Trial break: The State vs Jodi Arias; trial resumes 4 February 2013

[Sulamith]

speaking of triggers!

Have you read TA's blog? May 18th?

http://travisalexander.blogspot.com/

I feel like that ( last ) blog entry could have really pushed her over the edge...to plan his last chance and IMO demise.

IMO that blog explains - the qualities he is looking for in a woman to meet date love - love him and marry. All i can think of is JA reading that...whomever he wants to date and marry - Isn't her!!! - out there for the whole world to see.

it is not long from May 18th -raging --plotting--stealing the gun...planning the road trip...& June 4th.

:cowcouch:

Have you read TA's MySpace page? I wonder if the comment about "" was directed at JA. I find it a strange thing to say, esp. coming from an adult. He did not delete her as one of his "friends". Maybe by writing that he was hoping that JA would see that she was a "" in his eyes and she would get the message that he was done with her. Whatever it might have been, I do not like men to call women "".

"Who I'd like to meet:
HMMM well Jesus for starters. People who like to give high 5's incessantly. I'd also like to meet Osama Bin Laden in all out no holds barr, winner take all cage fight. Christopher Walken would be fun to eat Lunch with. Really most people, well except for . They are a dime a dozen these days especially on myspace. So if your employment involves a webcam, I don't see it going anywhere. Outside of that I'm good to go"

Are you sure I didn't hear about shootings evey single day? You may want to re think that.

Also regardless of what the media is doing, its disgusting that these shootings are happening every single day!

You as in the plural second-person form. General "you". Not you, as an individual. I have no idea what you hear. I'm simply saying the media doesn't make as big of a deal out of the 2-3 murders a day in areas like Chicago as they do other places. Never have.

Man- look at everyone's chairs ... They ALL come up to everyone's shoulders. Every single one. Except Jodi. Does she have the Mini-Me chair or what?!

Boy when she gets up on that stand she won't have that teensie chair to sit in. How is she going to hide herself then?

She'll probably pull herself into a sweater.
Sound familiar?

I'm providing you another link because you seem genuinely interested in the subject of psychopathy, IMO you should begin here...

From that link: This Charming Psychopath: How to Spot Social Predators Before They Attack. Good read, again, thank you!

So wait....I admit I haven't been following this case closely until now. She actually TOLD the police she killed him? For some reason I have been thinking she only told her defense team that. OMG

No, she did not tell police that but has apparently now admitted that she is the one who killed him -- according to her lawyers.

When she described Travis' murder, she attributed it to two intruders -- many, including me, believe that much of her description was accurate, except that was Jodi who was doing the shooting and stabbing and not intruders.

Dr. Hare does a few seminars throughout the year, if at all possible anyone interested in psychopathy try to attend! He's THE expert on the subject. IMO

I don't know if you're interested, but here's an article about Hare and his own misgivings about the use of the PCL-R in criminal justice settings.
I found it very interesting. I have a lot of respect for Dr. Hare.

She's told four stories, I think four. The final being she killed him in self defense.

There was something about a greased up emu running down a highway...

I get a tad cranky when asked for a link, I provide one...or four and then it's not even acknowledged by the one that requested it! Lol it's nice when others appreciate it.

Oh my. I hadn't seen the pee pee picture yet. Hmmm......

Agree but I remember in one of her TV interviews she started to hedge her bet about what happened to Travis. She said something to the effect that it will be made clear at trial. It made me think she was shifting away from the ninjas did it story into something else. She actually looked coy like she understood she was leaving the audience in totally suspense for the next installment of 'the world according to Jodi Arias.'

I watched the video of TA's sister and her husband when they were married in 2010. She is a very beautiful woman and from the video it appears she has moved on. We have many members here who have suffered through the same thing TA's family is going through right now. When the trial comes up they will all tell you the same thing. They can't eat, sleeping is difficult, etc. because they are reliving the event. It's part of the process they have to go through that is different than what is typical when a family member just dies from a disease or accident. It takes enormous strength to sit there day after day and I must say our hearts go out to them.

This is one reason why I say there is no proof they had sex other than from what Jodi has said and from friends who may have talked to TA about it. It appears he tried to distance himself from her and keep it on a friendship only basis because she was in the PPL business. I could see him doing that until he had had enough. Unless all these allegations are proven this constant speculation he was having wild sex with her only hurts the family because they already know the truth.

Another thing that bothers me. Why was Jodi going to TA's roommate and discussing personal information that may not have been true? Seems to me Jodi liked to start trouble. If she felt conflicted about how TA felt about her why didn't she go to their bishop. That is what he is there for. Instead she whines to his friends who tries to council her when they should have sent her to someone who had experience handling these types of situations. Sounds like the roommate who clued Lisa in got their info from Jodi and chances are she lied just to make sure Lisa would no longer come around on those social nights. jmo

BBM You are right, there is no proof they had sex..I am not being snarky here, but what was he doing, naked, with a huge bottle of KY? Who took the picture? Did he take the pic himself?

The act of masterbation alone would make him temple unworthy. Mimi Hall said he was unworthy. I don't remember if she knew in which capacity he was unworthy. Don't know if JA went to her bishop about her problems with TA, I would not "tattle". Bishops have no training. They are there for spiritual problems. He would most likely refer her LDS Family Services for counseling for her and Travis.

Aw. I wouldn't take it personally. Sometimes I want to respond to a post, but can't find it anymore - things move so fast on this forum.

I love links!

 

[Carol2]

Ugh! I have not seen fatal attraction but my will to not watch it is being destroyed. At this rate I will be "acquiring it" by the end of the weekend.

It is a very good movie - but leaves you scared out of your wits. Glenn Close absolutely nails the part. And I don't think we had ever seen a character exactly like that before Fatal Attraction. Let us know what you think after you see it.

 

[CUCKOOHEAD]

Good night everybody! See ya all on Monday sometime when we all will be spellbound for another twenty minutes of testimony followed by six hours of seal. 'Til then, mua.

I've been reading! I thought I've thanked your posts, though. I was gonna respond when I had something substantial to reply with. My apologies!

In the court minutes which I'm looking for the state said she confirmed that he was unconscions yet moved. If you go back a few pages you will find my quote from the court minutes. It however does not contain the link so I'm going through the minutes again to find out in what reference she states that.

i do agree with you about the sex for the same reason. why is he naked on his bed, and she's naked on the bed, if they didn't have sex? that makes no sense to me. but it doesn't MATTER to me either.

speaking of the bishop, TA went to the bishop about HER, didn't he?

and again, not directing this to you or anybody---JMO---but it really feels like TA being a bad mormon is becoming the issue of this trial, and that's just wrong.

 

[Sustained]

Does anyone know if there's a video of Travis' memorial service ?
