The police did what they had to do from the complaint. They had him at gun point to disarm him if necessary. Police aren't so stupid to just shoot someone from what is related to them from a 911 call.

In the "Fog" of a police take down ANYTHING can happen. There was an awful lot of shouting.. and some confusion seen on Dash cam. I can EASILY imagine George innocently moving an arm down towards his waist and being shot. Police training not withstanding... tragedies have often occurred!

What I am saying is that an "accident" could have happened anyway... but Shellie's hysterical warning about George actually SEEN with a gun and threatening made it much much worse.

Shellie is extremely lucky.

I don't see police take downs as done in a fog. They are trained for just that.

Shellie is extremely upset over the blond. If she didn't love him and wasn't jealous, she wouldn't be upset.

Except in Vegas.

The way Sims tells it, and apparently has the text messages to prove it, is that GZ knew SZ was back at the house collecting more belongings. The mutual agreement seemed to be that they would avoid each other at that house, yet he showed up.

Under the circumstances, I would find that a bit threatening if I was Shellie. She doesn't feel she knows the dude anymore. He shows up unannounced and starts filming or questioning what she's taking, if reports are to be believed. He's got a huge friend/bodyguard with him, and as it turns out, "Samantha" was also along for the ride.

I would be very jumpy around someone I had been married to who was now acting like someone I didn't know at all.

I don't think Shellie consiously tried to get George killed?

I don't think she thought much at all.... that is my point. If she is so stupid she needs to pause.. seek better advice than she is apparently getting from her father and and divorce lawyer. As I outline... because of the potential in this instance for an "accident" during Cop call out... but also for her own sake.. she is on probation and could wind up doing prison time.

I don't see police take downs as done in a fog. They are trained for just that.

Shellie is extremely upset over the blond. If she didn't love him and wasn't jealous, she wouldn't be upset.

Rumpole, at Stately McDaniel Manor, Mike has given extensive coverage to a case similar to what you describe; conflicting orders from LE, etc., the Erik Scott case.

<snipped to address>

She is not violating her probation by calling police. Just saying.......

Trained or not I think that we can all agree having a loaded firearm pointed at you is considered a life threatening situation, Just slightly less life threatening when properly trained individuals hold the weapon.

JanC- my question is who was allotted that time to be there. It matters not to me if someone had additional things they wanted to collect. If SZ decided to be there during GZ allotted time anything she saw (including the other woman) or that happened is firmly on her own shoulders.
Under the circumstances I would also feel a bit threatened if I was GZ. First a divorce announced, then having to go into the woman's parents property to receive my things. In fact I would bring additional people as witnesses just to clarify the situation.... Just imagine how this would have turned out if GZ was alone there. with absolutely nobody to counter the 911 call.. also notice that the SZ story became much more moderated after the security footage was volunteered by GZ.

Did you all notice the times of the text messages between George and Shellie?

http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/754/8634383600.png

BTW this screen shot came from Christi O’Connor’s website about George. She had it posted on there just a few hours after the incident. That’s how HLN got the pictures of Shellie’s Dad and laptop that night!

At 9:43 AM on Sept. 9th Shellie Says she will be at the house in 20 minutes
At 11:34 am George asks her if she is gone (proof he tried staying away till she left)
Somewhere between 11:34 am and 11:55 am Shellie tells George she isn’t there yet.
At 11:55 am George says OK and for her to let him know when she is gone. (again proving he was trying to stay away)

The 911 call was at 2:10 pm. Why did she need all day to remove a few items? If you notice during the entire security video (which is really a video of a video) not one thing was placed in Shellie’s Dad’s truck. From the police report, George says he saw things in the truck Shellie was not suppose to take so he took pictures of them and took pictures inside the truck too.

If Shellie was in such fear of George shooting them as she claims, then why near the end of the video do you see Shellie who was talking on phone most likely to 911, her Dad and their helper, all follow George to his truck that was parked out in the street? A fearful person would NOT do that!!!

I also noticed in the report it said that Shellie’s father said to George during the confrontation… “Are you going to shoot me too?” Which you know damn well was in reference to Trayvon and said only to provoke George!

As for the news conference this afternoon. Her attorney is an idiot! First he makes reference to him being Batman pulling up in his Batmobile, he constantly refers to George’s friend as being the 400 pound man, blathers on about Shellie losing 30 pounds, makes numerous references to George shooting them and comparing it to Clint Eastwood somehow. It was stupid and his jokes made me long for Don Wests Knock Knock joke again. Meanwhile Shellie stood there all doe eyed while looking at her attorney.

Oh and the best part was Sims said that in many cases when someone tells the police they saw the person with a gun, whether a gun is found or not, that person would go to jail and that there are many people sitting in jail for 5 years because someone said they saw a gun and yet there never was one found.
