Closing arguments- thread #173

[nursebeeme]

I will say that I was definitely surprised at just how all out blatantly Juan was allowed to call ALV a liar.. I mean there was no alluding to, or implying that LaViolette's testimony was questionable .. nope, it was just very blatant stating as fact that LaViolette, just as Jodi, both were not just LIARS, but that BOTH had looked each and every one of those jurors in their face and LIED!

I was laughing my off when he said that ALV had left the fact off that she was a LIAR on her CV!!... bwaaaahahahaha!...that was adding hilarious and I know that Alyce was without doubt watching this closing argument LIVE and was hearing those very, very, very damning words spoken by this extremely reputable Prosecutor...and IMO she damn well knows those damning words are literally marking the end of the road for her as not just an expert witness, but as in any role whatsoever in her profession IS OVER!

JMO but that is exactly what you get when making a choice to lie and act in such an unethical manner...it is merely the consequence of her direct action in choosing to blatantly lie, deceive, and cohort with a cold blooded, remorseless murderer!

I cannot wait til after the trial is over and hopefully we learn what all has transpired wrt ALV and IMO her being exposed as being dishonest and deceitful for this defense.

bbm: closed door hearings baby:rockon:

I am heading over to the poll to change my vote.. I FOR SURE am reading here and muting.

seriously. I do not kid here at all.

Five days to do a closing argument, is not my cup of tea either. :floorlaugh:

I really enjoyed when he reminded the juror's that JA actually told them that she'd injured both her head and her finger while murdering TA. I will never forget that little bit of testimony. She totally f'd up and then everything continued as though nothing had happened. She backtracked big time and the DT completely ignored it going forward. I'd love to see that again!

Finishing up the last part of Juan's closing. the man is just amazing!!!

So on HLN their saying that Nurmi isn't feeling well.

If I were him I wouldn't be feeling well either. But I do question if he's sick at all. So does Mr Pizza, he says it's just a preemptive excuse for the lack of delivery tomorrow compared to today.

$12.96 the cost of pre-mediated murder

 

[oceanblueeyes]

I missed the part about the CDs but read so many comments about how that really sealed premeditation for many of you. Can someone catch me up to speed and explain the relevance? Thanking you!

It just shows she lied once again. She said going to see Travis was a spur of the moment thing after he guilted her (eyeroll) when she was enroute to Utah.

Yet if she had the CDs that Travis wanted with her all along it means she planned to go to Mesa when she left Yreka.

IMO

I thought Nurmi was pretty dynamic the couple of times we saw him do actual argument and not examination.

 

[Becky Sharp]

I'm trying to think of some of Juan's memorables. Help me out please

The gopher, tiger and bear
The jury carrying Jodi's gas cans
He wasn't going to chase her outside naked.

Ornate liar (I sooo love that)
A horde of skateboarders :floorlaugh: (Unleash the skateboarders!)

 

[gngr~snap]

Thank you for all the advice about tweets letting us know about the verdict. I am OLD and do not tweet. I thought I was good being able to text. If anyone knows of anywhere to sign up for texts or is willing to text me when the verdict comes in and they get a tweet, please please PM me and I will give you my cell phone number. I would so so so appreciate it.

Just send the word BREAKING to 23765
They will text you back to confirm.

When you don't want it any longer just text the word STOP to 23765

Watching again and noticing all the allusions, similes & metaphors JM used:

- Rainbow/over the rainbow imagery
- EBB quote "How do I love thee? Let me count the lies."
- Marriage allusion: "She said it, she's wedded to it."
- Wildebeest herd reference
- Smell of gasoline on your hands/MacBeth allusion

I'm sure there were more. I'm even more sure that the man is a genius. And a :hero:

bbm: that will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, leave my mind... the rainbow part. Seeing it in blood on the wall and knowing where travis ended up and where he could have gone if he were not stalked and murdered by arias

 

[Chelly]

JVM said she just tried to get JA mother and gram to comment and they refused. Too bad she didn't chase them down the street like she did Baez. Maybe they would have talked just to get her off their backs.

 

[HarvestMoon]

I'll listen, but when and if he gets really nasty, then boom, it's over. I like to be informed all the way around.

 

[King Tut]

O M G HLN just said that Nurmi is feeling "under the weather".

He BETTER NOT stall.

Ya, I'd be feeling under the weather too if I had just been blasted full-on in the face by Hurricane Juan:stormingmad:

Yeah he wants 3 days to prepare!

[Tulessa]

But, after Nurmi we get Juan again. Don't want to miss that.

The board will spike when he gets up. No danger of missing him! :floorlaugh:

bbm: closed door hearings baby:rockon:

Beth Karas said on WS radio that after the trial is over these will be unsealed .. do we know that for sure? As in how do we get a hold of them and the sidebars if that happens? If it costs money I think we should all chip in a little and get them up here .. would be VERY interested to see what went on, in particular with ALV.

Realityman, if you're here and haven't figured out the felony murder stuff yet, here's a link to the minute entry where the court decides to allow the charge and discusses the case she relies on to do it.

Actually thinking about it, death would be too good for her.

I'd like to her to remember today for the rest of her living days in a locked-up place. Because apparently, she cannot remember the day she brutality massacred Travis.

Juan picked the fight, fought the battle and won. JU-AN

Let's all strongly hope for the best outcome - DP or LWOP. I'm fed up with the cruelty in this world and the perps who get away with it. I hope my faith in humanity doing the right thing will be restored. DP DP DP DP.
