My DH was annoying me looking for something called "dinner" tonight. After reminding him that today is National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day, I was able to convince him that in order to celebrate, that was for dinner. :)

I hope you added bacon.....
 
I think she has been snubbed by her BFF today. The little flirtations that have been going on between her and JW were non-existent today. Even yesterday during questioning, her and JW were inappropriate with each other (IMO). Today, not so.

Im sure that is part of her pouting. And who knows what is going on back at the jail.....she is a troublemaker and im sure they are not making life cushy for her right now.

maybe the dt gave her the smackdown re. the twitter comments so ja got all pouty.
 
I'm projecting myself, I know it. A woman I knew years ago (she was my intern at one of my first jobs out of college) went to England on an exchange. I had plans to go to England in the fall. Before she left, she said, "Let's meet up when you come to the UK and hang out."

I said, "Yes, let's e-mail and keep in touch."

She was one of those ultra happy people always looking for the silver lining. I asked her one morning if she drank! :floorlaugh: Seriously, she was that chirpy.

She was super friendly but I never really thought she really wanted to meet up. We all say these things to each other when we part ways after college, from one job to another, from one gym to another. We exchanged a few e-mails over that summer and that was it. I wasn't surprised or disappointed because I thought we were exchanging social niceties.

In early October (my trip was mid October), she sent an e-mail asking where I'd be staying. A few days later, she e-mailed train schedules and maps from my hotel . She was in York and I was in London so it was quite the train trip. Beautiful though.

When the train pulled into the station, I didn't recognize her. She'd had a hair cut and was wearing a stylish scarf around her hair and she was just glowing. We talked about her boyfriend back home and a new guy she'd met in York. She was fascinated with him and conflicted by her feelings for her bf back home. She said she'd date this new guy and see how she felt over the winter break when she returned home.

We didn't keep in touch for a while after I left York but she'd sent me away with recommended books and asked me to pass them on after I read them. She sent a couple of letters and one of the letters was how she was engaged. When she got back to Holy Cross, she could not stop thinking about him.

Mutual friends said that she moved to England and shortly afterwards, she and her husband and new baby moved back here.

I never saw her again. Her husband shot her in the head and their daughter Lilian whilst they slept. And during the trial he claimed she was depressed and that she killed herself and the baby. Was he out of his MF mind? OMG.

He was found guilty and rots in prison. You've probably heard about the case. My friend was Rachel Souza. I refuse to ever refer to her by her married name, which was Entwhistle.

I know I'm too caught up in this case but there is just something obscene and truly pornographic to take someone's life and decide to take the only thing the dead have: their dignity and honor.

So I'm ambivalent about the DP but I know I want her to be convicted. I want her to know we all judge her and find her wanting. I want her in a little cell with no one to admire her and take photos and film her every move and report on her every blink.

She already thinks she's won because she took what no other woman will ever have. But she's still a flaming narcissist who needs constant validation and I want her in a plain little cell with only herself for company for ever and ever and ever.

I want her in a panic now that the sand is running out of the hourglass and I want her to sweat. And I want the Alexander family to make their impact statements and then I want the jury to verbally body slam her with their sentence, whatever that may be.

So, I'll keep posting smarty arse comments about the trial but I'm never forgetting what it's about. And it isn't a spectator sport for me. I'm a heat seeking missile where this chick is concerned and I have no shame about it. :)

OMG, another late night vent. I swear I don't drink or drug. lol

Chills are going all thru my body ... that case really broke my heart.

I just love any jury question that starts with..... "You claim"

:giggle:
 
JUST WANT TO SEND KUDOS TO THE JURY----YOU ARE ONE SMART BUNCH OF PEOPLE--THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE !!!!:fence::fence::fence::fence:

I remember that trial. I am sorry for your loss and pain.

Does anyone know if the gun/bullets that JA possibly stole from her grandparents the same size/type that was used to shoot TA? thanks ia

Yes, the gun used to put a bullet through Travis's frontal lobe was a .25 caliber, as was the handgun stolen from JA's grandfather one week before Travis was shot.

Same size/type of ammunition for both weapons.

Indeed! The first question was like, "Somislaviolettewhenyouansweredaquestionaboutwhethertherewasmanipulationyouindicatedthatitdependendonthesituation, right?" Yes. "soinotherwordsyoucan'treallytelliftherewasmanipulationbyJodiunlessyouhavecontext? Yes.

Whew! She was tweaking!

Yea i noticed it too. She seemed kinda ticked off witht he jury questions since most of them basically said BS/you lied/jodi is a murderer... I mean her behavior was of panic and anger.
 
I just would like to say that I really like Det. Flores..he seems like a stand-up guy with a lot of integrity.
And, just wondering, why is it that JM always refers to himself in the third person when he questions his witnesses. ex: Do you want to spar with the prosecutor?
 
I think the vehemence of the Juror questions knocked the wind right out of Jodi's sails today.
 
Q: On the one side we have demeaning slurs, a slap, a shove, a chokehold, and a lunge perpetrated on Jodi. On the other, we have a gunshot to the head, a 4 inch deep throat slit and close to 30 stab wounds delivered by Jodi to Travis. Is not the perpetrator of the greatest domestic violence Jodi?

I think that was one of the big ones the jury asked today...imo
 
Thanks G&A Mom for posting the jurors questions. I didn't get to hear even half of them today and was wondering why everyone is saying that it's not good for Jodi and her DT. It sure seems that way from the questions! Awesome!

You're right and part of what I meant when I wrote that it's important to keep perspective is that this is a vicious, wrenching process for his family, in a way that I can't appreciate.
Thanks for a great post!
 
I agree with you and hope she gets LWOP...I feel a bit different then you do, I think the DP should be for someone that murders 2 or more people, mass murderers and serial killers.

Plus after all the appeals of the DP that JA will apply for it will cost more money than if they would have just given her LWOP in the first place. MOO and all that.

BBM...Bothers me too:cry::nerves:

I am not a fan of the death penalty, which I wont go into here.

This case has got me in a quandary though. I love Juan and his art, yet I really don't like the defence team or their 'expert witnesses'. I particularly don't like Arias and her lying stabbing psycho behaviour.

I know she is guilty and manipulated Travis, made his life a misery in the end and then did what she did June 4th.
I still hope she gets life in solitary, no pens, pencils, paper and as limited contact as is legally possible with the outside world.

Israel Keyes summed up that situation well. He wanted the DP as quick as possible, he didn't want to spend a life behind bars as that was worse to him than a quick execution. He commited suicide by slashing his wrists then strangling himself.
If Arias had the guts to do that to herself I wouldn't shed a tear.

Thats all.
 
I think the vehemence of the Juror questions knocked the wind right out of Jodi's sails today.

I hope so! I would like to actually see her shake or sweat.
