Spellbound, did you notice that in the virtual tour of a bedroom on their website...on the desk...ZEBRA PRINT desk accoutrement! I know this has nothing to do with the case itself, but it caught my attention. Just reminded me of Julia's love of zebra print.You can find several floor plans for the different options here

And take a virtual tour of the apartments here: http://tours.imagemaker360.com/Viewer/60-1.asp?ID=94484
(if the link does not work, it is available from the previous link)
Standard 3 BR, 3 Bath: (maybe Trojan knows which specific 3-BR layout Julia lived in and which was her room)
I can't tell if this is a front or back view of the apartment complex (Peninsular Place) ?

Extracting from Justnosey's post, here is a great compilation of all media posts on Julia:

Neither, this is the inside view.
The apartments are built around a courtyard. There are two such blocks.
For some reason, I wanted to revisit Julia's old social media. I went on IG. Look at what Julia posted a MONTH before she was murdered! This was right before her trip to NYC. I think this pretty clearly shows her relationship with JT IMO... What do you guys think? Is this a strained relationship? An abusive one? Someone who is scared? Looks like a "normal" father-daughter relationship to me. Let me know your thoughts....View attachment 74109
AND!!! Go back even further on IG. There are at least 10 photos that Julia posted of JT in his Karate tournament in Chicago when they went as a family to support him. Look at the comments and hashtags from Julia.

Doesn't this establish Julia's feelings for JT and their relationship within a month of her murder?That does appear to be a loving text, agree.

I know many of us probably looked through her IG for "clues" when this first happened. But I think this is more relevant now in light of JT being named a POI. These photos and comments from Julia are a stamp in time of her relationship with JT.http://www.enjoygram.com/julia_twin21989
From the pics Julia seems very comfortable and happy, and proud of her dad's karate accomplishments. The pics with karate dad are about 3 yrs. ago. I see no tension from her appearance, and I doubt I could hide it if I were uncomfortable with being this close to someone.

View attachment 74106Here are some great photos of the side and back of Peninsular Apartments. You can see the river and the old paper mill dam. http://www.annarbor.com/news/ypsila...paper-dam-area-could-receive-30k-in-upgrades/
If the allegations against JT are true, including abuses from the past, it points to a complex relationship. This would not be inconsistent with other cases where there has been child abuse. However, this is not my area of expertise, so I have to defer to the experts on this. It has been reported that JT and Julia had a strained relationship, and that she did not stay at the house because of him? We know there have been allegations of abuse.
This is a very complex case, and I'm not going to suggest I know all the family dynamics. I am, however, concerned that their *have* been allegations of him abusing Julia, and that he has now been arrested for child *advertiser censored*.
Lots to unravel in this very complex family situation.
First , Julia had a 3 bedroom/ 3 bathroom model apartment at the Peninsular Place Apartments. Which exact one, I'm not sure. Remember, she had two room mates. The website gives the floor plans for these. Julia's room was the farthest from the main entrance. I hope this helps.
AGREED! Here is a scenario I will run by you guys...and I in no way want to take the focus off JT as a POI but just playing devil's advocate here: Is it possible that JT was involved in a crime in the days leading up to Julia's murder, or someones personal vendetta against him (he owed money or stole money etc.), in which Julia was murdered in order to silence JT or as retribution for something he was involved in? Could this be the reason for HIS silence and not going on record with LE? Because he would be implicating himself in another crime? I mean...if you didn't do it, what other reason would you have for not going on record? Do we know the state of the family's financial affairs at the time of the murder? This may all be way out there...just trying to think outside the box.
First, Julia and Jennifer both worked at Electric Beach Tanning Salon, not a nail salon. The only connection between Julia and Chelsea is that their sisters are best friends. As far as I know, Julia did not socialize with Chelsea but did casually know her.
