The man who shot Trayvon Martin allegedly choked his girlfriend, prompting a judge to ban him from weapons use. Prosecutors say he has ‘nothing to lose’ and is a public threat.
George Zimmerman attempted to choke his girlfriend 10 days ago and has threatened suicide because he feels he has “nothing to lose,” prosecutors told a Florida judge today. (snip)
Scheibe did not report the alleged choking to police, said the prosecutor, adding, however: “She did fear for her safety on the day of this incident. She indicated that they had been discussing breaking up. He also has mentioned suicide in the recent past. Due to those factors and the defendant indicating at the time he was going to commit suicide, that he had nothing to lose, we feel that the victim’s safety and the community’s safety is our paramount concern.”
Zimmerman is charged with felony aggravated assault, plus one count of misdemeanor battery—for allegedly pushing Scheibe out of her own front door during their row and barricading himself inside—and another of criminal mischief, for allegedly smashing some of her possessions including a glass table.
August 2005, Zimmerman’s former fiancee filed for a restraining order against him, alleging domestic violence. Zimmerman responded by requesting a restraining order against her. Both requests were granted. No criminal charges were filed.
Zimmerman told his girlfriend to leave and smashed a pair of her sunglasses as she walked toward the front door, the report says. Scheibe told deputies he pushed her out of the house when she got close to the door.
"You point your gun at my fricking face," Scheibe is heard telling Zimmerman on a 911 call. "Get out of my house. Do not push me out of my house. Please get out of my house."
Seconds later, she told the dispatcher, "You kidding me? He pushed me out of my house and locked me out. ... He knows how to do this. He knows how to play this game."
Moments later, Zimmerman called 911 from inside the barricaded house to tell his side of the story.
"I have a girlfriend, who for lack of a better word, has gone crazy on me," Zimmerman said.
Zimmerman then said he never pulled a gun on his girlfriend and that it was she who smashed a table at the home they shared. He also told the dispatcher that Scheibe was pregnant with their child and that she had decided she would raise the child on her own. When Zimmerman started to leave, "she got mad," he said.

Quote by Mondobubba:
I have a friend who is a deputy for the JSO. She told me that 12 years on the job she has not had to testify in a single case of domestic violence. She's made arrests, but no one of them has ever been brought to trial.
What does this tell me? That the DA for Jacksonville, Pam Bondi doesn't put a priority on domestic violence prosecutions because they are not easy winners for her office.

I mentioned my friend who's daughter is in abusive relationship yes? My friend is terrified for her daughter, but the kid is deep in the depths of batter spouse syndrome, she won't press charges against the douche. Becki (my friend) is at wit's end. She's done what we hope is the right thing and is doing tough love on her daughter.![]()

Your friend KNOWS that this is happening -- and she can't do a damn thing about it.
(strawman alert) If someone knew that a person was abusing a child, they could call the police -- and an investigation would happen.
That doesn't happen for women in domestic violence situations.
Your friend can't do anything -- and yet everyone knows what's happening.

The way the law is written in this Commonwealth, if you're an authorized Reporting Party (Teacher, Doctor, Youth Leader, things of this nature) and you don't report suspected abuse....they could come after you for negligence.
I do not know how that applies to the battered spouse syndrome, though. Remember Remdawg's son murdering his gf here in Waltham? I know that apartment complex. How could he be this big abusive guy without anybody hearing?

Point of order, I should point out that the daughter in question is a adult, she is closing in on 30.

As a child I heard in my home doctors and ambulance men say, ‘Mrs Stewart, you must have done something to provoke him. Mrs Stewart, it takes two to make an argument.’ Wrong. Wrong. My mother did nothing to provoke that and even if she had, violence is never, ever a choice that a man should make. Ever
Quote by Mondobubba:
Raine, you still looking for a cranberry sauce recipe?
I give you the one from Thug Kitchen:
HOMEMADE CRANBERRY SAUCE
12 ounces of fresh or frozen whole cranberries (a little over 3 cups)
½ cup water
¼ cup orange juice (use the juice of one orange or straight outta the carton, your call I don’t give a fuck)
3-4 tablespoons brown sugar
1 lemon
1 tablespoon bourbon (optional but I already know how you celebrate holidays)
Take a sharp ass knife and cut a sliver of the skin off the lemon about the size and length of your pointer finger. Just try not to get too much of the white part underneath the yellow skin because that shit can be pretty fucking bitter. Add the lemon zest slice and the rest of the ingredients to a medium saucepan and bring them to a gentle simmer over a medium heat. If you like your sauce a little sweeter, add the extra tablespoon of sugar but this bitch will be nice and tart either way. You will hear the cranberries start to burst which might be fucking confusing but it’s fine. Calm your shit. Maybe sip some of that bourbon. Stir every now and then but you want to keep that motherfucker bubbling until most of berries have burst and the sauce is starting to thicken up, about 10-12 minutes. Pull out the piece of lemon zest and let the sauce cool before serving. It will get thicker as it cools. You can cut some more lemon zest and garnish that motherfucker. Make it look all fancy and shit. Your guests will be like “Damn. You see that zest?â€
Serves 4-6 as a sauce. Put it on whateverthefuck you want.
You're welcome.

1. Go to store.
2. Buy can of sauce.
3. Push out of can in log shape, preserving ridges
4. Fight over who gets the end piece with your brother.
5. Squish the entire log and make him cry.
6. Go to your room for rest of dinner.

I have little or no trauma from various relatives. The worst Thanksgiving was the Year of the Thompson Turkey. Which Poppa Mondo insisted we have. Mama Mondo was dubious. There was angry smoking and recrimination in the kitchen of our suburban home and tragically underdone bird.
