Oh no Samspace! That doesn't go with the fantasy espoused in which Jodi is envisaged as Queen Bee with all prisoners and guards (perhaps even the Warden) doing her secret bidding. Nooooh. The fantasy cannot be altered. Remember, Jodi is the most dangerous being ever (not even human, donchaknow), and she can simultaneously charm AND kill all other prisoners. No other inmate at Perryville can possibly be as evil as the Arias-creature. She'll be embraced by all her new BFFs, who will bow to their new leader and both love and fear her, is how it's supposed to go.

For the first time ever I am having a strawberry frappuccino in honor of the fact Jodi never will again. It is kind of gross LOL
BK: "Her case has spawned two trials, countless motions and hearings, and hundreds of hours of testimony but, after a 4-month retrial, we are no closer to understanding what really happened on June 4, 2008 ..."
JA could have told this jury what happened on June 4 that caused her to slaughter Travis, but she chose not to, beyond claiming 6 hrs. post-slaughter at the Hoover Dam she first realized she'd done something bad that day, but she wasn't sure what. She never owned what she did to this jury or expressed the wrongness of it, so imo she deserves the DP.

Anyone know what Juan's next trial will be ? I have seen a few times on 48 hours and dateline, wonder where he will be next. I love watching him in action.
It appears that mother Arias is more supportive than father Arias. If I feel sorry for any of them, it is for the younger brother. Remember way back when, when Det Flores interviewd them, mother Arias was astonished at how JA could go on as if nothing had happened after the murder? I think they felt that she had done what LE reportedd to them. At some point Arias started all of the abuse claims, mother Arias must have fell for it. Only way to explain and to adjust to what her daughter is capable of, outrageous rage and violence. Surely at some point in her past they must have seen some inklings of her rage?
But they wouldn't have to be known as that if they were normal, like us, and could see their daughter for the killer she is instead of spewing her lies and wearing DV ribbons etc. when they KNOW it's not true. I think they could have stood by their daughter and loved her in spite of what she did, but still stand for justice and realizing that she has to pay the penalty. All of that AND they could be kind and sympathetic to the Alexanders and all that they have had to go thru. But instead they keep peddling lies, and act like Jodi got convicted for something she didn't do when that is clearly not the case.
Would you want to believe your daughter was a cold hearted murderer? I wouldn't. I can not hold it against a mother for not wanting to believe the worst. We will see what happens in the future.
