Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias - Day 27

[cricket49]

I'm pretty sure that they know what they said in they're police interview, and they know that Juan will call them on it. I think JA has made Sandy feel very guilty about that interview, and that's why she's willing to do anything to help Jodi. Even begging/panhandling for money and reading JA's written "script" for the youtube video. Knowing Jodi, she is blaming everything about this trial on her mother. All because of her mom's HONEST words in that police interview.

Her mom and dad were both very honest during the police interview with Flores. They know Juan WOULD use their words against them and it will make Jodi look even worse.

One thing that comes back to me was Sandy's words about how Jodi acted after she found out Travis had been murdered. "How could she have done that and acted so normal? Who does that?" As Sandy is crying. An honest and human reaction.

Ok...who is Bianca?

The woman that MM cheated on JA with. The one she drove over an hour to confront when she found out about his cheating.

Curious in Indiana,

If you're lurking out there somewhere, I hope you come back. Was a long day for everyone yesterday and I feel horrible about how things ended up here. It's a new day today, we gotta remember we are all here for the same reason, even if we disagree on the way.

So if we only have CMJA word on it, how do we know that she and TA actually had anal sex or any of the proclivities she testified to? I am now wondering if she sought to paint a picture of sodomy to perpetuate her pedophile story. Anyone else?

There was the "work the booty" reference on the sex call.

But every time she tried that same "he spun me around" testiphony I busted a gut.

The DT has raised the evil specter of "Dr. DeMarte" to mythical heights. Imagine the jurors' surprise.

Another question for AZL. Geff managed to slip in that MM saw her bruised and told her to get a restraining order. I'm assuming he's basing that on what JA told him, not on affadavit testimony. You've said that JM can cast doubt on affadavit testimony by asking the jury to consider why those folks didn't testify in court.

What options does he have to challenge JA's assertions about MM if she doesn't repeat this lie in testimony or allocution?

For stuff like that I think he'd have to use Flores, because the jury knows Flores has pored through everything.
"Sir, you conducted dozens of interview for this investigation, right?"
"And you reviewed every piece of documentation, correct?"
"Sir, did you find ANY evidence anywhere or in any interview to back any of the defendant's claims of (fill in the blank), other than from the defendant herself?"
"Any police reports, statements recalled by friends, family, co-workers, counselors, anyone?"

Travis did talk about wanting to tie her to a tree and have that sort of sex with her. I don't remember whether he mentioned it anywhere else. I think Arias is exaggerating about several aspects of their sexual fling. That's all it was--a fling. It wasn't an earth-shattering sexual relationship. It sure wasn't love. It was just a little fling.

Even on the tree thing, Juan did get her to agree on the stand that it was a "fantasy," like role acting.

@TrialDiariesJ: A juror reported someone from public came up to them and asked what time the trial started #jodiarias #3tvarias

@TrialDiariesJ: The juror said they can't talk and walked off. Nurmi wants to talk to juror in chambers #jodiarias #3tvarias

Oh mistrial definitely nurmi

Judge SS says a Juror reported a someone from public approached them and asked what time the trial started. #jodiarias

 

[atthelake]

lol, Beth just said that Nurmi stated in court it WAS Abe they are trying to preclude, and filed motion as such as they haven't been able to interview him.

 

[Truth Detector]

The girl MM was dating/cheating on Jodi with that she drove to confront (left work in a huff, drove 90 or so miles to confront)

Drive time equals two hours and a huff. [With apologies to the Marx Brothers.]

Nurmi wants to follow-up with this juror. #jodiarias

 

[Hope4More]

No point in asking this, but how is that JSS' "other matters" always run late, but this trial never goes past the designated end time?

 

[NashBridges2]

Nurmi on big rant about Abe and other witnesses Juan will be calling.

 

[LambChop]

Where are our "Tweeties" today? Oh, there they are. LOL
