trial day 39: the defense continues its case in chief #115

[Candy_Pickletoes]

Oh that fateful day when I first heard about this case on Yahoo. Why oh why did that have to happen?

:floorlaugh: :floorlaugh: I can't stop laughing over this post. I say this every single day the trial is on. Every day!

:floorlaugh: :floorlaugh:

Please tell me FCA means what I think it means... lease:

Is it not possible for the Judge to tell us what the matter is about before they disappear into chambers??

 

[Tulessa]

Oh. :facepalm:

I know it is a little late to say this but please watch how invested you become in this case. I know too late.

After the CA case, I will watch and listen, but never be that invested again.

It really is life altering if things don't turn out as expected.

So true! I've become too invested, and it's not even my country! :floorlaugh:

Yes. Fox. They cover this daily when court is in session and they are VERY victim friendly (none of the liberal "criminals deserve this and that crap") and have great analysis. Hate on Fox all ya want, but they have done a good job covering this during the day. IMO, of course.

ITA. Only have HLN on because of the triall. But, to follow trial Fox has the best live feed. Never any problems and interruptions. Fox is only news cable allowed in my home. jmo

GREAT tweet I just saw:
@MissHathaway
It'd be cool if judge and counsel snuck out a back door, leaving Travis' sisters in chambers alone with #jodiarias for about 62 seconds.

That is the BEST!!!

It is very strange that Travis' family were called into chambers; from a prosecutor's point of view, I think something crucial is happening.

IIRC, TA's family and JA were in chambers two weeks ago over the whole ribbon thing.

I don't think I will follow another trial, too stressful. I said the same thing when kc was acquitted. The 48. Hr video got me, her weird demeanor.

I am wound up... turning HLN on, making sure computer speakers are at max, then turning HLN off, double checking computer speakers... should I go dust? Mop? Do laundry? Thanks, Jodi!

Isn't the argument for a mistrial done in open court??

nothing in this trial happens in open court. i've really never seen anything like it. it's all at sidebar and in chambers. trials are supposed to be public!!

 

[Equinoxical]

I just don't understand why the Travis' family would be in chambers with the defendant. That is just very very strange!

I have to think that the only reason for them to be back there is so that JM can confer with them, and the only reason I can think of for that would be a plea.

 

[JusticeJunkie]

I still have the seal on WPTV

Me too - on Wild about Trials

 

[ctmom]

It wouldn't be JM accepting a deal it would be JM's boss. JM isn't the one who calls all those shots but he certainly does have input into them.

In all reality.. I would think its up to Travis's family...
not JM's boss

Ok I am actually taking a Xanax. I can't take the pressure anymore. It's been going for days all worried about this stupid mistrial stuff. I give in!

*gulp*

ETA: These are prescribed to me, not illegally obtained. Just saying so no post deletion. I usually hold off on this until my own PTSD gets overboard or I can't sleep due to nightmares. It goes to show I guess how invested my heart is to this family and the people involved in convicting this evil monster. I don't want any of their work flushed or the family to go through it all for nothing.

 

[Beccaboo]

Be back in 10/15 minutes. This is making me ill waiting to see what is happening. going to go do something productive for a minute

 

[sammie]

Does Jodi have the right to ask that any juror be removed?

Any motion filed by the Defense is filed on her behalf.

 

[JSR]

Isn't the argument for a mistrial done in open court??

It should be. But since it's based on sealed material (i.e. the juror interviews) it may not be.

 

[katiewonders]

Oooo, got some dramer this morning, huh? I can't read as fast as these pages fly by....

Contrary to some folks thinking this trial is not put on for our viewing pleasure. We are fortunate it is on at all. jmo
