Some things I think I think ...

IF we are to believe Jodi did things to "please Daryl" but "he didn't ask her to..."
then we also get to believe that Jodi did things to "please Travis" but "Travis didn't ask her to...", to include:

a) While still living with Darryl and just 2 months after meeting Travis, she becomes a Mormon
b) introduced KY to the relationship with Travis,
c) got “waxed” for Travis,
d) performed oral sex on Travis,
e) requested “facials” from Travis,
f) requested *advertiser censored** poundings and received anal sex from Travis,
g) snuck into Travis’ home uninvited on numerous occasions to surprise him
h) showed up uninvited to Travis’ Christmas party, refused to leave, and slept under a Xmas tree to please him
i) “secretly” recorded sex tapes with Travis to please him
h) moved to Mesa to be closer to Travis even though they had broken up to please him
i) peeped in his backyard window while he was with another girlfriend in order to please him
j) seduced Travis by texting him and telling him she wanted him to “fluck her like a dirty, horny little school girl” in order to please him
k) willingly chose to show up at Travis’ house after 10 p.m. many times, invited or not, to engage in wild, fantasy filled sex just to please him
l) Traveled from Yreka to Mesa on June 4th to confront Travis, have sex with him, make videos, take shower photos, to please him before he left to go on vacation with another female,
m) too many other things to list

Yes, we get to believe that Jodi did all of the above, and then some, "just to please Travis”…but “Travis never asked her to do any of these things -- Just like she did for Darryl! :fence:

o) She went looking for that perfect tree.

So much for her Mormon faith. We haven't heard much about it since she's been in jail. She's now exploring differences between Christianity and Buddhism...ya know, trying to see which one says it's okay to butcher another human being.

Travis didn't tell any of his ex-girlfriends that they were 'evil' and that they were the worst things to happen to him. So, the question the jurors must ask themselves is... what did Arias do to make Travis lash out at her in those last few weeks of his life? If I may...ask not what Travis did to Arias but what Arias did to Travis.

FWIW, on a previous thread that I can no longer edit, I mistakenly posted that Jodi was held back in first grade. She was held back in Kindergarten, not first grade, for the record.

1:39:16
KN: Were you and Carl together or did you go to different schools?
JA: Um…we were in school together. I was held back in kindergarten so, even though we’re two years apart he was only one grade behind me.

I wonder if that's when that "bottom" surgery her father had apparently referred to happened?

Darryl Brewer

This man appears to have rather distinctive hands. The lower knuckles and nails look suspiciously like the "penis hands" to me.

Anyone else think so?

 

[TxJan1971]

Val, do you remember when BA talked about the bottom surgery? I don't recall it from the interview with Det. Flores but it's been awhile since I reread that. Is that where?

 

[Hope4More]

I guess no transcript today, eh?

What "bottom" surgery? I've seen people mention it here, but I have no idea what's the story.

Is court back soon? It's 12:23 California time.

Just a quick scroll through as I wolf down my lunch at work--

Why would someone be held back in kindergarten? Maybe things have changed since I was in kindergarten way back in the Dark Ages, but it's not exactly a demanding curriculum.

That's what I just came looking for, transcript and to see if Juan is up yet.

It's been 24 hours judge. What are we waiting for? Obviously she's not too worried about what the COA said. Unreal.

DB admitted that jodi asked him for gas can because she was going to ARIZONA.

So the defense will say this proves beyond any shadow of a doubt that she was not trying to hide the trip to AZ.

It appears from twitter that a supeona was issued today? Anyone know how to look that up?

Rules and decorum are for other Courtrooms.

When is her birthday? Some places keep the younger five-year olds back a year.

Interesting........I wonder if anyone has counted the number of times Geffner has stated that Arias was NOT MANIPULATIVE, as told to him by every single person he talked to, read about, heard about, or dreamed! Certainly not coincidental Willmott's purposeful strategy to mitigate the word "manipulative" before Juan Martinez is up!

I bet at least one juror is thinking, in all I've seen and heard she is manipulative.

 

[Tuba]

What the Jury Knows.____Dr. Geffner was put to the task of confecting a sympathetic character out of the killer. They know you can make the case for any proposition [like tortured soul] if you work from questionable, unsound, or unchallenged predicates [testimonials of killer's personal contacts]. Such an expert can then make selective choices [with an artful flourish] and draw tendentious conclusions from them [Tortured Soul]. He has a huge gallery of psychological possibilities to draw on, some he will stamp with approval and have stapled. Some of the more inconvenient possibilities, not.

My cousin was held back in kindergarten as a child, FWIW, she is a total mental case.
