The State v. Jodi Arias: break in trial until 28 January 2013 #15 *ADULT CONTENT*

[nursebeeme]

I've apologized several times for including "posters" in my comment.

I also have stated several times that NOTHING TA did warranted his horrible death period!

I only started this whole discussion when CH emails were mentioned that CH wrote an email to TA stating he felt TA was treating JA badly. And I wrongly commented that "most of us" would agree that TA maybe didn't treat JA all that great. MY BAD!!!

All I meant to say is.... someone can UNINTENTIONALLY harm someone emotionally and someone can FEEL emotionally harmed. This is just a fact.

Caps for tonal emphisis not anger/yelling etc.

thank you for your clarification johunt. We are glad you are here with us!

I hope Gus will release a statement or hold a press conference letting us know what happened behind closed doors and also let us know how he's feeling and what he's going to eat for dinner. And also a whole bunch of other irrelevant stupid crap nobody cares about.

Are you kidding? Gus will write a BOOK over his grand presence at this trial!!!

Pleeease tel me who Darryl Brewer is? Is this the guy she lived with for four years?
Pleeease tell me if the headless boyfriend was a different person?

Hope videos of today are posted soon.

Yes darryl Brewer is her ex boyfriend who she lived with in Palm Desert. The one with the son. And they protected his identity in court today which was a good thing for him. Same guy. He actually became a witness for the Prosecution on cross. :seeya:

Unfortunately, the jury may not ever know.

Why would that be unfortunate?

 

[oceanblueeyes]

So what did Gus want to plead the 5th about?

I just couldnt stomach listening to 'all about me' Gus anymore.

Did he want to pled the 5th?

Wow

 

[m00c0w]

Why would that be unfortunate?

Because if he goes so far as to attempt to intimidate defense witnesses, I think it's relevant to the potential credibility of his testimony.

This thread = 99 pages in 7 hours ... Let this be a lesson to anyone who missed today, you should cancel all real life plans to watch and post during trial!

The defence had Gus on the stand again about the phone conversation he had with Chris Hughes, when CH called him to ask about him (Gus) being on the witness list (the same conversation they were talking about in the hearing yesterday).

Nurmi then asked Gus if someone was in the car with him at the time of the call, Gus said yes, and Nurmi asked if the person was hesitant to come forward. Then Gus said yes they were, because (iirc) they were 'worried' about Chris Hughes finding out about it. He made it sound like it was someone who was working with or rather under Gus in Legal Shield, and that they were worried Chris was going to cause this person problems if he found out (that they were in the car with Gus? I'm not sure what exactly this person was allegedly so worried about).

Basically, it sounded a lot like an attempt to discredit Chris Hughes, to make him seem like a threatening, bullying type of person because htis unknown passenger in the car was so worried about him.

Then Martinez asked Gus (with a grin) "So who was that person?" and Gus replied "That's not relevant." To which Martinez awesomely replied "that's not how this works."

Sidebar, and the judge decided that Gus should write the name of that person down and that it would be part of the sealed court records and not made public.

Gus didn't want to do it. He kept asking "What if I refuse?", the judge was all "I order you to do it" and still he refused. After a bit of back and forth he said "Can I plead the fifth", to which the judge replied that they'd have to confer on that, and does Gus have a lawyer he can ask for counsel on this matter.

Turns out, Mr. Legal Shield has no lawyer he can call :floorlaugh:

Then the public was asked to leave the courtroom and the judge said they were going to have a "procedure" without the public, and when the broadcast came back, Gus was gone.

It was a thing of beauty.

I sure hope Gus is doing this :jail:, even if only for one night. I don't think it's likely, but one can dream...

Wow, that was a great play by play..thank you!!! I hope they show it all on In Session tomorrow before court starts. He is so arrogant isn't he? Even with the Judge. He reminds me of Andrea Sneiderman if you know who I'm talking about. She also tangled with both attorneys and the Judge, as a witness. He must be *something* to be in a relationship with. Blech.

bbm. I agree with this. He did not treat her or himself in a way anyone would be too proud of. Did he 'deserve to die'? I don't think so. I just don't canonize him just because he died. I respect the mourning. that's it.

jmo, moo, 2 cents yada yada yada etc etc etc

No number=nobody in the car with him.

Is this on the media thread? anyone know?

 

[AngelWings444]

He said he didn't want to be photographed. I imagine he's looking out for his family and doesn't really want to be connected to this any more than necessary.

He also said he didn't want to be photographed in the shower by JA. Isn't it illegal to take pictures of someone without their knowledge? I did feel a little sorry for DB today. However, he was very quick to answer all the defense questions, then it was like pulling teeth to get him to answer a question from the prosecution. He/JB showed JA premeditated Travis's murder!

Today, was ALL prosecution and it's the Defense's big day. Doesn't sit well for JA. IMO

Attorney Jordan Rose on JVM. What is with this lawyer's hair?

She can't even fit into the frame!!!

Visual for those who aren't watching.

So...what DID he do to make him ashamed of himself? I'm really curious as to why you don't think he was an innocent person murdered in cold blood.

Dang........I knew I should have made myself watch it but I was getting my dinner on the table at the time and thought >>>>oh shoot it will probably be more about 'wonderful me' so I didnt watch.:floorlaugh:

Maybe I can find it on line later.

Open note to JVM: I don't know any woman who has had breast implants.

 

[Grammy Jean]

Whatever happened with the female witness the defense talked about yesterday?

I think probably that would be the woman Gus alleges was in the car with him but is now afraid to come forward because of Chris Hughes and how it could have an effect on her financially.

 

[here_now12]

No number=nobody in the car with him.

That's what I think. And since someone posted farther upthread that you can only plead the fifth for yourself, and not to protect a third party (I don't know about that since we have a different system here), I think that's exactly what was going on here.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.
