The judge in the perjury case against Shellie Zimmerman, wife of the former neighborhood watch volunteer who shot Trayvon Martin to death in February, has set her first court date for July 31st.
Shellie Zimmerman is accused of lying to the court about the couple’s finances, and of using a “rudimentary code” during dozens of phonecalls to her husband while he was incarcerated in a Sanford, Florida jail on second degree murder charges. The couple used the code to discuss transferring more than $135,000 from a PayPal account George Zimmerman set up to collect donations for his living expenses and legal defense, into his and Shellie Zimmerman’s bank accounts, and to the account of at least one family member.
