zimmerman's new attorney, said zimmerman would likely get his guns back once exonerated. >> he maintaineder: an arsenal that may have grown since unknown neighborhood watchman shot and killed 17-year-old martin in the gated community where zimmerman lived. and martin was staying. but even after his high profile, five-weektion nationally televised trial, the controversial acquittal. >> not guilty. >> zimmerman hardly seemed to stay low. his past few months a pageant of mug shots and police video. one weapons charge. two domesticated relations. and three traffic violations. all within the space of four months. in fact, there is a virtual video gallery of his run-ins with cops. >> you went by me, the tag cover. you have the tinted tag cover on. >> i stopped you for speed. >> reporter: his recent round of troubles began in july when trouble seemed to find him. he and another driver came across a rolled over suv at this florida highway interchange. they stopped and rushed to help the family trapped in the ford explorer. there were not one, not two, but three traffic stops. one for overly tinte

zimmerman.ing in right now. stand by for a moment. let's see if this is about to begin. there's george zimmerman appearing at the podium in handcuffs i believe. >> mr. dowdy, should i begin? >> you can begin, your honor. we're all set. thank you, judge. >> all right. good afternoon, mr. zimmerman. i am judge schott. today we're having first appearance everybody arrested in the state of florida is entitled to see a judge the day following their arrest. the initial purpose of this hearing is to determine whether there is probably cause for the arrest itself. that means whether there are reasonable grounds to believe that a crime may have been committed and that you may have been the person who committed the crime. there are certain things that we have to accomplish today. the first is to make sure you understand the reason or reasons for your arrest. the second is to make sure you receive a copy of the charging document. in your case, it will abarrest report so you and anor your attorneys can prep

she also didn't know where george zimmerman was. this is the day that she was able to finally serve him with divorce papers because he was in jail. >> she had been trying to do that. couldn't find him. we are hearing from people who know george zimmerman better than anyone else. there is his wife shellie zimmerman, saying i don't think i ever really knew him at all. >> right. and think about it. think about his calls to the police. the one that you played at the top of the show. remember that george zimmerman called the police, 46 times before he called about trayvon martin. yesterday he calls to tell his side of the story. he is very calm. relaxed. he says the police are banging on his doors. and windows. but he has all the time in the world to have long pauses and just tell his side of the story. it is almost like his relationship with the police. his relationship with the law enforcement. and a criminal justice system is his primary relationship. and he just can't let go if it. >> joy, george zimmerman is not getting the chorale

threats of violence from george zimmerman wheven zimmerman, when they wanted to end the relationship. it is consistent with domestic violence. >> let's listen to what the judge said, what he called strangulation information, new information, choking information. how that affected his decision on bail. >> those are the special conditions that i belief off to be reasonable. i think that is a reasonable amount based upon the additional allegation of a previous unreported potentially battery by strangulation, that is the reason for the increase in the bond amount. >> joy reid, zimmerman face, usually tells us nothing in this courtroom. >> yeah, that was at least according to the court. that was one of the times he showed any emotion. when strangulation was mentioned. it is important in terms of the bail that he wonder up getting. state asked for $50,000. in part because of that previous incident. and the judge, essentially split the difference, really, in favor of mr. zimmerman. because he had been asking his -- his legal counsel. asking for $4,900. he was indigent. so the bail was split

zimmerman is let off with a warning. a month later on september 3rd, he's pulled over again for speeding, this time in florida. the stop recorded by a camera worn by the officer. he gets a ticket but this time there's no weapon in the car. >> put your hands up. >> then, more serious troubles with the law. >> on your knees. cross your feet. >> reporter: on september 9th, four days after zimmerman's wife shellie files for divorce, she calls 911 and tells authorities that he showed up to her father's house and brandished his firearm. >> he continually has his hand on his gun and he keeps saying step closer. he's just threatening all of us. >> step closer and what? >> and he's going to shoot us. >> okay. >> reporter: police briefly detained zimmerman and never charged him citing insufficient evidence and that brings the post verdict zimmerman saga back to the present in seminole county, florida. >> he's in my house breaking all my [ bleep ] because i told him to leave. you broke my sunglasses and you put your gun in my freak

zimmerman. we're having first appearance. everybody arrested in the state of florida is entitled to see a judge the day following their arrest. the initial purpose of this hearing is to determine whether there's probable cause for the arrest itself. that means whether there are reasonable grounds to believe a crime may have been committed and you may have been the person who committed the crime. there are certain things we have to accomplish today. the first is to make sure you understand the reason or reasons for your arrest. the second is to make sure you receive a copy of the charging document. in your case it will be an arrest report so you and/or your attorneys can prepare for a trial of your case. the third is to make sure you clearly understand all of the rights you're guaranteed as a citizen of this united states. first of all you have the absolute right to have your case tried by a jury of your peers. six individuals will be chosen to decide whether you're guilty or not guilty of the of

it's similar to what shellie zimmerman said in a recent interview she gave about george zimmerman. these are people in his inner circle. we're outside observers. we've watched him and we've examined his behavior and we watched the trial. but these are people in his inner circle. who knows him better than his girlfriend or his wife, the people that he has spent a lot of time with? and it is certainly not uncommon. today we heard the charges, the allegations of the prosecutors said in court about a prior incident with zimmerman strangling this young woman. and that's not uncommon in domestic violence cases. you have a 911 call generally when it's first reported by the alleged victim, that's the floor, not the ceiling in terms of the level of violence in the incidents that have occurred between two individuals. that was actually a positive sign she's corroborating with investigators and prosecutors because she's giving them more information about what has been going on. and i hope she continues to cooperate with the investigation going forward. >> and the judge ordered, ken, that he c

zimmerman. she called 911 after she and george zimmerman were having a break up conversation that led to an argument and that led to george zimmerman getting violent and using a shotgun to break her coffee table and pointing it at her and shoving her out of the door. and he made a 911 call becomely to establish on public record and contradicted and said she broke all of the furniture and not him. this is a bit of the girlfriend's 911 call. >> what is going on? >> he has a gun breaking all of my stuff right now. no. i am doing this again. he broke my sunglasses and put your gun in my face and told me to get the (bleep). no, get out of here. >> george zimmerman facing three charges, one felony and aggravated assault and a domestic violence charge and a criminal mischief charge. 1:30 this afternoon. 18 minutes from now he will face the judge. . >> we'll watch out and bring you a headline. and said to it be arraigned in minutes and returning live to a courthouse and when the judge's decision. >> and

and let's not forget about shelly zimmerman, george zimmerman's soon to be ex-wife. her own 911 call she made two months ago, where again a gun was involved. police were involved. allegations of physical abuse. an allegation that george zimmerman had punched shelly zimmerman's father in the face. but nothing came of that, because no charges were filed. so here we are, find ourselves once again looking at george zimmerman involved -- having interaction with the police with guns involved. but this time, he's back in jail. >> jonathan capehart of "the washington post," i would encourage our viewers to read your column. it was excellent, thank you so much. >> thank you, martin. >> the day's hop lines coming up. the health care rollout versus hurricane katrina? >> katrina. >> hurricane katrina. yes, i believe we have all seen the damning photos of the presidential flyover surveying the human suffering of the healthcare.gov website. from the same system. i'm tony siragusa and i'm training guys who leak a little, to guard their manhood with new depend shields and guards. th

. >>> george zimmerman is out on bail. as you can see, that wasn't his only legal hassle today. >>> a story you won't see anywhere else. a cnn investigation that's literally life and death for anyone that's suspected to have cancer, any wait is too long and medically speaking, some waits can kill. with that as the backdrop, here is the headline. some of america's military veterans, men and women owe a tremendous debt to dying. they are dying because of long waits and needed care at va hospitals. at one hospital patients die for one reason, they were made to wait too long to get a simple colonoscopy. the va has done nothing to prevent veterans dying for care. here is drew griffin keeping them honest. >> reporter: to understand the problems with the va is to start here in colombia, south carolina. where veterans waiting for simple gastrointestinal procedures like colonoscopy have been dying. six so far confirmed and sources tell cnn, the number of vets dead or dying of cancer because they had to wait too long for diagnosis o

if zimmerman is harmed, i blame the president of the united states. >> a good citizen, george zimmerman that had been inundated with crime and burglaries. >> if anybody had a crime committed against him to get this thing started it was zimmerman. >> so why would they champion a man who killed an unarmed 17-year-old? in part, to make a political argument. to oppose gun laws and to support the controversial stand your ground law. many of those same voices have been silent this week. joining me now are jonathan capehart and goldie taylor. george zimmerman has been in the news all week, yet silence from the right. why, jonathan? >> well, could it be that they're embarrassed or embarr s embarrassed by what george zimmerman has been doing since he was found not guilty in july? i mean, this guy has been in our faces and in the news and, you know, involved with law enforcement since july. yeah, they're the parking tickets -- or is it the speeding tickets? that's one thing. but the 911 call from samantha this week, the 911 call from his ex-wife back in september. >> right. >> both domestic viole

looking at the conditions of the zimmerman's bond, $9,000. he can have no contact with his girlfriend. cannot return to the address where this incident happened or alleged incident happened. a third party can go and retrieve his belongings and also the judge indicating no weapons can be on zimmerman's person and no ammunition. as we understand it, weapons were retrieved from the home or at least weapons were in the home when police arrived there. >> and if you were listening to -- not only the 911 call, but during the actual news conference with the attorneys, you heard some questions about who samantha scheibe is pregnant or not pregnant. in the 911 call, george zimmerman says his girlfriend is pregnant. law enforcement specifically deputies with the seminole county's office say in their conference with samantha, she indicated she is not pregnant. i'm not where that is at the end here. there are two different side of the stories. just about everything that took place in the home. as those 911 calls revealed, there was something that resulted

we're talking about george zimmerman. stunningly, zimmerman back in court.is time -- you know, zimmerman is in court this time because his live-in girlfriend claims he pulled a long gun, a shotgun on her and held it right in her face. not only that, physically pushing her out the door. interesting about this, i've been comparing notes. he had a similar blow up with his wife. i think they're still in the process of divorce. >> right, estranged wife. >> yeah, when they were talking about a divorce and they were arguing over belongings then as well. if you'll recall, that was just in september, just a couple months ago and police were called about that. suddenly, somehow it all quietly disappear. we haven't heard a whole lot more about that incident since it happened. there are other incidents, other domestic disturbances as they call them, with other women throughout the past and a brush with a police officer in a bar. so this is not his first incident with police. so i hear you. i'm wondering what you think of this. one camp could say the 911 call he made as
