#jodiarias tells Det. Flores her and Travis dated for 5 1/2 months . #3tvarias

It seems like so much longer. In reality it wasn't even a long term relationship at all, just a casual one. They weren't exclusive at all. Yet she acts like it was something so sacred to her. He just wasn't that into her after a while and she just didn't get the hint.

@ericksonvision: Listening to this call, #JodiArias just keeps talking and talking and talking. It's like you can hear her picking up her own shovel.

@monicalindstrom: General Question: Should death penalty be given based on # of killed, age of killed, how killed or lack of remorse? Thoughts?

YAY!!!!! Context!!!! A "relationship" of a handful of months, long distance. VERY de-edifying.

Touchdown--team Martinez!:happydance::juanettes:

Yah, like when she destroyed his BWM and he told her not to worry about it, babe.

@TrialDiariesJ: #jodiarias is describing Travis's bedding to Detective Flores....she says she spent a lot of time in there #3tvarias

Keep in mind that by the time she made this phone call, Jodi was already suspect #1.

#jodiarias tells Detective Flores Travis had his tires slashed and he never locked his doors #3tvarias
Yeah, stabby would know that for sure. I bet she used the same knife on Travis that she used on his tires. :gaah:

I cant speak for this jury of course but every time the defense attorney started rapid objections during a trial I was on, I felt they were trying to keep something very important from us.

And in all five trials I have been on never ever were there this many objections including one that was a DP case.

Judges in my area don't put up with constant objections. And in chamber meetings are as scarce as hen's teeth.

The money wasted in this case has been due to all the in chamber meetings granted, constant sidebars granted, and objections in the hundreds or maybe thousands by now constantly disrupting the testimony of witnesses. To say it has been surreal doesn't even begin to cover it. Its the strangest case I have ever seen and the Judge is also the strangest one I have ever seen preside over a DP case.

If I was a juror on this case trying to listen closely to the evidence only to have it interrupted every second, I would be at the stage of smoke coming out my ears, I would be so aggravated. I would want to standup and scream to the DT "FGS! Let the damn Prosecutor ask his questions and quit interrupting all the time!' :mad:

A judge can't really say,"stop objecting"--due process of law and all that. However, I have seen judges say (while the jury is out), "Don't you see that the jury thinks you're hiding something? My advice is to keep the objections to a minimum," or, "Look, here's what hearsay means: [explains rule]. Please don't object again unless it fits within that definition."

@TrialDiariesJ: #jodiarias states Travis's home is always open to anyone and he doesn't mind when people just show up #3tvarias

Unless they have murder on their minds, or hiding behind his Christmas tree at a party uninvited, or slashing tires

Yep.

Jodi just knew how to push his buttons. No doubt that's the reason messages for other men kept accidentally ending up in Travis' inbox. It made him angry...and she loved it.

First of all, there are plenty of times when the highest court available has ruled in a way that is IMHO ridiculous. ;) But this is a complex issue involving hearsay, the sort-of-kind-of suspension of hearsay for the mitigation phase, the 6th Amendment, etc. In the first trial I noticed that JM follows a very sensible strategy of giving in on minor issues if he thinks he can still convey the information to the jury another way. In other words, he minimizes appeal issues by "keeping his eye on the ball." He knows he can read a transcript just as well as he can play a video, and maybe better, because he can add just the right emphasis. ;) So if he thinks Nurmi has some good case law, he's not going to fight too hard and lead the judge into a reversal on appeal.

BBM. How can there be a hearsay issue now when DB's statements were originally offered in court?

Flores keeps asking her if there was anything in the house that was like a small tannish or brown rope etc. #jodiarias

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to just let this new jury watch video from the original trial, rather than have the lawyers re-hash all of it ? They could review the testimony, listen to whatever is considered relevant, and not have to be subjected to Nurmi trying to hijack the entire process every 2 minutes.

What would be wrong with the new jury just reviewing things by video of the first trial ? Isn't that what most of this is about, getting them acquainted and up to speed on the original trial ?
