The transcript was unsealed because the judge ruled that the matters at issue (Jodi's testimony about the pics and masturbation) are coming in. So there's no further reason to keep that out of the public record. She allowed it, imo, because it's direct testimony from an eyewitness and to disallow it, she'd have to find that it was excludable on some basis other than hearsay, like relevance. I think the defense expert was called to testify exactly how the incident plays into the defense - i.e., to establish its relevance. The judge will err on the side of caution in favor of Jodi because she is facing the death penalty. If it makes you feel better, she's probably allowing lots of stuff in because she knows it won't impact the outcome and will avoid reversible error.

thank you - that does make sense, better that jodi doesn't have reasonds for appeal - and i am just hoping this will backfire in her face, that it will be so outrageous that it throws middle of the line jurors to the guilty side

Hi everyone! I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to join. My name is Kristin and I live in AZ.

I don't typically follow trials like this, or even watch the news much, but this case has me hooked! Jodi is a whole new level of evil and I can't wait to watch her go down in flames! :furious:

I only watched bits and pieces of the prosecution, but even so, I am definitelly a Juanette!! Watching him flip the defense witnesses to benefit the state has been great! I can't wait to see him destroy Jodi on cross!!! :great: I was so excited when I saw that she took the stand. I don't know if I'll be able to stomach watching her make more ridiculous accusations against Travis (his poor family), but I will be glued to the TV when Juan gets his turn at her! :rocker: Good luck keeping up with all your rehearsed stories when it's not Nurmi holding your hand! I'd be terrified going up against Juan even if I were innocent Lol

I do understand why the judge is allowing her to tell her LIES about what she "saw" but I don't think I can handle listening to it. I have to remind myself that the DV expert who says it's relevant to her state of mind is only doing her job and giving her opinion based on what JODI has told her. She makes me SICK! I keep telling myself that letting her go through all of this will give her less grounds to appeal on later. That and I truly believe that she'll go on and on about all of this and then Juan will get up there and rip apart her lies. I think the jury is going to be even more disgusted with her after being REMINDED that she's a horrible liar who has no remorse whatsoever and sentence her to death. Enjoy your last audience Jodi... no one is going to listen to your BS soon!!


:welcome: :seeya: Great first post!!! The defendant always seems to get so much latitude, and the victim not so much. I really hope this jury can see through her lies and come to the right verdict. I have to say that I have faith in this prosecutor though, and I think he will come through for Travis and give him the justice that he deserves.

Go Obie "Juan" Kenobi! :justice: Which one of the mods has that cool light sabre smiley? I needs that one right now. :)

It's about surviving ...close hand to hand, face to knee, spear hand to wind pipe, disarming weapons, elbow strike to nose...whatever it takes to get away alive....even if it means killing your attacker. No rules. It's about surviving.

I think you may have gotten faulty info from some of the articles. DB said they had anal sex - maybe once - when JM asked him if he had had it twice. Now the "maybe" once, was IMO a lie, but that is what he testified to. And his testimony included nothing on her preference. But let me tell you, my imagination is going overtime on this one.

I feel like when I try to interpret Travis in that photo, that it's like reading tea leaves. I'm seeing fear, but I know what happened moments after it was taken, so I don't think I'm being objective. But I also see anger if I'm looking for it. So, hence the tea leaves...

IMO

Good point. I think just knowing that it was taken within a minute or two of him dying makes it hard to look at.

I may get flamed for saying this, but if the defendant were male, there's no way he would be allowed to accuse his slaughtered female victim of being a peadophile.

IMO, IMO!!

Agreed. It's a very haunting photo.

I think that is perfect. It would be empowering and a confidence builder I bet.

100% AGREE!!! Flip the genders on this one and a lot of the victim blaming wouldn't even be allowed in, and if it was there'd be protesters in the streets.

Absolutely correct and no one would give a rats patootie if his mommy carried a spoon in her purse.
