Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias - Day 14

[bsk]

I guess KN is going to file a mistrial motion because Mike's transcripts take Dr F's comments out of context when he reports them verbatim.

 

[bsk]

Gee, Juan should have objected to KN's re-re-direct: "She didn't answer a single question on re-cross, so there is nothing for Mr N to re-re-direct on."

Didn't BJ eventually flee the mainland for an island in the Pacific Ocean? He must have thought that would be safer than hanging out at Crater Lake.

Yes, he ended up here in Oahu.

I think the jurors may feel exactly how we feel about JSS. Perhaps it may work in the prosecutors favor.
And, they will unanimously decide to take the decision away from the judge who seems to be doing nothing to
keep the court in line.

A DP verdict seems likely if JSS keeps it up, imo

Why does a court reporter put in ear buds?

Would you want to hear Lawrence Kirk Nurmi say, "Three-Hole Wonder" about 2 zillion times?

Nn

My prediction..........Judge Stephens will exclude any juror questions that Nurmi doesn't like, and include any questions that Nurmi does like. Juan will have no say so in the matter......as usual.

We will probably go from about 20 questions down to 3 or 4 after they come back from lunch and have another immediate sizzle-bar.

This is part of the reason I am terrified of Judge Stephens getting the opportunity to sentence Jodi.

Life with the possibility of Parole ? You can count on it.

This is my biggest fear.

 

[bsk]

Prediction for the afternoon:

Dr. MF will claim she can't answer the jury questions because she can't be sure it was asked by a juror.

I wonder if KN is separating the questions into "here are the ones she won't answer" (nearly all of them) vs "I'll rehearse an answer for these two over lunch so they're okay" piles

They in some ways are as interesting to study as the sociopaths they champion...as well as the people who marry them while in prison. All damaged. I honestly don't think it's all $ that motivates them entirely. Something else going on there too....I have to say as trite as it may seem, in this trial it does appear to me that a reverse misogyny going on with these expert$. Is there a term for that? It's almost like they enjoy tripping this around making Jodi the victim while sparring with Juan...all $exist in my opinion.

I posted this way back, but glad to resurrect it!

MISANDRIST

A misogynist is a man who hates women. A woman who hates men can be described as a misandrist, and the corresponding noun is misandry. But however prevalent the attitudes described by these words may be, the words themselves aren't common. There are currently only 23 examples of misandrist in the Oxford English Corpus, while misogynist appears more than 1,200 times; 37 uses of misandry are overshadowed by 1,592 examples of misogyny.

Bsk, I really do hope she refuses to answer some of the juror questions because nothing will alienate her with jurors faster than being dismissive of their concerns and tim.e and being even FURTHER disrespected and invalidated then they already have been in this trial.

 

[bsk]

Juror questions I'd like to hear:
"Do you know what a 'court transcript' is?"
"Are you always this credible when you testify?"
"You cannot legally make a diagnosis in AZ, right? Follow-up: Why did you diagnose Travis/T-Dogg/Mr Hyde with dissociative identity disorder?" (I wish Juan had nailed her on this.)

I was thinking the same thing. They won't like that she didn't answer Juan's questions but they will HATE it if she doesn't answer theirs. And if they have one that doesn't make the cut they will hate her via KN for that too.

Anyone else miss the good ol' days when the 1st Amendment and Arizona law were lip-serviced in JSKS' courtroom?

Can someone refresh my memory please? How do juror questions work - the question is asked and she answers, but what after that? Can either side ask for clarification of her answer, object to her answer, or "guide" her in any way?

Oh how I miss that seal! At least it meant we would be privy to the courtroom antics 'after the break'.

 

[Ricki]

I must say. She is stubborn old coot. Time for her to retire. She so I unprofessional and it surely shows. Can't miss all her disrespectful and and she calls herself a DR. I think a smart jury is going to figure what she is all about.

She is supposed to answers all the questions (the usual objections can be made) and then the lawyers get to follow up.

While the sentence would not be justly rendered strictly out of spite for JSKS, it would be just nonetheless.

A question I would like to see from the jury - - - -

Was Jodi helpful in relieving Travis of his inner emotional conflict? If yes, how?
If not, was she the cause?


I know it will not be asked - but with the Dr. going on about TA's inner conflict, maybe she's suggesting JA did him a favor?

jmo - and all that jazz.
