George Zimmerman is as we all know the 28-year-old man who killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida on February 26, 2012, Zimmerman alleged that he did it in self defense, but after a long investigation and statements from witnesses, the possibility that young Trayvon was a threat to an armed man seems unlikely.
George Zimmerman is married to his wife of six years 26-year-old Shellie Zimmerman a licensed cosmetologist specializing in facials and nursing student, in the fall of 2008 Shellie enrolled at Seminole State College but by the fall of 010 she left the school.
Shellie Nicole Dean aka Shellie Zimmerman was born in 1987 in Longwood, Florida. She and George got married in Daytona Beach, FL in November, 2007 she was 20 at the time, George was 24. The newlyweds struggle with finances early in their marriage, first he was sued for failing to pay a credit card bill, and then Shellie was sued for the same thing.
Shellie told the judge they lived for years in a house owned by her parents adding that she and her husband were nearly broke at a bond hearing April 20. TheRealGeorgeZimmerman.com was created in April, 2012 and thru PayPal supporters of Zimmerman could made donations.
George told Shellie to transfer $74,000 out of the $130.000 in a Paypal account to hers so she could pay the bills, in addition to that Zimmerman’ sister transferred $47.000, when this was discovered Shellie Zimmerman was charged with perjury by Special Prosecutor Angela Corey; she was released from Seminole County Jail after posting $1,000 bail.
