trial day 41: the defense continues its case in chief #120

[TXProfessional]

FWIW, with 20+ years of mental health experience, if anyone would like ask questions related to the psychological aspects of this trial I would be glad to provide any insight that maybe within my scope of clinical knowledge and experience. :twocents:

Where is the Aunt??

 

[mobius99]

No, Jodi's mother is the one who decided that her daughter was bi-polar based on a phone call from a friend rather than ever taking her daughter anywhere to get a medical diagnosis from professionals for the "strange person" she was according to Jodi's father who "has mental problems" according to Jodi's mother. Jodi's mother is the one who has decided that she's all over a ridiculous defense about abuse by / pedophilia of the slaughtered victim because she's now enjoying the "best relationship" with her psychopathic daughter " since she was 18".

Having a best friend who is also unfortunately the parent of a diagnosed psychopath, she and I totally see through Jodi's mom. The difference is that my friend would never be in this lovely land of denial that Jodi's mom is fully willing to inhabit.

Wow. I hope I have the power to see the future, so everything I do today doesn't come back and haunt me in the future. Because in the world you just described everything I didn't do (and should have done) may be held against me in the court of public opinion.

I respect your right to voice passionate opinions of your impressions of Mrs Arias here. I don't see it quite that way, but I appreciate your honesty.

Now we know why ALV was sick yesterday.

They had to rehearse the anti-stalking defense.

 

[NashBridges2]

How many times/ways does Wilnott have to ask the same questions over and over and over and over and over?

 

[KMouse]

ALV is being asked about JA being a stalker and if she found any indication of JA being one. ALV says she hasn't.

Travis told two women, Regan and Lisa that he had a stalker.

Juan objected, lack of foundation.

Sidebar.

Is HLN working with the defense?

They did with the trial in fl ..ca...the closer it got to the end of the trial the more pro defense that hln seemed to be. NG got closer and closer to pro defense. It looks like they are doing the same thing this time. IMO

March 22, 2008 text to Jodi from Travis telling her to make herself at home til he arrives

 

[Steely Dan]

The lady from HLN. Ms. Wong I think was her name.

Are you sure that's right? I think it's wong.

 

[Ransom]

Did someone catch which jurors he listed??? I bet those are "targets".

1, 6, 14, 17 ... I think were the #

who's sitting next to Maw A?

 

[shantastic]

JA mom watching the jury

 

[Truth Detector]

Here we go again - ALV knows all that Travis was thinking and doing and saying. :furious:

But, as usual, Judge Stephens is good with it, so...

 

[zoey]

lolol the judge aid that so angry in a sense to the jury .lolol she sounds fed up with the defence team .lol

I wish the judge would say sequester and we work 12 hour days 7 days a week to get this trial running and no more delays and long crosses Mr. Nurmi and Ms. Wilmont.....jmo

 

[Arishia]

SA stated that she thought she could keep JA at home and "nurse her" back to mental health. That, to me, is a failure to act.

It's entirely possible that SA was physically afraid of and intimidated by JA when JA was not jailed.

 

[Midnight Meddler]

Jodi's mom thinks she's discrete in eyeing down the jury....

 

[cricket49]

Oh Wilmott!!!

So now this expert is going to testify based on Jodi's journals and texts that she did not stalk Travis?

Unbelievable!

 

[QueenD]

Side Bar again???? Surprise Surprise !

 

[Donnareit]

Another witness for the defense? They really don't want this trial to end. Not that I can blame them. They will be unemployed and probably for a long time.

Don't know about their employment status, but Jodi won't be such a fashion plate anymore. :moo:

@WildAboutTrial

#JodiArias just came in wearing a red top, hair pulled back in pony tail with a few bangs brushed to the side.

Kudos to the red top picker!

don't you all notice she DOES wear blood red on days she talks about the murder?
