jodi arias TAKES THE STAND #64 *may contain graphic and adult content*

[popsicle]

Well, good bye In Session. I'll miss you

What a sad ending huh?

 

[Maggie802]

i'm still trying to figure out how this camera hit the mat, then bounced a couple of times before it came to rest when she says she was KNEELING.

is it a rubber camera?

Thank you, exactly what I was thinking. She embellishes her lies with movie like visuals. She did the same thing with her lie regarding walking in on Travis while he was looking at the pictures of the little boys. According to her the paper floated through the air, " as paper does" and landed image side up directly at her feet. Really?

 

[Stolat]

I did not see the one on the left before.

Thank goodness she is an idiot. I mean she is obviously carrying the camera around with her. I think she was proud of this whole thing. Did she take a picture of him Dead in the shower when she was done?

By "carrying around" do you mean she has the strap on her arm (presumably down by her wrist) and the camera is dangling down by her feet?


That's something I hadnt thought of before but makes perfect sense. Perhaps it was spinning (as my stupid purse has a tendency to do when it slides down to my wrist when carrying in groceries) and perhaps as its spinning, when it hits her foot it keeps hitting the shutter button - keeping in mind that most digital cameras have a slight lag time delay before actual shutter deploys and the time the button is depressed/hit.

 

[Hopeful One]

I think I'm the only one who thinks she dragged him in a sheet and that's what the picture without her foot shows.

My camera doesn't bounce.. I wish that were true...

The only problem I have with that is the strap wasn't on the camera when found. So how was she carrying it?? Did she remove the strap? Or was it found in the case?

 

[StephanieHartPI]

the only time i believe she could have dropped that camera is when she plunged a knife in him and he was totally caught off guard.

This seems like a good jumping in place for a newly registered but long time reader, so here I go:

I was incredibly annoyed watching the THs last night and the size comparison graphic they were airing. It seems whoever created the graphic decided to shave 2" off JAs height and ten pounds off of her weight to make the size difference more pronounced that it was. The graphic presented her as 5' 4" and 119 pounds yet, her driver's license data and booking sheet information clearly give her height as 5' 6" and her weight as 125 and 119 pounds, respectively. I'm 5' 6" and 125 lbs. At JAs age and in good physical condition, I could have done it. Which is why I, too, never had any doubt that she did do it and that she did it alone.

Welcome to Websleuths!

I agree that she could and did move Travis alone. I looked after my aunt a few years back,(Multiple Sclerosis) she decided to make the journey to the bathroom alone and ended up on the floor, well till this day some wonder how I picked her up and put her back in the wheelchair she missed.
A lot of the problem with moving dead/passed out/paralyzed people is knowing how to use your body and weight and their body and weight to your advantage.

The strap was found in the camera case, still wrapped up like when you purchase it.

What do you all think of this woman who has been making the rounds of every single one of HLN's and TruTV's broadcasts, who says she was a friend of Travis from PPL and because she is an "intuitive" she sensed a negative aura around him.

She has been on with Nancy Grace, JVM, Dr Drew, Jinkasaurus, and maybe other shows as well, saying exactly the same thing on each show. Slightly accented English.

She hasn't contributed a single worthwhile insight to anything. I don't understand why they are all booking her. All she's said is that she sensed a weird negative vibe about Travis like something terrible was about to happen, and then also a weird positive vibe, like everything was okay and he was going to be at peace. She sounds like a Saturday Night Live caricature of a psychic.

WTH? :waitasec:

 

[Softail]

I would even pay to see that. :floorlaugh:

Me Too! :giggle:

I think I'm the only one who thinks she dragged him in a sheet and that's what the picture without her foot shows.

Where's the sheet? I see a shadow covering the lower part of his back (in the darker photo/no foot). The blood isn't covered in any way, doesn't pool or disperse (as if meeting fabric), and you can clearly see the blood pattern continues smoothly down into the darker, lower area... I don't see any fabric or sheet, just shadow...

ETA: The 'shiny' thing in the bottom left photo is JM's pen.

Wouldnt it be hard for her to drag a body of 180 lbs of dead weight all by herself?

lol, you should come in here at 2 am as we discussed within the last 2 nights that woman who killed her hubby, and dragged him to the yard. (Can't remember the name. anyone remember?..she stabbed him over 100 times, and the lady prosecutor actually brought the marital bed into court to do a demonstration of the stabbing!! She was convicted) Anyway..... the way she did it was tying a rope (hmmm, like the one used in their sexcapades) around his hands to better pull/drag the body around. and yep, his head facing bedroom and feet towards hall when neck was sliced, as you can see the spot with the blood. Jaun also pointed out all those very very many footprints next to the right of the main pool. Probably Jody turning him around/rolling him over etc. :moo: That's the reason I strongly consider that the whole sex/tying up scenario was in there, and Jodi KNEW through discovery that the filaments of the rope was found.....and so two birds with one stone. Reason to have knife, and explanation on what the rope evidence was used for other than her using to drag the body.

Does anyone have an idea what part of Travis is in the very last photo taken when she murdered him? Is it his arm?

And I bet she had a LOT of adrenaline pumping through her body which can give people tremendous strength that they don't normally have.

An adrenaline rush is the fight or flight response of the adrenal gland, in which it releases adrenaline (epinephrine). When releasing adrenaline, one's body releases dopamine which can act as a natural pain killer. An adrenaline rush causes the muscles to perform respiration at an increased rate improving strength. It also works with the nervous system to interpret impulses that trigger selective glands.

In addition to a noticeable increase in strength and performance, this hormone typically causes heightened awareness and increased respiration. The person may also feel lightheaded, dizzy, and experience changes in vision. These effects can last up to an hour, depending on the situation.

The above alleviates any questions about whether or not she was strong enough. It doesn't matter, since we know she DID do it, but there are still some people out there who are trained to believe that women, especially if they are at all smaller, heck even if they are the same size, are always going to lose in a physical fight with a man, so they have have a warped sense of what is and isn't physically possible. We know that Jodi wouldn't cover for someone else, and is 100% more likely to throw THEM under the bus in order to get herself out of hot water. So, it's such a non issue that it is annoying to even read people theorize about there being someone else there to help her.

I even feel like some people judge Travis for not being able to save himself. They aren't considering that he was stunned, and that one of those stab wounds nicked his heart, and that he was naked and wet, in one of the most vulnerable positions imaginable. Jodi knew what she was going to do to him. He didn't. She had the upper hand. It's not like in the movies when someone stabs someone once and stops to give them a chance to fight back. She KEPT stabbing him, over and over again, and he just could never get the upper hand enough to overcome or get away from her because she was relentless.

It saddens me that common sense just isn't so common anymore.

Still re-listening to Wednesday's testimony. The morning deals with their sex life and the sex phone call. I am so glad Juan didn't take a " shaming" view---he maintained that it was normal for two people who were intimate to have fantasies, have sex, talk on the phone sexually, etc. He equalized them sexually, and didn't try to paint her as a "bad woman" for what her and Travis were doing. I think this was a very subtle technique for taking away the "sexually deviant" accusation by the defense.

Jodi agreed with all of Juan's assertions that all of their sex behavior was normal and enjoyable for both. Very mutual. Nice work.

 

[Nosey Parker]

Perhaps they need to re-enact that in court. Have the wind knocked out of her and see how long it takes her to recover. I'd watch. opcorn:

:giggle:

I wonder how many volunteers would leap to their feet? :floorlaugh:
