George Zimmerman's wife is now free on a $1,000 bond after she was arrested Tuesday on a perjury charge.

Shellie Zimmerman is accused of lying at her husband's bond hearing about the couple's finances.

At the time, she told the court under oath they didn't have enough money to assist in his defense.

But prosecutors say Zimmerman had $135,000.

Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of Florida teen Trayvon Martin.
