I choose to believe the fact that Daft Punk released a new album (entitled Random Access Memories, no less) this week is some sign from the universe that Travis is happy about the unfolding events, wherever he is.
She's been paid $10,000 to basically come up with "sorry, no mitigating factors for you." Seriously, has she actually done anything to help in this mitigation phase?
I also wonder if the DT didn't want him to testify because he was going to establish that JA was not in abusive relationships her entire life and she wasn't a victim. There whole mitigation seems to hinge on that perspective, hence her mother not testifying on her behalf either.
The only way I can understand DB's interpretation of JA is that she was putting on an act for him, almost like a daughter trying to please daddy, since we know her personality is so mutable, depending on the guy she's with. Her mother, in the interrogation tapes, clearly states that JA has...
I thought he also contradicted himself when he talked about how he had very little correspondence with her after they broke up. So he didn't think it was weird that someone he had so little to do with showed up to borrow gas cans from him? And how does he know how much she changed, if he had so...
I'm just so confused about why Darryl Brewer cannot testify on JA's behalf? I realize the defense is probably setting her up for appeals, but it seems strange to me that he was all set and ready to go and then the defense basically gave no reason for why he was not allowed to testify. It was...
I thought the case the defense was trying to build was that she was abused from childhood on and thus had a series of poor relationships and when Travis started to "abuse" her, it was a culmination of all the times she'd been abused and used in the past, combined with his threatening her life...
That split second when JA looks right in the camera during the question about mitigating factors is chilling. Her pathetic plea that she has no mitigating factors, so look at me that scared little girl who would be nice to others in prison is just even more manipulation. She's so transparent and...
I've seen plenty of muted rage from her during the trial as she sits at the desk furiously scribbling at testimony she doesn't want to hear, making slit throat gestures towards the prosecutor, staring daggers at anyone who dares to expose her for what she is.
She's had years to build up her...
I'm waiting for the moment during the mitigation phase when JA takes the time to tell the jury to their faces how she prayed for each of them and to God and understands that this was what was meant to happen, that God works in mysterious ways and he put them on the jury for a reason. They came...
I've already got the title picked out! "I Subpoenaed God And Now He's In Contempt Because Even He Doesn't Want To Defend You... For Realz."
(My single favorite Juan Moment was when he said "for realz.")
I so want Juan Martinez to write his own version of Helter Skelter about this case someday. Maybe when he retires (since I want him to continue to prosecute and get justice for victims).
Still watching Dateline... honestly, who asks for the death penalty when they insist that they killed someone in self defense? If that were truly the case, wouldn't you fight tooth and nail for the lowest possible sentence you could get, hoping that one day you would win and appeal and have your...
Thanks for the laugh! :) It reminds me of when I was a kid, since my mother was on welfare, when I would go to pick out my frames at the doctor there would be walls of frames and then all I'd get to choose from was one little tray of plastic frames.
So I like to think that Jodi only gets the...
I half wonder if they're actually the kind of glasses you can buy in the pharmacy off a rack, just for show. Does the DT bring her glasses every day along with the rest of her civilian clothes? I can't imagine the jail would let her keep all of them in her cell.
Also KCL, I know we don't know...
