Don't know how to carry posts over but in response to discussion about CMja killing in past and repeating in future, just want to emphasize how the torture component really sets her apart, I think, and makes this so much more likely. Okay, the run of the mill sociopath kills to get rid of obstacle that stands in his/her way----e.g., Scotty Peterson, FCA. But Travis wasn't in CMja's way. She just enjoyed inflicting pain and torture onto him and now enjoys the pain his family suffers.
This is why she is not the run of the mill reprehensible killer....
This is something I posted on the media interview thread relating to this:
OMG. The Ryan Owens interview had by far been the best...only one who challenged her and called her out.
The part that got me the most was when he said "so you think ppl will be safe with Jodi Arias out of these 4 walls"...and she said, "yes, if you don't abuse me or attack me or threaten to kill me, then you're safe." WTF, who talks like that????? OMG I wish the jury could have seen that. Basically, what she's saying is that if I perceive that someone is abusing me or attacking me, I am capable of doing the same thing again. WTF???? Omigosh, I just can't wrap my head around that. She IS a danger to society if let out.
And as we know, she perceives unreal things as being real. So let's say if she ever gets out, let's say she's with someone like her mom. Her mom says some innocent thing, but Jodi gets it in her head that her mom is verbally "attacking" her...well then by her own admission her mom, or whoever, better be scared for her life. B/c Jodi just might go and "defend" her self again. I'm sure Juan and Flores and the Mesa PD nearly jumped out of their skins when they heard that.
