The message referred to someone contradicting Arias' story. The one she had been telling for over a year- had been contradicted. I think they were for MM given how Juan Martinez introduced him on that video right after the magazine code reveal (other reasons too, of course).
Re answering Juan's...
Yes, there is definitely something in the pronunciation. Also, in the second trial - Dr Fonseca - played games with Juan Martinez re his name. I forgot to mention - if anyone gets a chance - scroll to the end of the video I posted above re the coded magazines. I defy anyone not to laugh out loud...
Her response is here, from around 15 minutes in:

Narcissistic on a monumental scale but clearly ready for the question, not phased. Frozen mask of smug indifference pushed shamelessly forward.
I agree. It's fascinating to watch a psychopath lie. Though no sane person would believe her, she smugly, calmly persists - smirking duper's delight signals throughout. It's repulsive.
The other point about this video relates to timing and I was basing my response around Hope4More's appeal...
Hope4More - She did indeed screw herself with those pedo forgeries. I find the timeline fascinating in relation to her interviews, such as the "No jury will ever convict me" and "You can mark my words on that one" fiasco.

Your thread on Appeals makes...
I agree that Arias was possibly preparing for this, even training. That comment about her running hard every day struck me as fitness preparation. GigiG - you sum up well the hubris and utter arrogance which makes Arias unusually annoying and infinitely lampoon worthy.
No. We know what Samantha said about JSS in court. Not as a paid 'expert' but as the sister of a man brutally slaughtered. Before the jury and the world's media a sincere appreciation and concern for Judge Sherry Stephens was graciously demonstrated. I have no need to question Samantha as I...
I respect Samantha and the family and it made me feel a little guilty to have lost patience with Judge Sherry Stephens several times when Travis' own family appreciated her efforts and strength. They lived every moment, saw Judge Stephens when we didn't, interacted with her in other ways.
A range of opinions can promote interesting debate. I agree that is all good. Yet my point was to do with fact, not opinion. It is a fact that Samantha thanked the judge. You bet that the family had nothing good to say about Judge Sherry Stephens. There is video evidence - a factual court record...
I based my reply on:
Hope4More: "I don't remember the Alexanders ever mentioning JSS. [...]"
You didn't qualify your statement as applying only outside the courtroom. What was said on a global stage with worldwide media attention was significant given how little they have said. I agree...

Juan Martinez:
"I don't believe there was any error that was committed - whether it was by the prosecution, the defence or the judge"
From 23 minutes in.
Positive comments also about the judge:
"It takes temperament to be a judge".
My impression...

This clip by a juror from the second trial shows
"I truly believe that if Jodi didn't get caught or if she was ever released - she would do it again".
Couldn't agree more.
I was just listening to Juan speak on the subject of the final rental car, the knives and the gun. He stresses the colour of the rental - white - was the same as the one she used to kill Travis. Hearing Juan's tone is interesting. It is speculation, of course, nothing provable but Juan stresses...
Hope4More: "I don't remember the Alexanders ever mentioning JSS. I'd be willing to bet they don't have much good to say about her, actually. Samantha has hinted at that more than once, even saying directly to JSS she thinks the system disproportionately favors defendants over victims."
This is...
For me, the Alexander family's opinion of Judge Sherry Stephens is very important. They seem to have a respect and regard for JSS's efforts. Juan Martinez does too. My hope is that the time spent on the trial will make successful appeals very difficult indeed.
We have to wait even more for that...

Which is why I selected the one point of Hope's I agreed with from the post.
The judge was not pro-defence. The rest is my opinion on JSS. The family appear to have appreciated JSS's efforts although I agree the delays were torturous and the whole thing drawn out by defence.
