Jodi Arias TAKES THE STAND FOR 7TH DAY #42 *may contain graphic and adult content*

[shantastic]

She's a master stealth stalker.....

A master stealth NINJA stalker...

 

[TartLemon]

Ok, who in the hello cuts rope with a knife. You are in a house, not camping, why not scissors?

Why cut the rope at all?

 

[grammieto5]

A lot of things she does not remember THAT day?????

 

[Sustained]

Another little tidbit - JA says she put the sheets in the washer after sex as they ALWAYS did ... then when did the camera get into the washer ?

Certainly that is another lie as she most likely dragged him on a sheet and had to wash them to get the blood out.

 

[Zeno49]

Didnt the state say there was no knives missing from the kitchen of TA's house?

I am also confused about the knife.
JA said TA took the knife from the knife block to use to cut the rope. The knife was conveniently left in the bathroom.
I guess the knife was available to use during the TA attack.

Then - I guess - after the homicide the knife is cleaned up and then properly placed back into the knife block????

Even with everything I've been through over these last two decades with the DP appellate process, I am 100% behind this murderer receiving the DP for one reason and that's all I need: it's what this family wants.

Also with LWOP she will be in general population vs. isolation in her cell 23 hours per day.

I agree. Even though there are lots of reasons I'd like to see her with LWOP, in the end, if it's what the family wants, I just have to go with that.

Good point! Also, he very well could have attacked her after that first stab wound. I am sure he tried to get the knife from her. JA is claiming that TA attacked her and said he was going to kill her, conveniently omitting the fact that he did this after she first stabbed him in the chest. They say there is a bit of truth in all lies! :what:

If TA attacked her she would have had visible signs of a struggle. Ryan only saw what was on her left hand with the bandages. Either the shot to the head or the stab to the chest would have put Travis in shock and not responsible because the body goes into protection mode. Had Travis had a weapon she never would have gotten the better of him. The picture of him sitting in the shower with the water running shows someone who is totally without any form of defense. The next picture you see him still sitting but the door of the shower is now open which means water was getting on the floor in front of the shower. He's wet, getting out on a wet slippery tile floor in his bare feet what type of an attack do we think he'd be capable of???? Jodi must have had rubber soled shoes on because they found an impression of her shoe on the bathroom floor. jmo

I am not sure that this is what happened. Just saying that it could happen if he was measuring. The thing is I buy nothing of her story that is of merit to her case but this and him measuring strikes me as true. I don't care if the knife was there or not, She did not need to use it.

I had to turn the sound all the way down. I can not stand listening to her anymore. I can not wait til the prosecutor gets his turn.. She will definitely not be as pleased with her self as she is now... :floorlaugh:

i agree :floorlaugh: during her testimony after day 2 she lost me. I cleaned up my house and just listened when I was absolutely bored. My house was terrible when Juan was presenting the states case. At this point I'm just listening for the June 4th part of her lies. she had to get that knife somewhere into the bathroom, here comes the measurement excuse. Isn't it crazy how she expects everyone to be lying and all of her planning before the trip, the murder, and after are just pure coincidence?

 

[laniefi]

my husband is the same. It's like in his world scissors don't even exist.

You ladies have some MANLY men!!!

:winko:

 

[raininginoregon]

She has a moment here 55:16 when Nurmi says '....did that then relieve you to some degree thinking that .. this was over?' she looks up and goes 'WHAT was over?' I think she has an issue even today about anyone knowing that Travis told her it was OVER.

Mrs G, that was my thought exactly. When she shot that look at Nurmi and said, 'WHAT was over?', I felt a cold chill. It was like, how dare you imply he didn't want me! To this day, she is so deluded that she can't bear the idea that he had enough and wanted to be free of her.

 

[Dmacky]

Another question is...the fact it is quite cramped in that shower, its only standing room, I cant see how anyone would willingly sit in an awkward postion just to get a photo taken. Why not stand up, it had the same effect of looking through the shower screen.

THe pictures do not look posed, they look self concious and really awkward. This IMO was JA's idea.

For all we know Jodi pulled her gun out and demanded he sit like that.

 

[nursebeeme]

Why cut the rope at all?

and where is THE rope

and where is the REST of the rope that wasn't used?

man... the chit is deep :liar:

 

[Madeleine74]

"Do you swear to tell lies and nothing but lies..." It's bizarre. Almost nothing she has said on the stand has been true. Can she get some kind of punishment for this?

She sure can: Cross-examination by Mr. Juan Pitbull Martinez for hours and a parting gift of a death penalty sentence by the jury.

 

[SusieD]

I think you would see more blood in that pic if that had been the case ...

Not necessarily, especially the way he was slumped. I've been around some trauma and some stab wounds bleed very little.

maybe he saw the gun/knife, held his hands to his head and slumped down in the ultimate "oh no" way.

I don't think he sat down at will. He slid down the back of that shower. Who does that?

Lamb chop I could see Jodi wearing water shoes or something like that. You know she's always prepared. Would it be too far of a yoga stretch to think that she had a cancun bag packed?

 

[Tracey4AU]

Hey yall! :seeya:

The boss is away today! Yay! :great:

Will we get to cross before the 11th of Never?!!! Let's get ON with this! All I want to hear is "GUILTY" and "SENTENCED TO DEATH". Well, with alot of JM wrapping it all up first, of course!

:jail:

 

[missy1974]

do you all think that she will try to say the cuts on her hand were defense wounds?? That Travis came at her with the knife first but she turned into superwoman and got it away from him, or some other superhuman story.

 

[Zeno49]

Remember her story is she shot him first so she's going to tale this tale of her struggling on the ground, reaching out and then she just finds a gun and shoots. But then the evidence of the gun shot wound wont fit her story. Remember the angle of the shot.

Be prepared for an Alice in Wonderland story and then we will all go down a "rabbit hole" when JA begins the TA attack and the use of the gun.

 

[Softail]

Why cut the rope at all?

So she has an excuse for having a knife!? :dunno:

 

[Anita Richman]

You ladies have some MANLY men!!!

:winko:

I know, right?! He wouldn't want my girlieness to rub off by using a tool as feminine as scissors!:what:
