trial day 31: the defense continues it's case in chief #87

[bexlex]

THAT met the criteria????

 

[perfectvirgo]

What utter cr&p. It didn't take her years to confront things. It took her years to get her story straight!

 

[Angelo]

OMG!!! The horror of doing something so opposite who she really was. . . . . .IS THIS GUY FOR REAL?!?!?!?!?

Jodi said almost the exact same thing while on the stand.

 

[callyn]

This look says to me "you better not say I'm crazy, Shrink":what:

 

[ButForFortune]

Is Jodi drawing?

In court?

 

[A_News_Junkie]

Her B3 is she is an OBSESSIVE STALKER. :banghead:

 

[scorpio24]

but, but she doesnt write down bad things......

She CAN'T! That would violate the Law of Attraction! Can he talk about that?!? It is a BIG part of the person she thought she was! lease:

 

[Observer in AZ]

Hmm making up stories to not get called is PSTD huh?

Does this mean every 5 yr old caught with hand in cookie jar & says not me actually has PSTD?

BTW he said: Me & Mr Nurmi took several meetings to help her come to terms (trainslation: create this bullchit story/excuse)

WOW Gem of a witness here!

 

[BritsKate]

bbm - YES.. This is what I thought we would expect to see from someone with PTSD. I suppose they will try to explain her lack of response away by saying she's experiencing some dissociation? I guess? But I don't see how they can have it every way. They can't just diagnose every dispicable part of her character away with a DSM diagnosis. Well, I'm sure they can, but it won't fly.

I don't have PTSD but I've seen it in action. I've also seen a very similar physiological response in abuse survivors who haven't been DX'd as PTSD too. I called it a visceral response but its like what you are all describing. You're confronted with a memory of something that happened to you and your body literally just takes over. You can't even begin to help it.

She doesn't exhibit even that in my estimation.

 

[BunnyHop]

I left work at 5:30 pm est. It's now 6:32 PM yawn yawn yawn...............
This guy's a real <mod snip>. This "witness" will only damage the defense.
He's no "expert". He's a <mod snip>.

:truce::moo::truce:

 

[NashBridges2]

b3? You sunk my battleship.

lmfao

 

[Tiki]

Is this all just to explain her lies after the murder??????????/

.

 

[Truth Detector]

Travis Alexander was stabbed in the back and in the back of the head.

His hands and arms were sliced open when he tried to shield himself from the attacking torture-murderess.

Mr. Samuels, JW, and JA, I'll tell you what you can do with your PTSD...

 

[nadjatheresa]

If she has PTSD as a result of murdering Travis, then how is it relevant to her defense?

 

[SunDawnn]

All Juan has to ask:

JM- Can everything you've been describing to this jury Dr Samuel, be faked?
RS- Hmmmmm, yes. Yes it can!
JM-No further questions your Honor.

 

[JusticeJunkie]

C6 - also traits of a psychopath. That's her true diagnosis.

 

[StephanieHartPI]

this is NOT meaningful to a Jury. They want to know if he thinks she did it...

 

[bexlex]

She meets C6??? BS she is a sociopath!!!

 

[Chester_from_THM]

30% of defendants on trial for murder claim memory loss.

Ah, no s*** Sherlock. The other 69% probably claim accident or self-defense.

Then 1% are like Jodi and claim all three.

 

[RR0004]

Samuels..."I didn't look into the details of the studies." WTH???!!
