Jodi Arias -- Trial for the murder of Travis Alexander #9

Ah! Now we know why JA's early childhood was painted as good; contrast it to Travis' as being painted as deprived+depraved...


Travis DID have an adult to count on. He wrote it about it in his journals. He had his grandparents.

JA's DT is wearing touches of blue trying to neutralize the Travis team. Wonder how long they will be wearing blue?

Oh Golly, here we go with TA was an abuser based on his childhood. Character assination by the Dteam.

Freckles....LOL....I think that's it...I think Jodi's FOG is literally Fog....Didn't Travis have a lighted fountain that emitted FOG??!!! hmmmmm.... maybe that's the fog she went through...lol

BS! Too much speculation!
"Sometimes" you end up channeling like your parents... BS.
No foundation. No credit for the individual. Too much of a box without accounting for an individual difference.

Travis turned it around.
That is part of the reason he was SO well liked!
He took the bad, negative in his life and found the good!
He focused on looking forward, finding the good in life, in others, in himself.

And THAT is what Jodi wanted for herself! The essence of Travis.

I wonder if Mrs Laviolette really realize that Dteam is using her to trash TA and create pity for JA .

Objection 3.

Fight vs flight describes Jodi;
the bully who traveled thousands of miles to kill Travis AFTER she tried to seduce him to her way by using sex; and then, NOT flight, BUT FIGHT. Murder.

Until he met JA.

"Worst kinds of violence tend to be perpetrated by those who grew up in violence."
Hello, Jodi!

Who went all stabby crazy???

Well my goodness ...isn't she just describing life....I mean....roses and fairy dust doesn't fall from the skies 24/7 in anybodys life.....It's what you Choose to do with it and how you handle it......Such a broad stroke/generalities....

The idea that she has kicked and verbally abused her mother...who's the aggressor?!! Did you hear of Travis kicking and verbally abusing his Grandmother????

I do think TA allowed himself to be sucked into an abusive relationship with JA. I also think he allowed himself to be a little abusive. I think he knew this was happening and also saw the abusive JA and got out.
When I was in an abusive relationship, toward the end, I became somewhat abusive, throwing things, calling names, I don't know how this happened. I did recognize that it was happening though. I think JA brought out some bad in TA.

I have her children w me 18 hrs a day, and I see my baby girl in them, I would have taken her illness in a heartbeat, Travis did not deserve this slaughter and I'm so pissed at the circus she brought to town, damn her miserable ass!!!!

Sorry for your loss THATGIRL it is very unnatural for a parent to loose a child it is the most difficult thing. I am so glad that you have been able to have her children with you and take comfort with them.

This is the only recourse they(DT) have right?
"My client was abused so it's not her fault" basically...
it's 'Guilty-as-sin-101' and I hope the Jury sees right through it.

Bottom line, no fearful, cowering abuse victim is gonna drive
a 1000 frickin' miles to be with their abuser!!
The whole premise is ridiculous on it's face...
or ridiculous on HER face..
or sumthin'..

I agree with you. Very insightful~

And don't forget the big, bad Abuser had a gun in his closet too. So ridiculous, can't wait for GUILTY VERDICT.

I wonder how long this DT will keep this one on the stand...And then jury questions, and then cross---interrupted and prolonged ad nauseum by DT, then re-direct....
Sigh...
Hubby and I were trying to guess when Juan might finally get a chance to begin his rebuttal case.
I bet they keep Alice on the stand all damn week until court recesses for the holiday at noon on Thursday. Juan probably won't even get to begin the cross until NEXT Tues., the 2nd. MAYBE they'll get done by some miracle this Thurs. AM and Juan might get in 5 minutes of cross in with JW making "speaking objections" non stop!
I really hope the jury doesn't have that many questions for this one...
I figure we'll be lucky to see Juan begin his cross before LATE NEXT WEEK.

Jodi in trouble?
Guard with judge; Nurmi standing over Jodi; Jodi being cute faced to Nurmi; judge pulls a time out!
Flores looking past Juan, talking to Juan; both have heads directed toward Jodi...

bmore thanks for the welcome.
I haven't been able to watch very much of the trial. It is great catching up with all of you!
JA really is a piece of work....I find when I do watch I am yelling at the TV

If they ultimately read "GUILTY OF MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE", and "GUILTY OF ALL CHARGES", do you think Jodi will show any emotion? Cry and swoon?
Just think, we may see the first real tears from her in this whole trial---Tears because she has no life now----No tears for the victim who lost his life---a life of hope and promise.

Stabby was seated at he table. The clerk was speaking to the Judge and then the Judge sent her to get the Bailiff.



WildAboutTrial Mike B went back into chambers. Attorneys are still in courtroom, talking with #JodiArias. Not sure what's up at the moment.

I really really doubt she will shed any tears.

She'll probably give them the Bent finger....LOL

I wonder... The look on JA's face to Nurmi: she was seated looking up all cute-faced and smiling... like cat that got caught in the milk. Her actions were slightly animated around the mouth and her cheeks were flushed... like she was pleased with her self.

Apparently, the guard/bailiff approached the judge after JA entered the court; that is what started all this...

Did JA try to speak with a juror?? Tamper with her electronic devices? JA was reported to be upset with documents on the DT table at break... pointing and soundlessly demanding...

She get all stabby with with witness during the break?

Finding rumors:

@WildAboutTrial

Juan and Det. Flores are whispering something to Travis' family. A few chuckles are exchanged. #JodiArias

WildAboutTrial @WildAboutTrial

Juan just walked back in with Det. Flores. Mike B is back. No sign of #JodiArias and the defense yet though.

HLN are saying it's about death threats against the defense.

Maybe, wooden spoons confiscated?

JA is missing her water and the cup....

4th objection

OMG...it depends on the individual....

... Often times the stories were very, very different... so she would interview the participants separately. IF there are two stories, the truth is worse than either of them...

(Did she interview Travis? Any of his friends?

Let's talk about women as abusers... Are men likely to report being abused by a female , a girl friend?)

Jodi Arias is a cross between Casey Anthony and Andrea Yates.....Creepy.....weird how they all favor each other....

Exactly Freckles....

Wilmott cuts off her witness... repeatedly.
That means Wilmott is not listening to the speaker.
Also, this, All right! Okay! tells me she is rushing the next question and not listening. Juan IS listening.

Maybe a Hypothetical about Jodi...what would you say about a person who kicks dogs and treats cats like dirt and kicks and verbally abuses their mother and lies all the time and steals and slashes tires and invites themselves to things and peeps through windows and crawls through doggie doors and sleeps under christmas trees and takes pictures of themselves and talks dirty over the phone and role plays and hmmmmm...oh and someone who drives a 1000 miles to see their abuser ?Whatcha think??? Normal??!!!

What relevance does this have????Please stop the $300 an hour road trips!

Bo don't forget their who-ha looks like it's sticking it's tongue out at you.... lol

just got back home trying to catch up, miss anything good?

For your reading:RE Samuels


" "Saying Jodi Arias has dissociative amnesia is like saying Casey Anthony would make a great babysitter," said Dr. Steven Pitt, referring to the Florida woman who was acquitted of murdering her daughter after claiming that the girl had been stolen by a babysitter.

"This guy, he got bamboozled by Jodi Arias," said Pitt, a forensic psychiatrist from the Phoenix area who has testified and consulted on several high profile cases across the nation. "He drank her Kool-Aid and now he is finding out that it is a toxic mix of 'BS.'" "

I can't wait to hear the hypothetical scenarios JM will throw out!!

Facts facts facts.....where's the facts???

Bmore..LOL...ewwwwww

Jodi Arias...."The 8th wonder of the World" Biggest sinkhole ever...LOL (ok now i have to stop...image..poof!!)

on JVM they were showing her testimony where TA's text her the you'll rejoice in being a whore, etc... Rejoice? really... yeah he's a real menace using religious type terms to talk dirty... lol

So... when did you discover JA lied to you?
Did you interview her family?
Are they ALL liars , too?
Is Angela really stupid as JA says?
Who killed the family dog?
Why did the cat leave scars on JA's arms?
Why would JA kill Travis? Was it Mimi or Cancun or feeling of losing her "MAN" ?

Why IS Jodi such a skank?
Why sexually promiscuous?

Have you interviewed Travis' sibs?
Thots there?
