Zimmerman's
Wife Admits Z Used Self-Defense Excuse Years Ago
By keepemhonest
Zimmerman is in Court today on Bond Hearing.
Thinkprogress Reported:
"While interviewing Zimmerman's current wife, the
state proscecutor read from an affidavit by the ex-girlfriend. She alleged in
the sworn statement that he "pushed her," then slapped her with an open hand to
the mouth and "asked her how it felt." She said he "picked me up and threw me
on the bed" and then "grabbed me again."Zimmerman's wife responded that her
husband was simply trying to "protect himself from being attacked by her."
Re-read that last sentence: Zimmerman's
wife responded that her husband was simply trying to "protect himself from
being attacked by her." Does that sound a wee bit familiar?
Talkingpointsmemo Reports:
George Zimmerman took the witness stand at his own bond
hearing this morning in a Florida courtroom and said he was sorry to the
parents of Trayvon Martin.
"I wanted to say I am sorry for the loss of your son,"
Zimmerman said. "I did not know how old he was. I thought he was a little bit
younger than I am. And I did not know that he was armed or not."
- Zimmerman on why he had to kill Trayvon Martin in order to determine if
Trayvon was armed
Was that a blatant LIE in
that BS apology? Zimmerman said, "I thought he was a little bit
younger than I am."
Yet on the 911 call Zimmerman knew
Trayvon was no where near Z's age
911 dispatcher: "How old would you say he
is?"
Zimmerman: "He's got something on his shirt.
About like his late teens."
911 dispatcher: "Late teens?"
Zimmerman: "Uh, huh."
Zimmerman is 28 years old and he will be 29
years old in October.
