If we find out that the mystery witness is a Ninja with a skateboard, I'm hanging it up, never to follow another trial. :gaah:
Did you see my answer a page or two back? Basically there's just no argument that could be made for closing the court for JA.
Could it be:
the father testifying to abusing Jodi as a child? At this point, I'm sure he'll do anything to save his daughter's life
an old friend of Arias who claims to have seen the abuse/pedophilia?
Alyce LaViolette? Too 'scared' to testify in open court again?
A little late in reading, but had a couple of questions??
AZLawyer - will ALL stuff that the judge has sealed be released to the public AFTER the verdict?? TIA!! :wave:

Well, they would have to have asked JSS for a stay first, and I don't know if that happened BECAUSE OF ALL THE DAMN SECRECY.
Someone (parent) could have made the demand on behalf of a child.
He didn't seem to care anything about saving her life before....

It worked for Casey Anthony..Call me cynical but I do believe that the entire family is in on this line of defense. I think the parents are well aware of the strategies (kind of abuse etc.). This is all an act. I think Nurmi has been coached by Baez. Once this trial is over all the family members will come together and sing Kumbaya, abuse allegations be d$amned.
But as someone mentioned earlier, even a distraught father couldn't stop the public from watching a video of a murderer torturing his son both physically and sexually. And THAT was a boy under 10 years old.
AZL - you mentioned that it wasn't JA testifying in secrecy and gave reasons for that. You also stated it is not an expert - can you give more info?
Does anyone think that this witness will be there to support the Travis pedophile lie? Nurmi was really really focused on TA supposedly watching a video of a 12 year old. Would such testimony be allowed?

My answers would be no, no and no. Unless possibly it were someone testifying to viewing pedophilia behavior by Travis and revealing the name of the witness would necessarily lead to exposure of the likely identity of the alleged child victim.
Probably not until after at least the primary appeal. Unless the AZ Court of Appeals says something in response to the media's special action on this ruling that makes JSS reconsider her prior rulings.
I'll include the "sarcasm" tags next time.
For what it's worth, I'm thinking either the Aunt (who is really, really...not nice) or some Jodi-recruit ready to commit perjury with an outlandish story. I've always felt like Jodi's parents didn't believe her lies, and I felt for Mom and Dad. But that Aunt...just WOW.
Intermission Pause: What on Earth would we do on this board without AZLawyer?
Blessed and lucky.
Carry on.
