I love the way Nurmi waits until 2:30pm Monday to file this damn thing. I really think the DT will stall and stall and stall. Anything to prolong this circus. Dear God, keep the jurors calm, cool and able to withstand any and all BS the Defense throws at them. Fight the good fight.
Softail see my post above. It depends. It entirely depends. We don't get much context from the Motion. But if she said something egregious and in front of most of the entire jury the Judge could toss the whole trial. But again it would have to be pretty bad.
I know this is a dumb question, and I'm sure it will get lost due to the new info about a mistrial, but I'm going to ask it anyway. Why do we believe that is Travis on the sex tape? It doesn't sound like the same person that we hear on the tapes where we see him. Travis didn't use drugs or alcohol, and it sounds like a man who is either drunk or on something powerful. I'm sure Juan wouldn't agree that it's Travis unless it was, but something is very strange about his speech on that sex tape. I'm sure this has been addressed before, but I'm late in getting here, and I may have missed it. Am I the only one that has a problem believing this is Travis?
maybe tricolor said that she wanted her pic taken with Juan......LOL
Were the attorneys in the room when the jurors were questioned? And if they weren't, I am wondering how anyone other than the judge knows what was said in that interview.
Also I thought they were being interviewed individually. I think it sounds weird and maybe there was some other misconduct somewhere. Thanks for the link. jmo

I just read the motion for mistrial. Although what the juror allegedly said/did is sealed, I'll warrant that it is just another "CYA motion." This is based on KN's history of filing unmerited motions for mistrial due to "prosecutorial misconduct."
And to add to my former post, I predict the judge will, at most, dismiss that particular juror.
If there is blood running down Travis Alexander's neck as he stands in the shower - where is he bleeding from?
If I were in the jury - and we decided to look at the shower pictures - one of the jurors said, "I think that is blood running down his neck." I would not be able to entertain any thought that TA attacked - blood running down his neck in the shower would make the murder of Travis Alexander even worst.
The blood would mean that Arias started torturing TA before he got in the shower / when he was in the shower. It would mean, for me, that TA torture was long and thought out. It would mean, for me that Arias enjoyed tormenting TA the entire time that he was in the shower - while at the same time TA was filled with fear - Arias was happy and excited knowing that TA's life was going to end - at the same time TA was petrified and frightened knowing that his life was going to end.

You would think the Judge would have addressed the issue when it happened. I think the defense is grabbing in the dark for anything they might be able to get for a mistrial. Maybe if they did get a mistrial, Nurmi could have himself removed from the case, since this is what he has wanted for a long time. Court should have released him long ago when he requested it.
That $250 hr is an attractive rate of pay !
