long weekend break: discuss the latest here #101

[Prime Mover]

No shoes found at the scene, she took them. My biggest problem with her being covered with blood is the fact they found one bloody palm print....that's it, in the entire house, one lousy palm print. No bloody finger prints on doors or handles, and she's never been called out on it.

Good point. Perhaps Juan is saving that for his closing statement.

 

[gngr~snap]

Omigosh!!! I have been thinking that very thing for so long. I just didn't want to post it. And even, as we speak, I still think of the murder as "he" ... I don't know why I think that ... but I just have an overwhelming feeling ..

Even as I type this, I feel really freaked ... not sure why I feel this. But this does happen to me from time to time ... and ... well, it's a very strong feeling and quite often turns out to be .... krect! :what:

I have dreams/nightmares at night about this horrible crime. I hear (in my nightmare) Jodi approaching Travis in her "male" voice and scaring the shyte out of him. He is so ashamed and angry. He never knew. He almost seems to just deflate in fear and understand that his life is over.

I know this sounds weird ... but dreams are very weird. But I almost feel like there's a grain of truth in there. Okay ... now I've put it out there that I am certifiably insane. Please don't hate me ... it was just a nightmare. But I wonder if there is any possibility that she/he could be both sexes (hermaphrodite) I know this has been discussed before ... but ... call me crazy, I just brought it up again. :sick:

you are not alone on that one...

Can you imagine what a mess! Being a guy and finding that out
after you already "went" there!!!

 

[BetteDavisEyes]

Yet another oddity about Jodi. Who goes around giving different heights on their license?

It's no secret that JA lies easily

I don't remember how long it's been, but Michigan driver's licenses no longer have weight or hair color - just height and eye color. Folks were probably reluctant to reveal their weight, and, of course, plenty of folks change their hair color.

I can't imagine how Flores was able to be so patient with Arias - just watching made me want to slap her.

He's a professional, that's how; he does this for a living.

Are you keeping track of how many of us seem to have PTSD based on the test that you posted?

Your Score = 6

You are likely suffering from post traumatic stress; please contact us for more information

I had a 4 and none of my responses had anything to do with PTSD yet the answer was "You may have some post traumatic stress issues; please contact us for more information."

This test is completely bogus.

WOW!!! Thank you! That's got to be heard! :banghead:

Agree. I think this psychologist was paid to find and promote ONLY the two things that the DT believes will get her out of her mess.

Note, when asked, he said he found anxiety and a cluster of other issues. But the DT doesn't really want all this stuff uncovered or discussed. Probably because if he mentions borderline or sociopath, the jury will know for sure she is lying to their faces and deserves the DP.

The DT found a psychologist who would "rig" his tests, findings, and reports precisely how they wanted them. He's a well-paid team player who probably thought this 15-minutes would later help him make lots more money in the spotlight.

:clap::clap::clap::clap:

Funny (maybe?) OT story about licenses and heights. When I first got my license I was 17and I had a doctor's appointment or something a few days earlier where I had to fill out a form saying my height that form asked for it in inches so I put down 64 inches. I went to the DMV, filled out the form and it asked for height but didn't specify at this time inches or feet/inches so I assumed just inches was the going format for height. Again, put down 64 inches. The clerk woman entered all this info without concern and I got my licenses in the mail, no issue. I never inspected and a year later a friend asked to see my license picture and then looked at it and saw the lady entered 6'4" instead of 64 inches or converting it! According to my license I was an Amazon woman! My new one is correct now though.
I changed my eye color from blue to green though on my license new one, unintentionally. I didn't realize I put blue on the first one so when I renewed it I filled out the form and the clerk pointed out my eyes changed colors lol. I should just stay out of the DMV...

Hahaha!

i just saw katiecoolady on HLN she reports JA has lost so much weight. what do you make of it? i really think whatever the reason it's purposefully done, not at all because of stress. She wants sympathy from the public. I've thought too that she's holding out and hoping for an acquittal, and hopes to jump in that bikini when she gets out. :jail:

I just posted a bit ago about seeing Katie...That was not our katiecoolady but our OTHER Katie..Confusing huh? lol

 

[shelley921]

Her dress is not terrible; certainly she could be more polished.

My hubby said she's wearing her hair that way to look like JA, so the jurors will see JA as more normal and even professional. I laughed at him, but he's probably right. It's a DT tactic.

I think her hair awful. Why doesn't she put it UP or sweep it back off her face? The hair is not professional looking.

if true, it goes to motive. I wonder why PT hasn't gone there, if true?

I don't like accusing people until more comes out.

 

[bznbear]

I think this is backed up by her pure rage and pleasure to slash tires on two different vehicles. It can't be easy to slash that rubber. Her weapon of choice, the one that gives her the greatest feelings of power and release, is a knife, I believe.

Also, women typically choose more personal methods when they murder, and they usually kill someone with whom they have a relationship. They prefer knives, poison, over a gun.

Maybe this needs to go in the lawyers thread, but...

Is JW and her over the top sound effects and high pitched screeching when objecting and her style of questioning that seems to go nowhere--is this ON PURPOSE? I mean, is this effective? Her constant whining to "approach" when Juan is making a point--does that work for her in other cases??

I'm serious about my question--I just don't understand why she acts so differently than JM. She is overly emotional.

I would love to see transcripts of the sidebar conferences, particularly this week's. I have encountered many lawyers who will use such devices/tricks to signal to the witness that they need to think carefully about what they are about to say or to give the witness time to "recover." I think this is what JW was doing with Samuels. It might be effective in that respect, but it has to be irritating (if not infuriating) to the jurors and, thus, not effective in the long run. Jurors don't like objections; in my experience, they think the attorneys are trying to "hide" important information.

I had a 14 answering truthfully. Do you think I could find one of their pamphlets at the mall? That seems to be the right place. :floorlaugh:

I thought we knew that already. I could swear that JA said when she was on the stand, that she was originally going. :waitasec:

 

[Kensie]

Maybe JA has lost weight because someone told her that she looks fat on tv.

SHe has gotten very thin. I think If I was on any type of trial, I would not be able to eat and would lose weight.

Yep, that's katieDDJ and I'm katiecoolady but her name really is katie and mine is Kathy. Now have I cleared things up? :floorlaugh:

If I was THAT Katie, I"d be the one who "lost a lot of weight". lol She's great though, love watching her.
