George Zimmerman’s wife: 'I have doubts but I also believe the evidence'
Today.com ^ | 9/26/13 | Scott Stump

In the midst of divorce proceedings against husband George Zimmerman, Shellie Zimmerman said she has doubts about what really happened in the shooting death of Florida teen Trayvon Martin last year, she told Matt Lauer in an exclusive interview.

"I'm conflicted on that,'' Shellie told Lauer on TODAY Thursday. "I believe the evidence, but this revelation in my life has really helped me take the blinders off and start to see things differently."

Lauer pressed further, asking, "So you now doubt his innocence, at least the fact that he was acting in self-defense on the night that Trayvon Martin was killed?"

"I think anyone would doubt that innocence because I don't know the person that I've been married to," Shellie responded. "I have doubts, but I also believe the evidence."

Despite these doubts, Shellie vehemently denies that George profiled the teen.

"He did not profile Trayvon Martin," she said.

The "revelation" Shellie referenced came after a domestic dispute between the Zimmermans.

On Sept. 9, authorities in Lake Mary, Fla., were summoned to the house the couple once rented from Shellie’s father, after she called 911 to report George was threatening her with a gun, according to police reports, which provide a conflicting picture of the sequence of events. Neither side filed a complaint over the incident, and Shellie said that she now wishes she had pressed charges.

"In hindsight I should've, and I really regret that, but I'm on probation and the officers made it very clear that day if I pressed charges we were all going to go to jail and I would've been the only one to stay there,'' she told Lauer.

TODAY reached out to George Zimmerman's representatives, and they said they were not interested in commenting.

Didn't her 15 minutes of fame expire? I'm surprised she didn't appear on Oprah yet.

She will get there when the time is right.

“she has her doubts”....I guess that would be a reasonable one, right, therefore, not guilty.

She’s a nasty vindictive beotch going through a divorce she’s making as messy as possible. I wouldn’t believe a word she says.

The corrupt MSM exploiting a divorced women's vested interest in clawing back at her former spouse. They don't miss a trick do they? She appears exceedingly vindictive and the corrupt MSM are all to happy to hand her a microphone.

Run, George, RUN!! Leave your past life in the dust. Leave the shrew - give her everything she wants, just get out and consider it a blessing. Move to Wyoming, where the deer and the antelope play and good guys shoot bad guys! They’ll welcome you there. And for heaven’s sake, change your name to Smith or something. And keep that lawyer who is working on your behalf a phone-call close.

She is an idiot, Zimmerman was slandered and libeled by a major media organization and there will be a pay day there and there will be other ways he gets big checks. She would be well advised to keep her trap shut if she wants any of the money Zimmerman may see.

Personally, I think we should dress George up as Mad Max and give him the same car along with a shotgun and a lot of shells and set him lose in parts of Detroit and Chicago. Travon Martin was a thug and it does not matter what color he was at some point someone was going to turn his lights out or he was going to kill someone else. Zimmerman stopped the latter from happening.

Sorry America, many of us have sense and can read and we understand that a thug is a thug is a thug.

She’s on probation? Interesting.

“In hindsight I should’ve, and I really regret that, but I’m on probation and the officers made it very clear that day if I pressed charges we were all going to go to jail and I would’ve been the only one to stay there,’’ she told Lauer

Are you kidding me? Zimmerman is suing NBC. The way this woman is shooting her mouth off she's providing them with tons of material for their defense. The Today Show will provide her with a forum on demand.

Based on history, I would like to see the unedited version of this interview.

"(Ted) Turner proposed “men be barred from political office. They could do everything else, be president of universities, business leaders, but they just couldn’t serve in any elected position for 100 years”"

Dear Ted:

Zimm's wife is a prime example of why your suggestion is TOTALLY RETARDED.

All part of divorce tactics tying to squeeze more $ out of George...and the only thing her comments prove is she has a typical run of the mill divorce lawyer.
