jodi arias TAKES THE STAND FOR 14TH DAY #68*may contain graphic and adult content*

[Madeleine74]

Some people will buy anything!

Barnum & Bailey proved that eons ago. Yes, there are people who will choose to believe what Jodi is saying. It still doesn't explain or excuse 29 stab wounds and a shot to the head and isn't proof of self-defense (which she HAS to prove btw), but sure, they'll believe her stories simply because they want to.

Dr Lillian G called Travis disgusting on her FB page ... Are some people actually buying this carp????????

Jean Casarez called him a pervert.:furious:

 

[Gypsy Road]

She is actually very bright....

Jodi? How so?

 

[Paintr]

Did we suddenly get whisked away to Florida, mid trial? I sure do hope these jurors are smarter but I am begining to have grave doubts about the outcome.

 

[JusticeJunkie]

Did he say defense rests?

Only in our dreams beeshie.

I was a battered wife who left 29 years and still stalked by exhusband! There is no sign of abuse from Travis!

How do you know its a lie?

I agree this was a crime of passion...and I suppose it could have been self-defense. It is very difficult to prove and if Jodi had said that from day one, we wouldn't be here.

I am surprised that many of the women who have been hurt by men do not have more compassion for Arias. Not compassion for the murder but for more understanding about abuse and how it works.

I do not see the fear that I expected. That could be for any number of reasons. First, that she has not fear because she is lying...and that makes sense because she has lied a lot. Or...it could be because she is on medication. Or it could be because the threat is gone. I don't know...and I don't presume to have the answers.

I will step away now....carry on.

She is actually very bright....

No matter how bright she is, she still displays a great deal of immaturity in expressing her feelings towards TA. Maturity and intelligence are 2 different things. moo

Also...having sex with a guy, and hoping that he will keep you, and then being rejected is no excuse for murder-and certainly not abuse. moo

She is actually very bright....

I didn't mean intellectually, Shefner. I meant emotionally.

 

[Arishia]

:violin:

Sounds like a pity party....through not fault of my own

:floorlaugh:

 

[meanddblj]

Dr Lillian G called Travis disgusting on her FB page ... Are some people actually buying this carp????????

yes, I believe they are
I do not but I think they are buying this

[shefner]

Jodi? How so?

She has an astute vocabulary....but a flat affect.

 

[sweetcaro]

Are the DT notes and tips still one there?? How is this legal???

What does DT stand for? Can't figure it out!

 

[Jetaime]

I hope she touches her cold sore & they multiply all around her mouth & and start to crust & scab up by tomorrow!

 

[Pink Potion]

:great:Hahaha... I went and got a pedicure a few hours ago. The sweet guy that does them is from Vietnam. He doesnt speak much English so we usually dont say much to each other. The tv was on CNN a piece about this case came on and suddenly he says in perfect english...She Guilty!!! Made my day!:great:!

 

[LambChop]

Was this from listening to defense???

 

[beeshie]

Only in our dreams beeshie.

Aww, too bad. I could have sworn that's what I heard. Wishful thinking I guess!

 

[molly333]

She is actually very bright....

yeah, she almost got away with the perfect crime as far as I'm concerned. [nobody else agrees with me on that, tho]

 

[katydid23]

Is it really helpful for her to show the jury evidence of her moods and her darkness? I would think it just adds to the belief that she shot him out of anger more than self defense.

Arias reads "I just wish I could die... i am of little use to the world right now through no fault of my own." bla bla boa ...

"All of my darkness is a result of my own creation..." well DUH.

This is all NEW so Juan gets to recross her on this stuff.



This stuff sounds to me like a MOTIVE for murder.

Did he say defense rests?

he is just getting warmed up.
