Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias - 12/05-08 In recess

[Steve44]

I'm still clueless why both would have missed the *advertiser censored*, virus related or not. What could that good reason be?

Because no one is claiming *advertiser censored* was missed, then found. The DT is claiming links to *advertiser censored* sites were missed then found. These are text files, URL's, showing the computer was once directed to *advertiser censored* sites, and in this case no one is disputing at least partially through the action of viruses. Maybe intentionally too, but imo that's impossible to prove. Anything a person could possibly do with a computer using a mouse or keyboard can also be done by a virus, except write 'War and Peace' or other creative work. Linking a computer to *advertiser censored* sites is not only possible for a virus, it's what many of them were written to do, and making it appear as if they were typed in is trivial. The original experts were asked if there was *advertiser censored* on the computer and they said no. They were right, and there still isn't. What was 'missed' but actually never asked, was "has this computer ever been to *advertiser censored* sites?" This is what the current defense has found.

Regarding the original claim that there were no viruses either, I would point out the difference between active viruses and quarantined ones.

I'm not claiming nothing was missed by the original experts but I will point out that this detailed an analysis of Travis' hard drive was never central to the prosecutions case.At this stage, however, the defense seeks to miss no opportunity to smear Travis and/or implicate the prosecution in wrongdoing. Even if they fail they still succeed via delay.

Exactly Steve. And remember how after JA brought up something new; "I returned the gas cans" or "I stepped on the wobbly closet", JM actually investigated those claims (without delay I might add). If the DT was so concerned with the *advertiser censored* (or *advertiser censored* websites), why didn't they ask their experts to review the harddrive again while the original trial was still going on? Nothing was stopping them!

In my opinion, they had their expert look at the harddrive. And he didn't testify to anything useful on direct. It's their fault the *advertiser censored* didn't come in. They were the ones argueing that Travis was some pervert but didn't bother thoroughly looking for *advertiser censored*. It was their responsibility to find and present the *advertiser censored*, just like they found and presented the sextape. You can't fault the prosecution for not finding something you didn't bother to look for either!

And it's at this point more than ever that JSS needs to actually do her job. This trial has jumped track. We're down to one day a week as a matter of course because of all the side issues the defense has clogged it up with, and JSS doesn't even keep it focused on them enough to actually solve them. We're set to burn through a large part of 2015 at this pace and if that happens it will be because of JSS and no one else. How long does she expect the jury to put up with this bull****? She looks at them so affectionately and appreciatively when they come in but to me it just makes her look two-faced. She's being played for a fool, but damnit she wears it well.

If the point the DT is trying to make is that Travis "deserved" to die due to pedophilia or *advertiser censored* addiction, that is still despicable. Noone deserves to die in the manner that he did. CMJA was convicted of M1 in a cruel, depraved murder. I don't get it, what does this all have to do with mitigation? Can't these issues be dealt with on appeals? They want the conviction overturned in the middle of the penalty phase? IMO this is the judge's fault in not setting priorities and letting this trial run amok. I understand JSS wants to give the murderess every chance to save her life, but why couldn't she have said, guys (DT) you had 18 months between the guilt and sentencing phase to deal with outstanding issues, let's finish the retrial now for the sake of the jurors and Travis's family, and you can raise this after? Why, because then the murderess and her team would have to pay for these motions to be heard, IMO, and again CMJA & KN/JW is sticking it to the State. $2.7 million dollars so far. JUDGE GET A GRIP! Self defense is out the window, obviously. This trial & judge is now out of control. And why can't she order that KN's motions be heard on a Friday or even Saturday, and rule that the testimony be heard Monday thru Thursday both for continuity of testimony for the jurors and the Alexander family? The victim has no rights here, just the killer and the actual retrial stands still for frivolous motions. Doesn't the judge have an inkling that the jury members, like #3, may have schedule commitments in January & February that may affect their ability to serve, and by allowing these breaks in testimony, the possibility of mistrial exists, or does she even care? I am not being facetious either, maybe that's what JSS wants.
Pardon my rant, but a man was murdered, stabbed 27 times, throat slit & shot in the head. What does all this BS have to do with obtaining justice for him? His character dragged through the mud every single day. Who cares if he even liked to watch *advertiser censored*, which I highly doubt, he does not deserve character assassination. I personally think CMJA put the *advertiser censored* on his computer if there indeed was any, either remotely or it was put there by pure accident, downloaded unknowingly through a video or email. This has happened to me years back, when all of a sudden you get a xrated pop up and you click the "close" button so quickly because you can't believe what you just saw and want it off your computer.
IMO Travis didn't download any *advertiser censored*. I think he was too good of a person to do that, whether he be Mormon or Catholic or any religion. He continues to get framed, berated and shamed even in death because of his psycho, evil, monster of a killer and the crap her defense team is allowed to get away with by this Judge. I just don't have faith in Judge Stephens anymore. I respect judges in general & was not wanting to discount the difficult job they have, but this judge has lost control of this trial. She has clerks and support staff to help her, she is not working alone. It's not an overly physical job, I do not think she is overworked, it's just that I get a sense time and efficiency mean nothing to her.

Sorry for the double post, my tablet went wonky.

 

[Hope4More]

Thanks for that Hope, I've let my subscription lapse & don't want to renew it until we have more than 1 trial day per week. Can you tell us what Sid has to say in the comments section under the daily blog for the hearing. He is a computer guru.

Hi Margaret..I just looked. It appears that Sid has been banned and that ALL his posts have been deleted.

 

[Hope4More]

About number of scrubbers etc. A commenter on BK offered the thought that its possible TA repeatedly downloaded the same scrubber (s) because he didn't know the first download had been successful.

I've done that on multiple occasions with different programs so know that's possible!

 

[rose222]

One would think that a defendant convicted of nearly decapitating a man would be on her hands and knees begging for forgiveness and mercy. Juan said that the new approach to pedophilia (as far as Arias is concerned) is to jump in the sack. Well, the new approach to premeditated murder is to fabricate all kinds of ludicrous stories about the victim which basically amounts to the defendant saying 'I should be rewarded for killing him.' How tragic it is to accept the death of Travis Alexander and the death of personal responsibility in the courtroom. Our last hope is that this jury will force personal responsibility down the defendant's throat by fixing the punishment at death.

 

[Dmacky]

That Steve Carrol thing was all horse hockey. Jodi was trying to make Travis jealous.

Hard to remember guys, but THINK 13-y-o mentality.

Read the whole page. Jodi is trying to explain why Travis was sending those emails toward the end of May. You can also go up to the top right and go through more of the trial days.

BN's ego is out of control when testifying from the witness stand, I find it troubling when an expert with over 20 years experience should degrade a fellow expert in such an unprofessional manner. He actually said that Melendez was either incompetent or lying when he testified to not finding any *advertiser censored* or viruses on TA's pc. He then went on to claim that a person with less than 5 days training would have had not missed what Melendez failed to find. When BN was asked if that was also the case for Dworkin he said he may have been given a scan clone–not a complete one. as he failed to find *advertiser censored* or viruses also he said no because it was more than likely that Dworkin was given an improper image by Melendez. Dworkin may have been given a scan clone–not a complete one. Of course it has to be Melendez's fault because he can't criticise Dworkin as he's the DT's expert. I have just gone over BK's notes from the first hearing to refresh my memory & this is what BN claims.
1 - Updates of Windows and iTunes were downloaded on June 10, 2008–not installed. The updates were installed on June 19, 2009.
2 - There were so many *advertiser censored* sites accessed–not from a virus–cloned x 3.
3 - Long list of urls which were accessed by the user on June 1, 2008. Some of the key words — great body, great sex, hxxd job. These files were in the history, not caused by a virus
4 - 9/5/07 - Adult film database, escorts sites were accessed as well. "Legal Escort for You" was one of the sites. Not a site on pc from a virus the user accessed it.
5 - 70,000 files were scrubbed or which was done by a program which was not on the pc. One way to do it would be to use a USB stick but can't make that determination. JW then tries to get him to say that they are in addition to the damage caused by Mesa PD but he can't confirm.
6 - Lots of viruses & *advertiser censored* sites specifically accessed by the user. The computer did not go to those sites because of a virus. BN now points to the first batch of *advertiser censored* sites that were typed in–not from a virus.
7 - About 90 pages of hundreds of sites, from the virus & from the user accessing. Z-lob virus comes from a *advertiser censored* site where a special player is downloaded for the user to watch the video.
8 - Sites that were accessed. Under “girls”, vile stuff, says BN. Found *advertiser censored* sites related to teens. Usually the word “sxxt” was used. “Sex” had 68,000 hits. Most of these sites in the registry, not just in the cloud, they were on the computer. Of the 90 pages of stuff he pulled down, these were in the registry. - (Did cloud storage exist in 2008?)
9 - BN has a history of these sites being accessed, not just 6/1/08.

If all the above is true, I believe their is a very simple explanation why Melendex & Dworkin missed this data. I'll explain in another post.

 

[04009margaret]

Autopsy 311 is freeware, open source used by BN
FTK used by Tony Klump
Encase used by Melendez & Dworkin – Encase is a court recognised program, hence why law enforcement use this program.
BN claims 166,000 *advertiser censored* sites missed, not hits, but actual sites.
BN went to Mesa PD & did 2 clones himself
BN’s clone was done in the past year, didn’t look at the clone drive from June 11, 2008 because he didn’t need to.
Tony Klump is the person who used FTK. When he made the first clone, the FTK program grabbed the wrong image. (This is the Dell image given to JM)
Here is my theory for the discrepancy between clones. Mesa PD & Dworkin clone was done in 2008. BN’s clone x 3 was done in the past year. As with all software it is continually improved & updated over time. Each update introduces new features & fixes any glitches & instability that the previous version had.
BN’s program although freeware was a newly released current version which would have more features than a program that was 5 years old.
BN is comparing work that was done 5 years ago on an old program, so of course there is going to be a difference in the finished report. No doubt Mesa PD now use the current version of Encase as all law enforcement do. If they were to do a new clone on the current version of Encase the generated report will no doubt be different to the now 5 year old clone. Until this allegation surfaced there would have been no reason for Mesa PD to investigate this further. Here is a review of Encase 2008 & a link to the current version of Encase if anyone is interested in comparing the two versions.

http://whereismydata.wordpress.com/2008/08/31/encase-forensic-6-review/

“The first versions of EnCase Forensic 6.x, simply did not do what it said on the tin. Attempting to use the indexing feature was utterly futile, cases crashed, time was wasted and and anyone who paid for the upgrade to EnCase 6.0 no doubt felt cheated, again”.

I did not know that Dworkin said this on the stand. IIRC, Melendez said that he did not find any pornographic images.

So perhaps neither expert was asked to look for internet *advertiser censored*. Hmmm....

I believe they were asked if any "pornographic images".

YesandNo was the first to post this on the sidebar.
Has anyone realized TA's pc *advertiser censored* & viruses & State misconduct & tampering wouldn't have been discovered had #JodiArias not been pro per?

For two years of incarceration, there wasn't a whisper about pedophilia nor domestic violence. When Nurmi assumed his representation, he began visiting Arias & he dunned her with the hard fact that her tale of intruders was not in the least credible. She finally caved and well, she had to replace that lie with something! Why not another one? I think she studied what people, and jurors particularly, find execrable. What revolts a decent person. Finds beneath contempt. She had access to material on this subject.

So I think the victim's pedophilia was late in formation. However, during the days in Utah following the murder, Arias confided in Leslie Udy that she envisioned the day when her children and Travis' children would be playing together. Travis' body had not been discovered. This hopeful statement directly contradicts others she has made from the witness stand where she explained her fear for the children of Travis' friends and the trouble she went to, to keep him away from them. Little did she realize that Leslie Udy would remember that vision Arias shared and testify to it in the murder trial. We also remember the threat Arias made from her cell. Bargain with me for a term less than life or I will, regrettably of course, smear Travis Alexander with everything I've got.

Great post Tuba ~
She has learned quite a bit in jail. And after thinking about different scenarios for 5 years she creates the worst of worst LIE. Story number three, he was a pedophile. She knows that in prison or on the outside, people feel this abhorrence toward this particular, pathetic type of being. She is pure evil. Good catch about her children one day playing with TA's children! I had totally forgotten about that little contradiction.
Of course all mothers dream of pedophiles having access to their children.

ETA ~
Another thing that really repulses me. She has completely destroyed Travis' family, as well as her own for the last almost 7 years. Yet HER life is probably the best it's ever been! JA was/is a nobody. She couldn't keep a job and had absolutely no friends.
And now TA DA she think's she is famous. She actually has supporters who think she was wrongly convicted, people sending her money ?? Crazies buying her art (putting it up next to their van Gogh's) :giggle: And that darn paparazzi !! Yes, she will drag this trial out as long as she can. Keep the FANS sending her money. She's in no hurry to EVER go to Perryville.

 

[atthelake]

We don't know what they are but most likely, the vast majority will be malware programs, masquerading as antiviruses or alerts from resident antivirus programs (You've been infected! Click this box to clean the virus!) sort of things that download crap programs and infect a computer further. Sort of like that recent fake Java update box folks here (and all over) were dealing with a few months ago.

No, that's just an update from the java already installed on your pc. It supports some programs that are running on your computer. If it's a bother, you can uninstall it. Open Start menu, go to installed programs and choose Java from the uninstall list. Or you can update it.

 

[04009margaret]

Without the transcript, do we actually know what really happened? It seems to me the tweeters have totally dropped the ball on continuity.

From BK's notes from the first hearing........."Judge orders BN to provide a copy of each clone."

 

[WhoaIsMe]

With advances in technology over the past 6 years, I wish more than anything they could access her broken HD and computer. I would love to know what she was up to for the months leading up to TA's death.

This whole thing reeks of practices of politicians, accuse the other side of what you are doing. When you are slimy, repeatedly say they are slimy. If you are stalling, accuse them of stalling. If you are possibly tampering with things, look to them and scream misconduct. It all feels like misdirection.
