Penalty Phase - Verdict Watch

[Mrs G Norris]

Did you catch Nurmi using that word??? I nearly choked. :floorlaugh:

YES!!!!! Contemporaneous .. who says that? .. Oh JODI. Every. Single. Time. She. Talks.

 

[21merc7]

You know speaking of DB and the interview he gave about her... What I found kind of interesting and maybe a bit telling was that they had talked of marriage before.. and even having a kid.. but he ALREADY had one and didn't want a new marriage and new kid to take anything away from his kid.
First of all... who thinks like that? What he can't get married and have another kid because he's divorced and his kid would feel left out? or neglected?
Second of all.. so CMJA has bet 4 years of her life on this guy and finally he tells her.. she's not marriage material.. after she gave up the prositute like sex with him for however long, (he claims once, but I don't believe him). So she goes all gung ho over PPL and Travis and she does all the same crap to win him over only for him to also tell her that he doesn't find her marriage material either.

That had to have hurt, but since she's not normal I don't think she dealt with it the way that she should or the way a normal person would have. This is all just my opinion and I don't know that I totally believe DB either, but I think that would really be very hurtful if I have bought a house with someone and they told me that marriage was off the table.

I agree it would be painful to hear no one wants to marry you. But not painful enough to brutally slaughter someone. To that I say grow up 27 year old girl. It happens to billions, more than once, before they ever get married.

And, I think DB was lying about having informed JA of that.

Her ability to conduct these interviews and behave the way she does only serves to confirm how delusional and dangerous and disconnected the murderer is.

I agree. I am so hoping that the prison staff is carefully watching the JA show, and taking notes. This is one prisoner that you don't allow an iota of leeway with. Nothing, nada, never.

This is why she needs the death penalty, she will never stop her attack on the alexanders, jury, and travis. She is totally remorseless. I hope the jury comes back with death.

 

[indycornstalk]

This is what CMJA is now promoting herself as...Travis Reincarnate. She is trying to model her new Prison Persona as the kind of person Travis WAS. Travis was an Environmentalist, Travis helped the poor and indigent; just like this thing think she is going to be doing by teaching those inmates that are "BENEATH her station" to read, write etc. It was TRAVIS that always lit up the room, it was TRAVIS that was the center of attention, he was the one that everyone loved and admired for his good deeds and kindness. CMJA is trying to be everything TRAVIS was...it's sickening to watch really.

BY the way...this Jury has already made up their minds..IMO they made up their minds when they found her GUILTY of 1st Degree Murder & the Cruelty Phase. The Jurors could have NEVER went that far with the Verdict had they NOT been prepared to give her Death. That is why she felt SO compelled to hurry up and give all those interviews because she KNOWS what's coming. She's trying to get her last 15 minutes in before the Jailhouse Doors are slammed shut on her to be forgotten to the ages. Good riddance. I have never in my life seen a human being that has absolutely NO redeeming human value. NONE. Then as far as her Legal Counsel...Let's just say I hope they NEVER work another day in their career for what they did in this case. The amount of disrespect shown to the courts, the Victims family, the Judge, the State; it's sickening, unethical and immoral.

 

[TotallyObsessed]

i noticed that too!

Fast forward ten years. I imagine her being dragged out into the light for her manacled weekly stroll in the prison yard. She squints through thick glasses.

She has a unibrow, a mustache, sallow skin with crowsfeet around the eyes. She has developed deep howdy doody lines going from nose to edges of her mouth, whatever bone structure she may have once had camouflaged by acne scarring from the terrible diet and her persistent habit of squeezing pimples until they become boils. Nevertheless, she bends over to whip her scraggly salt and pepper hair so that the greasy clumps have some volume as she walks by the slitholes behind which wild and rheumy eyes follow her and minds darkened by boredom shriek "jodi jodi jodi jodi." her new audience? No, her eyes never leave the 50-something burly prison matron who escorts her to the exercise yard.

"you have extraordinarily delicate feet for a powerful woman, you know. Has anyone ever told you that before? You know i'm an artist and i would be glad to do a signed portrait of your feet--i'm very good with hands and feet--all i need is a pencil and paper....and if you didn't want it you could sell it on ebay ----"

'shut your pie hole ms. Airy fairy. We ain't buyin' that b**sh** here."

count on it. Those guards are waiting for ms. I-demand-makeup.

omg this is hilarious

When that reporter asked Jodi why she wanted to speak with the press, she replied with, "Why do you want to speak to me?"

I WISH he had replied "Because you are a notorious convicted murderer."

TawniDilly has many of the interviews here:

Having seen a few minutes of the ABC interview which was interesting because it was good to see the CM's reaction to hard-ish hitting no scripted questions, I've decided I'm done.

check your inbox :innocent:

i was going to watch those interviews when i was in the shower but i fear i may drown myself :facepalm::floorlaugh:

 

[Only4Justice]

O/T: Can someone tell me how to find my own posts? I know there's a way, but I can't figure it out. Thanks

 

[queen9600]

If we can discuss this without all the innuendo I would appreciate it. I seem to get banned when I cross my eyes around here so I expect the same courtesy.

The point is this is not a random killer staulking fraternity houses looking for victims to kill. JA does not need to kill people for entertainment.
I believe it was a crime of passion coupled with the fact JA at that point of her life, could not except being vanquished. On top of that you add her mental version and you got trouble.

Look, I didn't impose any innuendo in this conversation. I asked you straight out to clarify the comment that you made. I get that she is not a Ted Bundy, but you act like she had some mental disease that led her to commit this crime, and that is not the complete picture either. While I do believe that Jodi suffers from some sort of BPD, I DO NOT believe that it is the only reason for her to have commited this heinous crime. She PLANNED it. She KNEW that Travis was going to die that day. In your version, she was a victim of circumstance, which would mean that you have to negate not some, but ALL of the premeditation that JM MORE than proved during his case to the jury. She wasn't so sick that she could fool ALL of those docs that interviewed her. Say what you will, But CMJA planned the murder of Travis and executed it, and whether her story held or not, she thought that she was smart enough and pretty enough to get out of it. The only mental question here is why, if she is so damn smart, was she soooo stupid in this crime. And the answer is her Ego.

 

[Mrs G Norris]

There's a lot more of these to come: This is from an interview with The Associated Press..

Arias said she wanted at least three people called as witnesses who could have testified to having seen bruises on her neck "when I was choked out" by Alexander but she said she was rebuffed by her lawyers. The prosecutor insisted her claims of self-defence were exaggerated in attempt to avoid being convicted.

She said her lawyers "felt a little betrayed" and blindsided by her post-conviction interview but that they gave their blessings for Tuesday night's interviews, warning her to be cautious.

Arias said she sometimes wishes she'd never met Alexander, "just because of how ultimately everything ended and I say that for his sake and mine -- not just a selfish thing."

She said if the attack never occurred and she never crossed paths with the victim, she would likely now be a happily married 32-year-old with children, good finances and a successful wedding photography business.

This unique individual really is not in touch with what is happening here. I watched fox and abc and that's enough for me for now. With fox she went on about here tee shirt and said something like, well if they don't like it, it's their opinion. She was fighting for her life, you don't do or say anything that is open to a negative opinion. I really think she thought she was up there to do a class project. I don't think she get's it. She didn't even remotely apologize on the stand, yet she thinks she said more than sorry????? Her little snarky, why are you talking to me, was so childish. UGH

ABC interview was the same ol' dunno answer that we heard so many times on the stand. She can't answer yes or no.

 

[Mare10]

If she gets LWOP, she will be eaten alive. Those women will never stand for this condescending junk. They will chew her up and spit her out. These women are not local mall shoplifters, these are criminals with criminal minds. There will be no book clubs unless she wants to eat a book, there will be no recycling programs, unless she wants to find herself in the recycle bin. I hope no one tells her.

 

[Wake_me]

I mentioned it yesterday, but threads were moving so fast...

Two days ago when Patti didn't show, Nurmi told the judge he wanted her to explain to the jury why the promised witness would not be there. She told him she would explain she was unavailable, but would not say why as it was speculation. She did just that yesterday.

During Jodi's speech yesterday when showing the picture of her and Patti she said specifically she wasn't there because of harassment her and her daughter faced.

I know Jodi wasn't under oath, but is there any consequence for this clearly disobedient act? I'm sure JSS wasn't happy about it.

-------

Also, unrelated, but if I paid for advertisement on HLN yesterday I would want 33% of what I paid refunded. Did anyone notice how even the commercials were cropped with the JA trial header/boarder?

 

[Smelly Squirrel]

I'm pretty sure he did ONCE. It was kinda weird because that was the day all of CMja's nasty bits pics were all over the jumbotron LOL He picked a heck of day to attend :blushing:

He was there on Monday..

Why do I have to be SO curious?? I just watched 3 interviews that CMJA gave tonight and now I can't sleep..Anger breeds insomnia!!

You're both thinking of Joseph, the younger brother. Carl is the older one, close to Jodi's age. I don't think I've seen him in court.

 

[rob]

Her ability to conduct these interviews and behave the way she does only serves to confirm how delusional and dangerous and disconnected the murderer is.

I'm glad she keeps doing the interviews, because then when she appeals, how can she use media as one of the reasons she didnt' get a fair trial. She did more media than anyone. Her attorneys didn't do the Jose Biaz media blitz.

Nothing will come of JA's Patti speech yesterday. No charges, no nothing.

JA thinks she is setting up grounds for ineffective assistance due to not calling witnesses, or witnesses too afraid to come to trial. It will not work. Not to mention Patti told the media she didn't come b/c she was conflicted in her feelings about JA and her crime, and Patti plead the 5th to Juan.

Jodi acts like this was all karma. It was supposed to happen so she could be a savior for the prison system.

I can't wait for her to check into the 'General Population Hilton'. Book clubs, recycling programs indeed! Yeah right. Right after morning spa/meditation sessions.

:floorlaugh:

Let's not forget a special mix of pilates and yoga designed by the one and only JA. I mean, hey, it helped relax mind and body during police interviews. After that she'll design yoga wear. Lululemon will have some serious competiton. :floorlaugh:

Or so we can ALL hope...

 

[The Farm]

Thought Sheriff Joe was a really tough sheriff? Have my doubts now that he keeps allowing a psychopathic murderer to do tv interviews. Is he all bluff?

I think his hands are tied on this one. I do not think there is anyway he would have let this happen.

I have not watched her interview nor do I want to. Ridiculous.
