    • Brought tears to my eyes, Marja! Yes God will take care of Jodi and JSS, JSS only needs to ask for his help. God is with Jodi and has never left her side not even in her darkest moments. ♥ He alone will get her through this but in his time.

    • Thank you Marja!

      I can’t say I’m a religious person but I sure am spiritual. There IS a Higher Power looking over our girl… ♥

      • That is the simple thing of it all Maria. You do not have to be a deeply religious person performing all of the dramatic performances that so many do to promote their religions. . .all one has to do is ask Him and confirm that you believe in Him and he will never leave you again. Simple. Trust me it does makes a difference. Love You Maria & all! ♥

  1. Interesting tweet from Phoenix lawyer, Brent Kleinman to Michael Kiefer (presumably about possible removal of death penalty for Jodi):

    Brent @ Kleinman Law ‏@brentjkleinman Jan 9
    @michaelbkiefer @azcentral I think there would be rioting in downtown Phx if this happened.

    Michael KieferVerified account ‏@michaelbkiefer
    @brentjkleinman @azcentral Most of the hardcore trial junkies live elsewhere.

    • You know, MK is not wrong. Did you see how the lynch mob reacted with Casey Anthony verdict? Jodi’s haters are x100 times more vicious and vile. They will torch the courthouse if they get a chance!

      • That what I’m waiting for. You would have to have extra security outside and inside the courthouse. I want to see what the media had to say when they arrive…

      • Ya, I remember the day… 500 unfit mothers packed into one cafe, watching the Casey verdict on TV… then crying afterwards. 99% of them never even saw the trial :mrgreen:

  2. Let us pray that Judge Stephens makes the right decision this morning and puts an end to this circus.

    • Ray how can she not??
      She will never get reelected. I just can’t believe that she wants her legacy to read ” The judge that allowed corruptionin her court room to continue”.

      But then again how deep does this corruption go?? I sometimes feel as if they set her up. In what other state would they put a judge without capital murder experience on the bench??

      • A state where those who are in charge need those benches seated by judges who KNOW who is in charge – like, say, a woman who spent 21 years in the AZ AG’s office’s Organized Crime Division.

      • I too believe they set her up. JM knew he could run roughshod all over her. Imagine throwing a camera to the ground with Judge Belvin Perry on the bench. He’d have thrown JM in jail!

  3. Today we await to see if the Circus will remain in AZ or if they are packing the clowns in the car, the rabbits in the hat, the tutu’s in the trunk.

    Having seen the way Judge Sherry Stephens has ‘kept order’ in her courtroom – NOT, her decision can equally go either way. She is unpredictable. We all have seen her favor and side with the prosecution on multiple occasions.

    It’s a hard call for her really: either she continues to turn a blind eye and rules in favor of the prosecutor thus she keeps the lynch mob away from her doorstep OR she rules in favor of Justice and the law and adjourns this circus trial for good and gets the verbal wrath from all the haters inside and outside the courtroom (maybe a few threats for good measures as we know the haters love to intimidate whoever is supporting Jodi and justice).

    Whatever the ruling is we will not lose hope. If the prosecution gets away with misconduct, perjury, tampering w/evidence scot-free, we will continue our support for justice for Jodi. If on the other hand she rules for the defense, then we will continue our support for justice for Jodi when she files her appeals.

    The appeals are what really matter. That’s where Jodi will get the justice she has been denied of for 7 years.

    WE ARE TEAM JODI, we are here for the long haul. No cyber bullying, no threats, no intimidation will break us, motherfuckers!

    Peace out!

    • It is a difficult job being a judge but she accepted the responsible to uphold the law and even though it might be hard she must do it.

    • Spot on, gf!

      She has gone sooo far with this charade, I personally don’t think she can go back right now. She will continue with this circus, she can’t afford to say “Oooops, DT was right all along. My Prosecutor is corrupt as Hell. Let’s take the DP off the table”

      I just don’t see it happening…. 🙁

      However, I’ve been sending postive energy to our girl, hoping,, praying, keeping fingers crossed that my feeling will be false and that Sherry will find the strength and the wisdom to do the right thing.

      WE LOVE YOU, JODI. WE ARE HERE FOR YOU, NO MATTER WHAT ♥ ♥

    • You just never know, JSS may have already gotten more than a few threats and is feeling the wrath of what has happened because this trial has been so open to the media.

  4. Good Morning Everyone !! Just heard about Jodi Arias case on Fox News – so this is making national headlines today. Does anyone know if there are any increased police presence around the court building / courtroom today???Anyone there can comment please 🙂 🙂 🙂

    • BB that is what I am waiting to here. I’m also wondering in the courtroom also.

      I’m very sure if JSS does her job there will be a lot of drama in the courtroom…. Keep a eye on the Alexanders…

    • If the National Guard shows up, we will know JJS’s decision before she makes it. Or, if the jury doesn’t show up.

    Showed up late to the #JodiArias trial, but just as Jennifer Willmott asks Esteban Flores about protocol handing computers in evidence.

    • she may be reading the JSS ruling….but from the proceeding of the trial that is going on right now, I am guessing that she is proceeding forward with the DP and perhaps ordering an alternative to have the witnesses testifying without revealing their true identities so they are protected…..just guessing though bc I am truly puzzled by this judge and her rulings……….

  34. Michael Kiefer ‏@michaelbkiefer 12s12 seconds ago

    Flores did not know at the time that files on the computer would be overwritten and updated when roused out of sleep mode. #jodiarias

    • But didn’t just say a few minutes ago that he knew he wasn’t suppose to touch the computers? Wtf?

    • There is no way that he did not know this. He would have wanted and needed to be aware, and certainly police dept., prosecutors office, and forensics__ all absolutely would have made certain a person in Flores’ position knew all that. They depended upon people like Flores to get evidence; they would not tolerate him not knowing.

  35. Looks like we could have an interesting ruling very soon, with Gloria Esteban being lined up to take all the flak. After all, someone’s gotta be held accountable. It’s no accident he got demoted to the PR department…

  40. Michael Kiefer ‏@michaelbkiefer 21s22 seconds ago

    Btw, still no sign of Judge Sherry Stephens’ ruling on the death penalty. The fact that we are here suggests she ruled against #Jodiarias.

    • That is my guess as well. Perhaps she has ordered an alternative to protect the identity of the witnesses and is proceeding forward with the DP……. just guessing however, bc JSS is hard figure out……she obviously does NOT follow the law bc otherwise this would have mis-trialed, verdict vacated, and dismissed with prejudice…..we may have to wait for appellate courts or US Supreme court…. 🙁

    • “It wasn’t anything that anyone thought about back then.” JM
      REALLY ?? I think you thought about it a great deal to the point that you were hiding the evidence from the defense and destroying the evidence as the defense team was standing right there – setting it up to CYA in case any of this came to light in the future….So you have no right now to claim that no one was thinking about it back then bc you darn well knew about it and were hiding the exculpatory evidence – Brady Violation…..THIS WILL NEVER STAND !

    • You can not play hide and seek and then penalize the defense for not being able to find the evidence….it doesn’t work that way…..

  61. Changing his testimony is par for the course for Det Flores – gun shot first to gun shot last – it is quite a long record of changing testimony. He needs to be impeached and it IS RELEVANT !!

  70. I don’t understand why DT bothered calling him – they already KNOW he is perfectly willing to commit perjury. Should have called Schaffer and let HER tell the jury what happened that day, then leave it to JM to rebut with Flores – THEN JW could’ve put Flores on the ropes about mishandling evidence.

    • Yes, *where* is Schaffer??? Why not come and tell the jury what she told during that Hearing?

  71. Jen’s Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ 7s7 seconds ago

    Back in 10 minutes #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • I think it was an impromptu voire dire – DT called Flores because they THOUGHT they already knew what he would say, thought he’d stick to the story he’d already told. But of course he didn’t, so Jen asked for a brief recess to find out what Flores story du jour was going to be.

      That’s what I think that was.

  72. The Frog wants to talk about “horrific murder” huh? OK, LET’S!!! But this time, let’s make sure we all have the right definitions OK Froggy?

    Trying to defend yourself against a person whose bouts of rage are frightening even through his words in text messages, a person who has choked you to unconsciousness and has broken your finger, a person who has JUST threatened to kill you by saying” Fucking kill you bitch!” is called a SELF-DEFENSE crime.

    Trying to tamper with/suppress/destroy evidence, badgering witnesses, resorting to perjury and misconduct just to put an innocent womn on Death Row is called a MURDER!!

    Now, take a good look in the mirror Juanito, before opening your vile ignorant mouth. Make humanity a favor and STFU!!!

    • Bring up Dr. Horn’s original report that states there are 16 stab wounds and 13 cut wounds not 29 stab wounds. showing that there was indeed a fight.

    #jodiarias judge stephens told us last Friday she would issue ruling on shelving death penalty by today 930AM. Still waiting.

  74. I don;t see why they can’t make Martinez a witness, he has been testifying during the entire trial, Both parts.

  75. flores admitted under oath, on stand today that he committed perjury AND contamination of crime scene AND evidence tampering… what else does Judge need to rule mistrial?

    He says that there was protocol how to deal with crime scene then says he did know that he shouldn’t touch electronic devices and wait for forensics then he uses his pen to wake up pc and then says he never knew he wasn’t suppose to touch pc… Is he fucking kidding me????!

    JS: NO ruling on the motion to dismiss until Flores finishes his testimony so she can consider it #JodiArias

      • What is it that she does not get about the original 2008 copy of the hard drive having been hidden from the defense for years until just recently??? What doesn’t she get about Det Flores tampering with evidence at the scene and NOT reporting it? what doesn’t she get about more destruction of evidence a year later when Det Flores turned TA’s computer on and off ? THE STATE WAS IN FULL CONTROL OF THE EVIDENCE, THEY ARE ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR PRESERVING IT, PERIOD !!!! BRADY VIOLATION = OVERTURN OF VERDICT !!

    • My understanding is that if the judge rules ‘No’ to motion she has, Defense will ask if that is her “final and appealable order”; then the Defense will say they want the trial stopped (or it automatically stops) and they go talk to the Appellate Court.

  77. There is ample evidence to show prosecution is malicious, inept and incompetent as far as
    computer is concerned. Will the jury be able to connect the dots ? That is the question.
    I have my doubts.

  78. Nov 21st Porn Hearing

    10:53 MS never saw EF plug in a write-blocker before the computer was turned on. MS recalls JM stating that he had never seen so many photos of themselves. TA had a lot of photos of himself on his computer and JA had a lot of photos of herself on her computer. JM was looking for pornography; she recalls JM mentioning that. At this point, they already had the nude deleted photos from the camera in the washer.

    • OMFG! Not only did flores contaminate the crime scene but travis’s friends too? They changed the scene??? Wtf?

      • hey y’all – they contaminated it just by walking in there – hair, fingerprints, etc. Who’s to say it wasn’t one of them that kicked the shell casing onto the dried blood pool for example.

          • No -well, not from finding him on the 9th anyway. After five days – assuming TA died on the 4th as has been postulated – the ONLY place there might have been blood still damp or sticky enough for transfer would have been the big puddle on the carpet, because that was wet clear down to the subfloor and might have taken a long time to dry. But if the foot stepped in THAT blood, the transfer print(s) would have moved from the bedroom towards the bathroom. The single print that was found was right by the (walk-in) closet door moving away from the shower and towards the bedroom.

            And the only way a SINGLE print makes sense is that there were other prints that were cleaned up, and the person doing the cleanup just missed one.

    • Really?? There was no testimony from the roommates so how do we know they did anything to the crime scene ??? Det. Flores contaminated the evidence !!!

  112. They need to bring back Maria Schaffer to rebutt Det Flores stating that the DT plugged in the computer and turned it on. As I have said before this whole scenario with the first defense team being ushered in to examine the computer, etc. was a complete set up by the state to cover themselves in case any of the tampering/destruction/deletions of computer evidence ever came to light….they knew exactly what they were doing in 2009 and did it purposefully so that the computer evidence would be destroyed knowingly….the STATE IS RESPONSIBLE !!!

    • Worth noting that Jodi had already asked about having different defense counsel before June 19, 2009. Did the prosecution know they were on the way out?

        Trial Day 52 – April 24th, 2013

        Robert Brown (Mesa PD) – rebuttal witness – direct/cross/redirect

  123. One of the reasons Martinez rapid fires his questions is so the DT can’t write it all down and keep up.

  124. Would it be a good idea for the Defence to subpoena the roommates as witnesses, or is it pointless now?

    • We don’t know that they haven’t Daniela. No one knows who the fourteen witness are that the defense team says will not testify because they can’t do it without media.

  125. Evidence that Jodi and Travis accessed the computer to copy pictures that Jodi brought with her is key. If Jodi made a cd with pictures for Travis, like she testified, there was no intent to commit murder.

    • There are those on the other side who say that the very fact that she had the pictures with her proves she planned to see Travis on that trip.

      IMO, I think it’s likely that a photographer would carry her portfolio with her on some kind of storage device, CDs, memory card, whatever.

      • She said that she had been lugging the photos around with her for ages and finally had a chance to give them to him. She said that she took her camera with her everywhere; the CD was carried around with it.

      • Yes to make love and give him pictures. That does not sound like a mission of murder to me or any thinking person.

      • Why would she want to bring him pictures that could be traced to her if her visit was not innocent.

      • ^Trial Video – Page #2^ [at top of page]

        Trial Day 19 – Feb. 19, 2013 Part 3/3 33:15
        JA: I had CDs that he wanted, had been asking for for awhile. I kept forgetting to give to him; they were hanging out in my briefcase for months and months.
        KN: What were…are these music CDs, photo CDs; what are they?
        JA: They have pictures on them of our trips that we’ve taken together.
        ========
        TA sees that they are scratched and he’s irritated. When he tries to view one of them, he has trouble bringing up the drive and says that it has a virus. Jodi says that she can see the screen and it looks like bugs are eating it up. He becomes frustrated, grabs her and forces her into rough sex over the top of the desk.

        There was a virus, just as Jodi said; its presence triggered abuse from TA.

  127. I think JSS still thinks it is all about the porn and will SOMEHOW deem it irrelevant. I think the computer file tampering is completely lost on her.

  128. I am so far behind in this trial.
    I can’t understand why it has gone on this long knowing all of the lies and corruption from the state.
    I figure that they know who did this and I know and they know that it wasn’t Jodi.
    They just want it to linger on for some reason while they are still covering up for some one.
    The rest just doesn’t make sense.
    Someone said it would probably last until after Christmas.
    If it takes 6 more months to TELL the real murderers, just do it so Jodi can go home.
    This is so unfair and so unjust.
