Authorities say the wife of Trayvon Martin’s shooter is being accused of lying to a judge about their finances during a bond hearing and faces one count of perjury. Click below to read the rest of the story.
Shellie Zimmerman was arrested and is in jail custody.
An order issued Tuesday by assistant state attorney John Guy charged Shellie Zimmerman for knowingly making false statements during the April hearing. George Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder in the shooting. He was granted $150,000 bond at that hearing and released.
The judge revoked that bond earlier this month after state attorneys argued that both Zimmerman and his wife had lied to the judge about their finances, especially about money raised from a website. Zimmerman is back in jail.
