George Zimmerman's Wife, Shellie, Arrested on Perjury Charge

The wife of George Zimmerman, the Florida man charged with second-degree murder for the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, was arrested today and charged with perjury.
Seminole County sheriffs picked up Shellie Zimmerman at the home where she was in hiding on one count of perjury, the latest fallout from a series of taped conversations that landed her husband back behind bars a week and a half ago.

It took a little more than an hour for Mrs. Zimmerman, 25, to pay the $1,000 bond after prosecutors filed a warrant contending that she "knowingly made a false statement" during her husband's initial bond hearing on April 20.

On April 9, George Zimmerman had launched the website therealgeorgezimmerman.com and within weeks received more than $200,000 in donations to help with his legal expenses. But during the bond hearing on April 20, Zimmerman's wife testified that the couple was financially indigent.
Appearing via telephone due to fear for her life when asked by her husband's attorney Mark O'Mara if they add any major financial assets, she responded no.
