ORLANDO, Fla. — A woman told authorities that when she was a little girl, murder suspect George Zimmerman sexually molested her for a decade, according to prosecution records released on Monday.
The woman, identified as “witness 9,” said the abuse started when she was 6 and ended when she was 16.
On Monday, Special Prosecutor Angela Corey released witness 9's statement plus 120 recorded jail phone calls made by Zimmerman when he was in the Seminole County Jail.
In an audio-recorded interview released, she said Zimmerman's family “don't like black people if they don't act like white people. They like black people if they act white.”
Had she seen George Zimmerman act with hostility toward a black person, she was asked.
No, she said.
Witness 9 told prosecutors the molestation began when her parents were moving to another state and she and her sister were sent to stay with Zimmerman's family in Virginia.
“We would all lay in front of the TV” to watch movies, she said, “and he would reach under the blankets and try to do things. I would try to push him off, but he was bigger and stronger and older,” she said.
The last sexual encounter, she said, happened when she visited Zimmerman's family in Lake Mary. He directed her to lie on a bed and began to massage her, she said.
“I just got up, and I ran out of the house, and I got in my car,” she said.
