Did you know they hauled George Zimmerman's Wife to Jail as well? Is the media having an effect on how due process is being carried out in this case?

Of course! The justice system has been hijacked by politics and media bias. Given the facts, there is no possible way George Zimmerman could be charged let alone convicted for anything (remember guilty "beyond the reasonable doubt")..

And the charge of second degree murder is criminal and politically motivated. It also is meant to scare Zimmerman into a plea bargain to a lower charge since the prosecution fears an actual trial devoid of evidence.

Don't believe this? Read the article below, be informed of the truth behind the shameful parade.

    Well, she committed a felony, lying to the court about how much money was in the bank and about her husband having a second passport, her being taken to jail has nothing to do with the media.

    And George, time will tell what the court and jury decide.

    Zimmerman's wife is in jail because she committed PERJURY. When a person lies under oath that is what happens. They lied about how much money they had during his bail hearing.

    Of course she's in jail, she committed perjury at his bond hearing by denying knowing how much money had been donated to them through their website when the judge asked her about their finances.

    Not only is she a liar she's stupid for thinking they could get away with it, it's gonna hurt him at his upcoming trial when they try and prove that he's a credible witness...good luck with that!

    A jail sentence longer than a few days would be too harsh, I think, but she did commit perjury. Most judges take a dim view of that.

    When you commit perjury, it's a federal offence. A fine/penalty of up to 5 years in jail. Shame there aren't co-ed prisons- she and hubby could be incarcerated together.

    His wifes in jail because she lied to the judge about their finances. Georgge and his wife spoke together in code about the amount of money they had so the judge would think they had less.

    I don't know if she should have gone to jail, but she SHOULD be sanctioned for lying about their financial status. I am sick of the public paying for attorneys for people who hide or do not disclose their assets. The other day I had a preliminary hearing for a drug dealer who had squirreled away about 250K before his arrest and now had a public defender! No explanation required about where the money went. Nuts!

    She committed a felony. She lied to the Court, under oath, about a $100,000 slush fund. Media had nothing to do with her arrest.

    As for George Zimmerman, given that the facts clearly show an unjustified, premeditated murder of an innocent teenager because of the color of his skin, not to mention the corruption of the Florida authorities in trying to protect his racist act, the fact that he was granted bail in the first place was a travesty of justice. The only disappointing thing is that he is not facing the death penalty.

    You mean like suggesting that President Obama wouldn't have cared if an innocent white child was murdered? Or the idea that the only reason this story is in the news is politics from the left? The reality is that this story is in the news because it was a perfect example of the insanity of "stand your ground" laws that the Right Wing has pushed for years and the idea among white conservatives that there's nothing wrong with murdering black children. George Zimmerman is only the latest to believe it.

    Well, I can see you skimmed the top of it (but fair enough, its long!) but you present nothing "presented as fact" that is wrong. To be honest, I do believe that Obama would not care (nor do I think he cares about Trayvon as an individual either but rather the issue) but neither you or can know what is in Obama's head. That was clearly presented as a viewpoint, not something supported in the record.

    Ironically, you are right, and the main thrust of the article IS that it is in the news in great part because it was an opportunity for the left to attack the Stand your Ground Laws. George Zimmerman was not the "latest to believe it", I don't think he was believing or thinking much as he was being beaten and screaming for help, other than he was getting his ass kicked and was scared.

    He doesn't strike me as the type that blogs about politics. However, he is a registered Democrat (that is a fact and part of the record) since you speak about white conservatives and him being the latest to believe it (he isn't so "white" either). No one in the initial investigation mentioned the term stand your ground, nor did George claim it as his defense (nor is there any evidence he knew of its existence). He claimed and the investigation was conducted under the regular self defense laws. Once the ...

    It was Trayvon Martin who was screaming for his life as he ran away from a gun toting bigot who called him a "f*cking coon" and ignored police instructions to stay away. All Trayvon Martin was doing was walking home from the store while black. And the ironic thing is that despite the fact that Zimmerman obviously planned to use the "stand your ground" laws to get away with murder, it was Trayvon Martin that actually DID have the right to defend himself, not Zimmerman.

    If you're going to lie about one of the most basic elements of this incident, then you have no business complaining about ANYONE'S "facts".
  • Erik Zi... ProudPr... 2012/06/18 13:37:30
    Erik Zimerman
    You are more removed from the facts than I expected, but that's what explains your opinion. The "Efin coon" (also in the article) was something CNN made up and then had to take back, from the recording on Zimmerman's call to the 911 operator. That is not something Trayvon heard. He definitely was not running away from a "gun toting bigot", George had not drawn his gun. But this is exactly the kind of the thing the media has caused, and was exactly my point, I would want the guy dead too if the things the media said were true.

    It was Trayvon who did "stand his ground" and confronted the guy who kept staring at him (cause it was his job as the neighborhood watch). Its plain enough, an altercation started, there was no gun drawn, Trayvon didn't swing at a guy holding a gun.

    Now don't get me wrong, in no way am I saying Trayvon should have been shot, and you are right, he was just walking home.. that is fine. Apparently, he just had a temper and stepped up to the "creepy" guy staring at him, and clocked him. That is fair enough, not a reason to get killed, but once he jumped on him and kept beating him, it explains "why" he got killed, not that it was ok. A better man than George could have handled it differently, but not being a better man is not the same as being a murderer. Now...

A better man than George could have handled it differently, but not being a better man is not the same as being a murderer. Now, its clear to me really that you have a completely distorted view of the events. If you want to actually read the distortions of the facts the media played, and learn the real facts of the case, what the witnesses actually said that night to police, what the 911 recordings actually show, and what the police found at the scene, and then tell me why I am wrong then I am happy to hear, but if we have two completely different versions of the facts in our head, there is nothing to argue about. Mine came from real research. Yours came from half heard propaganda. Because I am not arguing that you should be able to be a gun toting bigot and chase down and murder young black kids.

    He didn't "step up to the guy staring at him" he RAN FOR HIS LIFE FROM A BIGOT CALLING HIM A F*CKING COON. He didn't "jump on him" HE WAS ATTACKED.

    Its hardly a generalization when most of the progressives I've talked to rail against the death penalty and how unfair it is.

    And I don't see this as a situation where someone should "fry".
