Zimmerman's girlfriend pregnant, that makes a felony charge automatic...

[Little Star]

George Zimmerman
ARRESTED
Allegedly Attacked Pregnant GF

Since she's pregnant, we're told the domestic violence charge is automatically listed as a felony. The Seminole County Sheriff's website says Zimmerman is not eligible for bail.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... Zimmerman JUST arrived to a local jail and is currently being booked into the system.

[Scuba]

1. Dammit! I had tomorrow in the pool!

[William769]

2. What a piece of work that one is.

I hope they throw the book at him (literally).

[MoonRiver]

3. He'll claim he was standing his ground against two, gf and fetus.

[JustAnotherGen]

77. And he'll probably

Get off on it too . . .

[Blue Owl]

4. Stand your prison grounds, douchebag

I'll feel better knowing the likes of you are behind bars.

[VanillaRhapsody]

5. Well if he is found guiltyof Domestic Violence...that will end his access to guns

I was thankful that happened to my ex husband.

[Little Star]

7. What will wimpy ass George do then.....

Being the stand up law abiding citizen he is, he'll probably carry anyway. I can't stand his sorry ass!

[VanillaRhapsody]

14. Hope he does....he will be in violation when he gets caught...

and he will always get caught.

He has a self-destructive personality just like my ex! They think they are invincable.

[arely staircase]

21. that is correct

He will not end well. I just hope nobody else gets killed .

[erpowers]

27. He Wil Do It Anyway

I think George Zimmerman would carry a gun even of he would have to risk being in violation of the law. In addition, if he were to be found guilty of a felony, stripped of his right to carry a gun, and then found in violation of the law as a result of continuing to carry a gun he would just become a bigger hero to some on the right.

[SunSeeker]

34. Of course he will disregard the law.

If he cared about the law, he would have listened to the police dispatcher and stayed in his car.

[SoCalMusicLover]

6. What A Catch!

She must be so happy to have him in her life. And the father of her child, no doubt.

He will certainly raise a wonderful kid who will become part of the next generation. What a lucky kid.

[Scootaloo]

28. I know it's probably not your intent, but this is victim-blaming

The person at fault here is the asshole who hit her, not the woman who got hit.

[SoCalMusicLover]

41. This Is True

But when a woman keeps going back to a guy who has hit her on many prior occasions. Including one supposedly where he threatened to kill her. Oh, and by the way....this guy also happened to murder someone and got away with it.

I'll be honest, I have less sympathy for someone who continues to go back to a situation where they know trouble exists. We'll see if she takes this wonderful guy back again. Because you never know, NOW might be the time he changes and matures. It won't be, but the chance exists.

I don't suspect this child is going to grow up and win any nobel peace prizes.

[TBF]

44. Isn't this a new girlfriend -

I thought the ex-wife was out of the picture now.

You also really do need to examine why you feel the need to blame the victim imo. Is there any particular reason why you're not blaming the criminal?

[SoCalMusicLover]

52. Of Course The Criminal Is To Blame

NOTHING gives someone the right to abuse another person. Zimmerman is the one who should be held accountable.

Isn't there a point though, where she should see him for the criminal that he is, and wise up? It just always amazes me how guys like this, who treat women like garbage time and time again, manage to get the women back.

I'm probably just bitter because I'm single, and it's tough enough finding someone who wants to meet a nice guy, yet someone like this Asshole, manages to go from gf to gf, abusing them all along the way.

[nomorenomore08]

62. I feel what you're saying completely. But putting it on the victim (even unintentionally)

doesn't help anything. Abusive situations are nearly always very difficult to extricate oneself from, for a variety of reasons. And hey, we're all human, we make mistakes - which includes our relationship choices.

[TBF]

64. Sadly there are many reasons why folks stay in abusive relationships -

sometimes it is all they have ever known. Happens the other way around too - men being abused in either straight or gay relationships.

[treestar]

70. Not blaming her for what he did to her but

who the hell would start dating him now? If there's anyone there's a warning about, it's him. Usually they act charming at first.

[TBF]

73. Abuse issues are deep - many in that situation have never known anything else.

At base it's usually very low self-esteem at work. You and I have relatively decent self-esteem, see a character like Georgie and think "that dude is psychotic - I am staying away from him". Others don't have that kind of trust in their own instincts.

It's very sad really.

[IdaBriggs]

80. The divorce has not been finalized.

So, his soon-to-be-ex-wife is still around, but he also has a pregnant girlfriend.

The initial papers were filed by his (still) wife in early September. This is about two-and-a-half months later, and divorces don't usually happen that fast.

But hey! He's got a newly pregnant girlfriend who is now the third or fourth woman who has had to call the police when dealing with him during "domestic disputes" - he's a winner!

[TBF]

87. I'm just glad he's finally in jail

where he belongs. His hearing is at 1:30 today. We'll see if they keep him there.

[Scootaloo]

53. Seriously?

My mother spent seventeen years with a guy who would beat the hell out of her. He smashed her orbital before I was born, threw her into a solid oak door, bet her bloody with a belt, and had he not been passed out drunk one time, likely would have killed her - she came home to find him on the couch, out cold, a shotgun leveled at the door.

Seventeen years. Each time, she'd believe his apologies. Each time, she'd come back. And each time, he'd do it again. Every. Time. This continued until a friend of the family forced some money into my mother's hand, threw our bags in her truck, and whisked us away to the New Orleans Amtrak station on a one-way trip to the West Coast. My dad left for work one morning, and came home to an empty house six hours later, by which time we were already en route to Seattle.

Why did my mother keep going back? It's certainly not because she's a stupid woman. She's no fool. She fell in love with this man after school, and wanted to keep loving him. Each 'apology' fed her the belief that it was both of their fault that he beat the hell out of her. She wanted to keep the relationship she had come into, she wanted to return to the man she had fallen in love with, and after every beating he not only offered that to her, but fed HER the guilt for "ruining it." Eventually it was less an issue of wanting the man she loved, and more about how going along with his abuse was less threatening than the alternatives she imagined.

I have nothing but sympathy for people in these positions. We can sit outside of this dynamic and cluck our tongues over these women and men "making bad decisions," as if we're so entitled. We're not. Abuse is more than blood and bruises, it's the wholesale destruction of a person, inside and out.

[OwnedByCats]

60. I think it's wrong to judge the victims

My mother would say "well, she picked him!", but since she never dealt with long term abuse (just briefly in her teens), she doesn't understand. Regardless, the abuser is at fault, no matter what. It may be difficult to understand for some, but victim blaming is not the way to go.

[thucythucy]

83. Thank you for this post.

This is a message that needs to be repeated until it is heard. Until the advent of feminism our entire society was geared to blame victims and enable abusers. Sadly, in many places, and in many minds, this is still the case.

I hope you and your mother were able to build happy and safe lives after all that abuse.

Best wishes.

[sibelian]

89. Yes. It's totally tragic - people can absorb HUGE amounts of abuse if they think

they can make sense of it.

[Logical]

72. Well, she picked a winner! nt

[kysrsoze]

86. So GROSS! The Zim has impregnated her. I really don't need that vision in my head. Yuck.

[TBF]

88. IKR, that has definitely got to be the worst part of this story. nt

[cyndensco]

8. It keeps getting better!

[AndyA]

9. I'll bet he felt threatened by the fetus!

Just standing his ground.

I see the clean shaven appearance has hit the dirt. This guy is a serious @ S S H O L E.

[Katashi_itto]

10. The Fetus was armed obviously.

I understand the Pre-born prefer Glocks.

[arely staircase]

17. well to be fair

The fetus was acting suspicious, looking around like it was on drugs or something.

[Katashi_itto]

18. Was wearing a Hoodie too.

[giftedgirl77]

11. He looks quite smug in that mugshot..

Sooner or later his luck is gonna run out & when it does boy oh boy poor Zimmie is going to wish he had had kept his ass out of jail.

[tblue]

22. The look says, "I'm getting tired of this sh)t."

He's annoyed. Poor thing.

[giftedgirl77]

23. We see two totally different things,

I see a smirk, that says "really, you're trying this again?".

Who knows what is really going on?

[Scootaloo]

29. That looks like the final frame of a sitcom...

"Aw shucks, you know me!"

[sibelian]

90. Smugshot.

[giftedgirl77]

91. Touche

[LittleBlue]

12. Is this OJ part 2?

I wouldn't mind seeing an "oops" conviction here.

[demigoddess]

13. I'm hoping for a few years in prison

at the least.

[VanillaRhapsody]

15. even better...no more guns for Georgy Porgy....after a domestic violence charge..

and from then on...ANY woman accuses him....back to jail he goes! That's what my ex is afraid of...

[Lochloosa]

16. That is the best justice here. Take away his toys.

[Jester Messiah]

20. They're gonna pass him around like a joint.

He won't last a month.

[frogmarch]

19. He considered himself a celebrity

and untouchable.

I hope he's locked up for very long time.

[joeybee12]

24. Damn fetus was eating skittles...it was clearly justified...nt

[Heather MC]

48. I heard the fetus was wearing a gray hoodie Thug 4 Life

51. It clearly didn't belong in the neighborhood...probably smashed Georgie's

head into the sidewalk, too.

[Heather MC]

59. NEVER

turn your back on a Fetus
they always get away with it

[rickford66]

25. WTF?

Someone actually wanted sexual relations with this creep .... for free ?

[Shrike47]

26. I do hope he's not the father of the fetus.

Lousy genetic material and great role model.

[SunSeeker]

36. Maybe he's not. Maybe that's what the fight was about. nt

[TRoN33]

30. Oh no...

Is this article telling us that George Zimmerman has unleashed his own offspring into our society? Let pray that Zimmerman's ex had exmatrial affair with someone else...

[Kelvin Mace]

31. Pregnancy claim recanted

so, I don't know what is going on here other than Zimmerman deciding he really wants to go to jail.

2:14 PM PT According to the Seminole County Sheriff, the woman was not pregnant ... but we're told she told the 911 dispatcher she was. The Sheriff says the woman claims Zimmerman pointed a DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN at her, pushed her out of the house. He then allegedly barricaded the front door with furniture.

Zimmerman is currently in solitary for his protection and he's being checked on every hour.

[Heather MC]

49. How would the Sheriff know??

GZ just had a wife in September. This is a Girl Friend She could be newly Pregnant

[Kelvin Mace]

50. The girl friend is the one recanting

so maybe she knows something...

[Heather MC]

65. OK

I really hope this dude isn't procreating.
People like him are why I am in favor of Birth Control in the water supply
just sayin'

81. Thanks

And welcome Becky Saldana! Zimpig said it - NOT her. She has nothing to 'recant'.

[Kelvin Mace]

84. According to "breaking" news report

(always of questionable reliability), she told the 911 dispatcher she was pregnant. Later they reported that Zimmerman claimed she was pregnant, then the police reported that she denied/recanted being pregnant.

I am guessing we will know the truth a month from now.

[Kelvin Mace]

98. We need a month generally because that is how long it takes for all

the facts to come out.

The 911 call answers some questions, bit not all.

My view on this is not unique to this situation. So far, every "big" fast breaking story gets major facts wrong for weeks, sometimes months, and occasionally years. Shootings, bombings, celebrity melt-downs, etc. are rife with misinformation at their outset.

People are too quick to pass judgment in the absence of hard facts, especially if the party at the center of a story is someone we don't like.

[ecstatic]

69. I heard both 911 calls. GZ was the only person to mention a pregnancy

It could be that she is pregnant now, but has decided not to go through with it. Who would want to be tied to an unstable asshole for the next 18+ years? ?

[Kelvin Mace]

85. I was basing the information on

earlier reports before the audio was released.

As I said, it will probably be a month before we know exactly what happened for certain.

[BainsBane]

32. Oh, goodie!!!!

Though I hope the woman and her baby are safe. God, I hope he didn't seriously injure them.

[erpowers]

33. Girlfriend Not Pregnant

According to an update on the TMZ website George Zimmerman's girlfriend is not pregnant, but told the 911 operator that she was pregnant. Also, at some point the girlfriend informed law enforcement officials that Zimmerman pointed a double barreled shotgun at her, pushed her out of the house, and then barricaded himself inside the house.

http://www.tmz.com/2013/11/18/george-zimmerman-arrested-domestic-violence/#ixzz2l1vF2gYV

[Little Star]

54. The link you posted says George says she is pregnant..

During his call, Zimmerman says the girlfriend is "going crazy" and is PREGNANT WITH HIS CHILD. He says he called 911 so everyone would know the truth about what happened

[erpowers]

68. Keep Changing It

TMZ keeps updating the story as it changes. Earlier today they updated the story to say she was not pregnant. When I looked at the link they had not written the parts about George Zimmerman calling 911.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

75. Maybe you should refrain from linking to TMZ. nt

[erpowers]

97. TMZ Not the Problem

I do not think the mix up had anything to do with TMZ. It seems that when George Zimmerman is involved information is constantly changing.

In the incident with his estranged wife two months ago most members of the news media were not sure what was going on and whether or not Zimmerman had actually had a gun that day. Shellie Zimmerman and Mark O' Mara claimed Zimmerman had his gun on him during the altercation. However, the police claimed they had not found a gun on Zimmerman.

In addition, most of the information provided by TMZ was accurate. As the information changed TMZ updated its website. That happens at just about every news agency. What happened with the TMZ website could have happened at any website and often does happen at the websites of news agencies. There are constantly correction written on websites and in print editions of news outlets.

[JustAnotherGen]

79. I listened to both calls

Go over to the Video/Multimedia forum here. HE said she was pregnant. Unless something was deleted from her tape - then she never said it.

She doesn't have to recant anything.

[skamaria]

37. Looks like he's trying to get back in jail.

Must like the three hots and a cot.

[Botany]

38. I wonder how he will get along with the general population in prison?

[alphafemale]

39. So girlfriend and not the ex-wife?

Just wondering.

[malaise]

40. Don't yah just love those ReTHUG and bagger

family values!!

Finally hoisted on his own petard!!!!

[7962]

42. What an idiot.

[Enthusiast]

43. I understood he was a POS.

More evidence. Is there any doubt?

[okaawhatever]

45. Story needs updating. The Seminole country sheriff says she's not pregnant, but claimed she was in

911 call. I don't know why there's confusion, but TMZ updated this story. I hope the girlfriend didn't lie about it, that's all society needs is for Zimmerman to walk on something else.
When his ex-wife said Zimm threatened her, she claimed he used a weapon but apparently that wasn't true and she changed her story saying he held his hand like a gun. (according to USA Today). All the pro-Zimmerman morons are claiming all of this and the times he's been pulled over are attempts to discredit him and "get him back".
He had domestic violence charges before the Trayvon incident, and I have no doubt he did these things but I want people to tell the truth, we don't need people questioning the validity of any of these claims.

[NOLALady]

47. Trayvon's colleagues?

Please explain.

[Little Star]

55. What do you mean by Trayvon's colleagues?

[arcane1]

56. "Trayvon's colleagues"?

[Gravitycollapse]

58. "He'll end up in jail with some of Trayvon's colleagues" - Of all the possible things...

You could have said, that was most definitely the wrong thing.

[gollygee]

63. Woah!

Trayvon was not a criminal. He had no "colleagues" in prison. What?

[uponit7771]

66. Trayvon was a Jail House security guard!?

[bvar22]

57. How's all that Macho Bullshit working out for you now, Z-Man?

[font size=4]Time to start learning The Blues, Big Boy.
You'll have lots of help where you're headed.
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.[/font]

[nomorenomore08]

61. I knew he'd fuck up again. Couldn't happen to a "nicer" guy.

[DonCoquixote]

67. They better put his behind in Protective Custody

and not, that is not a rape joke, that is a fact I observed while working for the Florida Dept of Corrections. There will be a whole line of people of all colors ready to kill him, just to claim the status. Consider that bragging rights can literally be life or death matters in there.

If they keep him in general population, his life will be in danger 24/7.

[bullwinkle428]

71. The girlfriend never said anything about being pregnant on the 911 call,

but ZIMMERMAN was making a big deal about the "pregnancy"!

[Little Star]

82. I know, weird huh?

[StarrGazerr]

76. Who's the father?

[rbrnmw]

92. I Love Karma

I hope this psychopath stays locked up like he already should have been.

[raccoon]

93. Regarding the girlfriend--"We are comfortable with the familiar, even if it is painful."

A counselor told me that once, and she was so right.

I'd bet this woman is used to guys in her life who are a$$holes.

[rbrnmw]

94. i stayed with one for 20 years

I would not wish my life on anyone it will take years of counselling to undo the damage our marriage has done to our children hopefully she will run as far away from him as she can get. I hope she will seek out domestic violence counselling immediately!!! She will need a support system. I can't go to one because my husband stopped hitting with his fists and only threatened me with words he had beaten me down enough that only his words were enough to put the fear in me. I knew not to defy him because I did not want them to see the ugly side of him so I went along to get along. I regret that I wonder where I would be now if I left 18 or 19 years ago? I will never know because I stayed.
