trial day 40: the defense continues its case in chief #119

[Truth Detector]

Unpossible! Both experts have said Jodi was not jealous. :seeya:

Not jealous of Clancy Talbot -- tipsy woman at OKC PPL Conference -- at all...

 

[Dana]

I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's like nails on a chalkboard. She needs to wipe the smile off her face and realize someone was brutally murdered and that's why she is there. She acts like she and JA are BFF's while Nurmi won't even look at JA. I think he hates himself for not dropping the case, he knows they are looking like fools.

I agree about JW - sheesh!
Nurmi had no choice but I think he's disgusted with JA, JW and the case. Maybe he's just looking for ways to get a mistrial to get outta there.

Be careful about the shelves you stand on to grab those splints...you might just give yourself a reason to need them.

both?

I heart you!!!

Seems Arias really wanted Detective Flores to have a look at her diaries - which just screams set-up to me... what a scheming creep.

I thought so too. And we all know how Jodi likes to do things in 2s or 3s. Double diaries?

 

[Mrs G Norris]

Her poor mom. I know her mom has done some things in court that have taken away from some of the sympathy people might have had for her, but the woman is watching a trial for her daughter where she might get the DP. There has to be a way to change the world just enough so that there can be more prevention, more help for adults who are not insane, but disturbed, and an ability for family and friends to alert SOMEONE .. at the moment, there's nothing. There's nothing in Australia, I know that. Unless someone wants help for themselves, theres nothing anyone else can do. It's awful.

Is there trial tomorrow, if so does it start at 9:30 again? TIA

 

[legalmania]

Jodi would never tell a lie. :angel:

I thought she said she could lie but not under oath?

 

[shane13]

Is there any suggestion that Jodi did weed (or any other affecting substance) more recently?

Just literally this moment asked the same question and got a "yes".

No, today ALV cleaned up some of that with JW.

ALV said that she had misspoken about the computer and that JA had told her that it was a paper picture of a naked little boy IIRC, (not a little boy in underwear, as JA fabricated it on cross). ALV blamed her error on an invalid assumption she made due to "young people" using computers these days. ALV had already told the jury that she doesn't "speak email."

Well, that's one heck of an assumption! Seems to me she should get the "facts" (yeah, right) straight before she testifies.

There needs to be a "Lol" button as well as a thanks button!!

oh, i thought it was the tom hanks button.. j/k i thank people for making me laugh, but yeah i would like a like/groan button lol.

I thought it was a wonderfully pathetic way to get around one of many of JA's lies.

i hope their convos were taped, or does she not tape like samuels?

 

[gloomy]

Did she really say that? What a liar...

 

[MaryAnn]

I wonder if JM's computer rebuttal witness, Mr brown, can give us any insight into Jodis encounters on LDSLinkUp/Sam Schultz/Ryan Burns...prolly doesn't matter-- but ive been trying off and on all day to find her proflie....dead end.

The LDSLinkUp story cracked me up. I wouldn't have brought it up. The first thing I thought of was JA sexually seducing more young innocent Mormon men. Thank goodness for Ryan Burns telling it like it really is. She is the agressor in bed. yuck... Who would want her!!

 

[shane13]

LOL!
Your comment reminded me of the great book by Mark Lane, Plausible Denial.

After E. Howard Hunt (in the Appeals trial vs Spotlight Magazine) takes the oath swearing to tell the truth etc. Lane got him (under oath of course) to say that he would lie under oath--if he felt "national security" was at risk.

In reality--just like with Jodi--if his own security were at risk, the oath meant nothing.
Liars gonna lie.

Why?

Doc Scamuels made it up as he went along, too.

Aren't they paid $250 & $300 per hour to assume and guess, as ALV said today that she does?

Here I found out that you can petition the courts if your child is an adult to go to court to have them put into a program (if available) for up to 6 months. DrD kept saying "conservitoreship" of the person. To do that, you promise to pay their debts etc...A petition requires I believe that they must be in danger of harming themselves or others. A police report in regards to them doesn't hurt either.

I could be wrong but helped someone when their son was out of control a while back. Parents of adult children have their hands tied but if the person say is a parent and CPS is involved they can call to have CPS inspect the home to insure the children are being taking care of. If not, that helps too.
