Retrial for Sentencing of Jodi Arias - Day 20

[geevee]

Juan- So the Mesa PD had to show you the drive worked correct?
Smith- Yes I verified it worked #Jodiarias #3tvarias

 

[MeeBee]

No, he wasn't the only one interested in justice for Travis. And the question I asked was what would the JSS bashers then have to say about her once Juan gets that verdict, would they then eat crow???

It's not about bashing her. But there's no reason she should be beyond criticism and no reason her decisions shouldn't be scrutinized. Judges don't always get it right. That's why there are appeals courts. She's a fine judge but she's a little bit in the weeds right now. There's nothing wrong with pointing that out.

Have to think that even after JM is finished thrashing Anonymous, the jury is still going to wondering what the heck all this computer business is about and why its relevant.

 

[Buttercup117]

Sorry moderators and others but I'm getting very frustrated with this judge. If she is not capable of making decisions concerning this trial. ( she is a judge after all ) and must rely on the Supreme Court to try her case for her why has she not been replaced ?

I'll think, "JSS did her best to keep relevant facts from the jury, but she couldn't suppress them all."

Juan- It's not as complete?
Smith- Yes #jodiarias #3tvarias

Juan- Doesn't your report contain everything you testified to today
Smith- Not everything #jodiarias #3tvarias

Whoa - does this mean Juan did not get a "complete" report? Unbelievable!

 

[Love Never Fails]

LinasK, I know about your cousin Mark and that it is his picture. And I am sorry about Mark. But z
I really did think you were a man. I wasn't attacking you just trying to figure out why you are such a strong defender of this particular judge.

Under fire from #JuanMartinez #JodiArias data scientist admits someone had 2 show him how computer worked-not sure if it was Mesa PD #abc15

Witness is very soft spoken #jodiarias

Smith says he was in the courtroom Monday and he worked with Mesa PD to make sure the computer worked, which it did. #jodiarias

Have you seen the comments here as to how she is "in bed" with Jodi and her defense team??? To me, that's beyond criticism of her decisions and the timing of the trial.

#JuanMartinez questions data scientist how #TravisAlexander computer was awakened at crime scene -- witness can't answer. #JodiArias #abc15

If that was reversed can you imagine the whining that would be coming from the DT? Another dozen or two motions would follow

From WAT:

Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial - 10 sec


Smith transferred his report from his laptop to Bryan Neumeister in October of 2014. #jodiarias



Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial - now


Juan asking when Smith was asked to testify.

For some reason Nurmi doesn't like this question & asks to approach. Sizzle. #jodiarias

BBM. Of course Nurmi doesn't like this. IMO he was never supposed to testify. Remember, Neurmeister (sp?) presented Pseudonym's testimony as his own research.

jen

smith- yes i was asked to interview for the case after the holidays
juan says jan , 2015 #jodiarias #3tvarias

boom!!

 

[bsk]

The amount of homework done by Juan to know all these little detail and be able to fire them off on a moment's notice is just amazing.

 

[elementary]

I'm guessing she's giving some time to the DT for some damage control in case whomever was thrown under the bus isn't aware of it yet?

MOO

I wish she gave the same courtesy to Travis' family.

Smith gives time stamp when it was awakened. Mountain Standard Time. Martinez wants to know if itt was Arizona time. "So you don't know!"

Have you seen the comments here as to how she is "in bed" with Jodi and her defense team??? To me, that's beyond criticism of her decisions and the timing of the trial.

I agree that those comments are beyond reasonable criticism. I am not a JSS "basher" but I have come to accept that she has lost her judicial mind on several issues and has little to no control over her courtroom.

Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial


Only 3 people here for #JodiArias, however, 2 rows of spectator seating full.


Well, we know at least 2 of the 3 : probably Mom and Donovan ?

 

[pinkandgreenmom]

Can someone refresh my memory? Was Travis' family allowed in the court room when JA testified in secret? I'm pretty sure JA's family wasn't allowed in but cannot remember all the details.
