Since Arias is going to be litigating issues, as her attorney tells it, I think she will raise questions about his and Willmott's failure to locate evidence of her bruises. She was sure there were telling photos on a misplaced hard drive and then she was sure Matt M. would provide a statement...

I've been surprised by the doubt & disbelief directed at the identity of the witness we were not allowed to observe even in the most indirect of ways. Troy Hayden & Jeff Gold are not dodgy sources from my experience of them. Plus, the fact that this is Arias fits everything we know about her...

What's happened to Gerard?

Yes, Josie, he has pulled this out of the bag before, many times. Ruling went against him every time. At the beginning of October, he and Willmott filed again on this but they added many more allegations, against both the prosecutor and law enforcement. Now, joining an action, timely &...

Can't stop chewing on what little information is available to us. I suspect the defense "case" is grandiose. Nurmi characterizes it as Arias litigating her issues rather than Arias mitigating her moral culpability. There is that, plus the amount of time she has all along planned to be in...

Judge Stephens had warned Arias that she would not be permitted to represent herself in pro per again, when she gave up that right after five weeks. Yet on October 20, HLN Morning Express reported Arias "appeared, to provide an oral motion to act as her own attorney." That conforms to what we...

That October 20 motion re: change of counsel has fascinated me, partly because it was so close to trial. Someone who was emotionally collected would not do that, so I sense we were mid-tantrum #98.

Yes, Spycraft, we absolutely know that Kirk Nurmi is aware of his client as a liar. ​He was the one who finally convinced her to stop the masked intruder lying because no one would ever believe that and neither did he. It took many visits.

It was a motion Arias herself tried to present after she had relinquished self-representation. The judge told her that was out of order and referred it to an unnamed judge. I have never seen the content of the (probably hand written) motion.

Well, Miss Arias with all of your rights to litigate issues, has it entered your consciousness that someone else might have rights too? How about J. Q. Public? When you seek to abridge the freedom of the press, guaranteed in Amendment I to the US Constitution, who else might be an interested...

This could be the emergent public petition we were celebrating Monday.

We know that CNN & HLN are broker than busted. This trial was a great boost for HLN's ratings but on the ground coverage was expensive. However, the speed with which they got out of Dodge told me they were under scrutiny & criticism from the defendant for undue and sensational influence that...

Renee110, De Marte said that twisting facility came from practice & that manipulative liars like Arias closely study what the other person (or parent) is saying. They concentrate on the words and eventually become very facile with words. Arias is very strong in that test category--and...

When Arias pitches a fury fit, she expects to be accommodated. More's the pity, she has been. Instead she should face severe discipline.

Another reason, for consideration. Arias is terrified of the death penalty. It is evident in everything she has said or done since the verdict, as well as how she appears when the subject come up. She can't even contemplate the nick from a razor.

And I'm not making this stuff up. It is The Nurmi himself who berated her for her tantrums. He ought to know as he is the object of her wrath. In those instances, i.e. We know her wrath is limitless.

Definitely, cherchez notre femme. Remember the ROOTS of this whole secrecy fury & demand. Arias! It dates to August and her shock & horror when she learned her top secret witness list would have to be produced and delivered to Juan Martinez. Her special private secret turnstile at the jail...

What brought a smile to my face this morning~the "emergent public petition for access"!

It was worthwhile to re-read the defendant's letter to Judge Stephens. Unpleasant, but worthwhile. She relates Nurmi's condemnation of her tantrum and describes herself thus: "I could not speak or be reasoned with or form rational thoughts beyond the horrors of exposing Travis & myself." I...

Please pardon the interruption in this train of inquiry. Think of it as a coffee break. Back when Jury I was given its first speaking introduction to the defendant, Nurmi asked her if she had killed Mr. Alexander & immediately asked her why. She replied, "The simple answer is that he attacked...
