Since being acquitted in relation to the death of unarmed teen Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman has had a number of other brushes with the law. He was arrested three weeks ago, after his 28-year-old girlfriend Brittany Brunelle contacted the police about a domestic disturbance.
She’s now recanting her story and telling authorities that she has decided not to cooperate in any ongoing investigations.
According to State Attorney Phil Archer, “While it is clear that the officers had probable cause to arrest Mr. Zimmerman … the subsequent recantation by the victim of her initial statement … precludes my office from proceeding further,” Archer said in a statement.”
