185. Zimmerman's lies about knowing full well how the STG law works

Reply to GreenStormCloud (Original post)

Jul 2013

reminds me and I don't have a link,about a former co-worker of Zimmerman's description of Zimmy.If I recall correctly the two worked at a car dealership and Zimmy was a prankster who tried to curb his competition by making a co-worker look like a bad guy.

The c0-worker of Zimmerman's described him as two faced lying sack of shit who will say anything to support his lies.
The guy essentially give a description of a narcissistic sociopath.
He believed that based on his experiences with Zimmerman that Zimmerman will probably get away with the crime. The article was published early on .

The description of Zimmerman actually fits the investigating cops two sided view of Zimmerman's story- he's either a very good lier or he's telling the truth. Same cop that testified the other day who's bottom line rec. was charge him with manslaughter.
That bottom line means more than you think.

The fact that Zimmerman knew full well how the STG law works than lied about it seems to support the notion that Zimmerman fabricated a story that he thought was full proof-,
I want to add to that ,-that if he is a sociopath and I think he is, than Zimmerman most likely figured nobody of authority would look into his course studies in attempt to get an angle on his mind set. you know police agencies don't always share information -,he may have figured that they wouldn't have any reason to conduct a full investigation of the shooting because he thought his story was full proof. Little did he know national outrage and massive media coverage would soon be on his trail.

It is always the unforeseeable- things that happen that they cannot see as a possible obstacle to either lie over or groom over as it occurs.Socio's are groomers.

Zimmerman's lies about the co-worker and his sick twisted need to destroy the man were all told to management at the car dealership he worked for.

Again Zimmerman was described as a two faced balded faced lier on a mission.
Here's the catch-the co-worker went on to say ,he always gets away with it.
Zimmerman alway gets away with it.
