trial day 39: the defense continues its case in chief #117

[Pensfan]

Don't borderlines have rages too?

Rages are symptoms of many psych disorders. Conduct Disorders frequently have rages too.

 

[Sulamith]

Elder Jeff Jensen is on Dr. Drew's program. He's talking about how he taught the Mormon faith to JA.

Wow, he is on Dr. Drew now! Here he is on The Cultural Hall podcast. Is he staying true to his original story? http://www.theculturalhallpodcast.com/2013/03/special-episode-elder-jensenjodi-arias/

Good catch!

You know Jodi likes men more than women.

Just sayin

She probably was jealous of Tricolor.

I don't know, but IMO JA is incapable of feeling anything, she shows no remorse, no guilt whatsoever, cares nothing about the feelings of others (despite her claims otherwise - her actions speak differently)

Do borderlines have feelings, empathy and remorse?

 

[AZWatcher]

Wait....wait...didn't JA's mom try to sell something to the Enquirer to help JA out??? Something like that or involved with the art work....I need a break this case is killing me.:banghead:

Yes but it wasn't gonna help to have one bumbling shrink/expert for hire... Biotch needs a whole GD team of psychiatrists to get that diagnosis.

ETA sorry I quoted the wrong post! I was responding to nhic.

Agh! Delayed at LAX. Missed everything. Is LAV off the stand? Is it worth watching the after lunch and afternoon break session?

I believe she ended testimony today at Oct 2007, it's gonna be a while yet.

If you want to get upset that Travis is being murdered all over again by this witnesses' nonsense testibloney then watch, if not don't bother.

 

[SyraKelly]

IMO the DT has asked them to be there. And IMO they are being paid to be there. It looks good for the jury, so the DT would think

The DF can not pay anyone to sit in the courtroom.They are there to show the jury they care,but do they really???We don't know anything going on in that family.Why are they NOT testifying for her in the guilt or innocent phase?
They know she is a sociopath ,they are waiting for the penalty phase to show that about her and will hope the jury has mercy on her!!

 

[elementary]

She knows her daughter is a cold blooded murderer.

She probably knows a lot of scary things Jodi has done through the years.

She was probably relieved when she moved out.

IMO

But it doesn't stop her and the rest of the family and supporters from making a mockery of the ribbons.

He said she had a personality disorder

 

[oceanblueeyes]

Travis isn't on trial either but most days you can't tell because it sure seems like it.

Now THAT is 100 percent the truth.

Its been horrible.......

Revictimized over and over again.

 

[ElleElle]

Score today:

Juan: 3 points
a. Juror #5 getting booted off the jury.
b. ALV blowing the DV defence strategy.
c. Jodi's parents interview with Flores post arrest indicating Jodi is <you fill in the blank>

DT:
A BIG FAT ZERO

 

[Pensfan]

Wher? What? How do I find out what y'all are talking about?

Go back to about page 15. Dr. Drew had new unseen clips of Jodi's mom and dad during interrogation.

 

[deedee21]

ITA. She would have done better with an insanity defense. But I am sure that JA would never tolerate that.

She planned all of it out. Knows right from wrong.

 

[Bada Bing]

I think number 5 asked the bulk of the questions. Hope we hear from her tomorrow.

I do too. I bet they compared handwriting of her questions to some other court document signatures.

 

[seguek9]

Crap on a cracker!!!
My hinky meter just "Chernobyl"ed

This trial is gonna make Ringling Bros look like a quilting bee....

[/B]Balm;9151329]Jodi Arias trial update: Was excused juror already in hot water?

PHOENIX - Tuesday may not have been the first time Juror #5 in the trial of Jodi Arias has been accused of improper conduct.
<snipped>

In court records, we found a transcript of a phone call made to Judge Sherry Stephen’s division phone at 8:36 a.m. on February 23.

According to the transcript, the caller claims there are reports that the juror needs to be watched.

“The one with multi-colored hair is attempting to coach Arias from the jury box. She shakes her head no, no, no to tell Jodi not to answer a question,” the caller alleged in the message on Stephens' voicemail.

LOL Well most of my best friends growing up were boys, not to say that I didn't have female friends too. I think Jodi just figured out that boys/men could be easier to manipulate IMO. She uses sex to get control and to keep it. I would bet that in high school the boys liked her...the girls? Not so much:twocents:

 

[Pensfan]

He said she had a personality disorder

If he was accurate, he would have made that plural.

 

[Bada Bing]

He said she had a personality disorder

Yes, if you have bipolar there are meds for that like Abilify and even Lithium.
I think Juan asked Dr Quack about her meds and those weren't on the list.

Why can't the DT pay the mother to sit in court everyday? How is she affording hotel rooms and meals? ASAIK that family isn't wealthy.

 

[Nhic]

He said she had a personality disorder

That's it, he said she has "other" or "several" personality disorders. I'm sure I remember him saying that because at the time I thought WHOA why isn't Juan asking him to elaborate?
