SIDEBAR #37 - Arias/Alexander forum

Not open for further replies.
My older son is going to send me a "reader" thingy (he didn't tell me what kind) and asked me for 30 books that I would like to read to "load" in it. I have been resistant to these machines, for years of him asking me if I wanted one, but I surrender now. :facepalm:

I asked him to load these that you may also like to read:

The Stranger Beside Me (Ann Rule)
The Death of Punishment: Searching for Justice Among the Worst of the Worst (Robert Blecker)
September Sacrifice (Mark Homer)
Boy in the Box The Unsolved Case of America's Unknown Child (David Stout)

(these are all Kindle and on Amazon)


If you haven't read Dead By Sunset and/or Every Breath You Take by Ann Rule check them out and see if you'd like them. Both are about psychopathic men that are beyond belief.

Dead By Sunset makes me so mad every time I read it. I hate this man, I would not of put up with much, and I'd probably of killed him the first time he beat me. This has been made into a movie, probably on Lifetime.


Do you remember the mother of quads that was murdered in Sarasota? Shelia Bellush and her family fled Texas to hide in Florida from her ex husband, and he manipulated his ten year old daughter into telling him where to find her. She was shot in the head and her throat slit in front of the four babies. She wasn't found until the afternoon.
 
Good morning :seeya:

Woke up to rain and 40 degrees- much better than yesterday (and I have the internet back :) )

I don't think we can see that civil case- at least, I don't know where to find the civil lawsuit (and believe me when I say I have looked high and low for it). :facepalm:

YoN ~ If YOU can't find it, it must not be available for ANYONE to see. You are incredible at finding everything. I :bow: to you

BBM I just Googled that book and found out that Brad Cunningham wrote his own ditty:

Ann Rule Deconstructed: Perfect Writer, Perfect Liar [NOOK Book]

"Overview
Ann Rule in 1995 published Dead by Sunset. She claimed it was a true story that described my life, and relationships. Literally nothing in DBS was true. When there was a shred of truth, she then exaggerated it to an incredulous level. For years I struggled with how to deal with this. My poverty precluded any meaningful litigation. Besides, I was a convicted murderer and any jury instruction would have limited any recovery to nominal damages.

Ann Rule permanently harmed my family, especially my children, with Dead by Sunset. The injury she inflicted upon them was irreparable and harsh..."

-has 3 reviews and all 1 star

"A desperate and hopeless bid to clear his reputation. This book does him no favours but reminds one of this sexually obsessive man's failure to behave like a normal human being..."

"If you like 🤬🤬🤬🤬, then you may like this book. I found it disgusting."

I tries to do more research on him- found this appeal (looks like verdict was "Reversed and remanded"- what does that exactly mean?) Can't find much about him and the trial- how come?

Thanks for all the reading recommendations, ladies!! :seeya:
I will have to take a trip to half price books and see what I can find. I just finished reading the Outlander series book 7, and Gone Girl. I am definitely up for something different that I wouldn't pick up on my own. I sit in front of a computer all day at work, so I haven't yet taken the leap to a reader/ gone to the dark side. j/k ;) My mom got one of the readers from B&N a couple of years ago and loves it! Hope you enjoy your reader.
 
Scary that Cunningham was up for parole 2014
 
YoN ~ If YOU can't find it, it must not be available for ANYONE to see. You are incredible at finding everything. I :bow: to you

Seriously!

And thanks, YESorNO, for this; will have to print it for my Boston-born hubby. You never met ANYONE so delighted to be living in the Sunshine State, as opposed to the frozen tundra from whence he sprung. :)

It is strange that there was a gun hidden in the rental car (esp since it was registered to JA). Does anyone have opinions on what might have prompted her mother less than a month later to inquire about the gun. It did not bode well for JA to have these weapons (2 knives & gun) in the rental car. The gun might never have been found or if found kept by the person who found it. (JMO)

Did anyone watch Who the (Bleep) Did I Marry? on the Investigative Discovery channel last night? I was so hoping someone did. Even though only 30 minutes it was quite interesting from mainly Ryan Burns point of view. Chancy Talbot was also on and another co-worker of Travis' I did not recognize by name. One point out of many (I won't go into too long) is that they portrayed JA's (person playing the role) right hand (top of) having 2 small band aids. How could there be injuries on top of a hand? Was she rt or lt handed or both but which was dominant? But even so cuts may not have been that bad (?) but just enough to have caused her blood to mix with Travis' in that bloody palm print she seemed shocked they found. (I think she indicated when she woke up from her fog she had blood on herself IIRC). Was glad to see that Ryan moved on... he and wife are expecting their 3rd child. (that is how much time has passed!!!). (JMO)

I loved the "Dr Goofee" "Just for Men for man who Just spill water". LOL

Thank you YesorNo for all your contributions. You must have been an awesome Mother.

So- with a little research, this is what I came up with: :facepalm:
----------------

"1:38 p.m. ET: Martinez asked Arias if she is left or right handed, and what hand she used to stab Alexander.

Martinez: You're ambidextrous, is that what you're saying?

#JodiArias: Yes, depending on the activity

— In Session (@InSession) February 25, 2013

http://www.hlntv.com/article/2013/02/25/jodi-arias-testifies-day-10-live-blog
-----------------------

So, it seems that she can use any hand, but mainly, from what I have seen from the trial last year on TV, she uses her left hand more.
------------

Maybe a little bit more than you have wanted (but what the heck :floorlaugh:)

Some :blah::blah::blah: to ponder:

Ambidextrous kids more prone to mental issues

"..Ease with both hands also tied to language, academic problems, study says.."

http://www.nbcnews.com/id/35062930/...s-kids-more-prone-mental-issues/#.VKmrayvF9Hw
---------------

"...individuals who do not develop a typically strong behavorial laterality differ significantly and are a somewhat higher risk of certain disorders and brain abnormalities from consistently from left- and right-handed individuals..."

http://www.academia.edu/4392954/Ambidextrous_laterality_dyspraxia_and_spatial_learning_disability
-------------------

11 Facts About the Ambidextrous

"...9. Ambis can be quick to anger, according to a study from Merrimack College, which suggests a higher interlinking of brain hemispheres found in ambidextrous and lefties. A follow-up study found that the increased hemisphere connections correlate to increased awkwardness, clumsiness and moodiness..."

http://mentalfloss.com/article/30667/11-facts-about-ambidextrous
-----------------

"...Today, learned ambidexterity is known as Penwald's ambidexterity. Although the fear of left-handers has died down somewhat, there are other reason why people may learn to use both hands. The most common is because of an injury to the dominant hand or arm..."

http://www.thepencentral.com/view/articles/what-is-ambidexterity-633
--------------------

ambidextrous-escher-quills-2.jpg


"...People that are born ambidextrous are extremely rare. Some people may be able to teach themselves to be ambidextrous, by practicing equally with both hands. People that are made ambidextrous are called Penwald ambidextrous; they can also stop being both-handed..."

http://rightbrainedlefthanded.blogspot.com/2009/08/ambidextrous.html
-----------------

So to make a long story short :angel: :tomato:

IMO, since, according to studies, being ambidextrous is extremely rare, I think that missy:jail: is left-handed and has taught herself to use both hands (if that is at all true about being ambidextrous, as I don't believe a word out of her mouth). Maybe she felt out of place as a lefty in a right-handed world/school and needed to copy others (she is a chameleon, imo), but let's not speculate, because I don't want to jump into her mind right now.:hills:

I just need for this trial to be over, but not before I see JM step in and fix all the craziness of this trial with the truth.

:juanettes::juanettes:
------------------

As for being a 'awsome mother"- you'd have to ask my 2 sons about that. :facepalm:

(I can be harsh- I expect a lot from my children- for their own good- after all, I always told them that "this is not a democracy, but a dictatorship, and I am the dictator" :great:)
--------------

Oh, and one more thing :sheesh:

I'm only a "fact-finder" (because I enjoy doing that) and because of that, I post what I find for everyone to read if they want to.
IMO :sheesh:, everyone contributes to this thread in their own way and they are very important to keeping the Sidebar alive (even if it's just to say "hello"). So, please, no thanks for me unless there is thanks for everyone. (but I do appreciate the thanks )

Oh and you "invisible" people- why don't you join us and post something (in this way, daisymae (where is that girl?), who is our Walmart Sidebar greeter, can continue to do her job :facepalm:)

:tomato::tomato:


carry-on-smiley.gif
 
Yes, daisymae...... come on out and play. We miss you.

I am left handed, and a kindergarten sub tried to force me to use my right hand. Ha! No way, Jose!

I believe only about 1% of what missy says to be true. And that's possibly an exaggeration.
 
This just dropped in my inbox from Christine :) :

Jodi Arias files new porngate motion, nobody gasps: Did Jodi implicate herself?

"...Jodi Arias has proven time and again that speedy trials, or quiet holiday breaks aren't the only areas where she veers far off the normal range. The Jodi Arias supporters have been loudly banging their pots over the holiday break, and the defense team has been busy preparing a motion as well. CBS 5 for Arizona reported on January 3 that the defense team of Jodi Arias has filed yet another motion on New Year’s Eve asking prosecutors to once again turn over more evidence related to the computer of Travis Alexander. The Porngate saga continues, a term coined by Kelly from Really Big Mean Dog School of Law who has been reporting almost daily on the Jodi Arias trial..."

""Has anyone realized TA's pc 🤬🤬🤬🤬 and viruses and States misconduct and tampering wouldn't have been discovered had #jodiarias not been pro per?" - From article linked by YesorNo

This is a great read as it stresses everything that websleuthers have been suggesting about Arias pro per access and tricks. Also, as we know, Arias has stated many times that she used Travis' laptop. She is so predictable.she planted the 🤬🤬🤬🤬, if there is any, or some of it. I'd bet on that.
 
So, it seems that it is only fitting, that this individual that has craved the limelight, it is really only fitting that she now bask in a different kind of light: the light of truth. And in the light of truth, you can see who she really is.”--Juan Martinez

I wonder what tomorrow will bring???
Maybe Dr. G will finally be quiet and then JM will be able to cross?? I hope so.

Bernina I hope your fingers will be ready to post all the tweets. :blowkiss:

Been adding my 2 cents to the dialogue over on the Decepti-con blog. And I am being VERY gracious, civil, and no potty mouth like some of the posters.
out-of-place-smiley.gif


I am more interested in "WHY" Mr. Rob thinks the way he does than his comparison of CMJA and other cases and the general "rumor mill" type junk.

Yes, I like to pick people's brains on occasion.
peppi-okay-smiley.gif


And another OMG for the newest motion from filed by the defense, THANKS, YorN! Do you think the defense has little Keebler type elves who do nothing all day but write ridiculous motions?
nooo-way-smiley.gif


Tomorrow brings another crazy day of Court by Tweet.....
quasimodo-smiley.gif
are you kids ready? Honestly, it's NOT something to look forward to. Betcha the trial goes through April.......
 
I don't know how this motion to compel is going to help her. They are already backed in a corner because of their BS. All's I see is them getting buried under a ton of :bricks:

I have to go look at your new? postings (cause you know how nosy I am) :)

And yes, Nurmi/Wilmott do have "elves" who do all the grunt work with the motions/looking up case histories, and stuff.

ETA: very good Bernina

I don't like how he keeps bringing in other criminals, also and your questions are good. Wonder how he will reply.

As to her being/not being narcissistic- well if she isn't, then no one is, IMO.

How does he know this:

"She’s actually a very shy person, so the boldness of going before the cameras is a mystery."

Did he meet her? speak to her? where does he get his info? the same way we do? In that case he's talking out of his ---, IMO.
