Mmmmmm....candy!

Better than Toblerone, that's for damn sure.

He had beautiful sides and then pedophile side...

What are you? Sane? How, after listening to this?

So in JA's version of things, Travis was going to a awesome place like Cancun, and since he owed someone else money... who had a babysitter that they owed money to, it came to be that he was going to take said babysitter on trip to pay off his debt to this person so they could pay off the babysitter debt? :waitasec:

Wow. Okay, we know this is baloney, but even if it were true, why didn't his gun enthusiast friends know? Why didn't he bring it out to the range?

Might have felt a little awkward next to his friend's AR-15s.

Whether this gun was Travis' dad's or not should be easy to verify (or refute), I would think.

Even if it was, I don't see how it helps her. Not with all the other evidence of cruelty/premeditation. There was a knife involved, after all...

destressing = relaxing after sex ..... Well Webster sure got that wrong according to the dictionary of Jodi

Sex signals end of arugment

See, that's what I would consider make-up sex which a whole lot of couples where no one is abusive participate in.

I think Jodi has an extremely skewed interpretation of abuse altogether. A spanking as a child becomes beating. An argument becomes domestic violence. Someone raising their voice, likely out of frustration with her raging personality issues, becomes yelling.

I tend to think she perceives what she's been through as abuse, but because it doesn't fit the well known patterns, she has to twist and manipulate what has actually happened to be more consistent with a victim. And then lie, embellish, and engineer.

ETA: And I believe anyone who doesn't practically worship Jodi and believe every single lie coming out of her mouth is mistreating or abusing the little martyr, according to her warped definitions.

What's happening

 

[Ammonitida]

Well, her abuser gave her oral sex for hours while angry. Called her pollyana and hot while he was full of rage. What? You don't seem to believe that. :giggle:

Recall that Jodi had fantasies of rough sex involving Travis. During redirect she calls them "ravishment" fantasies. This angry, rough sex talk is all sexual fantasy for her, being lived out in a courtroom.

I'm guessing because this is a DP case, she's proceeding with extreme caution. At the end of it all, it would be a shame to have a guilty verdict overturned on appeal.

Makes total sense even though I want to smash my head with a meat mallet, repeatedly.

Am I the only one who thinks she's going WAY above and beyond protecting a guilty verdict. This has degenerated into making up random **** on a daily basis. No bueno imo. :twocents:

 

[LotusPawprint]

Oh, look!!! It's the Judge!! She IS in court!! When did she arrive? Did she just get there? Good of her to show up. Maybe she will chime in and set up a parameter here and there before Nurmi goes on for another 7 years.

 

[josie1986]

I didn't realize Nurms liked to dress up and role play.

ok really cant breath now
:floorlaugh::floorlaugh::floorlaugh:

 

[cece5300]

Juan has aaaallllll weekend and until Wednesday to prepare, so I'm confident he will have a few doozies. Drone on Jodi, drone on

 

[AngelWings444]

I love the sound of Mr. Martinez's voice. Especially today.

 

[leebee52]

 

[luvtenniss]

I want the judge to look at those letters, throw them at Nurmi and say "Ain't nobody got time for dat!"

 

[tang]

Can someone autotune Nurmis " how does that make you feel?" Into a tune? It would get instant playtime IMHO
