Juan...dropping...the... bomb...!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[OhioBlues]

HLN is not cutting to commercials? I can tape it and I will watch Juan over and over again.

Justice For Travis Alexander

 

[elementary]

I love it. JA beginning to get agitated and pi$$ed.

 

[SusieD]

JA and JW playing tic tac toe

I think Hangman woudl be more appropriate

 

[MickyTwoShade]

i've always defended willmot as professional but she does seem personally invested in a weird way.

 

[ilovewings]

nailed on lying to the jury- jurors don't like to be lied to

 

[corundogs]

azfamily is the only live link I found that is actually ahead of HLN.

 

[KarmicLaw]

My only critique is that JM is referring to JA as "this woman", "this individual" instead of "this killer".

 

[AnArmyWife_98]

Someone alert the presses, HLN is actually a few seconds AHEAD of WaT...miracle of miracles!!!!

 

[katiedid2]

Great opening juan

 

[BritsKate]

Juan's hitting home that Jodi lied directly to the jury. That's always been huge to me...if I were a juror, and she lied to me, it just wouldn't matter a whit how many experts attempted to explain it away.

 

[Sweetiemom]

Enumerating her lies-one by one.

 

[here_now12]

I don't know how commong this is, seeing that this is the first trial I really follow, but Juan Martinez has my absolute admiration for not using any kind of notes during his closing argument.

I haven't seen either of the opening arguments, but what with all the clinging to the podium and the paperwork on the podium that the Defence has shown throughout this trial, speaking freely, determinedly, calmly and without having to refer to any kind of notes shows absolute competence, and I think the Jurors will notice that, consciously or unconsciously.

 

[nosytrish]

Jenny's dirty looks and eye rolling are really irking me

 

[Beccaboo]

I love it. JA beginning to get agitated and pi$$ed.

I have been expecting an outburst for weeks. Maybe today will be the day

 

[KMouse]

stop shaking your dang head JW. You disgust me.

Why the heck does Willmott appear to take this so personally?

 

[Melanie]

what's up with willmott shaking her head in indignation?

I've been angry in this trial, but not like I am right now with JW glaring and shaking her head like "I can't believe I can't jump up and down like a pop tart". She needs to go back to school.

MOO

Mel

 

[MandyLeigh]

Passionate man.
Not a bit of paper in his hands yet he is so powerful and clear. He remembers every little detail. He is the genius here. Certainly NOT Jodi as she thinks.

 

[SoBeCzar]

Just heard the jury instruction on rape. If Jodi woke up when her pants were being pulled off she was no longer asleep and could have objected.
