I have been lurking along with others for a while and think this is probably the most insightful web spot concerning this case I have found. Mesa and Katie I not only enjoy reading your court room insider updates and posts but they give me and others a view beyond the live stream which gives a more complete perspective of the case then any of the talking heads.
JA is probably one of the most frustrating yet fascinating sociopathic personalities out there and I highly suspect there is a lot more going on inside that head then anyone of us is aware of. IMO she ranks equally if not on par with Ted Bundy and a few others famous serial killers in regards to her behavior and thinking process. I suspect JA has no real idea of "who" she actually is and I find it interesting that she has no real female friends at all, just men. I know in my own experience I have known one particular female at one time or another in my life I just felt something was very off about them. The kind you just could not form any type of connection with who seemed so superficial and fake. That one woman that you knew you could not trust around your husband or BF and not because you did not trust them so much but the fact you knew you could not trust her.
If you watch her closely on the stand her eyes and her mouth speak differently. Try covering up on section of her face and focus on that alone such as her mouth area, and vice versa and see what you observe.
She went from religion to religion testing the waters based on what the person she was interested in was interested in and morphs herself into what she feels with get her foot into a door, and oddly it works because she is able to take what ever she is currently interested in and digest the information and appear well versed in it. Based on her performances on the stand she thinks she is an expert in everything. I am not really amazed at how she is able to manipulate so many men in this case either because I am sure if you sat them down and got to know their life history you would find that none of them actually have good self esteem deep inside for what ever reason. Men hide their insecurities differently then women do and she like any predator who lacks in real emotions is able to pick up on signals normal people might not in her "victims".
IMO Travis was actually a victim of DV, Jodi has twisted his story for her own needs is all. No woman that was abused that I have ever known, to include myself, behaves like she is. Her claims of abuse disgust me and all she did was educate and morph her story to the point she actually believes she is a victim of abuse. Then to make it even better you have the few people she is able to manipulate currently feeding into her story which adds to her victim role. That's what even sicker. She believes herself and has convinced herself and no one will ever tell her otherwise. Ted Bundy claimed his innocence as well, he was a lost soul just as JA is.
Thank you all for your insightful postings and keeping others like myself informed a bit better then the media! BTW Matt McCartney screwed himself in all this because he was stupid enough to post on a website that he would lie for Jodi, etc.....Not a really bright thing to do....loose lips sink ships as they say....
Hopping off my fence post now and Juan is probably the worst thing that ever happened to JA!:seeya:
