Is Janet the woman in the long, black Halloween looking dress and the platinum blonde hair...she is in some of the jury selection tapes....the one where the jurors are being questioned, individually?

Yes, that's Janet (although I didn't see the Halloweenish dress). She is slender with long platinum hair and a very serious demeanor.
 
@jeffgoldesq: @wheelercynthia @juanstie IRS is federal. Lying/hiding funds to keep indigency status for a public defender would be state offense.

RE: Jodi's fund scheme.
 
Twitter is all abuzz about some big Jodi story coming out this week which we'll all be pleased about ..

Ok I do believe I have permission to post this here as this has a direct relationship to the discussion at hand. My opinions on Juror 17 given the new information coming out. And since I get tens of thousands of views on my blog when I post, including to players involved in the case who have contacted me, I will continue to use it as a venue to promote my opinions as they relate to justice for VICTIMS everywhere, especially in my own back yard.

Another great blog post! I must add that in one of the group questioning I watched, Sherry asked "does anyone know Jodi Arias", hands went up. When asked, it was clear that they 'knew' her from the first trial. Sherry then said, "does anyone know Miss Arias personally." No hands. So that cleared it up.
There have been so many posts, defending J17, debating the word 'know'. All of the other potential jurors were aware what 'know' meant. They were aware.

Standing OVATION Katie :takeabow:, that was one hell of a blog post.

It was an eloquently articulated, impassioned yet reasonably tempered, shining example of what victims rights should and must stand for. I appreciate the link, and thank you for giving voice to one of the most important, and constantly under assault, issues in the Criminal Justice system today--the rights of VICTIMS of violent crimes.

Shows her coming into the courtroom, through the "gate" and off to the defense side....she has on something flow-ish, long and black. Couldn't really see her face....
 
And some people wonder why it is hard to let this case go.

It seems every day we learn of something new that seems to indicate this entire trial from start to finish has been totally unfair to the Prosecution side of things.

Travis and Juan never had a chance.
-Not from Jodi
-Not from the 1st jury (one of them)
-Not from the 2nd sentencing-phase jury (one of them)
-Not from the defense hired specialists
-Not from the judge herself with her worrying about appeals so much it made her make poor decisions (for example - breaking the constitution, sidebars a-la-mode, etc)
-And now it seems maybe not even from one of the judicial assistants either.

Sure, some could be just rumors but where there is smoke there is fire. Way too much circumstantial evidence to declare everything just a rumor.

The bottom line is this entire trial has not been fair to Travis and the Prosecution. And that is a travesty of justice.

IMO, I will settle for a LWOP sentence but I sure am not happy about how things went down in this trial. From start to finish, it has been a disaster. Financially and otherwise.
All JMO of course.

Well, if the rumors are true about MDLR being investigated, maybe he thinks it is in his best interest to pipe down on anything JA related for the time being. :)

And maybe he's disappointed she didn't get the DP, since the DP seems to be one of his favorite hobby horses.

One of the many annoying aspects of dealing with him in the courtroom (let's not forget I was a friend of his for over a decade before this trial so had lots of contact w/ him) was his fixation on why she should have been pled down to 2nd degree. He even tried to talk ME out of MY OWN perception that she was more dangerous and evil than the men who killed my sister, like I was stupid or something. The other annoyance was how he mocked the "circus like" atmosphere (including me and my interest in the trial which he was quick to point out--my involvement in the "circus") while he was at the center of the drama as a ringleader enjoying every second of it. Blech.

So do I! It's an open forum for anyone to read, so I suppose nothing can be done - except not post.

Unless they have permission to copy I'm assuming the answer is no, they cannot.

In the video of the initial voir dire where JSS introduces all of the court staff, she indicates Janet (last name I don't remember) as her "Judicial Assistant".
 
Just re-listened to that bit again about Jennifer Pittman and the Judicial Assistant drama, and Nurmi says that Pittman was questioned in chambers and so was your "then and now assistant".

Curious that Nurmi and Juan have distant recollections but JSS doesn't seem to remember that she already had the specifics she just asked for e.g. JP's name or that she has already questioned both parties about it. So much so that she wants to get it on the record that the assistant "adamantly denies" it. I'm sure she has loads going on all the time so 'meh' but with that kind of drama between courtroom staff you'd think it would be squashed immediately then monitored for a bit for the sake of all the cases these two individuals have to work together on.

In her defense, Juan did not bring up that she already had JP's name either. Maybe he also forgot the details of that particular in-chambers meeting. I don't doubt it since there were so many they must all blur together. But then again, this wasn't his staff so it probably was not nearly as important to him as I'd think it would be to JSS.

Thank you! This trial really deserves exposure...so many underhanded and nefarious dealings, many of which I observed first hand!
 
Not sure anyone else has noticed but after watching several of the retrial videos I vehemently contend that JM was severely constrained/inhibited in his questioning and wording during direct and cross examination--am I the only one who is seeing this?

In the hearing video, JSS says there is reference to conduct by the judicial assistant on page 7 of the state's objection (can anybody find this doc?) Then later JSS introduces the judicial assistant by name in each of those jury selection videos. There's no speculation. This isn't even new news, it happened in the 2013 trial. Also, we read about it in the Mrs. Flores Twitter DM section of Nurmi's 59 page motion for dismissal of the death penalty that he filed on October 1.
 
When there is a sidebar, does anyone else notice how JW overtalks everyone, including Sherry? And, how clueless she is? How the heck can she train other lawyers?

I really gag when she turns on the whiny, little girl voice.....Sherry falls for it everytime. Just like she would get all trembly when Nurmi whispered "appeal"...
