Florida drops charges against George Zimmerman after ex …

Florida officials on Friday dropped aggravated-assault charges against George Zimmerman after an ex-girlfriend recanted her story that he threw a wine bottle at her, ending the latest brush with the law for the man who was acquitted of fatally shooting an unarmed teenager.

The case is the third involving Zimmermans relations with women since the former neighborhood watch volunteer was acquitted in July 2013 in the killing of Trayvon Martin the year before in Sanford, Fla.

Zimmerman, 31, was arrested Jan. 9 in Lake Mary, Fla., after his girlfriend, Brittany Brunelle, told authorities that he had thrown a wine bottle at her. Zimmerman denied throwing the bottle and disputed her claim that he destroyed her cellphone.

Florida State Atty. Phil Archer said he was dropping the case after Brunelle made it clear that she didnt want to cooperate and that there were no other eyewitnesses in the case.

Zimmerman rose to national notoriety after his fatal confrontation with Martin on Feb. 26, 2012. The shooting set off a debate on race and guns in the United States.

In September 2013, Zimmerman was accused by his estranged wife, Shellie Zimmerman, of smashing an iPad during an argument at the home they had shared.

She initially told a dispatcher her husband had a gun, though she later said he was unarmed. No charges were filed because of lack of evidence.

Two months after that incident, Zimmerman was arrested on charges of aggravated assault, battery and criminal mischief after his then-girlfriend, Samantha Scheibe, said he pointed a gun at her face during an argument, smashed her coffee table and pushed her out of their house.

Scheibe later decided not to cooperate, so authorities dropped the case.

No charges against George Zimmerman for allegedly throwing …

Published January 30, 2015

George Zimmerman won't be charged for allegedly throwing a bottle of wine at his girlfriend, Florida State Attorney Phil Archer said Friday.

Zimmerman, 31, was arrested Jan. 9 for suspicion of aggravated assault inside his parents' Lake Mary residence.

"While it is clear that the officers had probable cause to arrest Mr. Zimmerman which was affirmed by the circuit court judge at initial appearances, the subsequent recantation by the victim of her initial statement along with new documents provided by the victim and her attorney precludes my office from proceeding further," Archer said in a statement.

Neither Zimmerman nor his girlfriend called 911 during the incident. Police learned of the alleged fight when Zimmerman's girlfriend was pulled over during a routine traffic stop and told the officer she was just involved in an altercation with George Zimmerman.

Zimmerman was acquitted of second-degree murder and manslaughter in the February 2012 shooting death of unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin inside a gate community in Sanford, Fla.
