Jodi Arias TAKES THE STAND #36 *may contain graphic and adult content*

[katiecoolady]

It's a "motorhome", as he corrected Juan. lol He makes $100,000 and doesn't have to get out of bed so I guess it makes sense he'd be driving around in a vehicle with a bed in it. :floorlaugh: Bet it's a king-sized one, too. jmo

With infrequently washed sheets.

Imo

Well, if you look at it in a way, she does. Somewhat like killing the goose that laid the golden eggs. jmo

 

[WhatsupAZ]

IMHO, Nurmi will wrap it up today at the very last moment. He wants the jury to go home with Jodi's version of the killing in their minds. It's typical procedure for both sides of a trial.

In the prosecution CIC, Juan Martinez ended as many days as possible with some very strong videos of JA lying and posturing. Once, they had the weekend to think about it.

Also, with all the ramblings back and forth in time, I'm sure the jury is quite confused about what happened when and are fatigued mentally from the effort to put it all together in their minds.

I get that, but seriously! How long can he stall without losing all interest? For example... "jodi, flip through that pile and find something more for us to talk about") He should have clipped alobg early in the week to get cross ovrr with and end the week with his first proffessional opinion/expert witness.

Remember last year when Tammy Smith was on the stand in her own defense and the judge told them to "wrap it up"? Guess its not gonna happen in a murder one case, but we can only wish.

One of the talking heads mentioned this and I thought it would be a great strategy for cross.

JM: Why did you stab TA the 1st time?
JA: ______
JM: Why did you stab TA the 2nd time?
JA: ______
JM: Why did you stab TA the 3rd time?
JA: ______
JM: Why did you stab TA the 4th time?
JM: Why did you stab TA the 5th time?

on & on until she had to explain every single stab wound she inflicted on him- the throat slitting, the gunshot.. I think it would be very effective!

Ask.... How did it make you feeeeel?

If I'm a juror, I am going to discount everything she testified to because ,...as instructed by the judge...I find her testimony incredible. Why should I even try to wade through it?

Exactly. Everything that's not corroborated by a credible source..out..

:yesss: I have ALWAYS thought the stab wounds happened then... always.

I concur.

My own opinion is that he was too strong to have been taken 'aware', even by a very determined murderess.

He had to be attacked from behind -- quickly, viciously, and mercilessly. The back wounds which are close together were likely inflicted in very rapid succession, because when the victim eventually moved, the inflicted wounds would be more distant from each other.

After the initial stabbing he did move, to escape, but he was already shocked from the surprise, experiencing pain from the multiple stab wounds he was trying to ward off as she continued to rapidly lunge at him with the long knife, slicing his hands, arm, legs, head and torso while he was slipping around in a wet shower stall, trying to escape.

She then shot him in the head, but he wouldn't die quickly enough. So she stabbed him fatally (superior vena cava, near the cardiac base), sliced through his carotid artery, jugular vein and airway. He bled out very rapidly, finally ceasing to breathe and move. These wounds are documented photographically and in the autopsy report.

Try as she might, Jodi cannot explain these away -- hair color notwithstanding.

I agree with you. The only remorse she has is she was caught.

Surfing via cellphone which makes it difficult to scroll around.

Can you please refresh my memory on the date of the recording?

So the privacy blast text was May 26 and the gun theft was 2 days later on May 28. Now I'm trying to place the date of the recording

The sex tape recording? That was May 10

Ugh!! I wouldn't step inside his motor home for all the 'director rings' in China. He makes my hair stand on end.

When gus gave ja the hellio phone ,,where was ja travling to?

I guess where i'm going is was ja going home to yreka when she stopped and gus gave her the phone and i belive it was because she lost hers?

 

[AZlawyer]

Back in the early days of the trial... I think when it was a hearing outside of the jury, possibly prosecutorial misconduct (imagine that lol), Juan himself said something about it, that he didn't want to go there, re: stalking/tire slashing, because it could be a basis for an appeal because she is not/has not been charged with stalking. I think this was his reason for not calling Lisa himself. That is why the defense called her. Maybe one of our lawyers could address this for us

I don't think it would have been an appeal issue even without the "door opening" testimony; it's relevant to her motive (jilted ex). In an abundance of caution, I could see why he wouldn't want to get into it--but I wish he hadn't explained the reason out loud, because now if he does follow up on her "opening the door," Nurmi will cry mistrial again.

 

[Ammonitida]

He is a despicable attention seeking slimeball who lures women to his small creepy trailer.

In my opinion.

Yeah, a nasty wannabe "sugar daddy". I don't believe a single word that comes from his mouth. Never trust a guy who pleads the 5th at trial.

 

[Carol2]

This business of the mitigation specialist's facial expressions - smirking, grinning etc, in full view of the jury, is really starting to frustrate me. I feel JM may already be aware of it because it's likely his team back at base are watching online and may even be reading here too.

And we know that "His Team" includes Sky Hughes. :great:

 

[CUCKOOHEAD]

Who says she even went into the bathroom to take her butt pics. inocchio:

even ewwwwwwer :floorlaugh:

 

[DEPUTYDAWG]

Re DT's "reason" for why she had a gun -

Was it Uncle Gus (ugh) or her new friend, Brian...last night, one of them had a reason as to why Jodie would have gone to Mesa with a guy. (I think now it was Brian who said this) - that because TA had been physically abusive to her in the past, and he was calling her to come see him for a meeting in person to talk to him...poor Jodie didn't know what it was about and what to expect. Soooo, this is why she was going to be taking a gun with her.

(**Disclaimer: I was under the influence of a pain pill while watching Nancy Grace and DrD...and that's the only reason I was even watching them! Otherwise I can't bear to watch them, when I'm somewhat sane!)

Take it for what it's worth, LOL

He's smarmy and slimy. I changed the channel when I saw he would be on Dr. Drew. I refuse to feed that man's ego.

Gus said she lost it.

also re: yesterday morning hearing with Sky H..... does anyone else think that Nurmi put her on subpoena so she couldn't watch the trial/help Juan?

I don't think he would be THAT stooopid that he would call her as a defense witness???

Yes, in your words, "Bingo!"
