George Zimmerman, Threatens Wife and Family With A Gun

UPDATE; Shellie Zimmerman is not pressing charges
in Florida  charges can be brought against George Zimmerman without Shellie’s involvement. In that state, an appeals court held “the decision to prosecute does not lie with the victim of a crime.” Rather, the state’s attorney decides whether or not to review a case.

Lake Mary police chief, Steve Bracknell told The Huffington Post Shellie Zimmerman, called Lake Mary Police around 2:10 p.m. to report that her estranged husband had threatened her and her family with a gun and battered her father. Bracknell said George Zimmerman was detained at the scene and the investigation is ongoing.
According to the 911 call, George Zimmerman kept telling his wife to move closer while he was holding a gun. It sounds like George was trying to set up another case of stand your ground.
Shellie Zimmerman told the 911 dispatcher that a witness sitting in his truck saw the entire altercation. She broke down sobbing saying she was scared and in shock.
