Story is still new and I am VERY aware not all of the details are determined to be facts yet but.......

Apparently Zimmerman is being detained after his soon to be ex-wife called the police on him after an altercation at her parents house. He allegedly threatened he and he father while holding his gun (not pointing it but with his hand on the butt of it).

Seems she just did an interview on GMA about his temper and behavior....seems he is proving her story true.

It's too bad he wasn't prosecuted and convicted of his previous domestic crimes. If he had, he wouldn't have legally been able to possess a firearm at the time Trayvon was killed.

Doesn't surprise me though. Guy doesn't seem very bright.

Who knows what happened though. They were likely both acting out. It happens, a lot. Especilly when I read he was just told to stay home?

It does happen, but this is not is first domestic assault issue which to me makes probable pattern.

Not just the woman, the news I saw said the ex-wife and her father declined to press charges, so there were no charges to drop. Also said Zimmerman and ex-wife had gotten into the argument over splitting their household for the divorce.

Supposedly, there was a city worker who witnessed most of the altercation, I would like to hear from that, hopefully, unbiased party, rather than believe the accounts of either Zimmerman or his wife.
