She admitted on the stand that one of the sexual text exchanges was because she was bored on a long road trip, they were goofing off, texting back and forth, trying to one up one another with how explicit they were being. I think that tells the story, in whole. She liked that kind of talk, introduced him to it, encouraged it, so when dealing with her he gave her what she wanted. No way in the world was she abused. I loved that ALV admitted that Jodi never once claimed to her that she felt sexually humiliated by Travis, but rather she was an active participant in the sex games, etc.I agree; the DT is kinda forced to but I've often wondered why JM even bothers to address anything she claims, except perhaps that he has been letting her set up lies under oath and using the evidence to refute them. I've been worried that taking any of them at face value - and repeating them even if only to refute them only validates them as a possibility. Like trying to enact that absurd closet scene that never could have happened. To me, the actual evidence, forensic and otherwise, paints the only relevant picture. But allowing her to set up yet another ridiculous lie in the presence of the jury may actually be an effective tactic because it's patently apparent that her story under oath is just more mendacious muck.
Perhaps the entire sextape conversation is in evidence and they just cut out the irrelevant parts - I'd imagine the pros vetted them for validity, time, etc. I'm one of those people who think whatever their sex life was or wasn't is incredibly irrelevant other than the fact the DT wants to use juror prurience to alienate them from the victim. Personally, I think Travis sounds bored and sleepy in them; she seems to be running the show. Certainly there is nothing on them that would hint TA is an abusive person in the least.
And frankly, even if he were - who in their right mind would believe that an "abused" woman would - months after breaking up with an abusive person - stealthily drive 1000+ miles (even more prepared for violence than the Astronut chick)to track him down like a dog and murder him in such a cruel, rage-filled way? Nothing - nothing about the scene they found remotely suggests self-defense, and nothing about her subsequent behavior would suggest it either. I'm just hoping that jury is as skeptical as the rest of us here are and take her lies in court as adding insult to injury to a victim that did not deserve either assassination of either body or reputation.
That one sentence, albeit unknowingly, undid all 18 days of Nurmi trying to get Jodi to relay that she was so humiliated by Travis, sexually. Her own words are her undoing. While she looked down, embarrassed about Travis wanting to ejaculate on her face while Nurmi was questioning her......we later see the text where she ASKS for a "well deserved spanking and a nice facial".
One cannot ask for it, encourage it, and then later claim to be humiliated by it. The jury did not just fall of the turnip truck. Her entire testimony was an act and I do not think the jury bought it for one second. :floorlaugh:
