@hawkeye10,
Quote:that is very murky...some reports have it that George announced the end..
Oh please, Zimmerman himself told the 911 dispatcher, in his own 911 call, that she wanted him to leave, and that he had agreed to leave.
And Zimmerman and Scheibe couldn't have "made up" since he's not supposed to have had any contact with her.
It was Zimmerman's attorney who submitted Scheibe's request to have the charges dropped as well as Zimmerman's request to have the no-contact order rescinded. Doesn't that suggest to you that this is something Zimmerman's attorney worked out, with Scheibe's help, to get the charges dropped before he's arraigned on Jan. 7th?
You're not paying attention to what either Zimmerman or Scheibe has been saying. The reason she contacted that reporter was to try to get Zimmerman psychiatric help, which he certainly sounds like he needs--even O'Mara said he hopes Zimmerman gets counseling.
Scheibe doesn't want Zimmerman in jail--she wants him to see a shrink, and if Zimmerman's attorney was able to convince her that he will see a shrink, that would make her suddenly withdraw the charge that he pointed a gun at her and to say she wants the charges dropped. She doesn't hate the man, she wants to get him help--and that's what she told that reporter for 3 weeks, documenting why she thinks he needs help.
You seem to be unable to accept that this woman actually feels compassion for Zimmerman, and that she's really tried to help him all along. But he's really been impossible for her to deal with--she claims he ODed once on pills, has put his gun in his mouth on another occassion, spends days at a time refusing to get out of bed, has blown up at her and has thrown her out of her own house, has tried to choke her, etc. and he's refused to go for help
And, even though he had agreed, finally, to get out of her house, he apparently blew up at her, over something, and that led to her 911 call and his arrest. That blow up may not have been over his leaving, something else may have ticked him off. And, in her 911 call, you can hear her telling him to just leave her house. But he didn't do that, he threw her out, of her house, and barricaded himself inside. That does suggest which of them was acting crazy, and why she wanted him out of her house.
I'm rather sure that Zimmerman's agreeing to go for psychiatric help may be the reason she's asking for the charges to be dropped. The question is, will he really go? Is his lawyer making arrangements for him to quietly go into a private psych hospital somewhere? We're never going to know. But, don't forget, his current lawyer didn't approve of his playing "wannabe cop" the night he killed Trayvon, and she's also aware that, since his acquittal his behavior has been alarming, and he's also been acting suicidal, so his lawyer must want to see him in psych treatment as well, and maybe she's been the one able to convince him that he's got to get himself some help. I hope so.
As for Shellie peddeling a book, I doubt it. I also doubt that many people would want to read such a book. People are tired of hearing about Zimmerman. He's a nobody whose only claim to noteriety is that he killed an unarmed kid and that provoked a controversial legal case. When all is said and done, he's still a nobody, and so are Shellie and Scheibe. Why would anyone want to read books about these people?
