Movies Jodi has probably watched...right down to prostitute named "Iris" (a name Jodi said Travis liked, wanted to name baby girl that) and main character was Travis. Hinckley (a name Jodi said Travis liked) was obsessed and stalking Jodi Foster and shot President Reagan (a name Jodi said Travis liked for kids)

I think Jodi also watched.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslight_(1944_film)
Jodi loves to "gaslight" people.
JMO.

the Usual Suspects. Maybe her testimony is like Kevin Spacey's statement to the cops about Kaiser Sorze. Where he is in the room with the cop and he pulls names and stories from photos on the wall and even the name on the bottom of the cup he is drinking from. Perhaps she thinks she is being clever and when all realize it is total fabrication she will have walked free just like Kevin Spacey.

I keep seeing an evidence picture that is a cardboard box (printer paper I think) that seems to have a reddish stain along the bottom like it was in a flood or something. I wondered where that box was found (I think it was on tile) and whether it was from some floor cleanup she did afterward. There are also pictures of the laundry closet so I'm wondering if LE found bloody mops in there. Do we know? (forgive me if this has been "asked and answered").

the box with the blood/water stain was found in the linen closet in Travis' bathroom, upstairs.

Ok, how about this....any way to watch the talking heads shows from last night online. Sort of like I do for other shows, like the Bachelor that air the next day online?

Who is it that JM keeps referring to that Jodi is telling a different story to? (The story that she found TA in his masterbatorial activities looking at his computer and the story about her and Matt or Bobby and her being broken up when he was seeing Bianca)

 

[sysmanager1963]

Someone mentioned that you could change the thread so that you can view 200 on a page at a time to try and keep up with the activity. How do you do that?

 

[SunDawnn]

Although this answer would call for speculation (but it would at LEAST plant the seed in the jurors head) but....... I'm surprised JM didn't ask WHY TA hid the gun, so out of reach, opposed to his bedside table, if there were no children in the house (and ESPECIALLY if it was 'unloaded' as she keeps floundering back and forth on)

Why so obtuse and inconvenient? I mean, it didn't serve him any good when 120lb Jodi attacked him so why bother owning 'protection' (end sarcasm)?

Furthermore, if it was 'out of the holster' then that implies it was for quick use aka; protection, not sport.
So again, if someone is sleeping and intruders break in, WTF good is owning a deadly weapon if it's not handy?

Complete nonsense.

Again, I wish JM could've worked that in somehow because we ALL know there was no gun in the closet at Travis'. The gun was taken in Jodis' staged burglary in Yreka.

Whatever happened to the gun she supposedly purchased in July 2008?

Dont know about that, especially with tv, but you should be able to pull up at least the transcripts online. I think.

 

[nightwatch]

I will probably not listen to the paid so called greedy experts. It makes me literally sick to listen colleagues (if I can really call them colleagues) sell themselves out for the mighty dollar to make fools of themselves.

I testified once in a divorce case. However, I would not evaluate the client because I knew they would lie. I testified the general symptoms and characteristics and affects on the family of Alcoholism. That is it.

are these experts allowed to watch the trial?

 

[carnnell]

There is no way they can make her out to be a DV victim..but they will try which will require more dragging TA through the mud. :banghead:

That is why I can't watch them. They are not "highly refined educated professionals" they paid greedy ambulance chasers (that is the polite way to say it).

I am a HUGH advocate for court appointed expert rather defense/prosecutor experts. At least, there might be some objectivity. May not be absolutely perfect but at least can be some resemblance of professionalism rather than paid ambulance chaser. JMHO

I wish I could my 7 year old down for a nap when I am watching the trial:great:

Nurmi's new tactic in court is to act as though he's really outraged when he makes an objection. Like "Objection! Calls for speculaaaation. Argumentative?!!??!?!"

Please Nurmi. You have no defense. You have no case. You're also a poor actor.

I missed the end of yesterday's proceedings... does court start earlier today? What time does it start central standard time?

 

[rob]

I just heard on HLN that today an expert is expected who specializes in "sexual dysfunction" ????? unfortunately no name was provided...
hum, scratching my head

Sounds like Dr Drew.

Is that a trick question? Do you mean really start? :floorlaugh:

 

[sysmanager1963]

I hate to admit this but I have been trying to go onto the jodiariasisinnocent site to see what out of this world theories they are proclaiming and I haven't been able to get in. Does anyone else look at these (I know someone does-don't lie) and are you having trouble too?

 

[kayice]

Why would Travis Alexander tell someone who had slashed all his tires TWICE, a GF's tires, sent nasty emails, probably blackmailing him with recorded sex phone calls, a person he called a stalker and sociopath...one who hid in that very closet in stalker mode..that he had HIDDEN a gun in said closet? Would you? Does not compute.
He had no gun, holster or bullets.

 

[GoodGurl]

I suppose this is basic legal tactics, but I don't understand why she told such poorly thought out stories? Doesn't her DT go over these stories with her and are allowed to say, now that just won't work, you can't get all that done in 62 seconds (or you can't fly to the top of a closet...) etc? Or is the DT not allowed to do that?
