@hawkeye10,
Quote:LOL, as if you are capable of not trashing a man named George Zimmerman!
By now, Zimmerman has a well documented history regarding his aggressive behaviors, going back at least 8 years. Lately he has been threatening people by intimating he might use a gun, and he did assault his father-in-law.
We also know he is not above brazen lying and concocting schemes to conceal his actions--that's what he did by trying to conceal his assets from the judge presiding over his bail hearings in his murder case.
To point out the known facts about Zimmerman is not trashing him, it's part of his behavioral pattern that shouldn't be ignored when appraising his credibility.
There is no legitimate reason to trash the woman who is his current accuser, both because you know little to nothing about her, and because what she told the police is not beyond the realm of possibility. He did have a shotgun, and they did find her locked out of the house with Zimmerman barricaded inside it, something that also gave him time to alter the crime scene.
And, what Zimmerman said, in his calm, matter-of-fact, 911 "my side of the story" call, in no way explained why he was barricaded inside the house--he expressed no fear of her, and he wasn't opening the door for the police either.
So why was he rather bizarrely barricaded in her house, making a "media statement" 911 call? And the story he concocted, that she wanted him to leave, he agreed to leave, but when he took her at her word and started packing, she "went crazy" and began throwing his stuff around, and breaking her own furniture, just doesn't sound plausible. And he threw her out of the house
after she made her 911 call to the police, and her allegation is that he pointed the shotgun at to keep her from making that call, which she obviously made anyway.
Why he would throw her out after she made her 911 call doesn't make sense, particularly because he told the dispatcher during his call that he was trying to avoid causing this allegedly pregnant women stress. Why the hell didn't he get out of the house, rather than throwing her out--it was
her house. He could have gone outside, gotten into his truck, and just waited for the police to arrive. Except he might have barricaded himself inside so he had time to alter the scene before the police got there...
Right now I have no reason to suspect that her allegations are untrue--they sound plausible. On the other hand, what he said in his 911 call, doesn't sound plausible to me, it's inconsistent, and it seems manufactured to discredit her because it doesn't explain his behavior--like why he's sitting barricaded in the house, with the police pounding on the door, as he's making that 911 call.
We really have to wait for this one to enfold in court, and listen to her testimony, or statement to the police, in its entirety, and listen to what the defense presents, or listen to Zimmerman directly if he testifies.
But there is absolutely no reason to start concocting stories about this woman, or to start trashing her.
Zimmerman just hired a new lawyer, let her come up with a defense for him.
