Yeah. I have been convinced for some time now that Nurmi has been dragging this out on purpose for a Win-Win. It helps give him a financial gain AND it keeps JA from going to prison.
JA thinks in her mind that she is still not convicted. To some extent she is right. Until this is finally over, I worry that she is somehow going to get out of it. This so needs to end.
One huge mistake JA and the DT is making by bringing up all these haphazard motions and alleged prosecurial misconduct distractions is those could have been good items to save during real appeals of the original verdict. I am sure she will use them again in her real appeals but I have to think that they are ruining some of their chances because Nurmi is not an appeals attorney. If JA would have saved all these things, she would have had a better chance later to use them.
With the way she has brought up everything already, an appeals court will be able to see how a lot of things were already struck down and already decided during trial.
Not to say she ever has a real chance at any appeals anyway. My goodness she murdered an innocent man in cold blood.
I honestly think if JA would have just went with a defense of claiming she lost her head in a fit of jealous rage and she is terribly sorry, throw out a bunch of fake tears, and throw herself at the mercy of the court, then she would have gotten a sentence that perhaps 1 day in the far far future she may have even gotten parole.
But her methods and way she has handled her defense has thrown what little chance she had out the window. It is a terrible defense to blast your victim and try to lie that you somehow had justification when everyone on earth already knows you viciously stabbed him and why you did it.
