Agree (as I posted above) that it doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the case - she made claims of racism, but the state hasn’t turned up any other evidence to support it. Highly doubt W#9 would ever be called to trial.
But she came to the state of her own accord. It’s not like the state went witch-hunting.
She is a fruit cake, because she called the police hysterically alleging that Zimmerman hated black people and was the type to start a confrontation with one. And then provided no evidence of either of her claims about him.
"Had she seen George Zimmerman disparage blacks or act as if he hated them, she was asked.
No, she said."
Also, Zimmerman was only a few years older than her at most, so it’s not like “molestation” in the traditional sense of the word- if it’s even true. Not to mention, the whole thing is irrelevant and never should have been released.
Oh, I’m sorry - I didn’t realize that molestation only counted if the age difference was a certain number of years.
How many years, exactly, is it? Three? Five?
Hmm. That’s rather plausible, although not relevant to this case. It will be interesting to see if it goes any further. I saw no mention of racism in that article, though.
Is there any empirical evidence that GZ has ever even met witness number 9?
You mean besides being a family member?
Its a family member, duh. You need evidence that George has met his family? Jeeze.
What I said was that it was not molestation in the traditional sense of the word. He is less than two years older than her and the media is reporting it as though he molested a little girl as she grew up. In most people’s minds, you can’t be a “child molestor” if you are a child yourself. Maybe he touched her naughty parts. Maybe she touched his. Whatever.. stuff happens when you’re growing up.
“Stuff happens when you are growing up”. Really. Wow.
Did she ask to be molested? Was she a willing participant?
Are you really saying no big deal about a child being touched and fondled for years against her wishes by an older family member? Even if it is only a few years?
Are you really saying that?
I was thinking that you Zimmerman apologizers had very weak moral makeup, but now it seems that at least some of you have none at all.
Wow. I don’t really know how you can possibly go any lower from here in trying to stick up for this guy. Unbelievable.
Sure, maybe. Who knows?
According to her story, George Zimmerman started molesting her when he was seven or eight years old. As I say, stuff happens when you grow up.
I’m having trouble comparing Zimmerman to Sandusky. Sorry. Take some deep breaths and try to conserve your outrage over the long haul.
I look forward to seeing how the media reports this.
A 7-8yr old playing ‘show me yours and I’ll show you mine’ once or twice? Sure, I can see that and not call it ‘molestation’
I start drawing the line at 12-14, and most certainly at 16-18.
You seriously think George was just ‘playing doctor’ with his junior high school student relative when he had already graduated from high school?
Wow. I mean, just…wow.
But it’s not about the injuries, it’s about fear, iirc. Fear isn’t exactly documentable either and the only witness left to GZ’s fear is GZ.
To me it seems to be in the same boat evidence-wise, but weaker in its implications.
Does he actually claim that his injuries put him in that fear? Or does he claim that GZ’s GZ declaration and reaching for his gun put him in that fear?
'Cause afaict, GZ is just laying there like a sack of meat until TM goes for GZ’s gun.
According to GZ, iirc, GZ had the gun at his disposal the whole time and doesn’t go for it until that point.
So, does GZ actually come out and attribute his fear to the injuries?
If not, I am inclined to believe that TM going for the gun is what caused GZ to fear for his life.
Are you new or something? That’s quite the categorical claim.
He was 8 and she was 6. I think there’s some pretty far-fetched reaching going on here.
If these allegations are even true, it obviously started innocently- unless you think Zimmerman was a sociopath at age 7-8. And you’re telling me at age 15, she was “molested” by a 16 or 17 year old and was too scared to report it to someone if it really bothered her?
I have no idea what happened. Neither do you. Chances are there is a lot more to the story than just her side of it. Whatever the case, it has absolutely nothing to do with February 26th, unless you want to argue that Zimmerman was trying to touch Martin’s pee-pee.
Yeah … sorry, but everything you post in this thread from now on will have this exchange casting a pall over it for me. Your opinions just lost any shred of credibility that they may have had before this. To be honest, I probably won’t be able to take anything you say seriously from here on out now that you’ve shown this side of your character to us.
By the way, who compared him to Jerry Sandusky? I mean, its true, they both touched children against their wishes, but you’re the only one making that comparison as far as I can tell. Also, fyi, saying that George is not Jerry Sandusky isn’t really much of a defense. He isn’t Jeffrey Dahmer either, but that doesn’t mean he’s a good guy. There’s a whole lot of room between Sandusky and a model citizen you know. The world isn’t divided neatly into white and black like that.
If he was 2 years older, than when she was 16, he would have been 18, an adult. You don’t think an 18 year old adult molesting his minor relative against her wishes is a sign of poor character?
And you don’t understand why someone would be afraid to tell someone about their older relative doing things like this? Almost every sexual abuse victim is afraid to talk about what happened. Especially when it is a family member. How are you more confused about her not telling on him than you are about him doing it in the first place?
Good lord.
I have a lot of cousins I’ve never met. Why didn’t they contact this person’s sister, to see if they had visited the Zimmermans on the claimed dates? Or her parents? If they had, that should be part of the statement. If the parents had confronted Zimmerman in an eatery regarding alleged molestation, they shouldn’t have had any problems finding out.
No, and yes. In the category of serious injuries, one will find broken noses and head trauma.
Yes, it’s extremely plausible. That’s what tends to happen in sexual abuse cases.
Absolutely correct. So, you don’t need to pretend it’s impossible that Zimmerman is a molester or any other form of arsehole to continue claiming he’s not guilty of murder.
