I truly am sorry if I caused ALV any emotional pain. That certainly is never my intention. Like others my biggest problem with her is that she is taking the word of an admitted liar and committing character assignation on a dead person who cannot defend himself. I will give her credit that she is taking the heat and sticking to her guns. Perhaps she really believes what she says but that doesn't mean she has to use her position as an expert on domestic violence to publicly state that opinion in a trial. She could have said no. She is a big girl and if she didn't know how unpopular her opinion was she sure found out soon enough. While I am sorry she is suffering distress I am not sorry for her. She can take some of the big paycheck and pay for some counselling and get over it. Travis can't get over it. He's dead.
I hope we get to the jurors' questions today. Any guesses on what the witness' demeanor will be for those questions? Will there be a lot of "I can't answer that yes or no"?
Sorry to beat this horse but is there a recommended image size? I think from now on I will post small pics with links to larger ones![]()
I can't understand why Juan didn't show her photos of the injuries on Travis's body.
Maybe recross!
Wonder if she might threaten to not come back unless media is removed from the courtroom?

Juan just walked by, he is in a light gray suit, his spirits seem high as usual. #JodiArias
Hi everyone! I couldn't stomach watching re-direct yesterday...is Wilmott still questioning or are we on to Juror's questions?
ALV and/her publisher would be getting notification of the reviews. Also, if people are calling her or the places she has on her schedule to speak at, she'd still hear what's happening.
Jodi is playing with the witnesses, the media and now this website. It's a shame how much power she has.
She may not be watching but she has the defense team that does, their friends, Jodi's friends and family. Her friends and family are probably keeping her abreast of what is said. I think if she would give honest answers to the prosecutor like she does the defense she would be in better shape. I think the defense and defendant may be causing her more stress with their consultations with her than she deserves. They expect their money's worth from someone they expect to bolster their frame of mind.Plus, she's not supposed to be reading, watching the media, or talking with anyone about the case, so how is people expressing their negative feelings and opinions of her performance as an expert witness in any way intimidating? Still, I'll follow the rules to the best of my ability.
I am going to TRY to be really, really good. But if I am really, really bad, you can delete all my posts. At least some of my anger will be let go through my finger tips. :seeya:![]()
From what I've seen it appears ALV comes across as uncooperative even combative except when being asked questions by the defense.
Just wanted to comment on a post from the previous now closed thread.
The video of Travis shooting firearms with friends will not have any effect on the jury, IMO. Here in Arizona, we have some of the most un-restricted gun laws in the Nation. It's not uncommon to go out "plinking" with friends, "target shooting", no matter what caliber or type of weapon. This may seem "strange" to people in other States. If you've lived here a while, or are a Native, it's a non-issue. I'd wouldn't hesitate to say that it's part of the culture?
