jodi arias TAKES THE STAND FOR 13TH DAY #63 *may contain graphic and adult content*

[LambChop]

:great: Juan did a wonderful job, but I am disappointed that he did not mention that her story of being chased by TA, getting the gun, shooting, stabbing, slicing throat, etc., all had to happen within less than 2 minutes. I also wonder why he did not mention that since her blood was found at the scene, what did she cut.

After defense has put on all their witnesses, it's time for Juan to do a rebuttal. Everything that was left handing, salon, license plate, gun, etc. will be covered by witness testimony on rebuttal. So all those questions someone might think (TH) he left hanging, he has testimony coming to prove she was lying. jmo

I think they might be the twins from The Shining.

Omg....now there's an image.....scary!

Premeditation = filling up gas cans so you don't have to fill up in AZ when you are getting the heck out of dodge...no paper trail in AZ if gas was purchased in CA. I have a feeling she mapped it out to see how far she could go with a tank and another 12gal in cans. Also, premeditation when she stabbed each time, when she slit his throat and when shot him in the head...MOO

Premeditation = running into the closet and deciding to jump up and get gun and staying in the bathroom and pointing gun at him instead of just running down the hallway to get away.

Either story it's premeditation

For the first time in over a week, I can exhale. Thank you Juan Martinez.
Please God, let there be justice in this trial.

 

[Anbud]

I hate to be so shallow, but to see her in that jacket along with those horrible khaki pants was really telling and just a glimpse as to how humiliated she must of felt during the reenactment.

Good, JM hammered home and exposed her to the murderer she is.

Again, Peace to Travis's family and friends.

true.but then i saw TA begging her to help him when she shot him. then i saw how those knifes kept stabbing him. saw his hands trying to protect himself from being stabbed saw her cockyness of moving on with her life. TA did not matter to her no more. she slaughtered him and went on with her life till she was caught. her evil being was not done til she slit his throat as a thank you for being kind to me. but no way you gonna be with another woman. she is evil to the core. her memory is better then most.

And there were bleach spots all over them, so I guess she tried to wash the blood out of them.

I don't think there were bleach spots on the socks IMO

Can You imagine Kelly Siegler crossing Jodi LOL that would be something she is such a Bull Dog and Aggressive. It would be interesting to observe Jodi be crossed by a female prosecutor.

I thought several times it might be better to have a female prosecutor.....until I saw Juan in action.....but Kelly would have been fantastic..it would have been interesting to see how poor little meek JA reacted to a female.

Ok I mentioned that Night Court episode about the slow talker that reminded me of Nurmi.. heres the quotes from the episode, doesnt have same effect as a clip




HARRY STONE
Mister Tuttle, do you have anything to say?






MR. TUTTLE
[long pauses between every word]... Yes.






HARRY STONE
[not presently aware Tuttle is a very slow talker] Well then go ahead.






MR. TUTTLE
...Well... it's... a... long... story.






HARRY STONE
[dreadfully aware, now, that Tuttle is a slow talker] Why am I seeing my life flashing before my eyes?






CHRISTINE SULLIVAN
[feels the judge's pain] Well, he does have a legal right to speak, Your Honor.






HARRY STONE
Okay Mister Tuttle, let 'er rip!






MR. TUTTLE
...Thank... you... I'll... be... brief.








HARRY STONE
Mr. Tuttle, I got one question for you. Do you or do you not want to press charges?






MR. TUTTLE
...No.






HARRY STONE
[yells] Why the hell didn't you just say that to begin with?






MR. TUTTLE
...Well...






HARRY STONE
[fed up] Case dismissed!

The thing is, barring her psychopathic obsession with TA, she was a gorgeous young female who could have enjoyed all sorts of free sex with all sorts of willing and able men of all ages. Her downfall was due to her insecurity and attaching herself to a man whose religious morality conflicted with hers. TA should've been just a one-night stand, then she should have just moved on to others. If she stuck with that plan, she could've been married with kids by now.

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with your assessment especially the 'insecure' part. An insecure person does not have the big brass balls to walk into a court of law and try to feed hundreds of people the tripe she's been serving.

 

[Curious Me]

I do NOT see him having her act it out as a blunder. She had ZERO emotion doing it. No tears thinking back of the moment when she shot him in the face.

Very matter of fact, like this...

I wasn't buying her emotion today. I don't even think she was crying for herself. It's an act, turns off and on so easy. Plus she covers her face!

Bad acting, IMO. They showed on JVM a point where Jodi looks through her hand and she's smiling. Oh, do I agree with you, she didn't convey any fear or real love for Travis. She really did premeditate killing him, IMO. Totally cold, not human Jodi.

I think 640 wide will still blow the margins..........it does for me. That is why during the KC case I figured out the best size was no wider than 500 wide for screencaps. It took a few more seconds to upload a great shot, but sure made reading easier and more enjoyable!

I thought Nurmi does redirect, JM does a rebuttal (recross?) if he wants to, juror questions for this witness (JA) and she steps down.

KN calls his expert witnesses, JM does cross with them, jury questions for each, then KN closes his CIC.

Then closing arguments - DT first JM last.

Finally deliberations for the guilt phase.

INAL - I think this is basically how it goes, but I'm not absolutely sure...

You forgot the states rebuttal case

 

[getReal]

After the disaster in Florida, I have no confidence that a jury will convict Jodi. CA killed a toddler.....Travis was a grown man.

Casey Anthony's case was circumstantial. Same with OJ. This one has direct evidence and an admission of the killing. Different deal.

 

[Nali87]

Maybe someone can help me.. In Dutch law, you're allowed to "overkill" in self defense. Basically when you're defending yourself but you go too far because of your emotional state, you can still claim self defense. I'm assuming that is not so with american law?

 

[Anita Richman]

im shocked gloria allred isnt defending her...

Have you known her to represent other perps who claim to be victims?

I don't think JM gets another go at her. This part is the defense's case, so they get the last word with JA. I could be wrong, but every case I have ever seen is done this way. Maybe one of the lawyers can answer this for us... lease:

 

[CrymeARiver]

Watching a replay of her talking about the size of TA's closet and how it's bigger than the cell she is living in. The look on her face is chilling as she's looking at the jurors. It's almost as if she's pissed at TA and it's his fault that his closet is bigger than her living space.

 

[ctmom]

If I were JM, when Jodi answered "It's bigger than the cell I live in" I would have made a motion to strike.. Or at least ask for a sidebar...
I think she was made aware by DT that if something like that came up it would predjudice the jury and could be a reason for mistrial..
