Prosecutors released recordings of jailhouse calls Monday made between George Zimmerman and his wife in which prosecutors say they discuss their family’s finances. Among the calls is one in which Zimmerman instructs his wife to buy and wear a bulletproof vest. Shellie Zimmerman was arrested and released on $1,000 bond last week for allegedly perjuring herself while testifying on her family’s financial situation in April. Also last week, prosecutors said in court documents that the 25-year-old woman had called her husband and discussed how much money the couple had before an April 20 hearing at which she essentially said that the family was penniless. Prosecutors say that the calls of which recordings have been released were in a code that allowed the couple to discuss the movement of substantial funds between among family bank accounts. The Orlando Sentinel released a transcript of one of the calls.
