Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias - Day 29

[CarolinaMoon]

Why do you need a lawyer? From a DEFENSE LAWYER? OMG! He's not only snarking and giving innuendo, he's questioning the Bishop's honesty. Don't think the jury is enjoying this, especially if any members are LDS.

Nurmi says discipline is mandatory when a parishoner is known to be a predator. Bishop Parker agrees. Nurmi asks about temple recommends.

I feel so bad for this poor Bishop. I've never seen such a vile Defense team and I sat through the entire Florida trial a few years ago.

I feel like I need a shower after watching these thugs stoop lower than rock bottom.

 

[Truth Detector]

No jury now, supposedly.

Thanks, JSKS, for blacking us out.

 

[wenwe4]

Let's see, now.

LKN is a lawyer.

So, Nurmi's clients only hire him if they want to avoid honesty?

(Just trying to follow his logic, you see.)

Brilliant post!

The judge needs to stop this travesty.

Nurm says " Your lawyer is right here and why would you need him unless you were committing a transgression?" #jodiarias #3tvarias

Nurmi is saying a transgression is Fraud, Perjury and False Swearings .......#jodiarias #3tvarias

cannot see the jury taking kindly at all to this

I don't even go to the YMCA without my attorney on speed dial. It's called RATHER BEING SAFE THAN SORRY. #jodiarias

I am so glad I'm not in the courtroom. I don't know how I would stop myself from throwing something at Nurmi right now. #jodiarias

Nurmi asks Bishop Parker if he should protect others from predators
Parker says "Yes" #jodiarias #3tvarias Defense isn't coming off well

 

[JSR]

Oh, for the love of God.

What the heck does he think he is doing? They are ALL heartless, remorseless fools- the whole lot of them.

Nurmi is just trying to do his job. Not that I'm at ALL defending the way he's going about it. His strategy this go around is not best suiting his clients goal of saving her life. If he keeps it up he's basically signing her death warrant unless there's a stealth juror on the panel.

This DT just loves sandwiching vile innuendo between unrelated innocuous questions....

Nurmi points back at Parker's lawyer and says "Why do you need a lawyer here if you are not going to create a serious offense." #JodiArias

That is really low.

 

[Wolfpack Fan]

If I were the bishop, I would tell Nurmi that I brought a lawyer because instead of being a trial about Jodi Arias slaughtering Travis Alexander, it seems to be a trial about Travis Alexander not getting the justice he deserves because he was a Mormon. These defense attorneys and their psychologists are trying to convince the jury that they should be more lenient with Jodi because Travis was a Mormon and he sinned. I'm Southern Baptist, and I sin. But Christ died for my sins. All I have to do is ask for His forgiveness.

Nurmi is over emphasizing every word he can use "Must keep those commandments" when talking about being in a temple #jodiarias #3tvarias

Um . . . Nurmi just slammed the entire PPL premise - apparently legal representation is only needed when you commit serious transgressions.

You mean like the reason you are representing Jodi Arias?
