Gal Tziperman Lotan wrote:George Zimmerman accused of stalking, threatening private investigator



ORLANDO, Fla. — George Zimmerman has been charged with stalking a private investigator who contacted him about a documentary series on Trayvon Martin produced by the rapper Jay-Z, court records show.

Zimmerman was charged with misdemeanor stalking through a summons delivered to him on Thursday, said Todd Brown, spokesman for the Brevard and Seminole County judicial circuit.

The private investigator told Seminole County deputies that he had contacted Zimmerman in September on behalf of the series' executive producer, Michael Gasparro, and gave Zimmerman his information.

Zimmerman soon called Gasparro and talked about the documentary series, which will be about 17-year-old Trayvon Martin's life and his 2012 death, for which Zimmerman was acquitted of second-degree murder.

The private investigator told deputies he did not hear from Zimmerman again until December. Gasparro called him and said Zimmerman was "extremely agitated" and sending Gasparro threatening messages, deputies wrote in the request for a warrant.

"(The private investigator) is a (expletive) WHO BOTHERED MY UNCLE IN HIS HOME. Local OR former law officer He's well on his way to the inside of a gator as well. 10-4?" Zimmerman wrote to Gasparro, using the police code to ask if he understood or acknowledged the message.

Between Dec. 16, 2017, and Christmas Day, the private investigator told deputies he got 55 phone calls, 67 text messages, 36 voicemails and 27 emails from Zimmerman, records show.

When the investigator asked him to stop, Zimmerman texted "NO!" and then "Pursue charges," records show.

This is not the first time Zimmerman reportedly threatened to feed someone involved in the documentary series' production to an alligator: In December he made the same threat about Jay-Z himself.

"What I said is I would beat him as if I was Solange, and he would find himself coming out of the south side of a gator if he comes to Florida and bothers my family," Zimmerman told the Orlando Sentinel in December. Solange is the sister of Jay-Z's wife, Beyonce. Solange was captured on an elevator surveillance camera hitting Jay-Z after the Met Gala in 2014.

Zimmerman is scheduled for an arraignment May 30 in the Seminole County Courthouse.

Zimmerman went way overboard with repeated phone calls. That being said, other sites have stated there were multiple requests and contacts made to Zimmerman and his family about this "documentary".

Personally, I find any "documentary" put together by Jay-Z to have a less than average chance of being unbiased. I'd also be relatively upset if repeated attempts to interview me were made to either me or my extended family.

I'm not saying Zimmerman is a good guy, that he didn't do anything wrong, or that he didn't over react, but even loosers have a right to not be hounded.

Zimmerman does plenty on his own to get himself back in the spotlight over and over again.

Heck, I would argue that Casey Anthony was a much more notorious case but she has managed to not have even remotely near the attention that Zimmerman has managed to find himself in.

Well thats fair enough though i think its on the general media not to put on spot light on it otherwise you feed into what he wants.

Wait why would a production for a documentary use a PI to go get info instead of going directly to zimmerman.

honest question: is this normal procedure? wouldn't a production just ask for permission for an interview?

Does he have an Iphone? he could have just blocked the number after the first 3-4 calls and texts and said..."eh - I don't think he want's to cooperate with this documentary" (which ofc he didn't). Ofc though - he has an agenda. Which is to stir flames by poking a bear with a stick. I imagine Zimmerman is quite a paranoid man at this point and just wants to be left alone.

My assumption would be that they tried that and Zman told them to gak off. So they went to plan B.

I'm guessing that even Zimmerman might not be dumb enough just go around and advertise:

G. Zimmerman
42 Wallaby Way
Sydney

So if you want to ask permission for an interview, you need to find him first. There is nothing illegal about finding a guy who wants to lay low.

I think the guy might be a little cuckoo - what do you think? Perhaps driven mad by hundreds of thousands of death threats and being the most hated man in america.

Well not saying it was illegal. also guess that makes sense though if he wanted to be left alone then he should of been left alone. he alone is fine and all but also contacting family and friends just puts pressure on a man that is definitely paranoid and probably is constantly harassed.

Maybe he's always been a gakky human being. Maybe he was Father Theresa before he killed a guy. Maybe he's just a permanent victim of life.

Perhaps - hard to see a PI as being a victim ever. Again...when I don't want to talk to someone - I just block their number. It takes 12 seconds. Zimmermans crime here is victim-less.

Makes you wonder if there is any possible way for Zimmerman to avoid being contacted by someone he doesn't want to talk to.
