George Zimmerman, aggravated assault, Trayvon Marin, Florida

George Zimmerman, the man responsible for the death of Trayvon Martin who was acquitted under the Florida Stand Your Ground Law because he had injuries and acted in self defense, has been arrested again. At 9:45 pm on Friday night George Zimmerman was booked shortly after arrest at the Sanford John E. Polk Correctional Facility, and he was scheduled to appear before a judge Saturday morning. Police were called to a residence for a domestic violence dispute and that was when Zimmerman was arrested. Seminole County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Kim Cannaday told reporters “It will most likely be a domestic violence charge.” When George Zimmerman shot Trayvon Martin on a rainy night he was acting as a neighborhood watch, and there were visible injuries showing that there was a scuffle between Zimmerman and Martin. Witnesses said that Martin was on top of Zimmerman and doing a ground and pound, and that was when George shot the teenager.

This is not the first time that George Zimmerman has been arrested or suspected of aggravated assault since he shot Trayvon Martin in Florida. This is the second time that there have been domestic violence allegations against Zimmerman, with the first incident occurring with his wife and father in law after the couple separated and she took her father with her to get some belongings. George was also questioned when a former girlfriend said he pointed a gun at her, but no charges were ever filed against him. Zimmerman was also stopped in both Florida and Texas for speeding.
