Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias - 12/09-11

[Nali87]

Well, it seems like it's only an issue with BN's copies. But the expert is saying they aren't proper because there are things there that shouldn't be. And possibly making alterations to his copy so it looks like it was on any clones he made. But there's no way to check because he won't give it over. And they damaged the hard drive while getting their copies made so now the expert can't even view it against the original copy made in 2008. That's why it's relevant. He doesn't have much to work with and he's explaining why.

OHHH and since the hard drive is damaged, the only way he can analyze their claim that stuff were deleted in 2009 by Juan or Flores is by checking the clones/images that BN has. But he can't do that because BN didn't follow protocol. So Juan's expert can't research the defense team's claim that Juan and Flores deleted stuff, messed with Quicktime etc in 2009. Those actions aren't on the image made in 2008!! He needs the original to check on these things that JW says amount to "misconduct".


GOT IT! Thanks MeeBee.

They still don't. CDMA networks, which VZW runs on, don't use SIM cards. That's not a good thing, btw, it just is what it is. GSM networks, like what AT&T run on, do use SIM cards.

I've had Verizon since 1999 and never needed one. Not a problem for me and testimony was perfect for this trial. IMO

Willmott presses Smith on whether it's ok to wake up a computer from sleep mode at a crime scene. He says it is under some circumstances.

Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 2m2 minutes ago
Willmott asks how many times have you done that?
Perry- once
Willmott- Without a write blocker?
Perry- Yes #jodiarias #3tvarias

Michael Kiefer ‏@michaelbkiefer · 57s57 seconds ago
Smith admits that the best course of action is to take the battery out and cord off the computer.

Perry says you can wake a computer out of sleep and it could be added to the guidelines. #jodiarias #3tvarias

 

[daisydomino]

How many times have policies changed is the last 6 years??

Right! And who writes the policy to begin with? Probably guys like Det. Smith.

Willmott gets Mesa PD computer guy Smith to admit that waking the computer changes files and deletes cache files, among other things.

Will defense get a rebuttal, and will they put Neu. back on the stand? lol

They will probably want to but he will be too busy so they will ask for a delay until he gets his act together.

Seriously, DT should just move on ... this issue is Dead in the Water, imo.

That's what I'm getting but don't trust me lol.

Or blame those that have the law on their side.

Perry- Waking up a computer isn't the best course of action. Contacting forensics is #jodiarias #3tvarias

Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 29s30 seconds ago
Willmott- If TA computer was woke up out of sleep mode it was modified correct?
Perry- Yes #jodiarias #3tvarias

Ok, gang, the defense and BN had 3, count 'em, at least 3 chances to turn over the original mirror image they supposedly made.

If I were JSS, I'd say, at the end of the day, that the DT had not made their case and refuse the defense one more chance to turn over the real deal, if they even have it.

IIRC, Neumeister testified that there was no incinerator on the drive???

I don't understand a whole lot, but I do get that the defense is really trying hard to get one over on the judge.

Also, I wonder if Wilmott is off somewhere in the courthouse chit-chatting with BN asking, "What the He** do I ask now?"

She would have already known what he was going to say because the DT requested time to interview him at the status conference.

If he didn't violate policy it wasn't even negligence, much less malicious.

 

[Nali87]

I don't think the computer should have been turned on. But it was an honest mistake. It wasn't misconduct.

 

[Dmacky]

Isn't this right around the time the convict filed another motion to get rid of Nurmi again? :thinking:

EXACTLY THE SAME DAY!

Even if waking up the computer isn't really the best course, it's technically not in the protocol and the expert has even done it himself. So Flores didn't not follow protocol.

Michael Kiefer ‏@michaelbkiefer · 3m3 minutes ago
Willmott then gets Smith to say it's a violation of policy to turn on the computer and presses him as to letting "civilians" do it. He balks

Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 2m2 minutes ago
Willmott- If someone from Mesa PD turned on computer does that violate policy?
Perry-Yes but it doesn't include defense turning it on

Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 1m1 minute ago
Willmott- Without a write blocker and the computer is turned on it is modified correct?
Perry- Yes #jodiarias #3tvarias

Michael Kiefer ‏@michaelbkiefer · 53s53 seconds ago
Willmott gets to the copies. "They're not the actual evidence are they?" Smith: "No, they're not."

 

[wenwe4]

What happens when there are no tweets? I think my F5 button is coming loose!

Willmott going over the copies of the HD now.

Smith has the exact image from 2008 back at Mesa PD. #JodiArias

 

[Hope4More]

Was it turned on or woken up? Isn't that difference significant in terms of what's being charged?
