Shellie Zimmerman explains why she is divorcing her husband George.
I really don't trust this woman. She might be telling some truths, but she stops short. Still believes this was self defense. There is a civil suit pending. Divorce means splitting assets, or giving them to her. Not touchable then. In time they can still be together.
Or maybe she's just glad to be rid of him once and for all.
What she's saying about him and their relationship reflects very poorly on him. If this was a ploy, would she be calling him selfish, reckless, and abusive?
I'll give her the benefit of the doubt to a certain extent because, not only does she say he was abusive and short-tempered, but she likely got the same treatment from his family since all of this started.
Exactly my thoughts, too. Transfer the Zimmerman Defense Fund money over to Shellie as a "divorce settlement" ploy. Then the money is safe from any civil lawsuits.
No, she is not sympathetic. She KNEW what kind of jerk she was married to and she KNEW he was guilty of murder and what did she do? She parked her considerable ass in the courtroom everyday hoping to be photographed and seen as "The Good Wife." I call BS!!! She (or maybe THEY) had a plan. She cared not a bit about the anguish of Trayvon's parents and brother. She's as bad as Georgie IMHO. It was her duty to inform the police that her husband was out trolling for someone suspicious (preferably black) and in a agitated state because of their crumbling relationship. She KNEW what he was capable of in the state he was in. She KNEW he was abusive, frustrated, resentful and gun crazy.
Any chance for a transcript? I do not care to look at her face or hear her voice. She is a convicted perjurer, and now turning Trayvon's death into her 15 minutes. Why is anyone giving this convict a soapbox? Now? files for divorce? She didn't know he was a creep b4 he shot the kid?
I also agree this is another 15 mins of fame, with NJ Housewives thrown in. All she did was repeat what the interviewer said, and what little she did say, was inciting and inappropriate for something just starting litigation. I see this as more publicity (and money) for them both, while we get shoved at us snippets of very public, trashy divorce.
I believe her. She had left him to go to her father's house the night of Trayvon's murder. She was forced to remain as his wife. She looks like she was under constant verbal and psychological abuse. Her perjury was probably not her idea. How many other women have stayed with serial abusers/killers, pedophiles (Hello Mrs. Sandusky,) out of fear for their own well-being?
I do hope she goes off quietly and rebuilds a new life. Hint: change your name, Shellie and move the hell out of Florida.
She wouldn't be the first abused wife to lie for her husband.
Plus, considering what an asshole George's big brother is, I'd bet she was threatened. Remember that the brother had control over the paypal account Shellie lied about. The whole Zimmerman family seems really fucked up.
She needs to get as far away from that asshole as possible. And, there are major ways she could change her appearance - as well as her first and last name. She could obtain a completely new hair style, use a different color and lose a substantial amount of weight.
Call me cynical, but I'm not buying it. If she were african american and lied under oath to a judge and jury to save her husband's butt, anyone want to wager if she'd get a slap on the wrist, show up on tv for interviews, write a book etc etc etc? She knows he's out there and armed and she calls him arrogant? If she was battered, afraid etc.... she'd keep her trap shut and stay out of the spotlight.
They're both in this together, divorce or no divorce.

DeleteConsidering Georgie Porgy tried to make out a hero after the paramedics arrived after that car accident, I wouldn't put it past either one of them.

DeleteI agree. The points you made are why I also am not convinced it's a ploy.
I'm glad she has enough self-esteem left to get out.
ReplyDeleteOT, but maybe not that OT - http://videocafe.crooksandliars.com/david/white-dallas-man-shoots-8-year-old-black-boy
She's going to try and cash in on his notoriety in 1 2 3...
ReplyDeleteI question her motivations but I have no doubt Stay Puft is arrogant, abusive, and self-centered.
ReplyDeleteI'll wager Zimmerman is one nasty asshole.

ReplyDeleteToo bad she did not speak up DURING the trial. Too little, too late.

ReplyDeleteI truly wish her well.
