George Zimmerman’s cousin accuses him of sexual molestation

ORLANDO, FLA.

George Zimmerman, who is charged in the shooting of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin, was accused by his female cousin of sexually molesting her for a decade beginning when she was 6 years old, according to new documents made public on Monday by prosecutors.

The name of the relative was deleted from an audio tape version of her witness statement that was released to the media. Identified only as Witness No. 9, she would be about age 27 now.

Zimmerman’s lawyer, Mark O’Mara, confirmed the woman was the former neighborhood watch volunteer’s cousin.
