Jodi Arias Retrial, Day #6 (10/30)

.
Day 6 finishes off another busy 3-day week for the AZ State Circus.

Kermit ended Tuesday’s proceedings by saying he had “no more evidence” as to the underlying circumstances of the crime. Really? I’m still waiting to see what real evidence he ever had in the first place.

So with the mitigation phase starting today, and several defense witnesses being called… hopefully we can carry on where we left off in this revenge-based, grossly overcharged & perjury-riddled self-defense case.

Click here to keep up with everything via Michael Kiefer’s live Twitter feed. Kick off @ 9.45 am MST.

  1. Twiddling thumbs waiting, I guess you’re all asleep. Its 10 pm Thursday 30 th for me, I am ahead.of Phoenix time. Should be a very interesting day ahead. Alas I have hospital appointments so I will be out of the loop for a few hours, I think I will be back at about 3 pm their time. So I will be late to the party. In the meantime how is every body? All fired up for the day ready to watch twitter. Ah the joys of technology. Oh well back to twiddling – la la la.

  2. Good morning from me too TEAM JODI !!!

    I will be working till late tonight so I’ll be back a couple of hours after the trial has started 🙁

    Since mitigation phase starts today let’s hope that Nurmi will be as good as he was the day before yesterday.

    Send all your positive energy to Jodi and her DT ♥ ♥

  3. ♥♥♥ For Our Jodi: “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13). My prayers of love and strength go out to Jodi and her dear sweet family! Feel our LOVE!!! ♥♥♥

  4. Hello everyone! I too hope that the Defense Team will be as powerful as it was on Day 5.

    • Scoopy says they’re starting 9:45 today – or maybe that’s just when she plans to get there.

      Seems like they’re always that late starting, anyway. Stephens usually dealing with other business when the tweeters get there.

  5. Gotta say:

    These “journalists” who are tweeting about this trial — they wouldn’t go on TV and complain about doing their jobs, they wouldn’t write columns complaining about doing their jobs. If they are being paid to go to court and tweet about this trial, they should NOT be using their TWEETS to be COMPLAiNING about DOING THEIR FREAKING JOBS!

    Okay, I feel better now.

    • Glad you said it! I think they forget they are being paid to do a job. Maybe Corinna could get a job helping them, she likes to tweet!

  6. Apparently the overflow room is packed and they are doing a lottery to get in. So says Scoopy.

    Nurmi is in a tapioca suit with a green white and brown striped tie. Still waiting.

    • Maria just escorted an elderly gentleman to the back table and he is now shaking hands with Nurmi. #JodiArias that was sweet

    Good morning from the #JodiArias trial. Judge Sherry Stephens is going through her morning calendar.

  11. Juan’s gathering what looks like statements from the family so maybe victim impacts will be first this morning

    • Say it ain’t SO! If that happens I’m gone! SMH Tanisha and her impact statement. walking away mumbling to myself……

      • I see a few upsides to this:

        WE DON’T HAVE TO WATCH them and their crocodile tears

        WE DON’T HAVE TO WATCH Morticia

        and

        If they give their ‘victims’ speeches first, JODI’s case won’t be dulled by their fake tears.

    We start the #JodiArias day with the traditional sidebar and white noise.

    • Dave Erickson @ericksonvision 37s37 seconds ago

      Jury hasn’t even arrived yet and already there’s a sidebar. #JodiArias

  16. Not surprising, the judge has allowed fox tv to have a still camera in the court, the judge can decide unilaterally about the cameras so it seems. supposedly this camera is pointed at jodi. so obnoxious.

  17. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 26s 26 seconds ago

    The #JodiArias jury just entered. Alexander’s sister Tanisha is making a victim impact statement. She is difficult to hear.

  18. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 37s 37 seconds ago

    Tanisha says that while she was growing up, Travis Alexander was “my best friend.” #JodiArias

  19. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 37s 37 seconds ago

    “Today I am 34 years old. I have outlived my older brother.” Tanisha cannot hold back tears. #JodiArias

      • I know that Tanisha’s a heavy drug user (or at least she used to do drugs) and she’s been to prison – a wild life!
        No wonder she looks so old.
        She has no integrity – a convicted felon!

    “When we found out Travis was dead, we did not have Travis to comfort us.” Says murder tore the family apart. Tanisha has PTSD. #JodiArias

      • LOL too! First thing that I thought of Visions of Tanisha bungee jumping!!!! Poor Thing. Who will she bum money off of now, oh wait. . .$$$$The Hughes. Nothing like good ole HUSH Money!

        • During her long weekend breaks from the trial. She shared pictures of her family adventures on FB.

  22. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 46s 46 seconds ago

    Tanisha says she is afraid of losing another family member, afraid of taking a shower. PTSD #JodiArias

    • Well she should be afraid. Who knows who will commit a mysterious suicide or have a ritual performed on them next? It won’t be Jodi’s fault though, we can guarantee that.

      • REALLY R. Love,
        If she’s saying because of Jodi, doesn’t she realize Jodi couldn’t get there?
        SO, who is she really afraid of???
        They know who killed Travis and they are still free. Better be afraid!!
        But, like you said, NOT Jodi!!
        Stupidest impact statement I’ve ever heard.

          • Fake, fake, fake!!!!!They’re trying to portray her like Norman Bates and poor Travis like Marion, in that shower scene. Puh-leez!

            So, if Tanisha’s afraid of taking a shower, she must really STINK!!! I feel sorry for the people who have to sit close to her at trial, ahahahahahaha!!!!

  23. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 36s 36 seconds ago

    Tanisha’s grief seems to reflect in the faces of the jurors. She shows a photo of Alexander and “The smile I love.” #JodiArias

  24. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 18s 19 seconds ago

    Alexander’s sister says she cannot get the death photos out of her head. #JodiArias “Travis was our strength and our motivation.”

    • They shouldn’t be in court then. . .but the jury would not get to see the drama they are performing would they? I bet Lifetime provided them with acting coaches!

      • REALLY, R. Love,
        They were there when she was convicted.
        Why did they choose to be in court and see them again?
        I wouldn’t.
        Give me a break.

        • Yep! I’ve said that a million times: if they can’t take it, if it’s too much for them they should NOT attend court and influence the jurors with their non-stop facial expressions, eye rolling and tears!

  28. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 35s 36 seconds ago

    Steven Alexander, Travis’ brother now takes stand. “I remember thinking that Travis was bullet proof.” #JodiArias “How much did he suffer?”

      • Said he would never know what Travis’s last words were? . . .” I’ll f*@king kill you Bi#ch!”
        Has he paid attention?

          • Back at you Maria ♥ By the way have you seen my evil twin running around with her head in her hands? She escaped yesterday and I have put out an “all points bulletin” for her capture!
            Height: 5’2″
            Weight: 115 lbs
            Age: Old enough to know better!
            Race: Very racy
            If you think you have come in contact with her or know her whereabouts approach with extreme caution.
            I will not be responsible for any off colored comment she might voice or any damage caused by her.

    “I cannot wait for this to end so we can get our lives back.” Steven Alexander in impact statement #JodiArias

    • (well, if you had agreed on a plea deal instead of seeking the DP you wouldn’t be there now would you, idiot!)

      • NOW, what are they going to do if Jodi doesn’t get the DP? How many trials would they like to have?
        I’m sure there will be another one after this.
        The bastards!

    • And there we have it. . .they just don’t get it. . .their lives will NEVER be the same again! Vengeance and bitter anger will not solve their problems. Seems they are always looking to put the blame somewhere else. They had major problems before this ever happened! IMHO.

        • Me 3!! Me 3!!!!

          Oh, and btw! I agree with all of you. Steven wants the family to move on with their lives???
          Well, guess what butt-munch? You SHOULD HAVE ACCEPTED THE f*cking plea deal YEARS AGO! If you want blood and push for the DP and this case to be brought into court, deal with the f*cking process!!

  31. Tanisha stated Travis was her best friend while crying. Granted, that is sad for her, but it DOES NOT erase the fact how Travis lived his life or how he treated Jodi!

    Steven is reading his brother’s blog on why his last year would be the best of his life. #JodiArias

  33. Michael Kiefer @michaelbkiefer · 28s 28 seconds ago

    Stephens is now reading a jury instruction that victim impact statements are not evidence. Victims not allowed to recommend sentence.

    • They sure have had MAJOR input into this trial!!! TAXPAYERS BETTER BE TAKING NOTES. . .THEY ARE LYING TO YOU!!! 🙄 Pass the coffee out!

    • I think that in ALL trials, not just this one, that victim impacts statements should only be given AFTER the penalty phase and sentencing are complete.
      I thought the practice of giving victim impact statements was a relatively new phenomenon.
      I thought the reason victim impact statements became a part of the trial process, was only for the purpose of providing catharsis for the loved ones of the victim, and it was a way in which the victim could directly address the accused so that catharsis could be attained.
      If victim impact statements do not occur until the entire trial process is over, then I think the law should be changed, because their effect taints the objectivity of the entire process.

  38. Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial 48s49 seconds ago
    Nurmi is standing and looking down at his mobile device. #JodiArias still seated with Willmott on the side.

  39. The ALEXANDERS need to put the BLAME for Travis’s murder where blame is due and it sure ISN’T on Jodi!!! They NEED to look at their OWN MORMON, LDS CHURCH!!! That is who they should be blaming!!! Put blame where blame is due!!! I AM SO SICK OF EVERYONE BLAMING JODI!!! THIS needs to STOP NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAKE UP, AZ!!!

    • OR they may put the blame where it can be proven it needs to go and that is on Travis Alexander himself. If he had not been the self involved, self gratifying, two faced, scammer and devious ABUSER that he was he would be alive today. When you get right down to it Jodi was the ONLY one he could actually be himself with. Jodi accepted all of his abuse and bad behavior because she loved him. She wanted to help him despite how he treated her. If he was alive today, his so called friends would all be gone by now!

      • That’s why the Alexander’swill never get over it.
        They know who the real killers are and the wrong person is being tried,
        but they don’t give a rat’s ass.
        I can’t believe these people. IF they really cared for Travis they would have wanted a real investigation, a real trial and the real persons convicted,
        Shows they just really care about being on TV and Jodi dead for something she didn’t do.

    Stephens trying to boot press. Does this mean #JodiArias was going to be next witness? Just a guess.

  57. I question the legality of Travis’s brother Steven saying in his impact statement: [ I’ m paraphrasing] …” stab after stab. Travis grabbing the knife to try to defend himself”
    [ any way_ I have to check the tweet to find out what the precise wording was, but my first reaction was that the brother’s statement amounted to his giving his own testimony of his own presumption of facts.
    Maybe I’ m wrong, but my first reaction was that to make such a statement should be considered illegal by the court?

      • I agree.
        This is exactly the same joke as the first one, with Jodi’s life on trial.
        They make me sick.
        I’m sure the judge let them in just for the Alexanders.
        She’s so biased,

        • That’s funny, I have seen where the Haters think the judge has been on Jodi’s side the whole time. LOL They are sad but amusing.

  65. I don’t think they’d be putting Jodi on the stand so soon…

    I am inclined to think they wouldn’t put her on the stand at all, just let her give allocution at the end (only be less nervous and more prepared than she was last time)

    I think this is all just about a witness they want to protect.

  66. Erickson’s quote from Chief Justice Burger

    Dave Erickson @ericksonvision · 35m 35 minutes ago
    “As we have repeatedly recognized, one of the important means of assuring a fair trial is that the process be open to neutral observers.”

  78. I watched the original trial with a mix of horror & fascination — to be honest with you. I’m not so sure anyone is innocent in this story. I do believe it was a love-gone-wrong type of deal – sadly – that ended in the gruesome death of a young man and the lady who had become so addicted to a very unusual and very twisted love-affair.

    I don’t believe US law would condemn a woman for finalizing a seriously ‘sick’ love relationship in the horrifying way that Jodi found herself compelled to do – finally come to terms with the unhealthy no-holds-barred experimentation by two young people – very immature nor worldy or sophisticated in the world of S&M or tortured love affairs. Sadly, they have both paid for their most extreme natures.

    I believe that an otherwise, lawful – unblemished – and generally – benign human behavior – previous to this horrendous crime must be taken into account. I don’t feel Jodi should be condemned to death. Put simply – hers was a crime of extreme passion – where reason & logic could no longer have their affect on her actions. She took it to the final level – and sadly she now will have to ‘pay’ for this extreme dalliance with the ‘darker’ side of love — and that is a shame for all concerned – including Travis.

    • IMO Jodi is guilty of only defending herself from an abusive attacker. . .nothing else. That is not a crime. Jodi should be free with time served. In fact she should have be acquitted. IMHO

    • I believe this is a second degree murder case, not premeditated. I believed Jodie s actions that
      day were spontaneous. How could she plan to have a knife fight with a strong man , twice her size?

      Something angered her and she blew. There is nothing in her background that suggests she is
      violent. In fact her relationships with former boyfriends were good.

      • IMHO, I’ve always believed that they have the wrong person.
        Nothing went right in a “socalled” investigation and I believe when Jodi said in the beginning she was innocent that she was and THEN feared for her family’s life.

    • And one more time: Jodi fought in self defense to save her life from an abuser! Self defense is not a crime! This case should never have been a DP case. I still deeply believe that Jodi was a scapegoat for some kind of ‘politics’ that went wrong.

  79. If we are still wondering about the witness, I always wanted to see a defense calibration authority witness, testify that this camera is not an approved calibration device to be used in this type of situation of life or death or imprisonment, for quality measurements. …The camera was never documented to have been calibrated in a calibrations lab (like measuring devices are calibrated in nuclear power plants) at any time, before 6/4/2008. …And, it’s accuracy could not be certified after it was determined broken by the police camera expert. …This whole case is totally dependent on the absolute accuracy of this camera, and I believe all the time-stamps should be thrown out, and possibly a whole new trial.

    • Now that is a significant bit of information and idea, WLOPEZ4TAA!!!
      So many of the JA supporters have had such great thoughts over the past years and it would be wise of a defense attorney to read these thoughts, perhaps even give them some credence.
      It has been exceedingly difficult not knowing what is going on at today’s events in the courtroom. I am, like many others, very grateful to all of you who are able to keep the rest of us informed.

      • Thanks Carol Handy, and I am not just whistling in the wind when I say that police have no proof that Alexander’s camera ever worked correctly, according to the online trial. …I worked at Entergy, Waterford 3, Nuclear Power Plant for 18 years, and in the calibrations lab for my last 3 years. …And, all test & measuring equipment used in nuclear power plants, in this country, has to be routinely calibrated & have a written procedure (documented). …Even ((brand new measuring devices)) like a cheap plastic case stop watch, or an inexpensive glass thermometer. …If a test device is used for quality measurements in the plant (for adjustments or just documentations), and if that device (((breaks))) or is out of calibration at or before the next calibration date, then possibly ALL the documentation work done in the plant (usually a 6 months period) has to be re-certified.
        …Jodi Ann Arias has been railroaded to an unjust conviction (IMO) and should be given a plead deal, to be released for time served.

    • And that is exactly why the Frog threw it on the ground in court to make sure it was good and broken.

          • I agree, R. Love. I think Martinez, or police lab under his direction, did something with the camera so the defense could never test it in the future, and then to cover up the tampering or damage, Martinez threw it or dropped it to cover up what they had done. Now, if the camera can’t be tested, Martinez will take the blame for the destruction and Judge Stephens will tell him: “It’s OK, Juan. We know you didn’t mean to do it.”

            BTW, were you on Twitter this morning? There was an R. Love that roasted Travis like a marshmallow over a hot fire. Sounded like you. LOL

            • Dang, no it wasn’t me. . .so Which one of you let out my evil twin????
              running to check closet. . .OMG……..mouth flies open. . .the closet is empty
              What? Who? Where? When? I’ve been so distracted with all of this!!!! She
              knows better than to leave . . .ball and chain are loose on the floor…….

        • Defense team had filed a motion back then but of course Judge Stephens denied it.

          • If you take pictures with your phone and the phone has run out of juice, it has to be recalibrated to get a proper date, right? In which case how does anyone know when those pictures were taken? And it seems I remember that Jodi was surprised about the pigtail picture when questioned in court.
            WLOPEZ4JAA you have opened a can of worms and a great can at that!!

            • Yes Carol Handy, and there was always some confusion as to the color of the camera data chip & if it was the same chip used the entire time or if the pics of the pigtails were from another time, from another chip. …And, did the police lab have a method of interpolation of the times (guess work), to fit their scenario & then superimposing clock times to reflect their scenario?? …Who is the police to police the police in this country??

      • Yep, and now it is broken, & broken again, by the prosecutor & can never be verified if it ever worked correctly. …So, if there was any possibility it could have been retested, Martinez made that impossible. …That is why I say that the JURY should be INSTRUCTED to disregard all the pictures showing any kind of time-stamp or reference to a time-stamp, or any kind of interpolation (guess work) to a time that things happened. …In other words throw out the entire camera evidence. …And, the jury MUST BELIEVE the only witness is Jodi (although in her FUGUE state of memory). …And, how she defended herself against a bodybuilder who just WOULD NOT let go of her clothing. …And, she had to cut away her clothing or cut away his mighty hand-grip. …Those are NOT defensive hand wounds, he stupidly grabbed the knife blade & she withdrew it from his hand(s) probably more than once, …same kind of wound is made, (IMO).

      • I don’t trust any of the photographic ‘evidence’ – chain of custody went haywire somewhere and it’s one more thing that should get thrown out on appeal.

        • I think Jennifer was good last time around. Nurmi and JS… not so much. I still think Nurmi’s statement that “9 days out of 10 I don’t like Jodi Arias” was a very bad idea. I know he was trying to say that a trial is not supposed to be about character judgement, but sadly we’ve learned it is. So that was not a wise thing to say to the jury.

          However, I liked Jennifer’s constant objections a lot. I felt she had real passion for the case.

  83. Troy Hayden @troyhaydenfox10 2m2 minutes ago

    Again, my thoughts. #JodiArias had a very tough time getting mitigation witnesses last trial. This may be only way she does. Going forward??

  84. Jeffrey Evan Gold @jeffgoldesq 2m2 minutes ago
    This #JodiArias procedure is not what a public trial means. If its a paid expert who wont say his opinion in public what does that say?

    • “What does that say?” WHAT DOES THAT SAY? It says that the witnesses are scared shitless of haters and death threats! And of course media frenzy bullies like yourself and your bff NAG!!!

    • Jeffrey — it means you should go fuck Troy Hayden in the ass again… convert yourselves to Mormon… then both go off & live happily ever after in a place far, far away.

      SJ
      Team Jodi

  85. I would not be surprised if the secret witness is someone that knew Travis, maybe even the entire gang of Mormon’s and PPL’ers.. Paul Huebl has stated on Twitter that this is a very important game changing witness. The person wants total secrecy because of the nutjobs. They will attack any and everyone that might help Jodi.

    • Maybe they have called up Joseph Smith after all. He and Travis were very close friends. Just saying . . . .

    • I was hoping the reason the mystery witness wants a closed courtroom is because it is someone that the Alexander family knows, or someone within the moron community that has come forward to help Jodi by supporting her, and telling what they know about Travis’ uh, preferences and thus going against the grain and the lynch mob. This would be why they want to remain anonymous because they are well aware of the mob that goes after anyone testifying on Jodi’s behalf, especially if that someone is supposed to be on Travis’ side of this equation . Someone out there, someone on THAT side, knows what Jodi has said is true. I’m praying that person comes forward.

      • Gus Searcey said that there was one such person. This was why he pleaded the fifth. I wonder could it be that person. Please GOD let it be someone who can verify the truth of Travis’s behaviour.

    OMG! Heads are exploding everywhere on the #JodiArias case! The conviction apparently is not set in stone! 🙂

  88. This is too funny…

    A hater just tried (and failed) to post this message:

    “Here’s hoping every one of you, has a family member murdered.”

    A real TA groupie, lol.

    • Did you expect anything different from a hater?

      They are pitiful -full of venom- human beings that will end up alone and bitter.

    • Dear troll,

      May ALL your daughter’s fingers be broken and may she be choked to death by her boyfriend! Cheers!

      • PS troll: Hopefullly, they will reinstate PIO Flores to investigate along with ME Horn by his side!!

    @tray24u1 No, they don’t. They are too invested in hate and blame.They could care less if a video was found showing someone else killed him!

  90. Paul Huebl reporting that “hater heads are exploding” on Twitter. Also writes “witness secrets will undo the conviction.” I tend to believe the first one more than #2 although I’d rather the second one to be true.

    • Ha me too coldcase53! Hmm what a messy crime scene that would be. . .just think of all those exploding heads everywhere in AZ plus all the way to Utah!

    • Oop, sorry, I see this was already reported. I was reading top to bottom or vice versa or upside down.

  91. Haters gonna hate!

    How wonderful would it be if the conviction were overturned. What a day that would be…

  92. I agree Lynn,
    Just hoping and believing that IS the only right thing to do, just
    makes me feel maybe there is SOME right again.
    This has been all wrong and Jodi’s had to suffer through their ignorance.
    Can you imagine how that would make Jodi feel, just knowing the complete calm
    after this hillacious storm.
    And finally have the real killer, that’s the only justice there can be.

    • That would be amazing. I would be so delighted to see her do well with her art/career, find a non-abusive non-pedo man and live a full and happy life.

      The crazy thing is that even if I were to believe it was a pre-meditated murder (I don’t), I would still think that Travis was a horrible person. His attraction to children, his warped sexual tastes, his double-life, constant lying and abusive behavior make him come off as a nasty piece of work. Seriously.

        • How can anyone spin him as a good guy with all the texts, IMs and evidence of deception? Oh yes, it’s because the Madonna-whore complex is alive and well in AZ.

  93. Here’s a quote from the latest opinion piece by Ms. Roberts at AZCentral – Roberts using it as proof that Stephens broke the law today, but IMO it only says there were grounds to seal the courtroom back in Feb of 2013.

    And ever since.

    For those who wonder: Rule 9.3 of the Rules of Criminal Procedure set out when a judge may lock the courtroom doors during a trial.

    “All proceedings shall be open to the public, including representatives of the news media, unless the court finds, upon application of the defendant, that an open proceeding presents a clear and present danger to the defendant’s right to a fair trial by an impartial jury.”

    Hmmmmmmmm???

  95. Pitchforks ‏@PitchforksPosts 3m3 minutes ago

    What’re odds @HLNTV haven’t been implicated some way in decision over #JodiArias #TrialLockout? Will @HLNonthecase also be silent tomorrow?

      • As much as I hate HLN, I checked and was surprised nothing.
        Here it was Forensic Files.
        They are usually all over this.
        I can’t help but believe it is someone that knows more and if they haven’t brought forth anyone or if the state knows better they are in deep.

  96. Looks like on Tuesday night Nancy showed a shot of Jodi in the courtroom, Also at the end of her show in remembering Soldiers, she also had Travis’s picture right afterwards showing him at his date of birth and the date of death, like she does in memory of the military.
    Is that Right???
    The next 2 nights nothing at all.
    I wish they would fire her and the rest of the assholes on HLN.

  97. I enjoyed reading every word today got to laugh at some of the comments nice to see things are taking a different direction for a change waiting to hear the words the jury will say one day

    THIS WOMAN IS INNOCENT WE CAN NOT DO WHAT YOU WANT US TO DO….. FREE HER NOW

    • As Matthew McConaughey would say “Well, alright alright alright”.

      These are the consequences of the media’s actions last year. When Nancy Grace, Vinnie Politan, Jane Valez Mitchell, Dr (?) Drew, Joey Jackson, Troy Hayden and many more weighed in on the hatred towards Jodi Arias and all defense witnesses, did they not know that this would fuel the masses?

      When death threats were sent to the witnesses making them back out of testifying for Jodi, that seemed to satisfy them, giving them yet another BOMBSHELL HEADLINE to work with for ratings sakes. They were a big influence on the viewers and yet not once did I hear them say: “Hey! Back off the witnesses” or “Do not threaten the witnesses” or ” Do not threaten Alyce LaViolette”. On the contrary, they initiated the hostility and powered the hate mob to do the same as they did. Monkey do as monkey sees!

      When Nancy Grace was threatened though, everyone went into shock mode preaching “How dare some lunatic send death threats to Nancy Grace!” POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK.

      Not all journalists are to blame here. Some still have integrity and moral values. Unfortunately, they got caught in the middle of the media ban. So instead of starting another rampage against Jodi Arias, Defense Team and Defense witnesses, they should seek for the responsible parties that brought the banning on to them.

      Rasna Admin – TEAM JODI

      • P.S. If the media thinks they are being treated unfairly, then please do tell us how Jodi Arias must feel. With all the misconduct, bias, tampering and threatening, do you think she got a FAIR TRIAL?

        So why don’t we call in a mistrial, acquit Jodi and call it a day. That is if you whiners are still requesting fair play.

  98. This guy really seems to be upset …..

  99. It’s really kinda weird the way mainstream media is ignoring the sealed courtroom. When I google it, all that comes up are the complaints of a couple of tweeters and the local Phoenix stations.

    • Maybe they are cowards of the worst kind, removing themselves when the truth starts coming out.

  100. ♥ Friday Funny:
    A dear friend sent this to me, I wanted to share with TEAM JODI! ((((((JODI)))))
    It requires a real deep thinker to grasp these most important facts of life. Points to Ponder
    Number 9 – Death is the number 1 killer in the world.
    Number 8 – Life is sexually transmitted.
    Number 7 – Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die.
    Number 6 – Men have two emotions: hungry and horny, and they can’t tell them apart. If you see a gleam in his eyes make him a sandwich.
    Number 5 – Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to use the internet and they won’t bother you for weeks, months, maybe years.
    Number 4 – Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in the hospital, dying of nothing.
    Number 3 – All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.
    Number 2 – In the 60’s, people took drugs to make the world weird. Now the world is weird, and people take antidepressants to make it normal.
    Number 1 – Life is like a jar of chilli chutney. What you enjoy today might burn your ass tomorrow.
    …and as someone recently said to me: Don’t worry about old age; it doesn’t last that long….

    My favorite is #3!

    • I like all of those humorous notes above. …I think I have one: …This guy was walking pass the Temple & looking a little depressed. …The Bishop walked up & asked him what was wrong? …And the man said that he got a note today from an angry husband & it said he was going to beat me up, if I did not stop sleeping with his wife. …And, the Bishop smiled & said: …my son, I have a lot of religious experience in my life and I recommend that you just stop. …The man still looking bewildered replied: …that is not so easy Bishop, because he did not sign his name, …or which wife ! !
