In its ruling Wednesday, a three-judge panel wrote that, “The court concludes that the current request is legally insufficient to overcome the strong presumption in favor of public access.” GeeVee, this great news. Delighted!

This post really touched me, Hope4More. It is abundantly clear that this case has gripped you. Many others have been (and still are) fascinated by what happened. Despite reaching maximum Arias saturation point a while ago your husband listened and made an assessment. As much as you appreciate...

PocketAccent "A few weeks ago when I was focusing on the pre-murder pedo letter, I re-watched interrogation videos to look for any signs of it during the interrogation." I'd recommend anyone new to this case to watch these videos. They are fascinating, particularly the exchanges with Detective...

I agree that Arias would most likely have entertained thoughts of killing Lisa then. I would add that her rage against Travis would have made him a prime target for her death wishes that early. Lisa's trial testimony riveted Arias. She was fully attentive throughout every word. Due to what...

PocketAccent, you have put up a very strong case for your arguments. More to think on above. One point, would Arias not have had boxes of evidence and notes in her cell? Could some of these have included copies of TA's handwriting in various forms? The part I have bolded - very interesting...

This had crossed my mind too. I use large envelopes to ensure documents arrive uncreased.

I have no doubt that she thought she had planned the perfect murder. The interview tapes with Flores show breathtaking smugness and confidence. Stupidity too. She played her 'I was never in Arizona' card way too soon. Yet we know that Ryan Burns had been telling her that people were pointing to...

Good catch re the handwritten book notes. My take is that they had enough interaction to play out fantasies - like the pigtailed schoolgirl ones before. It would have been easy for her to tell him how much it turned her on in phone sex when he talked age.That she liked to feel younger. I feel it...

"When did Travis give her his HANDWRITTEN book chapter notes to type up?" Hope4More If I recall correctly, she asked Travis to give her credit for her work in that letter she sent a few weeks into May. So, it must have been fairly near that date (maybe within weeks/months?) in order for it to...

The discussion on the forgeries is interesting with strong points being made by PocketAccent, Hope4More and others. My view is that Arias thought she had planned the perfect murder. As forcefully as she insisted her innocence, she knew that others were pointing the finger firmly at her before...

:clap:: Niner. Hope4More and I have disagreed on some key areas. Nonetheless, my admiration for her ability to type huge responses on a smart phone is considerable. I struggle on a MacBook Pro. The site also makes demands to type and edit quite quickly. Doubly impressive!

Yes, it is possible that Travis may have had to restrain the lunatic from self-harming. Yet if there had been bruises she would have catalogued them. When she cut her finger it was photographed. Arias destroyed her hard drive as she didn't want the police to find incriminating evidence. I bet...

I agree with the posters above. There were no procedural errors made in the trial. Arias had a defence that worked hard. She herself stated that.

The 'Bob White' saga was important. Arias insisted that Nurmi did not search properly for the mysterious man that witnessed the bruises all over her body. Immediately after her conviction in the interview with Fox 10 - it's one of the first things she focuses on. Her hatred of Nurmi can't be...

Impressive typing from a mobile phone (cell phone to Americans :):) ). Yes, I too would point to Jodi for the monstrous paedophilia strategy. That Nurmi specialised in defending sexual predators must have delighted her initially. Someone she could glean information from and manipulate is...

Arias never expected to be caught. She is that arrogant and stupid. The interview with the female police officer was fascinating, partly as Arias was so dismissive and unwilling to engage with a woman. Arias had banked on lying her way out of it by focusing on lack of motive. How many times did...

Arias began formulating the 'Attack Travis' strategy very early on. Even when she was telling the media what a great guy he was the lies were bubbling underneath. You can see it clearly in this video from 2008: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaJmaW6YxuE From 17:51 in above. Interviewer...

"* I don't remember anything about her getting in shape, but if she said she was, IMO it's a safe bet that was a lie, and another example of her post-Mesa copy-catting whatever Travis was doing (blogs, his getting in shape for Cancun, etc)." Where is Tex Mex? I miss his contributions and sharp...

I deleted Juan's book from my iPad but will try to find it in the book section. The reason I thought she may have parked further away was sparked by her running and being in training before the murder. Just to be more fit or ensure she could cover a modest distance quickly? Looking like an...

I've given the theories set out some thought. Intriguing as they are in places there is a risk of complicating what might have been more simple. Using Travis' plates added risk. Matt McCartney's plates would provide a direct association to Arias and implicate one of her few allies. My instinct...
