trial day 39: the defense continues its case in chief #117

[gwenabob]

I may be wrong, but I think she bought two bottles of hair dye at wal-mart.

No, I believe it was Neutrogena spray on sun screen. And it was rather expensive. For a girl on a budget. And she bought 2.

 

[Hatfield]

She certainly likes getting things in sets of two. Kinda of weird.
She also was caught with 2 pens several times.

2 cheesburgers
2 sunscreens
2 face cleansers

Is it possible that Jodi could actually have a split personality?

We saw her on the interrogation tapes talking to herself outloud. Could it be possible she was talking to her other self? This whole "Two Thing" is really beyond bizarre.

From her testimony, she also had two cameras, an Olympus and a Canon. That explains why she didn't take TA's camera - only would have been 1 too many.

Did LE find the camera she said was in her storage unit?

 

[beeshie]

Ok... let's agree to disagree.

What mental diagnosis does Jodi not have? We have dissected Jodi as a microbiologist would dissect a cell.

Aichmophobia.

LOL, schizophrenia?

 

[deedee21]

IMO, Jodi's too narcissistic to allow herself to be portrayed as anything but absolutely perfect. Smarter than anyone else in the room.

I have a sister with a personality like her. You have to cut them out like cancer. Noone in the family talks to her.

"....naked...." or "stripped"...?
iirc...she actually said that! Thank you--I forgot about that. The tone of voice she used when she said it creeped me out too...

Dagnabbit...where the heck is that footage/verbiage....??!

I'll go looking for you.

The only thing that JA and Ted Bundy had in common was that they were converted (god knows why) into the Mormon church. JA was no Ted Bundy, no way, now how. Read The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule.

Actually they were both psychopaths/sociopaths/ That is the big thing they have in common. Crime-wise, not at all.

 

[Sleuth5]

And didn't her mom rent the last rental car for her? IMO she wasn't going camping, she was looking for her next victim. She tasted blood once and she liked it. I agree with the poster who felt that MM may have been next because he knew too much.

She was loaded for bear. Why would she need those weapons and another rental car unless, as you're saying, she had something on her mind?

It was JA's first day on direct to Nurmi, but the really weird thing was she used the IDENTICAL words, in the IDENTICAL order when Juan asks her about it.
definitely a script she thought up.

 

[Sulamith]

Yes. He was also a Methodist Youth Minister and near the end of his life he converted to Hinduism.

He joined the Mormons for the same reason Jodi did. Lots and lots of naive, trusting victims.

I never read that Ted Bundy converted to Hinduism. I have read that he "died a Methodist" and did not embrace Mormonism but I never heard that he converted to Hinduism. Interesting.

 

[ElleElle]

:rocker: That's a start.

And unfortunately there is more of this nonsense to come.

Well, Alyce says she's not an abuser, so there's that.

 

[AuburnSchnauzer]

I wonder if there have been any new members join here with an IP address from Maricopa County, AZ...I'm sure Juror #5 has by now seen the interrogation tapes.

 

[Nhic]

She was always saying her father didn't have long to live......

 

[Truth Detector]

Disagree. The difference is she was caught after killing her first victim. I've no doubt if she is diagnosed as a socio/psychopath and released that she'll kill again as there is no cure for that disorder.

She will kill again whether she is released or not.

The only assurance that her repeat offense will not be the murder of a guard, another inmate, or -- God forbid -- if she is released, another law-abiding citizen on the street, is her swift execution.

 

[WithMyLittleEye]

That explains why she went loaded with a knife and a gun...got have two murder weapons as well to satisfy that OCD thing.

And two black pants with white stripes and zippers!

Most psychiatrists accept the theory that Dissociative Identity Disorder is a form of schizophrenia. Jodi does not exhibit signs of schizophrenia.

She didn't pack that 9mm and the knives for no camping trip for sure, I wonder who was next on her list, MM maybe? I still want to see him on the stand and under pressure.

 

[Dum-Dum Sucker]

Well this expert is dubious in many ways.

Bundy was flunking out of law school--though he has his undergrad degree. And he did use his cunning to get away with many murders for a long time, and escape twice.

And Jodi?

Bundy's flunking out of law school has nothing to do with his intelligence, imo.
