If I may............................It all depends upon what you do for a living. In my work, I am highly scheduled and meeting heavy. Due to the nature of my job, I either lead the meeting(s) or my attendance is critical. I would certainly be able to participate on a jury if I knew what days...
Oh, and Ventana has employee housing onsite. It's way rustic, but it is employee housing during the season. Darryl probably didn't live in it because he was management (at least in the begining) but she sure did. And tips would be very good there.
I live in the area and frequent Ventana's for brunch quite often. It's a nice place that attracts many out of the area visitors and high end local trade (from Pebble Beach and/or Carmel proper).......I'm just going to blurt it out even though it may not sound quite...
I tend to agree. If you look at her past experience with men, it seems that she usually "traded up." At least in her own world. The trade up activities increased as she got older and more experienced. She must have thought she hit the jackpot when she reeled in Darryl Brewer originally. But...
I have two random thoughts...Actually one thought and one question.
My thought: I am listening to the TV talking about Charles Manson marrying some strange young woman. It struck me that case would probably not led to convictions if tried today in what appears to be a rapidly increasing...
She can refuse to testify, that is her right. But I don't believe she can refuse to be cross examined on things she has ALREADY testified to even if in secret (remember it was not secret to the jury.) I think it might work like this.... Let's say that JA testified in her star chamber and only...
But that only applies if you are physically in the state in which the trial is being conducted. I think (and may be totally wrong)that the exception to that is for federal (as opposed to state) trials.
I feel ya. I have watched this unholy fiasco from the beginning and constantly sickened by her and her little circus team. In order not to go completely crazy, I tend to cling to one thing. Her "win" at the point.....her victory that is all important to her and the black hole of a diseased...
I think she changed her hair color in Salinas. I live in Salinas and know that there are quite a number of salons that take walk-in's that take cash, are high volume and speak English as the second language. I mention the language thing because I doubt Spanish or Korean only speaking folks...
I think they probably did have sex. Her texts and emails indicate that she slept in his bed quite a lot when she was living in the same town as Travis. I have no doubt that Travis did not know she was coming on that fateful date. If I recall correctly, she says she showed up in the wee hours...
Which is totally ridiculous. Geez, Jodi Arian pretty much lived in a car. Taking road trips I and logging hundreds and hundreds of miles all the time. Why the need to borrow or buy gas cans if she never drove through the desert without extra gas? If that were true, wouldn't she already have...
Thank you very much for answering my question. I haven't said it before, but I really appreciate your legal mind and the way in which you respond so even a lay person understands. So thanks again.
Why wouldn't that be admissible? Seems it goes right to state of mind...current state of mind..... But there is probably some wonky rule that does not allow it and that is totally wrong.
I don't fully understand. If the "secret witness" was able to testify shielded and the appeal is denied....does it mean that the witness is cross examined in open court or "in secret" per the original deal. And if it was JA, can she refuse to take the stand (in open court) because she was...
But does THIS jury really know this? The last jury understood her previous relationship(s), at least somewhat. But THIS jury doesn't know all that things the FIRST one did. There is no way that Juan will be able to spend the kind of time needed to review all of this stuff. Which is why I...
I totally agree, but here is my concern. The defense is presenting selected emails from several people and trying to use that as evidence that Travis had a history of controlling others, treating women badly and a host of other bad traits. Then they toss an expert on the stand who analyses (in...
Coming out of the shadows to say....
I think it is essential that JM really, really walks the jury through the timeline of the relationship. An outsider peeking into defense testimony would come away with the impression that JA & TA had a ten year live-in relationship where he controlled her...
