That family has been through more than enough, but the media are still hounding and stalking them.
Per FoxNews this morning, neither Zimmerman nor his father-in-law are filing charges. And, the ‘gun’ was in the auto glove box, so it was never an issue.

No wonder Richard Jewell, accused of the Atlanta bombing, died at an early age. He, too was hounded and stalked for years after by the media.

The media can be destructive.
It’s not the media necessarily stalking him in this case — it’s his wife Shellie.
She instigated this confrontation by going to the house when she knew he would be there and then calling 911 — twice — and making stuff up both times.
She conveniently left some stuff in the house so she could justify going back to it.
After the kerfulffle in the house GZ leaves and goes out to the vehicle and she follows him out there and calls again claiming to hear and see stuff from over 100 feet away.
When the police arrive she refuses to give them a statement to back up her 911 call, only later to sign a statement that she never saw a gun.
And the media say that she is not pressing charges. It sounds like GZ and the police should be pressing charges against her.
And listen on the tape how she bosses her father around — “get in here, dad”.
