Or will he continue getting away with crimes? He will kill again. It's just a matter of time. But will he ever go to prison? Will he ever be held responsible for what he does?

That deep down he knows he got away with murder and wants to have to be punished for something? Whatever it is, he is one messed up asshat.

George Zimmerman, acquitted in July in the fatal shooting of black teenager Trayvon Martin, was arrested Monday in Seminole County Fla., Florida media outlets are reporting.

The Orlando Sentinelreported that Zimmerman was en route to the Seminole County Jail in Sanford, according to Sheriff Don Eslinger.

The Sentinel said it was not clear what happened or what crime he's accused of committing, but just before 1:30 p.m., Eslinger confirmed that Zimmerman had been arrested.

WESH-Channel 2 reported that Zimmerman was accused of domestic violence by a girlfriend.

Zimmerman, 30, was a neighborhood watch in a gated community in Sanford, Fla., when he shot Trayvon, 17, on Feb. 26, 2012. The shooting touched off protests across the nation. Some of the wrath targeted the state's Stand Your Ground statue, although Zimmerman's lawyers opted to rely on a more standard self-defense argument at trial.

George Zimmerman arrested for allegedly attacking pregnant girlfriend in Florida: report
The former neighborhood watch who gained national notoriety after killing Trayvon Martin, an unarmed teenager, was busted Monday on suspicion of domestic violence 15 miles north of Orlando. This is far from the first time he has been back in the news since his acquittal in July.

The charge is aggravated assault with a weapon, doesn't mention that she's pregnant. Though I don't know if that would be mentioned.

I read somewhere that when the victim is pregnant the charge is upgraded and automatically becomes more serious than a DV.

Thanks for posting the Seminole County link -- really nice to see his mug in jail.

He says she is pregnant and that she is smashing her own belongings.

Idiot woman to get involved with him in the first place. Why oh why would she even go on a date with him? Let alone allow him to move in with her?
