I've been thinking about the testimony about the fight or flight mode hmmm...If JA was really in such a panic and truely scared for her life I hope JM uses the defence expert's own words. I just keeep hearing the word FLIGHT in my mind. As in run out, leave. She could have chosen door number one you know. There was absolutely no reason to fight. He was wet and naked.
But since she had not yet killed him, she's not about to flee.
She was there on a mission which she had not yet accomplished while he was still alive in that shower, going to Cancun and living the rest of his life mostly without her in it.
Even more implausible is the fact that she never phones for help. Even in stressful situations women -- especially abused women -- call 911 every day. Many end up not pressing charges, but many do call.
If you had just butchered and shot a guy according to your detailed scheme, you're not calling 911 because it's nothing like self defense.
Travis wouldn't cooperate. He refused to die peacefully in that shower. What trouble he made for her!
And this is where other killers are more 'clever' than JA. They call 911 or arrange to have someone else call with their concocted stories and/or alibis on the record right away.
If she really wanted to get away with it, she left far too much to circumstance, and
WAY too much evidence.
JA was entirely ineffective with the some (most?) of the jury members. Their questions proved as much.
She is too clever by half. She fancied herself a professional photographer, but she had no idea how digital data are stored and recovered.
I'll bet she knows now and would like a do-over.
She is the kind who goes on to kill again. The only questions are whom and how many would have met Travis's end?
