a view from the inside: observations from our own court observers #9

There is a candle lighting in Phoenix today I am hearing. Since we are all spread far and wide I was thinking .....wouldn't it be a great idea for all of us Websleuthers all over the world to turn our porch lights on and leave them on until the verdict comes in? My porch light will be on tonight and everynight not only until a verdict is reached,but until sentancing is done...
Won't you join me please.... at least until we have a verdict? Thanks !

I'm in.

Great idea...if you can find them...either way I think it would be a great show of support and love..I know when our Kaitlin went missing it was so overwhelming to see the whole town with pink ribbons and flowers everywhere.

I'm so sorry about your body making you miserable MandyLeigh. Hubby and I also can't fast so you're not alone in your inability to fast. Our reasons are that we have type 1 diabetes (me 56 yrs Hubby nearing 15 yrs). I will be praying along with you while burning a new gel candle (Plumeria). Each time Hubby comes in from outside I remind him to remember to pray.

I'm glad I read your post because I had forgotten about making another donation. Thank you for the reminder.

Prayers (good thoughts) for Justice for Travis -
Prayers (Good thoughts) for strength and Peace for family and all who love Travis -
Healing Prayers for you -

((((seeya))))

I just had to make a post, I feel so far away.

I wanted to fast tomorrow but today my body said "HI, I'm going to make you miserable and I won't go away for a while". So, all I can do is pray and dig up money to donate and read this board feeling helpless becuase I can't something, anything more. :sigh:

I am so happy to hear Juan has someone and a beautiful prosecutor to boot. He deserves all the love one can give. I get teary eyed when I think of all that he deserves. It's weird. He isn't a football player or a rock star, he isn't getting paid millions upon millions a year but Juan is a fighter, he mine as well walk in wearing camo and medals. All of the justice he has brought to families, it can not be outweighed.

Does anyone have the info handy on the candle lighting in Phoenix today? I keep finding the Riverside, CA one.

Is anyone else planning to go? My mom and I really want to go, but I may have to bring my son.

5pm Bolin Plaza Downtown Phoenix

I won't be fasting, praying or changing my avatar, but I will be hoping and keeping the Alexander's, their friends and everyone here that wants her brought to justice in my thoughts.

Hi all! Just wanted to wish everyone a safe and meaningful fast, if you are able to participate.
Mine is already a few hours old and no troubles so far, thankfully. My mind is not on the hunger or thirst for food, it's hungry and thirsty for JUSTICE!
Getting closer!

A thought just occurred to me wondering if Alyce LaViolette is holding her own secret vigil today praying Jodi Arias is not acquitted.

I just started mine too...lemon water. I feel good (God knows I need the detox anyway).

Did you see I linked your media page? OMG I was in tears last night looking at all your graphics. I even phoned a friend (PASA) to go take a look, we were in hysterics on the phone together.

You are hilarious!!!

little story to share:
My bf of 9 years is originally from back east where his people all still live. He left to go back there on the 24th of april, and got stuck another day coming back cause the flights got cancelled (rain dontcha know!).
So, he finally returned this afternoon, me being out in my mud boots doing a proper clean up of the peacock pen, and asked him if he had fun fishing, visiting, the usual........

Holy cats!!!:shocked2:

Call me a bad influence! He went right into "we watched the trial!" *whatttt?*
ok, you have to know the players, both he and one of his brothers are viet nam vets (marine and airforce), they both have ptsd that was finally diagnosed by the va hospital in the last 15 years and got 100% disability after sucking it up for decades being dedicated employees in their jobs while trying to quietly suffer in silence. Medication and treatment were a god send for both of them. They're both in their 60's, 64 and 65, respectively, and tough as nails.

I got my bf interested in the trial because i was interested in this whole ptsd + fog business, because i also have ptsd. The curiosity was, wow! Ptsd and no memory?!?!?! How is this possible? And can i have some fog too?!?!?!

So bf has been watching religiously on hln (i do the streaming). Yes, the tv survived many close calls when ptsd was discussed by several choice people i will not name......you can almost guess what happened when the 2 brothers were together watching and pulling up david lohre's video's on youtube... But i digress....

Big bro (steve) had to know just who this "martinez" guy was and what was the big deal. I have trained my bf well! "well, he's the pit bull prosecutor there in arizona, he's done 100's of cases in his 30 years and only had 1 that was a reduced verdict. He is the man! You don't want to be on the wrong end of that guy if you're in court! He's one of arizona's "finest!"

so steve is watching, and "what gives? This guy is just beating up those witnesses!" don (my bf) "dude, just watch, wait til nurmi get's up, you'll get it!":rockon:

Needless to say, juan has another fan in illinois now, waiting for the verdict watch to start again on monday. Steve and don are soooo appreciative that juan got this ptsd back on the right track. For both of them, and myself, it was more than personal. The life of a young man was savagely taken away, and to use a mental illness, such as ptsd, is just beyond the pale.:stormingmad:

I would love, love, love to send a mug to steve and his wife, as well as get 2 for our place. As soon as you get it in place, count me in for 4, and another donation to the alexanders!

Ps. Big bro's flat screen was dislodged from the wall once......but it survived!!!
...they both wept during juan's closing argument, but you didn't hear that from me :blushing:

Katiecoo- What time is the radio show Arizona/California time?

I am fasting from food but drinking coffee and water. Can't live without coffee today- it's a long story.

Porch light will stay on and when I am able to leave today I will go get a blue light. I might just keep it that way too.

5PM AZ time! Exactly the time the daytime candlelight vigil starts...I have no idea who picked that time, it's the middle of the afternoon and will be HOT. I won't get there obviously until after the radio show, neither will Chris Hughes, neither will darkness or even sunset. (sorry if I sound bitter lol)

Can the time be changed? With social media, twitter and Facebook it would be possible? It would make so much more of an impact at dark- dusk, at least.

Lol I wondered about the time too. Do we know who set it up? My guess is they chose 5pm because the one in Riverside, CA is at 5pm.

lemon water and flavored sparkling water for the day -- porch light on for the duration -- universe must be getting these vibes!!

Does anyone have a link to the "eye" picture? I would love to see it!

Got a few calls last night and no one has any idea who has organized it. There is also one in Utah at 7 it could have been coordinated with. Oh well, I'll go...once I get done w/ Tricia's show and hopefully something will still be going on.
