It is curious that they couldn't wait to make a national news story out of him getting a speeding ticket with every nuance of his actions reported in nauseating detail in dozens of news rags ... yet when they have the chance to slap him with a violence beef there is nothing to report, a vacuum of information, except no charges will be filed against him. A decent reporter would have clarified that, but then he might have come out looking clean and we can't have that messing up the message.

It all sounds strange, but it really sounds like the wife & dad may have been the aggressors. It doesn't sound like it from the 911 call: Shellie Zimmerman's 911 call transcript. 911 Operator: 911 Police, Fire, Medical. We have unit surround him, is he still there? Shellie: Yes he is and he's trying to shut the garage door on me. 911 Operator: Is he inside? Shellie: No, he's he continually has his hand on his gun, and he keeps saying "step closer" and he's threating all us with his gun. (paause) Yes he's gonna shoot us. 911 operator: OK Shellie: He punched my dad in the nose and my dad has a mark on his face. I saw his glasses fall were on the floor. And he accosted my father and took my iPad out of my hand and smashed it, cut it with a pocket knife. (deep sigh) And there is a married city worker across the street that I believe saw almost all of it. He's sitting in the truck(?) with me now. He just showed up here and my phone died, but my phone died and I had to call from my father's phone. 911 operator: Ok, that's what I was wondering. I was trying to get you back and it kept going to voice mail. Shellie: Ugh (talking over each other) 911 Operator: Alright (inaudible) in the area where your at. So just stay on the line with me. Shellie: I'm really, really (inaudible) (pauses) Shellie: Ok. (heavy stressed sigh) I don't know what he's capable of, I'm really really scared. (several heavy sighs) 911 Operator: There are multiple units in the area, alright. (inaudible crosstalk) Your name is Shellie right? What's the phone number you're calling on now? Shellie: Oh no, the police are here. 911 Operator: Yeah what is the (inaudible) doing right now? Shellie: He's in his truck, there are police here and weapons drawn. 911 Operator: (inaudible stutter) do you see them. Shellie: I'm sorry 911 Operator: Do you see them? (yelling in the background) Shellie: Uh, yeah, they're telling his bodyguards to get out of the way. (worried excited) Oh my God!, Dad! Dad! Get behind the car or something. I don't know if he's going to start shooting at us or not. 911 Operator: Are you standing outside right now? Shellie: Yes, we are (inaudible)... Dad!, Get inside the house! George might start shooting at us. I don't know., we're going inside the house. 911 Operator: Ok, go back inside. Shellie: Oh my god! (some crosstalk) 911 Operator: Are you guys back inside? Shellie: Yes 911 Operator: Stay inside and let the police take care of it. Shellie: Ok, he's got his hands in the air, he's not touching his weapon. 911 Operator: Ok (cross talking), Does your father need medical? Shellie: She says (pause) Dad do you need medical? He says, He says no, but I think he does. He does need medical, he's shaken, he feels like he's gonna have a heart attack. His nose... Yes you do because you nose look all... It could be broken. I think he should have medical. If you would have an ambulance come. 911 Operator: Sure, they won't be able to approach until the situation outside is secure. Shellie: Ok, ok 911 Operator: Ok Shellie: (panicked) Oh my god! Oh my god! 911 Operator: Ok. (cross talking) Shellie: (panicking) Oh my god! Oh my god! 911 Operator: You guys are safe inside correct? Shellie: (crying) Yes. 911 Operator: Shellie you're doing really good, this is a tough situation for anybody. Stay on the line so our units can speak with you alright. Shellie: Ok 911 Operator: Are you ok? You said he took something out of your hand. Do you need medical as well? Shellie: Um, I don't think so. Maybe just shock. 911 Operator: Ok, ok, I'm gonna get EMT to respond, ok. Shellie: Dad get inside right now. 911 Operator: Make sure he stays inside, until someone comes inside and let you know its ok to step out. Stay inside. Shellie: Ok. 911 Operator: We're getting a (inaudible) to come to you. Like I said they can't come up to check on your father until they secure the scene. Ok. Shellie: Ok, umm. (pause) Hold on one second. 911 Operator: Ok Shellie, take a couple of deep breaths for me, alright. Shellie: Someone's in there. 911 operator: (inaudible) Shellie: (gasping) There's a woman in there! Oh my gah! (other voice Shellie's father(?) Oh my!) 911 Operator: Shellie? (long pause) (garbled), are you 1025 with the complainant ... 1026.
