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

[Sigh Sister]

quoting my own post it gets even better



in taxi driver, wasn't the name of Deniro's character TRAVIS?

Oh, wow. Lots of coincidences there!

 

[camcneishg]

I wish he would have tied her to a tree.......AND LEFT HER THERE!

 

[MyTinkieGirl]

IMO, she had "consciousness of thought" during the "supposed" attack. She KNEW where the gun was, as she's stated....she ran and got the gun....IMO, right there, is premeditation. Anyone knows a gun will kill, or debilitate, when a bullet hits a person.

By REMEMBERING where the gun was, then, actually running into the closet, climbing up to get it, and pointing it at him, does this become an act of HER protecting HERSELF from Travis, or Travis feeling the need to protect HIMSELF from a crazed Jodi with a gun??? Hmmmmm.....


ETA: Sorry needed to clarify I was referencing her "supposed" attack...maybe too early, not enough coffee for me to make total sense???

Hope our JM hammers JA with crime scene photos today. Let's see the smirk disappear from her hideous face.. She is laughing at the victim, at the victim's family, at the prosecutor, the judge and ultimately the justice system itself.

I've never seen a defendant act so smug and arrogant. Casey Anthony did laugh a bit in court but only when it was a real joke and everyone was laughing. Not appropriate even then but better than what JA does. The difference between KC and JA: KC would when dealing with the remains of her child say "Darn it. This smells bad. Kinda scary too. I'm going to have to remove this body and that will ruin my pretty manicure that I just had." Jodi on looking at the body of Travis would say "Wow. Blood. Pain. Torture. This is so interesting! Better take pictures!"

Now what I want to know is 10:15 a DROP DEAD starting time today?

Probably not - Jodi will have a migrane or something else so she won't have to face JM and get her brain all scrambled.

I wonder if it would help if she had a strawberry frappie and a cinnabon to get her mind working again!

:furious:

So if you believe the Arias fabrication about Travis having a gun and her knowing where it was kept, do you believe everything she is testifying to on the stand ? Remember, she has had 4+ years to weave this intricate web of lies.

 

[carnnell]

What got me was her desire to see the picture of the forensic folks were able to get off the memory card. Talk about going the whole length of her premeditation.. that told the rest of the story (as Paul Harvey use to say).

i think she already had the gun pointed at him in the time stamped photos, her story of him chasing her and her getting the gun is of course, another lie i'm waiting for JM to ask her to recite that story while showing those photos on the screens and asking " at which point did he chase you and tackle you , at which point did you run to the closet and get the gun" and "why was he sitting in the shower"?

 

[camcneishg]

today will be a great day for Travis.....I just have this feeling....

and didn't she even claim to have blacked out at one point? or was that in the Ninja story?

Oh, nooooo, I'm just going by HER "supposed" scenario....should she choose to stick with it.



ETA: Maybe I should clarify my earlier post....sorry about that, perhaps it sounds like I actually BELIEVE her BS.

Didn't hinkley shoot Reagan for jodi

Wouldn't surprise me if Jodi tries to get out of court with sickness today.

I'm hoping the jury doesn't believe it. There is ZERO evidence of Travis having a gun, but there is evidence that JA's grandparents owned a gun with the exact same caliber that just happened to be stolen. All the jury has to do is connect the dots and not get caught up in her lies. lease: A certain jury from Florida was unable to do this. The evidence was all there, the picture was clear, yet they got it so wrong.

NG...In the interrogation of JA by Det. Flores, he asks her if Travis had a gun in the house, she responds by saying 'not to my knowledge'.

JA says this at around 1:10, however, it's near the very beginning but you can watch gun discussion from the start 0:00.

Regarding the gun ... if McCartney was such a good friend of Arias and would never betray her, why didn't she seek his help in obtaining a non-traceable weapon, rather than stealing one from her grandparents ? This is even more puzzling to me as isn't he the one who supposedly forged the letters from TA to Arias ?

 

[Nosey Parker]

It wasn't a waste of time. He needs a lot of these details for his rebuttal case and for his closing. It might seem like a bunch of meaningless drivel now, but he will fashion an important puzzle from all of it. For example, the anal sex anecdotes from when she was with Bobby. That is vital info, because part of their 'abuse' accusations involve Travis forcing himself upon her anally when he angrily 'spins her around' and bends her over his desk. NOW we know that she has been having anal sex, willingly, since high school.

The same importance holds with the text where she ASKS for a 'facial.' She was claiming that Travis abused her by 'debasing' her. But today we learned that she was happily requesting those types of 'experiences.' And we also saw several clips from 48Hours where those same points were hit home. In one, she said ' the sex was always mutual' [paraphrased.]

I know that everyone is getting sick of this annoying defendant, but she cannot be cross examined in the usual way. You said for example, ask her about where she parked, and what happened to the plates....She is NEVER going to tell the truth about anything like that. She'll stick to her ridiculous story about the skaters in Pasadena who messed with her tags while she was at Starbucks getting her strawberry frappe. Asking her that is useless, imo. She lies like a rug.

The only things he can 'ask' her about are things he already has evidence of. He has to ask her about the things that he can REFUTE with texts and journals and e-mails. Otherwise it is just a waste of time. JMO

Can you imagine the rabbit hole she will take him down if he tries to get her to testify about her various hair color changes? But he is going about it a different, painstaking way. By showing the jury now, exactly how often she lies and how ridiculous she is, they are setting up their rebuttal of the next witness, the Abuse Expert.

Thank you!

I think it was her intent to kill him from the moment she left Yreka. The text messages that he sent her on 5/28 I think it was, showed that he had finally figured her out and was going to cut all contact with her. She obviously did something or said something to someone that she should not have said about him. IMO she totally crossed a line that TA was not going to forgive her for.

I also think that by what Travis wrote on his blog on may 18th, JA knew he was finished with her. He was talking about finding a wife, and it wasn't going to be Jodi.

http://travisalexander.blogspot.com/

And IMO the T shirt that Jodi had that said "Travis Alexander's" on the front , had "Being Better Blog" on the back. I think he had them made up to kind of advertise for his blog. She got the iron on letters and made the underware/shorts on her own for that JULY picture.

 

[dja230]

I am totally convinced when she left California she was going to make TA take her to Cancun and take her back in his life, he did not know she was coming and when she realized whatever she said or did TA was over her period, according to her, she was the one that moved on from other men, how dare him to tell her he wanted her out of his life, when this happened, oh well, she would show him, as much time and energy she put in this relationship and he did this to her, no going to happen. If not TA it would have been someone else that had told her to move on. She did not wash her hands with bottled water, as a lot of other lies. We all hope common sense comes into play with the jury but honestly there are many people that just can not put it all together, it is scary to know there is not logic or reasoning that goes on. JA is one scary person IMO.

I'm going from memory, so this is not verbatim. But OMG - the whole "You're the best" text.

JM: You said he's the best. Travis Alexander was the best, wasn't he?
She says "best at what"
JM: "I don't know you wrote it"
JA: "I don't understand your question".
JM: "you said he was the best didnt' you?"
JA: "it made him feel better".
JM: "So you lied to him"
JA: "no not necessarily"
JM: "Maam - did you write that Travis Alexander was the best?"
JA: "Yes, but only to make him feel better - he liked that".

And you wonder why I needed to take a Xanax yesterday.
