Again, I think a great strategy on cross would be to show this email to Dr. F and have her agonizingly read through it line by line and mind-read about JA's intentions and how this email shows JA's appeasement of Travis's unreasonable behavior, etc. etc.:
"Hey You
I havent heard back from you. I hope youre not still upset that I didnt come to see you, I just didnt have enough time off. Its ok, sweetie, youre going to be here in less than two weeks were going to see the sights, check things off The List, and all kinds of fun things. Oregon is BEAUTIFUL this time of the year. Yaaay!..... be happy!
Anyway I wanted to let you know that Im thinking about pushing my visit up to next week, but it depends on my budget, so Im not for sure yet. I know youll be in Cancun, but Ill probably crash at your house in your cozy bed anyway
eat some of your oatmeal and frozen dinners you know, the usual jk I know you said the door is always open, but I wanted to give you a heads up. If for any reason that wont work, let me know and Ill make arrangements. Your house has always been my second home, although its a bit more lonely without Naps around. Youre probably in California right now, but wherever you are, get a hold of me, at least before you get to Mexico.
Thanks hon, -Jodi "

and then spring it on her that it was written after Jodi had KILLED Travis and therefore maybe, just maybe, this practice of email analysis with no context is risky business.
I'd be willing to bet the defense hasn't shown the email to Dr. F--it isn't relevant to their theme. And if they have, JM could still make a big deal out of the fact that Dr. F wants to consider the context for THIS email but doesn't seem to care about that for any other email.
