Zimmerman Charged With Aggravated Assault After Allegedly Pointing Gun At Girlfriend

38. I wouldnt get all amped up about this

After having been a cop for 20 years, I can tell you that about 80% of what is said on 911 is a lie/half truth/embellishment etc.

Everyone who calls wants to appear in a better light than the other half of the problem no matter who the suspect is. There are always two sides to every story and everyone always insists they are telling the truth. Any woman who wants to have a relationship with Zimmerman has definitely got issues so odds are this isn't one sided.

I don't know all the facts in this, but just because a police officer has probable cause to make an arrest, doesn't mean there will be a conviction as we have already learned.

I have been attacked while arresting the bad husband/boyfriend by the "victim" enough times to just take all this with a grain of salt as the other half can be crazy too. I have seen women go nuts and stab, shoot and beat their BF / hubby with a bat. One of the last calls like this I went on was some lady walked up to her hubby in the street and took him out with a shotgun in front of the neighbors and they were not even actively fighting- she was just a bitch and all the neighbors said so. She is in prison btw.

This shit happens all day long in this country and all we are worried about is this guy and his likely mentally imbalanced girlfriend. I mean who would even associate with this guy with his known past? Convicted or not, he is a wierdo for sure and I bet she is too.

Unfortunately domestic violence not only involves people with issues, mental problems and such, but many innocent women, children and men as victims. I do have to say though, I hated those calls the most because you never knew who was really telling the truth unless they flat out confess which happens quite a bit. Just a mess and sometimes going into a house and seeing the absolute disaster some peoples lives are with their kids sitting on the couch wailing....makes me sick.

After is all said and done- we the cops no matter how we handle it are just a bunch of assholes...even the victims call us that as we haul off the abuser in handcuffs. They stand there in front of their kids with the steak over their eye telling their crying kids what a bunch of assholes the cops are for arresting dad...........nevermind she is the one who called. Dont know how I survived 20 yrs of that without going nuts. Good thing I just dealt with street crime for the most part.

My bet is this is mutual to some degree. I think we need to worry about more important stuff- Zimmerman will take care of himself and perhaps this is it for him. Ha we can only hope.
