government prosecutors and even the White House has influenced this nasty government witch hunt...

Suddenly.....This is all about their finances!!!

Lets check their back taxes too...

Go over their taxes with a fine tooth government comb!

Who else to they owe?

The government should pull all their financial records going back 20 years!

Zim and his wife will now pay!! They got um!
