Shellie Zimmerman is an abused wife

[boston bean]

All the evidence is pointing to it. It is classic battered womens syndrome.

Plus many abusers shoot heir wives and children when they file charges or get a restraining order. Which does nothing to really protect them because the ass is free on the streets. You can't use her action of not filing charges and assume she is lying.

I've seen pics of her fathers nose which had visible injury and her smashed ipad. She wasn't lying. His nose did not need to be treated is what the paramedics said. Not that he had no injury. O'mara says Zimmerman did have a gun on him When the fuck doesn't this asshole have a gun?

Please think of these things before attacking this woman.

1. Sadly the "I'm not pressing charges" fits the pattern too. n/t

2. I don't doubt for a minute

that he is verbally and emotionally abusive.


edit to add- She may have been afraid to file charges.

3. At least they will be getting divorce.

What a sad sad situation for this woman. Zimmy has basically screwed up her life, in every way possible.

Good vibes to her, I hope she recovers.

20. Except that divorce will not end it.

Many 'ex-wives' have been murdered by their abusive former husbands. I hope this woman gets counseling from someone who specializes in abusive relationships--someone who will flat out tell he what she might expect moving forward. There are two good things in all this: no children involved, and it is a matter of time before Georgie Boy winds up in jail where he belongs.

21. She needs to get a restraining order and move away, out of state.

4. On tv they mentioned that Zimmerman had a bodyguard with him.

I think the proper word is "muscle".

Given the way the police handled this I would like to know if that bodyguard was himself a police officer.

5. We need to say this again and again and again

She has physically left and is now in the process of divorcing him. . . she is in survival mode because in her gut she knows she is in danger. Just wish she had filed charges and gotten an R.O.

This way he couldn't get close enough to say 'come closer'.

6. Police refuting her story

Whatever was said, if you listen to the 911 call, she was very scared and upset - that was not play acting. Yes, she should have followed through. And what about the father's nose? Not bad enough to go to the hospital? Did G. Zimmerman go to the hospital for his head injuries after he killed that young boy?

7. K&R

She is showing the classic symptoms of being too afraid to press charges against him because of what he might do to her. He has already gotten away with murder. She has a very real reason to be afraid. I hope she can find safety and get away from him.

8. Last night on MSNBC,

Sharpton had attorney Lisa Bloom on to discuss - she said Mark O'Mara was at the house almost immediately and she hoped that Shellie had legal representation there also before deciding not to press charges. But probably not, I'll bet she was bullied into not charging him.

10. Her attorney was there and after consulting with him,

she decided not to press charges.

[HappyMe]

11. That's interesting.

I have a feeling this is going to be one of those divorces that drags on and on.

[Jackpine Radical]

16. Bullied? Bought? Some combination?

[msanthrope]

9. Or, maybe she's just a lowlife grifter who met her match? You don't

really know what she is, but she is a convicted liar.

[HappyMe]

15. Well, you have a point there.

This whole thing could be a witch's brew of an incredibly fucked up relationship. Neither party being 100% innocent.

12. Could you link to the pictures,

because the Paramedics said there were no visible injuries present.

But fire officials who responded to the scene “checked everyone physically” and found that “no one had any visible marks or needed any treatment,” according to Hudson.

I've treated enough punched noses, broken or otherwise, to know that a strike to the nose produces almost immediate visible signs, like bleeding, swellincartilagedge displacement, black eye(s).
