Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias #2

[Nali87]

@WildAboutTrial: Counsel is feverishly taking notes as many jurors explain why they can't be impartial. "I'm just sick and tired of it" says 1. #jodiarias

 

[Nali87]

@WildAboutTrial: The hands just keep going up for impartialness. Auction style again. #jodiarias

 

[Nali87]

@ericksonvision: More #jodiarias jurors say publicity tainted their opinion. One guy, "I'm sick & tired of hearing about it." Join the club pal #3TVArias

 

[Nali87]

@Henri_Del_Rey: Almost every potential juror raised their hand when asked by Judge if they had heard or seen anything about #jodiarias

 

[Nali87]

@monicalindstrom: Quick reflection and thought on panel #1 selection result https://t.co/zjBjoy1trs

 

[Nali87]

@WildAboutTrial: 27ish potential jurors are excused for not being able to be impartial. #jodiarias

 

[Nali87]

@ericksonvision: Sitting in court for #jodiarias jury selection. Another 26 excused. This makes 80 so far today. #3TVArias

(Out of 200)

 

[Nali87]

@maryellenabc15: #TravisAlexander sister Tanisha and husband are in court for #JodiArias jury selection #abc15 http://t.co/Z23xzCFkh2

(Mary Ellen posted that picture. I don't know if it's from today or not.)

@monicalindstrom: roughly 26 potentials excused because they could not be fair #JodiArias, at least those r the ones ADMITTING they could not be

Good point

 

[Nali87]

@ericksonvision: Potential #jodiarias juror says she can't avoid media during trial saying "I receive the paper every day." They still make papers? #3TVArias

@WildAboutTrial: Judge is saying court could go through Dec 21st now. Jurors explaining why they ain't gots no time fo dis. #jodiarias

 

[LinasK]

Thanks to everyone posting tweets. Yes, I knowi can follow on Twitter without an account but it's much easier to read them all here, with all the medias different perspectives all in one spot.

Sounds like many were excused. I hope they have enough to fill a jury coming? They might need to send out a few thousand more jury subpoenas. I'm surprised so many people want excused, I'd love to be on that jury.

Agreed! I don't do Twitter, so thanks to everyone here for posting updates.:seeya:

And if you receive the paper everyday then, dammit, you have to read it! It's unavoidable, I mean it's there everyday on your porch, what can you do?

 

[Nali87]

@ericksonvision: #jodiarias potential juror asks judge "What if I want to watch the weather?" Really? "Here's your 5-day and an Arias update." #3TVArias

(Lol)

 

[bobloblaw]

I'm not sure I would want a juror on this case that has NOT heard or seen anything about Arias. How far out of touch with reality would they have to be? Caveman? Monk? Inmate?

 

[Nali87]

And if you receive the paper everyday then, dammit, you have to read it! It's unavoidable, I mean it's there everyday on your porch, what can you do?

Lol! The excuses right? I would just stand up and say "Your honor, let's hang her right now!", that would surely get me off..

@ericksonvision: #jodiarias potential juror asks judge "What if I want to watch the weather?" Really? "Here's your 5-day and an Arias update." #3TVArias

(Lol)

Do none of these people google or a have a device on which hey can download a weather app?

Besides, it's AZ. Chances are the forecast for that day is gonna be HOT AS HELL.

I heard that was the issue with the Anthony jury. To find a person that has never heard of that case was to find someone who's pretty out of the loop.

 

[Nali87]

@Henri_Del_Rey: several jurors saying they would be
hard-pressed to limit their media exposure for the length of the #jodiarias trial.
