Jodi isn't having it....Judge is going over what allocution is to Jodi and how it's her chance. She can't allocute in a sealed proceeding

Troy Hayden ‏@troyhaydenfox10 41s41 seconds ago​

So bottom line here, Arias will not tell the jury why her life should be spared if public is allowed to watch. Odd move. #JodiArias


Jarrett Seltzer ‏@JarrettSeltzer 41s41 seconds ago​

Twitter doesn't support the word Allocute spelling wise and I think it's messing with all of us #jodiarias


Beth Karas ‏@BethKaras 55s55 seconds ago​

#JodiArias just made a voluntary waiver of her right to allocute to the jury to express remorse, explain the crime, and plead for mercy.

[Spellbound]

So unless I am mistaken, the jury got to see two papers during this entire day?

JA is nuts.... apparently even she doesn't feel her life is worth asking for mercy. If she thinks it will make a good appeal, she is woefully mistaken.

 

[floridagld]

Wowza...what a day! All in all I am pleased as pie.

The tweet from Tammy Rose - can she do that?

I don't want anything to happen and give the defense any fuel for mistrial.

Is this the same person who said they are recording?

I hope this is all ok - we are soooo close to the end of this trial.
