jodi arias TAKES THE STAND FOR 11TH DAY #57 *may contain graphic and adult content*

[Truth Detector]

Geez, and you believe this?????

Even if the lack of food were true , it is not cruel. Please, let's leave cruelty to the 29 stab wounds on Travis' body, and the gunshot to his head, and the slitting of his throat almost to the point of decapitation. Let's remember the blood gushing from his throat in that photo where she's dragging him back to the bathroom.

Is everyone taking crazy pills here???????

I'm guessing that Travis Alexander was not served lunch before he was butchered and shot.

 

[paperwing]

In our case there was no LWOP at that time in AZ so with parole in 25 yrs it was a nobrainer. Interestingly although we never really discussed it, we were a family who would probably be anti DP if we'd not landed in that "heinous" situation.

After two decades of appeals, I'm left with only one wish. That they get forgotten. Execution won't make anything better for any of us. Except we will stop getting bugged by their attorneys and representatives. Their DP attorneys have tortured us in various ways for years. In the name of "justice" for murderers. It's no picnic. I'm sure parole hearings are no picnic either. LWOP takes both off the table. So yeah, in hindsight I'd probably prefer that sentence.

With that being said, Jodi Arias along with Michael and Rudi Apelt ARE "the worst of the worst" so they do qualify for the "worst of the worst" sentence. And it is more suffering for them in certain ways. I'm sure the life on DR will be far worse for JA than in General Pop.

And with all that being said I am 100% behind Jodi Arias being sentenced to death for one simple reason: it's what this family wants.

I stand behind them in solidarity 100% . This is one place they have a tiny piece of control. I will champion for this sentence and be there with them for their Victim Impact Statements and support them in all ways with this.

Hope this helps...??

More than you know! Thank you so much...

Guys, I think the point folks are tryint o make -myself included- is whether it would be useful to the DT on appeal. And it just might.

 

[TartLemon]

It's not about lunch y'all. The DT never even mentioned it until the afternoon BREAK. Their client is blatantly lying in sworn testimony.

That's IMO

 

[pallmall]

Am I wrong? I thought Jodi said she was working when she got the peni$ photo on her phone. Today she said she was at a dinner with a table of other people.

I thought she said she was in an auditorium while attending some kind of PPL presentation.

 

[G&AMom]

I just want to state that I personally find this really offensive. She is not being tortured, there is no cruelty involved. She may be missing a meal and haven't we all, and unless she is diabetic, I don't understand the import. Sounds like promulgating of hysteria to me and totally buying into the defence's idea that she is such a victim.

I don't want to get down in the gutter with Jodi; I would like to think I would give any human being three meals a day & a roof over their head. In this instance, though, I think lunch is just the excuse. I've heard other people call a headache a migraine even though it clearly wasn't. I guess they think it sounds more serious. But she was just fine until the break -- pretty convenient headache, whether it was a migraine or not.

Me too she won't die as heinous and brutal as how she killed Travis but I support the family to remove her oxygen from this earth. Poof gone

 

[Truth Detector]

Question!!

Now that Jodi has "Opened the door" and named Shannon Crabtree-Peterson, can she now be called in as a witness for rebuttal?

Showing my age, but her name reminds me of Mrs. Crabtree from the Little Rascals.

This Miss Crabtree, actually June Marlowe?

 

[passionflower]

anyone else having problems with WS?
I hit thanks and the whole page refreshes,
then it says I don't have permission to be on a page????

 

[kscornfed]

yes but - and i am not supporting defense, just don't want an appeal - testifying as a lot more strenuous that laying around her cell sketching pics - and she doesn't have access to the jail canteen in court - and can't use the money on her books in court - imo -

i don't know about the rules of her family buying her snacks or her bringing food w/ her from jail?? but i would think sheriff joe would prolly be very strict about this from his previous actions - imo

I just don't like the dishonesty of it. It's not about lunch or hunger. She's not fuzzy minded. Her lawyer wanted to stop her testimony, which wasn't going well for her. That's what I don't like.

The inmates are provided 2600 calories per day.
According to the guard @ Estrella NG interviewed, they are allowed to bring their b-fast or whatever leftovers to the courthouse with them.
I don't see the problem.

Thanks for that! Which makes me wonder why the brouhaha about this.

 

[manzana]

Out of curiosity, was Jodi given bail, I had always assumed she had no bail but a poster a few pages back, said had she had money she would be out on bail.

Was she given a bail and what amount if so?

TIA

bump!

 

[atthelake]

I have a behavior question. We have now heard about several boyfriends and one by one, pretty much each one she has either read their text messages when they fell asleep or were in a shower, or read their hotmail and printed things out.

Mostly in her words catching them in these inappropriate conversations.

I don't really know of one person she did not do this to (maybe the last one, Ryan)

I have never done this, I'm not saying that would not be tempting but I have never felt like I wanted to. I suppose if I had feelings something was wrong, I'd simply act on those but not sneak in and go through mail.

How odd is it that she did this to so many guys? I don't want the fact she "alleges" to have found "dirt" on most all of them to diminish the the behavior of looking at their private things in the first place.

:blushing: I have. And ended up breaking an engagement over it. Red Flags of him online in middle of night (he was chatting) led me to sleuth him........ and then dump him. :blushing: and yep.........on my way out the door, I let the girl that he was seeing know that we had been living together, and what was happening on my end. I know that many many think that doing such is an invasion of privacy, but I'll be d*(*ed if I get into a marriage with someone like that. (And the man.....lied through his teeth)... Nope, I didn't kill him......just moved on. :blush:

Don't throw rotten apples please!

 

[momtective]

Anyone watching JVM? I'm sitting in a local restaurant watching it and I keep wanting to yell for everyone in here to shut up! They just showed JA's *spread* on the 54" screen and my dh almost choked on his pie...:floorlaugh:

 

[elementary]

I'm a little slow getting here, But, as someone who suffers the occasional migraine, this is a bunch of dunky dust. The lights hurt your eyes, normal sounds are way too loud, you just want to lay your head down. You are not craving a peanut butter sandwich, you feel like throwing up. Also, this constant bantering with JM gives him more information to use against her now, and she is smiling and being so arrogant, like she is winning over him. This does not a battered woman make. MOO

I want to reinforce this once again. Everything you said about migraines is a fact.

 

[oceanblueeyes]

I think Nurmi just wanted to get her off the stand because JM was on a roll and was headed to make his big point for the afternoon. And the DT saw a way to get her off the stand early. JMO

It is fine though, because it gives Juan the chance to look over the transcript and tighten up his aim for tomorrow. :wink:

Exactly. Nurmi was trying to stop the 'bleeding.'

She was being exposed left and right.

imo

 

[JusticeJunkie]

My DH has been watching parts of the trial with me. He thinks Arias' migraine is because she doesn't want the pics of her breast pre-surgery to come out.
Hmmmm

I agree. Her lawyer pulls tricks to 'help' her!
and why is JA allowed to speak the way she does to prosecutor?
Judge doesn't control her court......IMOO

Yes, that's her, she looks like a cupie doll.
