Bishop Parker moved to his house in 1978 in Riverside and still lives there today #jodiarias #3tvarias

Juan asks if Bishop Parker's attorney was appointed by the church and he responds YES #jodiarias #3tvarias

Going through Bishops history w/ church and duties and dates. Nurmi asks to approach. White noise.

Nurmi's ears pricked up at the word "dates". Visions of asking the bishop whether he'd ever had "dates" that should have cost him his temple recommend.

She asked about immigration papers? Are you kidding? JW trying to turn DR into an immigrant in the minds of the jurors? Sick.....

Yeah I noticed that too, I just LOL

That was a smart move. I am sure they are going to try and slime him, accuse him of having the *advertiser censored* possibly?

#jodiarias Note from Cathy - Mormon bishop's are volunteers, not paid clergy. They are "called" to serve in that position temporarily.

Good for Bishop Parker. Protection from the slimeball defense. Good on him.

No, no. When you enter Costa Rica you have to fill out immigration papers. She was there 18 months. I believe that is what JW was asking. The papers will show she entered once and left at the end of 18 months. jmo

In 1999 a young single adult program was apart of the family wards #jodiarias #3tvarias

 

[ziggy]

1999 young single adult program was not an entity by itself at that time it was part of a family ward which is geographical location. Bishop created young single adult ward in Mar. 1999. Activities such as sports, etc. going thru his Bishop duties.

... as all church members do- no one gets paid- they get a "calling". My best friend is a primary teacher at church, another is the young women's leader. I like the way they do it.

Bishop Parker explains #JodiArias jurors the make up of the Mormon church, bishops appointments, Wards, Stakes, punishment etc

 

[Hope4More]

How does it look to the jury that a BISHOP needs lawyer protection from the DT???

 

[oceanblueeyes]

and does she have to stay out of the court room too?

I am not sure since she is subject to be recalled. Cant think of one reason the DT would want Deanna back on the stand since she made JW look like a mean bully and a fool.

But she may have to leave. She sat with the Alexanders last time but then she wasn't subjected to be recalled.

IMO
