George Zimmerman George Michael Zimmerman was born on October 5, 1983, in Manassas, Virginia, and is the son of Robert Zimmerman Sr, a retired Virginia magistrate, and Peruvian-born Gladys Zimmerman, growing up in what his father described as a "multiracial family". Zimmerman's height and weight was not listed on the Sanford police report, although family friend Joe Oliver said Zimmerman is 5'8" tall and weighs 170 lbs. Zimmerman's voter registration record lists him as Hispanic. In 2009, he moved with his wife to The Retreat at Twin Lakes in Sanford, Florida, a multi-ethnic gated community, where the shooting occurred. He was employed as an insurance underwriter prior to the shooting and attended Seminole State College. His goal was to become a police officer.
Zimmerman's role in the neighborhood watch As the only person to volunteer when the homeowners association wanted to organize a community watch, Zimmerman was appointed coordinator by his neighbors, according to Wendy Dorival, Neighborhood Watch organizer for the Sanford Police Department. The homeowner's association told residents who saw suspicious activity to call Zimmerman if they could not contact the police. "He once caught a thief and an arrest was made," said Cynthia Wibker, secretary of the homeowners association.
