Jodi Arias--Defence CIC day 7
Part 4
--re: text messages, did not have any conversations through instant message and doesn't think they had any phone conversations.
--Nurmi again tries to admit Exhibit 444, it is now admitted.
--Nurmi asking about the text message she woke up to. Jodi never told TA that she was moving out of Mesa to get away from him. Says she never told him that but says she wanted a healthy relationship with him.
--TA texted her saying to not call me, do not text me or anything, there was a reference to Michelle K, JA says that person was Maria and TA was mad that somebody had outed
Travis texts: "after tomorrow it's going to be really bad for you, time to spit it out". JA says that Travis wanted to know who Marie was.
--Marie came into Jodi's work at Ruby Tuesdays and she brought her some food. TA wanted Jodi to spit out "who was Marie".
--re: it's going to get really bad for you". JA says she wasn't sure what TA was capable of. Martinez objects...speculation.
--Nurmi asks if TA had threatened her. JA says he hadn't and she didn't know what TA was talking about.
--Exhibit 445, text message conversation from April 18, 2008, JA is asked to read it over to herself.
--The context of the conversation, says that TA had found a drawing that was left behind from when she was leaving and it made TA very mad.
--JA is asked about the effect the conversation had on her. Nurmi asks JA if it made her shake. JA says that she just wanted TA to calm down.
Nurmi asks for Exhibit 445 to be admitted into evidence. Martinez doesn't have an objection to a majority of the texts if the foundation that they talked about is there. Nurmi says that they should have the conversation at the bench. Lawyers approach.
