George Zimmerman Accused of Stealing Furniture from Wife

George Zimmerman's mother-in-law called police after finding furniture missing from the home she rented to the estranged couple, according to UPI.

Lake Mary Police said they were called to the home George and Shellie Zimmerman rented from Shellie's parents, Machelle and David Dean Thursday. "We have a complaint that there are some items missing from 300 Sprucewood," said police spokesman Zach Hudson.

"There was some damage to the house. Who committed that damage, I don't know. Was it there before hand, I don't know. We're trying to figure out exactly what we have here." Hudson said George Zimmerman was supposed to vacate the house by Thursday, and when the Deans came by to inspect it, they found furniture and a television missing and unknown damage.

Shellie Zimmerman was out of town Thursday when the supposed theft took place. George Zimmerman has been involved in several run-ins with the police since his acquittal in the trial in which he was accused of murdering unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin. Twice since the end of the trial, Zimmerman has been pulled over for speeding twice. Shellie Zimmerman filed for divorce earlier this month, and a few days later, he was arrested and briefly taken into custody after an incident at the same home police visited Thursday.

She told police Zimmerman punched her father in the nose and smashed her iPad, threatening her while putting his hand on his gun. She also declined to press charges.
