Saturday Night Live joined South Park this weekend by sticking it to George Zimmerman. The sketch comedy show blasted the acquitted killer, after his most recent arrest for assaulting his current girlfriend. Zimmerman was released on bond, but not before his 2nd Amendment gun rights could be revoked.
SNL leading man, Taran Killam, played CNN’s Piers Morgan in Saturday’s parody of George Zimmerman. Zimmerman was charged with felony aggravated assault, last Monday, for allegedly holding a gun on his current girlfriend, Samantha Scheibe.
SNL’s Kate McKinnon mocked Scheibe for dating the infamous killer. In the sketch, Mckinnon as Scheibe quipped.
"George wants to have a shotgun wedding. And by that I mean he's marrying his gun."
The real life Scheibe has been accused of setting Zimmerman up after it was revealed that she was refusing to appear on camera without payment. Last week, WKMG's Channel 6 reporter Erik Sandoval commented on the issue:
"I did actually speak to her at noon today after our story aired last night at 11. She wants to make it absolutely clear. She says that she and her daughter did not set Zimmerman up for what happened on Monday at her home in Apopka."
SNL’s Mike O'Brien appeared as Men's Wearhouse founder George Zimmer, who is often confused with the similarly named Zimmerman:
"I do not like the way he's making me look--I guarantee it. He's dragging the first two-thirds of my name through the mud. I keep telling people, I'm not George Zimmerman, I'm George Zimmer--man!"
Zimmerman's soon-to-be ex wife, Shellie, recently spoke to NBC's Matt Lauer on the Today Show:
"This person that I'm married to that I'm divorcing, I've kind of realized now that I don't know him. And I really don't know what he's capable of."
She went on to add that she was unsure if the Trayvon Martin slaying was indeed in self defense:
"I'm conflicted on that. I believe the evidence, but this revelation in my life has really helped me to take the blinders off."
