In the law, sometimes people get a deal whereas Charges are Filed, but if they don’t get in trouble with the law for a period of say a year, the Charges are Dropped.
But there is no reason to try to work this out semantically.
Apparently the article says both.
“Charges filed” and “Charges not filed.”

It’s not hard to grasp either that he has nonetheless, a history of run-ins with the law. He may have escaped conviction but we also have a tragedy involving him.

It is difficult for me to grasp that he was innocent of assault since he was required to undergo rehab and since his fiancée was granted a restraining order. He may not have been sentenced to jail time in court, but nevertheless the court has issued orders against his violent activities. Why would a judge issue these orders against him unless there was some reason to fear his acting violently in the future?

I think what they are talking about is the Civil petition filed by the ex making the allegation of domestic abuse. No criminal charges were filed.
Criminal charges are the only way you can get a conviction. And without a conviction, there is no justification for refusing a concealed carry permit. You cannot deprive someone of their rights based on rumor and accusations. Anyone can make accusations, it doesn’t mean they are true.

Yes, and the guy who was involved in this “Self-Defense” with 4 minutes where nobody knows what was going on except for the Defendant was charged with Domestic Violence, 2 felonies of “resisting officer with violence” and “battery of law enforcement officer,”.
So, I believe it is true that this constitutes a Criminal Record nonetheless.
I know some people say, one still has a “jacket”, it indicates all things you have been brought in for, even if not convicted.
This goes a bit beyond “accusations and rumors”.

A restraining order is not proof that the allegations were true.
To keep a bickering couple out of his courtroom.
Some judges issue civil protection orders for the asking. They have no affect on anyone’s criminal record unless they are violated, which doesn’t appear to have happened.

Charges are not convictions. There is no proof that he did what he was accused of doing. Convictions are the only things that matter.

In which he was found NOT GUILTY by reason of self-defense.

I agree with this statement. We don’t know for sure what happened because we must trust Zimmerman’s self-serving statements.
You should be consistant
If you don’t know what happened because you only have his statement, than you can’t trust Zauzo for the same reason.

Can you prove that Zauzo was lying? She has her sworn statement and no one has proven that it was false. Did Zimmerman ever deny that he slapped her around?

I don’t think that convictions are the only things that matter. For example, suppose that you have stolen $1000 from a neighbor, but he is unable to convict you. You may be innocent according to a legal system, but you are still guilty of having stolen $1000 and you are bound under the moral law of God to return the money that you have stolen, even though you were never convicted of the crime.

It goes against the “meek Mild” Zimmerman his defense attorney portrayed him as.

“trolling her neighborhood to check on her.” Hmmmmmm.
That sounds familiar.

we have a right to feel safe in our neighborhoods. neighborhood watches have been around for many years. George Zimmerman had the right to protect his neighborhood.
he had the right to report someone suspicious. unless you have lived in a neighborhood that has high crime, you do not understand how you are suspicious and you have to learn to trust your instinct in order NOT to become a victim.
I don’t know what provoked a 17 year old to punch George Zimmerman and get him on the ground and hit his head against the cement over and over.
the person posting the criminal record online. is he sure it is the same George Zimmerman? I believe Trayvon Martin had had his own run ins with the law.
what is done is done. the president and eric holder and the NAACP talk of changing laws.
how about making our neighborhoods safe again? what about the number of youths this day and age that get into trouble before they are even 15 years old? what is causing that?
I think there are other places we need to look other than changing laws so we can get the verdict we want.

Can you prove she was telling the truth?
My point was not who was telling the truth but that if you are going to doubt one story you have to use the same criteria on another. If you are not going to accept one story because it is one sided than you shouldn’t accept another one sided story.
