In an interview with ABC, Shellie Zimmerman said that she had left her husband George the night before the shooting. If you don?t know anything about domestic violence statistics, this might not have set off any alarms. But I do, and suddenly the murder of Trayvon Martin makes so much more sense.
Shellie explained that she wasn?t home that February night, ?I was staying at my father?s house. We had gotten into an argument the night before, and I left.?
The sure thing that will set an abuser off is when the victim leaves. Domestic violence stats reveal that this is the most dangerous time for a woman living with an abuser. It can be lethal.
So Shellie leaves George and the next night, he?s out on the streets looking for someone else to control and abuse, as a substitute for his wife, whom he can?t control at that moment. Nothing irks an abuser more than having control taken away, even for a moment.
Shellie is still sticking by George?s story about that night, though she admits she can?t speak to what was going through his mind since she was gone.
?That?s just not his way,? Shellie answers in response to a question about whether George profiled Trayvon. But clearly it is his way.
George Zimmerman is a predator. He appears to have both abused his former girlfriend and molested his cousin. These are the actions of a predator. A predator stalks their prey, profiles them to find the one least likely to cause repercussions, and then swoops in for the kill. George Zimmerman has been accused of both domestic violence (by a different partner) and molestation of a young female relative. He was also arrested for two third-degree felonies involving assaulting a police officer.
Defenders claim these are all false allegations, but the statistical likelihood of real false allegations is so low as to render it illogical to assume that both of these allegations, made by different women, are false. There are also allegedly other women who refused to come forward out of fear. And then there?s the police officer assault, which is less likely to fall between the ?he said she said? cracks because a male authority figure was the victim of Zimmerman?s rage that time.
Zimmerman chose not to control his rage at the world. It?s likely that he is/was an abuser of his female partners. The cousin identified the Zimmerman family as racist, on top of his fondling of her beginning when she was 6. Six-year-olds are easy targets. Someone who preys on a 6-year-old is a predator.
