JW sit down. Your questions are not good.

 

[ParrotGal]

Dr. Horn could easily join the cast of Grey's Anatomy and give Doctor Derek "McDreamy" Shephard a run for his money. Just sayin'

Dang! I do love me a smart and noble man!

I don't know why, but to me, but I "buy" premeditated murder if the gunshot came first and then it went wrong and she stabbed him, etc but to me a stabbing is more a crime of passion. Does anyone else see why I would think that?

I think premeditated murder has been proven regardless which weapon was used first. The gun went with her - even if she'd strangled him - the gun, hair dye, rental, gas cans, Ryan, etc. show premeditation.

(But I'm a knife first gal - who believes that was used first solely for sadistic intent.)

ETA: Crime of passion means, legally, someone snapping in the heat of the moment. Like Clara Harris, who ran over her husband repeatedly, after catching him at a hotel with his mistress.

I can't believe wilmott thinks she can argue against this science. Detailing what the bullet did is most likely NOT helping her client.

Because maybe you understand something different under crime of passion than the legal definition? Not trying to put words in your mouth here lol. But I believe this was a crime of passion in the sense that there was a lot of passion behind this killing. A lot of rage and hatred. And I bet every time she stabbed him felt good to her sick soul. I think shooting him in the head would've been too easy. She wanted to hurt him and have him suffer.

It wasn't a crime of passion in the sense that she acted impulsively in that moment because of something Travis did immediatly prior to her killing him.

Oh come on JA, push your hair back and show us your faux tears!

 

[JayB12]

How is Willmott helping their case here?

 

[tlcya]

this is where I will be listening with only one ear and half my attention. I still steadfastly disagree with the ME and believe the gunshot was first followed by the slashing stabby banshee attack.

I do not believe JA went to the trouble of stealing a gun to bring to a premeditated stabbing. JMO

 

[seguek9]

Theres a seperate thread for that...fortunately

I predict an extended weekend filled with gun vs. knife posts following today's testimony. :biggrin:

 

[Truth Detector]

JW's trying to say that TA would have been able to yell, curse and chase JA after being shot through the brain with a .25 caliber slug.

Didn't happen.

Let's ask him if he could TALK if he was shot first!!!!!

I mean, that's when he said "f'ing kill you B***" right???

 

[Mormon Attorney]

She should be FORCED to look at these pictures :stormingmad:

These pictures don't bother her one bit. She asked the detective to see them. She is forcing herself NOT to look so the jury will think they bother her.

 

[Tulessa]

Gah! She's admiring her handiwork!

 

[Elphaba]

Jodi's nose may be red, but there is not a tear in her eye.

 

[Nhic]

Not one tear from JA. Stone cold. Heartless. Psychopath.

It is weird. I wish she would just sit down and give it up.

 

[katiewonders]

I have been watching JA closely, trying to see the real tears/running nose. I just don't see any at all. I think she is pretending (again).

I don't usually quote myself, but I just realized that JA keeping her hair hanging is purposeful -- she doesn't want the jury to see if she has any tears or not, just that she is wiping with the tissue. I really can't wait for verdict day.

 

[darcedarce]

Why is JA crying?
