trial day 39: the defense continues its case in chief #116

[beldon]

You're right, and that just leaves two possibilities. ALV either can't figure out that they weren't in a real relationship, or she doesn't care. Neither is good given her role here.

Potential juror question: Ms Laviolette, are you remotely familiar with the term "f*** buddies?

i love how we're supposed to buy that JA internalized the precepts of Mormonism.

Wow, Jodi is really eyeing the jury today - looking for her next victim.. She makes me sick.

I believe if my life were in the hands of the jury, I wouldn't be eyeing them and making them feel threatened. I would feel threatened if an accused killer was acting that way towards me. I'd be thinking I don't ever want that person out.

Sorry if this has been mentioned already...After seeing Tanisha and Samantha in tears this morning, I just couldn't think of anything else. When it was reported that juror #5 was spotted leaving the courthouse in tears, I thought, maybe after learning that she would be released from duty, she got to tell Travis' sisters how she truly felt and that's why there was so much raw emotion from them and from her. It could also explain why the B1T)H was so smug when trial began but hopefully we will all be the ones wearing smiles in a few weeks. Keep the Faith!!

Hello everyone! I'm new here. I've been lurking for a while. I'm still learning my way around. I look forward to participating in the great discussions!

I would appreciate any advice you may have for a newbie! Thanks!

:welcome3:

I get the fact we don't want a mistrial and need to give her every opportunity of a great defense,but geez louise, this is like a torture,each and every form of communication associated with her and Travis dissected and reiterated over and over...ARGH....

0/T I have two weeks of sick pay and told the boss,I feel Juan day in about three weeks ,I will be calling in...:floorlaugh:

 

[miss plum]

Ugh at her horrid smirk just then when ALV said TA found her sexy.

 

[3trees]

So according to Alyce, when JA lies in her journal it's rationalization. I am so sick of this of this.

 

[grammieto5]

WOW, I just took a quick look to see if Juan was speaking, and I saw him sitting there, he seems deflated, I haven't watched any of this BS today, does he seem that way to anyone else, hope it's just me :-(

 

[Pink Panther]

This is abhorant.

 

[leebee52]

I should have hired this lady to make excuses for my not going to school. She's the expert excuse giver.

 

[Sleuth5]

I think our court reporter just rolled his eyes big-time. He's so awesome

I did that for a while myself. I quit because I couldn't stand sitting there like a statue for hours at a time. You're supposed to be as expressionless as possible. It takes more than I've got to remain expressionless.

 

[Tipstaff]

rationalization: that explains her feelings over killing Travis...

You mean since TA moved on AND in JA's opinion he deserved to be murdered? Sounds like a rationalization according to Alice.

 

[Rosemary Pierce]

Win-win for the State. If she finishes early, JM crosses. If she stalls, the jury will hate her.

I have to keep reminding myself NO MATTER how long she stalls...... cross, and rebuttal are inevitable.....and then I SMILE!

Rachel is conveniently placed in JA's stories, huh?

 

[STEADFAST]

.....

 

[Plumeria5]

ALV...La Violin simply adores Jodi! She can do no wrong!
JW came away from the sidebar giggling then proceeds to talk about Travis threatening suicide. How long is this nonsense going to go on? They just keep jumping around hoping to confuse the jury. I don't think I have ever seen a witness go this overboard! I am beginning to think ALV has adopted Jodi as her own.

Candy keeps coming! OMG!

 

[Angelina Frost]

This is the DT's last ditch effort to get a 2nd degree instruction. The defendant is all cracked out because her spiritual guru messes with her head and she just snapped.

Not gonna happen people. Not. Going. To. Happen.

 

[Horace Finklestein]

Alyce, should you be testifying to things you could not possibly know?

 

[ohiogirl]

I could be a paid DV expert witness if all you have to do is get on the stand and read emails. Sheesh.
