Jodi Arias Trial – Day 51

.

CLICK HERE FOR DAY 51 VIDEO RECORDING

With the motions filed last Sunday, and a good likelihood of Dr. Robert Geffner being introduced a surrebuttal witness for the defense, we are making good positive progress for sure.

Dr Geffner is a psychologist with 28 years of experience. He’s also the founder and president of the Family Violence and Sexual Assault Institute in San Diego and often speaks out against domestic violence.

Let’s see what this week brings as Jodi once again takes one step closer to victory, and the xtreme rebuttling begins.

  1. Full of Hope this morning. Good things on the horizon. I think I will spend my morning counteracting the hate on Amazon and BN.

  2. Good Morning! Is it true that JM has 9 rebuttal witnesses? If so, where did this info come from?

  3. 4th! I’m back 🙂 Someone ought to give the prosecutor Judas a valium.

    Oh no offence because like I am not sure how well she is liked (Sarah P) so I am not how the comparison will go but has anyone mentioned that Jennifer looks a bit like Sarah Palin–i think her name is?

    May not be the most appropriate place but sending all my love to my American friends on here and anyone affected by the recent tragadies. We are thinking of you all. X

      • One of them tried to insult me over twitter by saying I was related to her. She also said, and I $#!% you not, that I couldn’t “see the Forrest for the trees”

  4. As much as I dislike JM, Today I’m looking forward to Dr. Geffner’s testimony. I’m so glad someone so well respected can repair the damage that the JM’s so called expert witness caused, not to Jodi, but to their whole professional community.

    I’m of the idea that this chick actually helped Jodi’s case, even though her goal was to hurt her. lol

    • Hi Sil, I agree. I watched baby doc’s cross by JW again last night. After watching it again, I really think she inadvertently helped the defense, especially when she did not consider all of the scales and graphs and then couldn’t name any resources, books or journals.

      • wasn’t she though? She did not sound professional at all. She took every opportunity to talk shit about Jodi. That’s why I refuse to call her Dr. anything. She’s no Dr.

        • Calling her a Dr would be an honour and she is unworthy of this,that’s for sure.And you’re right;her ignorance and inexperience actually helped Jodi because hopefully there’s more than one person sitting on those jury chairs that have the brains to see it.

  5. Does anybody know that if Dr. Robert Geffner testifies in a surrebuttal whether or not Martinez will get to rebut his testimony? In other words, can a surrebuttal be rebuttaled or will the surrebuttal stand as the last testimony?

    • Oh i would imagine that they have to be able to “cross” the testimony. So yes, they will rebut this.

      JW will question, Pros will cross, JW will re-question.

      Then, the state will call a sur-sur-rebbuttle witness, this witness will testify that this case is a joke, that the judge is actually Andy Kaufman, and then naked clowns will leep out from under the benches singing “thriller” by Micheal Jackson.

    • Goodmorning everyone! !!! Thats a good question Linda. I hope not, I hope that JM can do his cross and that’s it. But idk, I had asked yesterday before the dr Gaffner info had come out if the defense was allowed to also have a rebuttal, then his information came out. Im praying today that the judge allows it. My understanding is that SHE has to allow it first and seeing hiw bias shes been through this whole thing worries me a little. Well we’ll see and im also hoping JM doesnt get another chance to bring another wanna be doc.

    • Surrebuttal, if allowed, is normally the last word in testimony. He does get to cross-examine the witnesses.

  6. Anyone else find it disheartening that nobody in the mainstream media outlets mentions Dr. Janeen Damarte’s lack of experience, and obvious dishonesty and incompetence? They all are saying that she is a major player and was successful in discrediting Dr. Samuels. They see her as a credible witness.
    I can’t speak for everyone here, but I thought her psychological assessment was so phoney I was laughing every time she opened her mouth. Every thing she said contradicted every other thing she said.

    So does it bother anyone else that this psychologist with 2 years experience as a licensed psychologist is given credibility while our witnesses seem to be being mocked?

    I thought she was transparent at best. I could smell fraud just looking at her.

    • Yeah of course they’re going to do that. They’ll find something bad to talk about this dr Gaffner too. I read fb ot0r YouTube has already started. Its so sad, these people cant step aside and let the doc’s and lawyers do what they do. I really hope something, a law or something come out of this and some of these people are held in responsible for trying to intimidate the defense witnesses.

    • Yep, she was a dud as far as I was concerned…lots of big words and no substance. It was so obvious that SHE was the one with the BIAS. I saw a little bit of hln and could not believe how they were singing her praises. Of course, that’s what they are paid to do. None of those HLNers have any real opinions based in reality. There was absolutely nothing credible about baby doc.

      I thought it was interesting that she didn’t take her exam to become licensed after getting or Masters or Phd.
      Wonder if she had to retake it in order to pass?

      • Yes, it is, indeed, interesting that she didn’t take the licensing exam immediately after getting her Ph.D. Usually, individuals who are well prepared by their university programs take the exam right away so that the information is fresh in their minds. If not well prepared, or not confident, they will often enroll in test preparation courses. This prep can take several months. She waited about a year, as I understand. It is entirely plausible that this long delay may have resulted from failing the exam the first time. Many clinicians have difficulty with the exam because they are not well prepared in research methodology and statistical analysis.

    • it`s just more of the same mainstream media crap. “highlighting,“ dr. dementeds inexperience and down points does not go with their plot line. the facts have nothing to do with what sells a story. i actually am very grateful, in a way, for the high levels of b.s. the through. if nasty disgrace was not so busy with her oversell and lies i would never have ended up here. if she had toned it down a little and just made it appear that she was giving me the facts, i would probably still be watching. CONFESSION: i was very busy and in a hard time in my life during the C.A. trial. i was only getting my information from NG and other mainstream media sources. i watched none of the trial except for the verdict and had my mind made up that CA was totally guilty and the jury would make the right decision and convict her. i was shocked when the verdict was read. but i do have a lot of faith in the jury system and said to myself, “self. 12 of you would see more than 1 of you and i guess they saw stuff you just didn`t see.“ and then i tuned into NG that night and saw how she behaved and i was shocked again. how could an american, a lawyer no less, put down a jury and say they were wrong and she KNEW what had happened to caylee. HTF could she possibly know more than the jury. can`t we just admit when we are wrong. i was wrong. so when the JA trial was starting up i thought i would try actually watching the trial and NG to see if maybe she was delivering the news just a little differently than what was really going down. WOW!!! i took notes on the first day to see what points vere news worth to me and than watched NG that night to see her talk about them. except she wouldn`t. she never touched on the important stuff and if she did it was dripping with sarcasm. i couldn`t take it. she helped me open my eyes to the truth, by her lying. just like dr. demented`s evil will be used for good. so i am truly sorry casey anthony if you are reading this. i hadn`t even looked at the evidence before i made my mind up. i was just another one of the brainwashed masses. please forgive me. and god bless SJ and everyone else here. this site has helped me so much. THANK YOU!!

      • lara, I posted something similar about a day ago. I just finished reading Jose Baez’ book about Casey. It made me so furious about what they did to her and to him. I can’t believe that man survived that trial. I also apologized to Casey because my conscience demanded it.

        I’m glad you’re here. We all love Jodi here.

      • Lara, I was the same with Casey Anthony. I was appalled that the Jury found her Not Guilty because, though I really wasn’t paying much attention to the trial, my understanding was that there was a ridiculous amount of evidence proving she was guilty. Through this trial I stumbled upon the caseyisinnocent.com page and read the facts of the case. I remembered hearing about the 84 chloroform related internet searches and the traces found in the trunk if the car and the reported smell. I didn’t realize that all of this was media hype, and as the site admins pointed out, all of that “evidence” was not evidence, just a bunch of bogus nonsense.

        The most powerful factor for me in Jodi’s case that I think relates to Casey Anthony in a way is when Jodi was asked why she did some of the things she did after Travis’ death, she said “I’ve never killed anyone before.” I thought that was very important. How can we presume to know how we ourselves would act in that situation. I agree with Dr. Samuels in that I myself would probably create an alternate reality to avoid dealing with my feelings. The same way I’m sure Casey Anthony didn’t know how to act because she had never lost a child before. There is no “How to behave manual” to teach us how we are supposed to handle tragedy. Sad thing is Casey Anthony is still a victim of the media to this day, and I imagine life won’t be so easy for Jodi when she is free.

        • Missed the response from Jodi in regards to her saying, “I’ve never killed someone before” and how she acted. That is so true, everyone deals with things differently. Same thing with dealing with a breakup, everyone deals with it in their own way. There is no “right” way.

      • you guys are really the best. it`s so nice not to be alone. i too have behaved oddly during a tragedy and had it used against me. there is no one way to react. disassociation is a very powerful tool for people in horrible circumstances. we can never judge a crazy reaction to a crazy situation.

    • And, JD said all that in a gossipy, bad-mouthy, cat-that-got-the-cream kinda way. SHE needs to grow up. She forgot she was TESTIFYING, instead she sat that like a mean high school girl, feeling ‘special’ about being chosen to render her ‘professional’ view. Shame on her, for not considering and taking her position, profession, and part in the trial more seriously. Watching her felt like she had a grudge to bear, a sorta female version of Abe the Whack-a-mole on Dr. Flu’s show. (Just when you think you go rid of him, there he is again…and again).

      • That’s exactly how I felt about her.. but I don’t know Abe! 😀 Dr Flu sounds fun!!!

        • Hey Heather,
          Don’t know abe? really? well, he’s the one who was rebuffed by JA and has been ALL over Dr. Flu’s show bad-mouthing JA. His reaction to JA always seems disproportional to his ‘I-only-went-out-with-her-once’ situation. Its over-the-top, bordering on rage, whenever he talks about her. (I say that he must’ve gotten his hand slapped big time by JA).

    • Don’t worry. At least some of the jury saw straight through her.

      It’s the jury that counts, not people watching half the trial on HLN.

  7. Goodmorning all!!!!

    Praying for Jodi today to have the strength to get through another long day of trial.
    I can not even imagine what she must be going through.

    JUSTICE FOR JODI THE REAL VICTIM!!!!!!!!!

  8. Rebuttal Witnesses:

    Walmart Employee
    Tesoro Employee
    Det Brown
    Hollie Mefford
    Jacob Mefford
    Shelf person

    I can’t remember who else right now

    • who are the Meffords?

      Was the shelf testimony allowed by the judge. If so that might end up being another surrebuttal issue.

        • Thanks SJ.

          That was about a bucket of pig slop. Never saw such gratuitous hogwash. I’d love to see those two on the stand.

          • Yes, and looking at the other witnesses on the list, I think Snow White & the 7 dwarfs would have been more effective!

            SJ
            Team Jodi

          • GRACE: You know what, what`s interesting, Jacob? I feel that all through life, God gives us big warnings, you know, big signs, if we can just have ears to hear and eyes to see.

            Ya did you hear NG, that God is telling you to shut your pie hole…

        • ”witchcraft”???Really?Because she was holding a candle??OMG,if he has the nerve to bring this up during testimony I’ll be laughing my ass off at him! If anything,it will be an insult to all true witches (male and female)out there and to witchcraft itself as a ‘religion’.

          • maria I love your picture!!

            I agree, neopagans and Wiccans SHOULD be pissed at the way HLN has been instrumental in insulting their religion.

            Neopaganism and Wicca are life affirming, positive religions that don’t rely on dominance based ideology.

            It’s ridiculous that Mormons get upset when their religion is being scrutinized in this case, but don’t seem to care when someone else’s beliefs are thrown under the bus.

            • Thanks MB!
              Exactly,if anything Wicca and Neopagan religions,even Witchcraft all share a deep respect for Mother Nature,wish no harm to anybody,promote nothing but good deeds,balance and peaceful co-existance of all living creatures on this planet and should NOT be identified with anything wicked/evil/satanic etc etc.People who claim any of the above are merely ignorant!

  9. Did anyone see NG last night? I just wanted to see if she was saying anything about the new Dr……Someone please help me here I might have missed understood her but she was reading Jodi’s journal from a year after TA’S DEATH….Did I hear right?

    • Yes, I think NG got hold of JA’s journals…I seem to remember her reading from them once before.

      • Kitty now what is really odd is the fact that Jodi was incarcerated a year after TA’s death…now how the heck could NG get a hold of them….she would have been in jail…….I could have been wrong in what she said… humm now the hearings is going….

        • Remember the defense filed a motion to get journals seized from her cell. The jail guys can pretty much take anything, and then of course the County Attorney claims they are public record and releases them when it suits JM’s purpose.

        • I know, I think that her journals were confiscated from jail for some reason. Wasn’t there a motion by the defense to get the journals from the pros? I have a vague memory of something like that happening. Then again , maybe I dreamed it! HA

          • ok,just to get this straight:if her journals were taken and the Pros has them,how on Earth do they end up at NG’s hands?Shouldnt the defense be all over it and file yet another motion for Prosecutorial misconduct?

          • A motion was filed to have the journals returned to Jodi (the ones that were confiscated).
            Willmott handed them to her one day in court so I assume they won

  10. good morning to all have to get my brother today from hospital where he has been for one week in icu hope i will not miss the trial a message for jodi stay strong we all care for you at this site and the ones that don’t are not here long thanks to the team that are good at screening for the kkk travis clan. Have a good day Im thinking positive for you never a dought that you did this you confessed to it 🙄 One day the ones involved will be discovered so hang in there .. 🙂

  11. sorry cindy I slept thru her shit miss her stealing ass that is stealing the saying that go on here at this site

    • tonya it seems as if you have had your hands full these days….been there and it’s a very good day when you can bring them home…praying for a speedy recovery for your bro…..

      • thanks cindy i have and it is just beginning now he is a drinker and has to get rid of the alchol he has in the house if he drinks again I will leave his as were he falls this is his 3rd time to the emergency room this one was his heart. but most of it is becase of his liver is half gone from drinking bear and wine and just drinkin. I stoped 20 yrs ago when it gave me heart burn and made me sick not worth it and you and everyone thank you for you kind words and support love you all 🙂 🙂 🙂

        • It’s very difficult to deal with. You have to distance yourself emotionally from his actions. In the end as hard as it is it is his life…..

        • tonya, my ex had liver damage through drink, he went yellow and was in hospital, it was 50/50 if he’d pull through but he as far as I know, has. If your brother doesn’t stop drinking it could be serious.. but the good news is that the liver repairs itself.

          My best wishes for him.

  12. The less it looks like a 1st or 2nd degree murder verdict for Jodi the more witnesses the state is digging up.
    It’s called desperation.

      • Boy, that is a fact. It’s pretty ridiculous. The fact that there are so many days when court isn’t in session doesn’t help plus we are coming up on vacation time for many people including the jurors. If they would have been sequestered this trial would have ended already.

    • And haters complain about the cost of this trial. 🙄

      Shit, If JM is as effective as these people seem to think he is, why has he failed to make his case? Seriously. He has not proven anything. If Jodi had not confessed, I feel he would not have been able to prove without reasonable doubt that she did it. I mean, even with the camera and Jodi’s palm print, his whole case would have been circumstantial, imo. He doesn’t even have the gun. So in fact, really, he has nothing.

      He has nothing proving premeditation. NOTHING.

      • Hear,hear!!
        JM has not proven premeditation and after he got that baby doc on the stand his whole ‘case’ looked even more laughable.omg…there are so many times that I wish that they jury would consist of the people on this site,brilliant minds having come together to assess and evaluate objectively a case-guess hoping that such a mind may be sitting amongst those jurors is the only alternative we have right now.

      • Oh, but don’t you know Sil, Martinez is a GENIUS who like rain man, is going to wait till the very end (2021?) to tie it all together and leave us speechless.

        How DARE you insult such a brilliant, well accomplished attorney. 😉

        But yea you’re right – if he were so damn effective, why wasn’t his case coherent and well constructed in the first place? Did he think media hype and public outrage would win it for him? Talk about laziness.

        • I believe he thinks HLN will win this case for him. He doesn’t realize that HLN is like a fairweather friend. They pump him up when they think he’s doing great, but every time he fucks up, like when he went after poor snow white, they downplay his mistakes and pretend it didn’t happen.

          Oh shit! I’ve just diagnosed HLN! 😯

  13. Looks like we’ve lost a bunch of people from here. Wonder what happened?

    Haven’t heard from the likes of Ashley (in SC), Bella, joujoubaby, sirlips, paige, gail conlon, and a bunch of others in days.

    Hopefully they haven’t fallen under the spell of the Darth Juan.

    • I don’t know that we have lost them Al but if you don’t have this site bookmarked it seems not to be an easy find on google any more from what I have been hearing.

      • Debbie, I think what the haters are doing is promoting their bogus sites by googling “Jodi Arias is Innocent” and then clicking on the links for *their* bogus sites.

        What that does, is that it tricks Google into thinking that their sites are more popular and so the search results will list them at the top. I just now googled “Jodi Arias is Innocent” and SJ’s site came up as the 8th choice.

        These people don’t have anything else to do, but come up with lame ways to attack Jodi. It’s kinda pathetic really.

        • Good GOD who thinks of this kind of shit??? Sabotaging websites…manipulating results???? I agree – it’s pathetic. They have nothing better to do with their time which is actually very sad.

    • Sirlips is around today and still hilarious. Bella went MIA after an especially bad weekend of Mormon discussion. Joujoubaby is also still in and out.

        • It was nice to have her around to help us understand, in an unbiased way, Mormon things. It must have been hard for her. There are some very interesting theories about how Mormonism may or may not have had some effect on the situation….she posted about how uncomfortable those things made her….and then faded off.

          If you are reading still Bella. Thank you for your insight.

          • Ditto to that, Jaz (and Bella). I really miss her. My opinions about how Mormonism affected the outcome of these events are bountiful, but I don’t think that LDS is any more or less valid an expression of faith than any other form. And I am a religious person. But to massacre a quote from one of my idols, extremism in defense of oppression IS a vice (double entendre intended). I don’t think that Bella would disagree with that, nor do I think that most (healthy) Mormons would either. I really think that what is so offensive is the toxic cocktail of Mormonism and multi level marketing.

    • hope they did not get attacked as I did when opening a site someone sent me had a virus on it distroyed my computer on my brothers now will not open anything that is why i was away i was to affraid to get on again but i have figured it out just dont open anything and ill be safe or i hope so but i do have to stockers that google said i had two spys but did not open to see who with the way nancy gets a hold of the things i have said here it is probable them HLN lets rename them KKK for they display there mentality towards a human being.

    • They probably have Juan fatigue. He’s reaching so much that his rebuttal witnesses just from the looks of it make this more of a circus. Then he gets mad the defense accuses him of using social media etc. this stuff with the gas cans has been beaten to death by Jodi haters and the two weirdos that appeared on TV talking about Travis and Jodi want money and attention. JM isn’t doing himself any favors.

    • Me? Turn to the dark side? Surely you jest. I had an important mission I was working on in the Degoba System

  14. Just saying…I bought a similar blue kerosene plastic can at Walmart some years ago to put water in…in the event my radiator needed more water so it wouldn’t overheat…I chose to buy the blue kerosene can for water because for me the blue color represented for water…note:I already had two small red gas cans for gas for the riding lawnmowers…

    Our SUV had a slow leak…I had it repaired…then me and kids planned a long distance vacation to Florida…and knowing that we would be on the interstate for many long hours…I continued to use the blue plastic can with water in it even after it was repaired…in the event that it started leaking again or running hot…I just didn’t trust that the repair job would hold out on this long trip with the engine staying hot for that long of a time…

  15. OMG The mouth-breathing Medford couple on the hater Drew show is gonna be witnesses for the pros! LOL!

    This is great news for the defense, all they have to do is show that clip with the wife holding hubby’s hand in a UFC death grip going on about how she knew Jodi was the type who would take a married man, LOL! Even if she WAS, not any of the pansy ass Chester-molester husbands in THAT circle, LOL!!

    The BEST part is where she told the part about S. Hughes yelling at Jodi for 15 minutes and Jodi’s reaction was to sit at their kitchen table silent and then leaving. I think that is GREAT evidence that shows she became “foggy” when she was yelled at, and that she never became violent or even defended herself!
    BRING IT JUANITA!!

    • Poor Jodi,imagine how humiliating it must have been,being yelled at for 15 minutes.But,then again she was used to being mistreated,TA surely did his best to ”train” her for that!!

      • When I read that, it made me truly angry. What gives anyone the right to humiliate someone like that? And you call yourself a Christian! 👿 I too felt bad for Jodi.

        Um, guys…are mormons Christians? 😳 And do they believe in God or just their prophet? just asking because I admit I’m somewhat ignorant about their religion. I’ve read a few things about them online, but only to find out how they got started.

  16. Damn it, where else can I watch live stream, anyone know? The AZ site says I have to pay now to watch.

  17. Good morning everyone! Welcome back Tonya! Glad to see you here 🙂 Truthseeker1111 Angel how are you?

    I’m here at work, got my coffee and I’ll be headed to a meeting at 9:30a errr. I’ll be missing an hour of this mornings trial though I’m hoping they start off late like usual 🙂

    Today is a good day people. Let’s stay positive and read positive affirmations for manifestations.

    • Good morning to you too meow…

      When I’m posting during the morning that means that work is slow…

      Yes…I feel a shift of something good that is about to happen…

  18. I hope, when all is said and done, that someone does a serious study and exposé of this epidemic of mass hysteria, much like that of the 1692 Salem Witch Trials.

    Here is how one of the theories about the Salem phenomena is described at the website http://www.ulm.edu/~eller/amlit/focus/defs/salem.htm:

    “Mass hysteria caused by an over zealous religious faith, all fueled by superstition, panic, and rumor. Tituba, a West Indian indentured servant, recently imported to a household in Salem, had been telling stories and folklore about demons and spells to several young girls who, in turn, spread the stories through the neighborhood. Such stories of witches and demons and spells to ward them off or attract them had always been in circulation, but under the influence of an “authority” like Tituba, they took root in the minds of some very impressionable adolescent girls and spread.”

    Perhaps someday someone will use similar words to describe this 21st Century witch hunt:

    “Mass hysteria caused by an over zealous and pre-determined verdict of guilty, all fueled by unproven accusations, hearsay, and rumor. HLN, a self-proclaimed “news network”, had been telling stories and folklore about stalking, tire slashing, doggie doors and other unproven acts of evil to their viewers who, in turn, spread the stories throughout social networks. Such stories of “boys will be boys” and women are basically evil beings (out to control men and make their lives miserable) had always been in circulation (see Genesis), but under the influence of an “authority” like HLN, they took root in the minds of some very angry impressionable people and spread.”

      • Thanks, MB. And thanks for this site. It I didn’t get a chance to see that there are actually some sane and reasonable people in this world, I would probably be overwhelmed and suicidal at this point.

  19. There should be quite a few places where you can watch the live stream. I have put it on my blog for a long time.

      • I’ve been posting the embed from AZ Central during the entire trial, so I have no trouble viewing the trial from my blog.

        • I used to click on the AZ Central too…but kept losing connection or an interruption in connection…and for some reason or another when I click on the wildabouttrial link…it just works better for me….and it has AZ Central on his screen…I can’t figure out why it work this way for me…just does…LOL…

    • If you read the transcripts of the meffords on nancy grace , he has a timeline that doesn’t add up , also at the end of his interview he says that he was glad Travis was bringing someone else because it meant Jodi wasn’t around, but Jodi was not around in the eyes of Travis friends because she was a secret. So his testimony would be blown to shreds by JW.

      • Also he says that he met her shortly after she met Travis in Vegas like a month after or something and that he immediately did not like her and said that to Travis, he got upset because they had dated, so that is a lie too

      • Good point Angela.

        How can he be “glad” to be away from Jodi, when Jodi was in the sidelines for over a year anyway? Or something like that.

        God these people are pitiful.

  20. Gosh I wonder if some of the jury is thinking
    Enough is Enough with all these witnesses

    • Could be.The jurors are real people,with careers and families,thye’re probably looking forward to get back to their normal life.

  21. Hi All! I’m hoping today is a good day.
    I have a question: Do you think by Mr. Nurmi asking that the lesser charges be added that he thinks, if the jury feels they have nothing else to choose from, that they will feel obligated to choose from SOMETHING because Jodi admits to the killing in self defense? I don’t understand why he would want “crime of passion” on there as it contradicts self defense…I think (?)… I didn’t have time to read through the morning thread…perhaps my question was answered already.

    • Al said something about that the lesser included charges are always put on the table during a death penalty trial via a Supreme court ruling.

      But yea, at least the jury will have more options to choose from.

    • They’ll have to go through the motion that was filed no? Would we see that or that we wont see?

    • LOL cindy jewell,
      …no doubt that it will start late and break for lunch soon after it starts. With all the hoopla about the cost of this trial, one would think that this judge would have her other cases reassigned so that this would be the ONLY case on her caseload…I get the impression the judge et al have had enough of this trial and never have given a shit about the integrity of this trial They (excluding the DT) treat this trial like it’s a waste of THEIR precious time.

  22. omg. I’m really nervous about seeing Juan Martinez.. I really hate that f*cking goblin.

  23. i’m looking into crime of passion
    good to have multiple monitors

    so far ,,,

    What is a Crime of Passion? Is it a Viable Legal Defense?

    below i’ll post the first two of six paragraph article

    We hear about crimes of passion all the time. A man walks in on his wife and her lover, then shoots them both in the head for their transgressions. A crime of passion is usually a murder or an assault that is precipitated by jealousy, an act that wasn’t planned (premeditated), but occurred for no other reason than pure emotional violence. In the past, many murderers have escaped murder charges or even prison because of this legal defense.

    The purpose for a crime of passion defense is to rule out one very important element of murder: premeditation. In order for an individual to be convicted of first- or second-degree murder, he or she must have had intent. In other words, the perpetrator decided that he wanted to kill the victim, planned how to do it, then executed his plan. If there is no intent, or premeditation, the charges must be dropped to manslaughter or some other lesser charge.

    But is a crime of passion a viable legal defense? Do juries actually buy the notion that a person committed serious assault or murder simply because he was enraged by jealousy? Absolutely. In fact, Texas is known as one —

    • Wes, like I asked above, doesn’t crime of passion contradict self defense?…seems odd that Nurmi would want this ADDED…???

      • I’m so confused as to why Nurmi would include Crime of Passion.Sure,it rules out premeditation but it’s not self defense either,right?So,why?Legal brains,plz some help?

        • http://www.azlaw4u.com/murder-homicide/

          at the website of a law firm in arizona

          AZ Murder & Homicide Attorneys

          Manslaughter occurs when someone’s reckless behavior kills another person. Recklessness is defined as knowingly endangering the lives of other people through irresponsible behavior. Manslaughter crimes often are crimes of passion that occur in the heat of the moment and are punishable as class 2 felony.

          it conflicts to some degree with other material i’ve found and posted here

          • another arizonan law firm

            http://arizonalawcenter.com/offenses/homicide-lawyer-az.html

            AZ Manslaughter Offenses —-

            Manslaughter can be defined in a similar fashion as vehicular manslaughter, in that it involves the defendant recklessly causing the death of another person. However, manslaughter can also be charged if the defendant committed second degree murder if the situation is seen as a crime of passion. This can also be the charge if the defendant is convicted of causing the death of an unborn child.

            Basically, manslaughter does not require specific intent to kill someone other than in the crime of passion situation. If a person is convicted of manslaughter in Arizona, it can carry a prison term of 5 – 10 years and can be augmented in an aggravated situation to 12.5 years in prison.

            like the rest of us here
            no knowledge of the defense’s strategies
            kn, jw and jodi

            i believe it doesn’t negate self defense which would be a complete justification or defense against all the charges including manslaughter

    • Hhhmmm… if its going to help Jodi get off, then im for it. Even though I’d like for them to stick with the self defense and the jury blv the defense and not premeditation.

      If they bring in crime of passion doesn’t it give the jury something else to come back with on a conviction instead of sticking with SD and if they blv that then they’ll come back with NOT GUILTY on premeditation.

    • thanks again wes…now I have a better understanding of the topic when I hear it discussed today…(smile) have a nice day too…

  24. Who will be up first today?
    If it’s JM i may have to take a xanax
    He gives me serious anxiety
    Something about him just spells out panic attack city!
    Oh and he’s probably the most f’in annoying person
    I have ever seen in my life!!!!!!

    Now two of #TravisAlexander’s siblings go to the hallway with #JodiArias prosecutor Juan Martinez

    Chris Williams ‏@chriswnews 1m

    Less than 2 rows of #JodiArias spectators today? That can’t be right. More waiting to get in? I didn’t look towards them on my way in today

  26. I posted a comment under dissecting the photographs early this morning and a couple people responded, but going to post about it again here in case that doesn’t get checked again. Martinez mentioned her wearing a camera strap in opening statements, and I asked if a camera strap was ever found. Someone wrote back that it was still in the box. Was this ever confirmed in trial? I missed some of the early testimony. That’s pretty significant for Jodi if it was.

    • Hi Ashley yes it was confirmed in the first couple of days of trial that the camera strap was still in the box unwrapped.

    • I recall a picture of the camera box which was on the floor beside the chair in his bedroom which shows the strap I believe. I am quite sure I saw this as part of the evidence, but not sure what witness. I will check some old testimony.

  27. So far there are only two rows of spectators for the trial today according to Chris Williams.

  28. WildAboutTrial ‏@WildAboutTrial 1m

    Nurmi and Willmott are headed into chambers now. #JodiArias

  29. I still don’t understand and I haven’t seen it explained anywhere why there isn’t trial on Friday’s but once that I know of. Also why wasn’t there trial yesterday? Didn’t this trial also takes 2 weeks off early on?
    What gives with that?
    Plus people getting sick and all the side shows that take up time.

    • I heard Vladimir Gagic say that on Friday in AZ the judges work on hearings and other work.

  30. I am not fond of most short men, Juan reminds me of my neighbour , he is a short little man too. They both cause me to feel anxious. I came home one day to find our fence moved off the property line. The police and city won’t do anything. It has been two years of ongoing intimidation , harrasment and noise.
    I hope that for Jodi’s sake she gets justice .

    • my dad was a short man I loved my dad he was the best dad I could have ever asked for.
      he was judge but more like the belvin perry one.

      • I know some men who are short and are lovely and kind and honest and sweet , but I have had more negative experiences with the shorter men than I do with taller men. Many that I know try too hard to prove their authority in ways that seem aggressive to me.

      • my great grandfather was a judge too…and he was short in stature…and the next two generations were judges too…and all of them were all short in stature…

        I’m short and I’m not a judge…LOL…

        Gotta love some of those judges…hugs n’kisses to all our relatives who are judges…

        • ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( 🙂 ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

    • Angela looks like your neighbor’s fence is encroaching on your property

      maybe google>>> neighbor fence encroach

  31. I don’t think Judge Sherry “The Puppet” Stephens will be doing many more criminal trial the way she’s mishandled this one.
    Juan “The Puppet Master” Martinez has made her look like a fangirl this entire trial.

    • Wow couldn’t have said it better myself she has run this trial poorly to say the very least and I’m being kind.

    • oh,boy when I read your post it makes me think of Richard Gear in Chicago,in that scene where he’s seen as the Puppet Master and Renee Zelweger as the puppet. I pray Martinez won’t win THIS case,though unlike R.Gear in the movie.

    • Joe, She probably made enough greasy money from this trial to retire to a lovely life of leisure. I can’t help but suspect, by the way she has been obviously biased in this trial, that she is not playing by the rules on purpose…My opinion, that’ all

  32. WildAboutTrial ‏@WildAboutTrial 6m
    Jodi is here with light blue top, medium umbrella bangs and glasses. Tan pantalones. #JodiArias

    what the heck are umbrella bangs or pantalones?

    • umbrella bangs? never heard it called like that before….

      But her usual bangs are straight down with a slight curve toward the face….like she used a curling iron or a round brush to make the bangs curl slightly toward her face…very attractive look for bangs for all girls of all ages…

        • she does not have let me see if I can remember his term…umbrella bangs…hmmm…

          Jodi has some wispy side bangs that are blended in with the sides of her hair…me’ knows about hair…

  33. Counsel and #JodiArias are still back in chambers. People are chatting and coughing while we wait.
    Wild About Trial

    • Oh, Christ! Whoever that *cougher* is, will someone please give him a Ricola! Or make him take it outside. His cough is distracting at times!

      lol

  34. I just read where a woman stated her husband put a picture of JM in her cell phone instead of his. Every time he calls or sends a text JM’s photo appears. I kept reading to see what ring tone she had, “Do you have a memory problem?” “Yes or No?” This is THE PROSECUTOR calling and you better pick up or I’ll tell the judge.”

    It makes me sick but at the same time it is laughable.

  35. To all the Fashionistas! 🙂

    WildAboutTrial‏@WildAboutTrial
    Nurmi is here in a dark suit with dark tie. He continues to eye me as I type out his wardrobe. He looks like a blues brother. #JodiArias

    • Deanna?Really?Deanna???
      I wont believe a word this poor girl(yes,yes,I feel for her as much as I feel for Jodi)is gonna say.Not because she’s a lier,or because she’s on the Pros side but because imho she was as BRAINWASHED and mentally ABYSED by Travis as Jodi was.Deanna was on and off with TA for 7 whole fuchinf years!To me this sound he was all over her,not letting her go,SENDING MIXED SIGNALS all over the place,holding onto her looking for yet another person to satisfy his emotional needs.She was called crazy,probably a stalker,and kept away from Jodi.Sounds familiar?

  36. Why is this memory card the only in the history of wet electronics to not be destroyed by exposure to water and then 5 days of sitting in a humid washer ?

  37. Good afternoon everyone! I hope you all had a nice weekend. Lovely weather here, I got alot of yardwork done, sore as hell today, but wanted to be all finished so I could watch the trial today. Had a very productive session with my shrink on Friday, then another with my therapist on Friday. Mental health and outdoor work…..good combo.:)
    @Bystander…..I just heard that as well.

    • Good afternoon Anna. Well at least everythings done!!! I also did ALL the household laundry this weekend so that it be out of the way by today. Lol

  38. WAT tweet…

    WildAboutTrial‏@WildAboutTrial1m
    Valerie just popped in and grabbed some legal pads from the bench and headed back into chambers. #JodiArias

  39. Did anyone hear the “voiceover” on the seal site. It was a man’s voice criticizing this site. He’s stopped now.

    • what was he saying?????
      I havent logged in since everyone was saying only the seal is showing.

      • He was saying if you ask any question that hints that Jodi might be guilty, you will be blocked. Also, he didn’t believe we were a large group of people – just a small group generating all the discussion. I think I may have just caught the tail end of it,

        • I don’t think it was anyone speaking inadvertently. He ended by saying something like: “Let me know what you think.”

        • Wah fucking wah, what part of “support site for Jodi” don’t these people understand?

          If they want to talk about how Jodi is guilty, they have a squillion other sites to do that in.

          Ugh. I can’t stand how entitled the haters feel to use this site as their personal platform.

  40. Just read on the States FB page that Deanna , Travis’ ex has been added to the rebuttal witness list.

        • Uuuuggghhh Noooooo!!! Wtf does she have to say?!!! She’s probably going to defend TA of course and say he’d never put his hands on her or said anything mean!!! Whatever, I hope JW has some qood questions for her.

          • As if she were even there when the killing took place.

            Her point of view is useless here.

  41. So, once again, we get to stare at the AZ State Seal.

    Anyone have an idea of why they might be in chambers?

    I swear, I am embarrassed for my home state…never starting on time!

  42. Well its April 23rd which is the feast day of St George! Lets hope the defense slays lots of dragons today!!!!!!lol

  43. 1m

    Counsel is back as well as #JodiArias and Mike B. Juan is headed to the side room with Flores. I think he is getting his next witnes

  44. Counsel is back as well as #JodiArias and Mike B. Juan is headed to the side room with Flores. I think he is getting his next witness.

  45. Nurmi has his reclination level set to 10 as we wait for the judge and the jury. Tune in now. #JodiArias

  46. Apparently Dave Hall was asked to leave the courtroom back in Jan because he was going to be called in as a witness by Nurmi. I’m wondering if Dave was intimidating Jodi because he never testified.

    • I think Nurmi gave him a subpoena to shut him up in the media. Prob never had any notion of calling him as a witness.

  47. Oh geez, here we go. How can this guy be a witness when he has been all over the media??

  48. Why, pray tell, does JM insist on pronouncing “Arias” as Adias” when Jodi pronounces it ARIAS!? Okay, so she is of Hispanic heritage but…really! Deny her existence…whatever

  49. Lets see if Juan yells at this fella about a “pyramid ” or “triangle “, as he did Gus Searcy.

  50. Can’t wait for the purpose of this. They were bf/gf then. So affection can’t be it.

    • I think he’s trying to confuse the jury as to whether jodi was a secret or not.

  51. Seriously?THIS video??
    What on Earth is this video gonna prove??

    Aw…look at baby Jodi crying…. 🙁

    • It really proves nothing, IMO. They are just trying to say that Jodie was NOT his little secret.

      • She wasnt when they were officially dating but later on she certainly became his dirty lil secret.

  52. Look at the video…Travis certainly LOVED being the CENTER of attention didn’t he? She probably heard his BORING story a billion times before…

  53. If JM is trying to prove she wasn’t a secret, it’s misleading.

    Jodi was a secret AFTER he broke up with her. All this happened in March-June 2007!

    • Exactly, Big deal she slept in his lap! She was TIRED! End of story. It was late for heavens sake!

      Maybe she was napping so she’d have some energy for him later, when he was in her room – while he was billing himself as Mr. Virgin!

      WHO CARES!

  54. Good Morning, Everyone! 😀

    I’m sorry, it seems likes I missed quite a bit. What is the point of this guy being on? I didn’t see anything of his testimony that goes to premeditation… or anything else. Am i missing something, here?

  55. Who is this guy, and what is his purpose for being there?

    I had to be on the phone and missed the beginning.

  56. Am I missing the point for JM calling this guy to the stand? They hugged and were affectionate during the time they were “officially” dating? ok

  57. I think they were only a secret in Mesa, not when they went on trips and to conferences etc.

    I’m not quite sure about this.

    • The problem is yes during the first few months an when they were actually dating
      he was nice to her in PUBLIC. Big deal. It was when they were not really dating
      but actually still having sex. I see a lot of off an on again with them so of course
      he would not be a JACK OFF in front of people. But he did hug an hold a drunk
      woman friend that embarrassed Jodi in front of people. All Travis’s friends are
      going to LIE I do believe that the PPL/LEGAL SHIELD members via Mormon/LDS
      are stuck together like Glue !

  58. Being a little overweight myself I’m awfully hypocritical to say this, don’t hate me for being mean, but maybe she should try buying her clothes somewhere else.

  59. Wouldn’t Walmart have surveillance camera’s of customers coming and going the day in question? I would think so and maybe they were reviewed and Jodi was actually seen?? This seems silly.

    • I was told yesterday by a person who works for walmart is that they have tapes of all transactions

    • yes they have surveillance cameras….. This is totally pointless……… so far. Didn’t her mom teach her how to dress for court.

  60. I would of thought they would of had a much higher up from Walmart to testitfy. Not this chick… who’s only been there five years now….

  61. so she is not a CSR at the front desk at Walmart…some of those CSR’s employees don’t generally follow the exact protocol that maybe Walmart wants them to do…it has happened to me…and I am sure it has happened to others…

    • You’d think that he would’ve found an actual CSR or even a store manager from the store where this happened that was working that day and not somebody who started working at Walmart after the day this all happened.

    • what she is saying does not necessarily hold true for every transaction that has been refunded at Walmart….she works in theft…she does not work as a CSR who sometimes has been known not to go into all those steps in giving a refund…

      And I can come up with a long list of things that some/not all Walmart employees don’t do that they are supposed to be doing…

      He’s a man…so probably he has never experienced a real life refund situation at Walmart…

    • We can’t be the only ones who know that. The jury has to contains somebody else who caught that

  62. Wow. Everywhere I’ve ever worked it was referred to as a SKU not SKEW like to BBQ with!

  63. Did the Walmart lady just say a SKU number is actually a “Skew” number? LOL.
    SKU is “Stock Keeping Unit.” It’s not a “skew” number. Is she trying to skew things toward the prosecution? I think she’s skewed up. Nurmi will handle it.

  64. I’m sure every member on the Jury knows or has experienced that Walmart protocol is the most liberal in the world.

    • It is SKU, pronounced skew. Juan shit is drawers when she got that wrong. Not much of an expert eh?

      • I know! I’ve never worked retail, and even I know that. No, Jeff, not much of an expert. Plus, she said, “there is human error”. lol

  65. I am embarrassed for Juan, he keeps trying to skew the facts in his favor. I always hear the mom from Carrie saying ” they’re all gonna laugh at you”. When he gets that way

    • there is a difference between a front desk employee and a front desk CSR person….and I have only dealt with just a front desk employee when I got a refund…occasionally they had to call a CSR over to help with the refund.

  66. So this witness is witless. She is dressed in Wal Marts finest. And talks like Wal Marts finest. She doesn’t know it is SKU?

    Again, Kermi is throwing his case.

  67. OMG it totally annoys me the way JM slowly walks up for an objection and looks over at the jury.

    • Me too they call it mugging the Jurors I hate it ! an I have seen Judges call lawyers up on that also
      before but this Judge she actually does the same thing sometimes? really shows how biased they
      are against Jodi an the Defense Team an it is on camera.

  68. The video of JA on TA’s lap, was a direct ‘help’ from HLN!!! On friday, NG or someone else was plugging this video on their program, and saying how much this video would help prove some point, also that the Prosc could call any new witness, if they had new info. This came from hln to jm and he says he does not watch tv! They’ve been trying to help him and he has been accepting all the help they’ve given him. This is a mob effort to ‘get’ JA. WOW.

    I wish someone would give KN/JW the segment from hln on friday to prove that jm did exactly what they hoped he would !!

  69. Ms. Walmart said that there is “human error”, but she’ll “say no”. LMAO. Oh, Nurmi or Willmott will ask her about “skew”, right?

  70. Who was commenting about their experience with returns @ WM?

    Is this WM *expert* 🙂 reciting a similar policy as what was commented about here yesterday?

  71. I can say that I’ve returned things to the automotive department, for an exchange of something, that they just let me go get what I wanted. That is where they sell the gas cans, at our store. As long as it was the same price or similar. Maybe our Walmart here is more lax, but on several occasions, I never had to sign anything, I just traded. SO did Jodi say she got cash back…I must of missed that day

    • I have too on Automotive also wrong size filter etc exchanged no paper work at all.

  72. Ms Walmart is squinting. She better stop by WM’s eye glass department and get a pair

  73. Oh geez, he is REALLY stretching! Is he going to go through EVERY fucking register in the place??

  74. She couldn’t find a top with sleeves? Not to body-shame, but she could not have chosen a worse cut for her body.

  75. “I wanted to comment on the WalMart return of the gas can situation. My mother was a manager at Wal Mart for many years. Until recently like the last two years or so If you returned an Item to Wal Mart and the barcode was not visible or if the tag was damaged or the barcode wouldnt scan they put in a general code for the item. So it necessarily would not show up as a gas can it would be the department it was ins number and as for the fact the receipt didn’t have a mark on it for the return maybe she could find the receipt in her purse at the time and because the item was under $15 she still would of gotten cash based on the return practices at that time.”

    • exactly…similar situation happened to me…so they didn’t follow their protocol…LOL…

    • I recall someone from this forum actually bought something then went to return it at another store; the situation was similar to what you said. Does anyone else recall who did this?

    • So..as of yet we have 1 return to the entire day? Are we supposed to believe that? Ha!

  76. OK, most people return at Customer Service. He is NOT going to bring up that register – you all watch!

  77. FROM AN HLN FACEBOOK-SITE:

    See the entire Defense table squirm?? Oh Yeah.. this is the part of the trial I like. It’s the part where Juan says ‘You’re screwed!!”

    Huh?

  78. So not much seems to have been returned that day?

    Wow, anytime I’ve returned to WM there’s lots of folks lined up? What am I missing?

  79. I think I missed something. they are looking at returns for June 3rd only. I don’t remember Jodi stating she returned it on that specific day? Anybody know for sure?

    • Yes! She’s a demarte follower. DM had that also. Drove me crazy! And DM was supposed to be all educated

    • NG needs to part with her beloved barrette, and lend it to the prosc team to hand out to each Prosc witnesses to stick in their hair, before they take the stand.

      • Intro,

        BOMBSHELL!! That’s why NG has the new do. As we speak, NG’s beloved barrette’s are working their way to the pros team 🙂

        • Like everything else they’ve been ‘passing’ on with big, broad hints to the prosc team. Eg. Today’s TA/JA lap video.

  80. In the grand scheme of things, this shows that either Jodi lied in her testimony about returning the gas cans or that an employee at Walmart didn’t do their job right. All in all not a big deal.
    I’ve also learned more about Walmart returns that I ever wanted to know.

  81. That watch can only be refunded at the jewelry counter….been there done that…

  82. Chances are if they can just a single return for that day in that whole store, then something’s up with the cashiers and that goes more to help Jodi because of the fact that most walmarts have returns multiple times a day and I don’t see how this one would be any different and that maybe returns were handled in a different manner than they are currently there.

  83. Juan is not doing HLN any favors here. Why then pursue this line of questioning? No, I don’t have any clue. That’s why I’m asking.

  84. lmao!!! this is so retarded. we all know how walmart and its employees follow their protocol’s to a tee…hahaha

  85. I wonder if Wal Mart is billing the state for their cost of responding to this trip down this particular rabbit hole.

  86. I have never been to a Walmart that had 95 registers.
    Where I shop there is only ONE place to do returns and that is at the CS desk, NOT at a check out register.

  87. Holy shit…..I swear I almost feel sorry for this girl. To actually SPELL out S-K-E-W…the jury, or at least some of them, have got to be laughing to themselves. I bet JM is thinking, “Why in the hell didn’t I ask her that question before she took the stand”……I have never heard of anyone ion retail think it is SKEW, let alone somoene in retail for 5 years. LOL.

    • And she went through all the specific returns manually…..which “took her a very long time”, she had to add. Was she looking for “kerosene cans”, “gasoline cans”, or the SKU number. If the SKU number she was probably getting cross eyed trying to read all the individual numbers and could very possibly missed it. But I am not getting why Nurmi had no questions for her.

    • For this to have worked for the defense…they would need to find one of these Walmart front desk employee’s that agreed that they have given a refund without following the protocol…and all hell would let loose for the employee…they would be fired…

      • what was the answer? Because if that sticker fell off the bottom there wouldn’t be a sku on the can

        • I don’t recall JM asking if the sku number is also on the gas can and do they match to the receipt when issuing a refund?

    • Probably because it was a ridiculous point that is not to be taken seriously…

      😎

    • because the defense knows that Jaun f*ed up with this witness because they know he’s pushed it to far with how returns work. EVERYONE has returned stuff there. It all depends on how much that person who works there is feeling that day. You might get cash back for something that is 10.28 w/out a receipt and the next day you might get hassled over four dollars and some change. If the defense got up there and harped we would look like we are over exaggerating. they did good. jaun is making an ass of himself all on his own he doesn’t need any help.

  88. Why would Jodi make this up? That makes zero sense – or did she return it to a different store and thought it was this one?

  89. OK, so we’ve established that since the jettison of 5 and 11, the average juror is way smarter than both average HLN juror and pros witness.

  90. That was not good. AND, Jodi was sitting there with a “smirk” on her face while KN and JW had frowns on their faces.

    • My guess is she’s going to testify that the 3rd purchase on Jodi’s credit card was gas for the third gas can.

      • Put didn’t the Walmart chic say the gas can was returned or repurchased a week after the dates she researched? I doubt they would return a used gas can

  91. HI everyone!! I saw somethings mentioned last night and have a few things about today i would like oyur thoughts on!! First i hope everyone knows to be a medical examiner or coroner you DO NOT have to be licensed. yeah ! there is a whole documentary on netflix and sometimes PBS called FRONTLINE: Post Mortem. That being said everything the medical examiner said can be called in to question . seriously watch the documentary. and it is put out by PBS so it is from a very credible source. It will actually make you sick. because Jaun is misleading the jury by letting them believe the person is somehow an expert. ok about this walmart crap. Jaun is on a very slippery slope here. Everyone of these jurors have shopped at walmart and know you can get cash back if you purchase stuff on a debt . And you will get cash back if you do not a receipt if the purchase is 10 dollars or less. I know because i worked at walmart for 2 years in almost every department but auto. So Jaun can only push this so far before the jurory knows he’s full of shit. Let’s see if he shots himself in the foot with this crap. Your thoughts.

    • that one juror maybe juror 6 which some feel is the jury foreman…he sounds like he is aware that is the case here…if he heard what I heard…then he will assume that it is possible to get that refund without the sku…

    • Krista, I dont know why the defense didn’t question her on this. SHE even mentioned something about human error when JM started questioning her. WTF WHY WOULDN’T THE DEFENSE TAKE A SHOT??? Whatare they ththinking? ??

      • I would assume they are thinking that the jury is not that gullible to think ANYONE who works at Walmart is “on the ball”. This woman had to manually look through hundreds of returns and could have easily missed it. There’s your human error right there.

  92. JM best not be yelling at this witness she looks like she could be the %$%& out of him. lol

  93. Is it wrong of me to be more fascinated by her arms than her testimony? I think I may have to go to San Antonio and get some workout tips. Whatever she days, it works!

  94. The fact that defense asked no questions to the Walmart employee did surprise me a little. Could it be that they will call a ‘rebuttal’ witness to her?

  95. And HOW does this go toward premeditation…??? Jodi wasn’t HIDING anything! If she wanted to get away with something she would have used her cash tips and used her own car and NOT visited ANYONE… She would have driven to TA’s home, murdered him and then went home…
    This is a stupid waste of time.

    • Dorothy, I thought the same things. Perhaps that is why defense had no questions for the Walmart girl; because they will bring up all these points in closing?

    • No that is a nice guy that is on Jodi’s side he is talking about the Travis Supporters
      that throw out the death threats for Jodi etc. he is telling that one person to come
      to this site for support is what that is all about.

    • I think they mean the cheap knock off site that mimics the name of this site.

      Or, they are purposefully confusing the two to make us look bad.

      Either way, whoever comes here will know that we don’t do death threats to anyone, especially not Jodi.

  96. I still don’t get what JM is trying to accomplish with the gas cans and all this nonsense. I don’t think it proves premeditation at all.

    • Do yiu think this is why the defense didn’t ask the Walmart girl any questions? ?? They didn’t even bother and THATS BOTHERING MEEEE!!!

      • I wondered if maybe they didn’t ask any questions because they didn’t want to make it more memorable for the jurors? All relevance aside, if they talk about it more, it will be more memorable? I am just guessing here.

  97. Isn’t this bad for Jodie if they have no returns, and Jodie mentioned this return the last minute in her testimony, about returning Gas Cans or kerosene etc. I hope the defense is on top of this since it will play into JMs accusation that Jodie lied under oath.

    • Olivero, I know, its really bothering me! Why didn’t the defense bother asking Walmart girl questions? She even mentioned something about human error in the beginning of JM questioning. Why wouldn’t Nurmi take a shot, do they have something that they feel like it be useless to ask her ANYTHING? ??

      • JM
        is trying to prove PERJURY they have NO questions???????????? If you go back and look at his questioning he accuses Jodi of Lying I have to say why did she(jodie) bring this up her Attorneys were not prepared.

      • truthseeker, Last week I watched some old footage and noticed his face looked thinner too.

        I felt JW looked concerned this morning. 🙁

        I love the suit she is wearing today. It’s very cute on her

  98. Also, I’m not sure if this makes sense, but:
    Jodi was still driving her rental, right? Is it possible she did a few transactions because she wasn’t sure how full the tank was? I’ve done it myself before in a car I was unfamiliar with- 2 transactions at 1 pump because I wasn’t sure if it was half full, 3/4, etc.

    • Rachel,I still do it with my very own car which I’ve had for 8 years now.It’s just a habit,I never want to be out of gas because it almost happened to me once while on a national roadway where there wasnt a gas station and had I stayed completely out of gas the only alternative I’d have would be to step out and push,sth you dont do especially at night

      • I don’t think it is a far-fetched thing to do at all. Especially if I was driving through the desert, I would want to make sure I had as much gas as possible should anything happen to me/my car/whatever.

  99. Perhaps someone can explain to fuckhead Juan that a person trying to hide their trail would use cash.

  100. Defense is trying to prove that if she wanted to hide it she could have bought it with cash.

  101. Lost my feed, but I’m guessing I’m not missing much. Gives me time to reflect on the last witness, who thinks that pretty girls can’t get things returned for cash without “skew” numbers.

    • Because if she was trying to hide her trail using different transactions for the car or gas tanks then she could have used cash.

      • She only needed to hide her gas purchases in Arizona, hence the 3 filled gas cans. She paid with a card in CA and UT hoping to establish that she was ONLY in those states. It would’ve worked had she been successful in deleting the pictures, but they didn’t stay deleted.

        • But she filled up the gas cans in Utah after she left. I’m confused!

    • That if you pay with cash there is nothing that shows who purchased it like with credit it shows your card number on the receipt. So someone trying to hide their tracks would likely make purchases with cash.

    • Cash is anonymous…someone planning a murder would WANT to remain anonymous…no paper trail.

    • Well not that she lied, I thk that she couldve taken it back. The employee could’ve done the return different,whwhat I don’t get is, WHY Nurmi didnt ask if it was possible? !

      • RIGHT! We have to be honest her Arms are Not the Issue. Did Jodie lie about this? why didn’t her Attorneys question the witness? Why did Jodie bring this up on her own accord. Her Attorney was not prepared for this. Its obvious that this may be a problem. The jury did ask the right questions and Nurmi did not counter attack. I think Jodi has a bad habit of adding things that are a not necessary and only hurt her its very stupid.

    • Jodi said she topped off her tank or said she MAY have topped off her tank with the extra

    • No, he proved she bought approx. 25 gal of gas – if the pumps set accurately. I can squeeze about into my Ford (15g tank) about 18gals if the tank is real low + 5g can + 5g can = 23 gal. Since we’ve all heard of gas stations getting fined not being set correctly as to allow the owners to skim a little extra out of the customer I don’t see a problem with JA’s gas purchases. Now if it showed 30+ gallons that might be something…but not 25.

  102. Maybe someone can clarify for me…. if she bought this in Utah, what does it have to do with her being in Arizona? I thought the whole point of the gas cans was so she wouldn’t have to get gas in Arizona, but in Utah, what difference would it make – since that was supposed to be her alibi anyway?

    • The Travis supporters were saying it matters because if Jodi did not really
      return the gas/Kerosine can then she lied to the Jurors an she said she
      was telling the whole truth while on the stand.

      An they hope that means her whole testimony would be impeached then is
      how I understand them so I am assuming JM hopes that also?

      • That would be my guess.It doesnt show premediattion,he’s trying to impeach her testimony.Give a blow to her credibility.Which,by the way,is what he’s been trying to do all along.

      • Rhonda
        that is it he wanted to point out she lied under oath that was his purpose, and as I stated she added this on her own.

    • Jodi got 2 cans from Darryl, bought a 3rd at walmart, said she returned it. JM says she lied, never returned it, and in fact used all 3 cans to get gas. What I don’t get, is if I understand correctly, she filled them up in Utah… why bother then? If the cans were to avoid getting gas in Arizona, why would she use them in Utah? I’m confused.

      • But that means nothing to the prosecution’s suggestion that it shows premeditation if the gas was purchased in Utah… AFTER she had killed him and left Arizona. Right? If I’m missing something, someone please fill me in!

    • She basically said it couldn’t happen. BUT, I can tell you that it DOES happen. I worked retail for many years and have rung things in when something didn’t have a SKU.

  103. I wonder if any of the jurors will go buy something at WM and take off the SKU and return for refund to see if the WM employee does it.

    I’ve done this with many things in the past and more specifically fishing polls that I have purchased and the eyelets had broken.

    I have no idea what they used as the SKU.

  104. Michael Kiefer ‏@michaelbkiefer 2m

    … if we get past the sidebar. My guess is that this was a surprise and defense didn’t get a chance to interview Reed first. Let’s see.

  105. Why is Martinez bring in witnesses? ??? I thought the state rested, why does he bring in witnesses now and he didn’t do it BEFORE? ??

    • LC its called the Rebuttal – they get one last chance to rebut any testimony that the defense put on

  106. This is hardly relevant, but my evil co office person is gone… why cant i get a live feed? WHY is the screen black and can someone send me a good link? HELP lol

    • I think Deana is lying. When she starts getting asked if he yelled at her or was abusive towards her, her eyelids start fluttering fast., then she denies it.

    • It was just a friendship as far as I can make out–they weren’t intimate at all. Big difference. I expected her to be pretty.

    • I think Deanna was being used too…
      I dont think Travis was in it for her…beauty.

      I’m trying to be nice here!

      • M. same here.
        She is a bit homely.
        Nice girl i’m sure, but not in Jodi’s league in looks.

        • someone correct me if i am wrong but isn’t this reed woman the ex that ta told ja to avoid when everyone was coming over to his home for a ward whatever. he said she was very jealous,she is the one right? that name stood out to me and i connected it to that night, and you are right he used her, only for what he could get out of her NOT sexually. she is not anywhere near jodi’s league of beauty. I still don’t know what ja saw in ta.

      • Someone said once though those type of women give the best bj’s!
        an that is not sex in some of the younger Mormon/LDS views.

    • well just to be fair here,if you look at her FB photos she certainly looked better back then.Maybe his death affected her emotionally too much leading to her neglecting her physical appearance

      • I don’t make it a policy to poke fun at other people’s looks, especially women.

        It comes across as especially mean, petty, and sexist.

        • I agree its completely uncalled for she may have seen Travis differently Jodie’s relationship was sexual she seemed more like she had a friendship.

    • OMG! I was trying to be diplomatic in my post, but I actually like your approach much better! ahhahaha!

  107. Well, this would explain why TA went to date JA…this woman is not attractive at all!

    • In the photos of her an Travis together she was about 100 pounds lighter.
      An pretty but nothing like Jodi.

      • I feel sorry for her and don’t see why people are berating her looks lots of people are doing that to Jodie also with regard she looks like a mental patient its not called for she does not seem mean, He may have manipulated her also, but she does come across as articulate and intelligent, I don’t see how her testimony it hurts Jodie at all I think the receipts could hurt her more since JM wanted to prove she lied.

  108. Re-posting coz I feel strong about this.Plz tell me if you agree:
    ” Deanna?Really?Deanna???
    I wont believe a word this poor girl(yes,yes,I feel for her as much as I feel for Jodi)is gonna say.Not because she’s a liar,or because she’s on the Pros side but because imho she was as BRAINWASHED and mentally ABUSED by Travis as Jodi was.Deanna was on and off with TA for 7 whole fucking years!To me this sound he was all over her,not letting her go,SENDING MIXED SIGNALS all over the place,holding onto her looking for yet another person to satisfy his emotional needs.She was called crazy,probably a stalker,and kept away from Jodi.Sounds familiar?”

    • I agree with you on all of that Maria. Travis was a user an abuser does not have
      to be physically abusing he mentally used up women too. Giving them hope and
      then yanking it away. He was the most disgusting type of male that I despise in
      life. There are women out there like that. There must be a new breed of male now
      that thinks this type of behavior is A OK. An it is not.

  109. I guess it’s no longer a mystery why TA thought he’d won the wife lottery with Jodi.

    • I have to agree Jodi is the prettiest young lady out of all of them. An even
      compared to his friends wives she is way out of Travis’s league an she
      did not even know it. He deserved the boring Mormon Virgin is what he
      deserved but even they turned him away oh my!

      • hmmm…. I wonder why they all turned away from him, could it be that everyone really knew what kind of a sick freak he really was and he like Juan has/had a GOD complex. Ta’s buds are not fooling anyone when they talk about how good and righteous he was, the women in his life, they are the one’s that knew the real TRAVIS.

    • I think she proved Jodie lied and the defense had no response. I think if you view JM questions to Jodie it was to prove she committed perjury on the stand that she lied, Jodie never needed to provide that information so like the Holster she mentioned which was suddenly news to many including her Attorneys.
      She added i returned the 3rd Gas can. The defense had no rebuttal against it the woman is a nutral witness unlike the Baby DOC!

  110. Now deanna is on.
    I thought she would look… different.
    I Just did.
    After seeing Lisa, and Jodi… she dosent fit his other type.

  111. JM’S GAS CAN LAST CHANCE

    http://www.azcriminallawsexcrimes.com/violent-crimes/jodi-arias-has-the-government-proven-murder-one/

    On cross examination, the government has asked her number of questions regarding gas cans. This could be fruitful to the government’s allegation of premeditation, but the prosecution has not closed the loop on this point.

    In particular, my assumption is that there trying to prove Ms. Arias used gas cans to avoid being seen in Arizona at a gas station by either a witness or cameras. That, if true, would show planning of at least something. So why then didn’t Mr. Prosecutor flat out ask Mr. Arias if that was her intent? Instead, he avoided asking her that question because of one thing: fear. Mr. Prosecutor is afraid she will have an answer for the question and the jury will believe her. So he is instead doing what trial lawyers have been trained to do, save the ultimate question for closing argument when the other side has no chance to contradict your argument.

    Under all circumstances, such a approach is cowardly and craven. In the particular circumstance of this one in which a prosecutor’s job is not to win per se but act as a “minister of justice”, it is downright evil. When someone, anyone, as in Jodi Arias, is on trial for her life, she should be given every opportunity to directly answer all the government’s accusations in her own voice directly to the prosecutor’s face. It should then be up the jury to decide who to believe with all the facts before them. The jury should not be in the unfortunate position of deciding the fate of a person, as they are in
    now, without all the facts before them because the prosecutor was too afraid to ask the defendant the ultimate question.

    But assume for the sake of argument she was asked that question and did not have a good answer for it. What was she planning? Was she planning on killing him since the moment she asked to borrow the gas cans in May, or since she left for her trip from California? If she was planning on killing him before she left on her trip, then why did
    she stay with him for 8 hours and have sex with him on the same day? Does that really sound like a plan on murdering Travis Alexander? I don’t know, and even more more importantly, the government cannot answer these questions without speculation or
    guess work. The guesses may be reasonable and even probable, but that is not proof beyond a reasonable doubt, and certainly not proof enough to send Ms. Arias to death row.

    • The fact that she bought gas for cans in UT confirms her concern of running out of gas. If she only had them to pass through AZ without getting gas gets contradicted here.

      Plus she could have easily paid cash at any gas station without detection. They can’t check 1000 video cameras, which may or may not have even captured her.

  112. NOTICE: When she said no he did NOT and NO NEVER, body language says it ALL, shes nodding UP AND DOWN (YES)!!!! Now lets bring in those body language experts and see what they have to say about that?!

      • Hhaahaaa I thought that too! Shes one of those fb people that put up old good looking pictures of themselves! No wonder TA wasnt jealous about HER, he has NOTHING to be jealous about!!!

    • As I’ve previously HIGHLIGHTED (lol) she looked so much nicer back then.She sure gained a lot of weight after his death.I’m assuming she was devastated.

  113. Exskews me?
    ‘I was not ready for marriage, neither was he. SO therefore I decided to move on ‘???????

  114. I thought the can Jodi returned WASN’T a gas can (which is red). Wasn’t it a KEROSENE CAN (which is blue). And, the reason she returned it to Walmarts is because service stations are not allowed to put gasoline in a kerosene can (too dangerous).

    The Walmart woman who just testified should have been searching for the return of a blue kerosene can, not a red gas can. I thought we discussed this issue several times on this site.

    https://twitter.com/stark3923/status/325441155523289089/photo/1

      • Candie,

        If they had searched and found Jodi returned a blue kerosene can, wouldn’t that prove she wasn’t lying?

        Even the haters think it was a blue kerosene ca, not a red gas can.

        • Ya they keep saying the SKU is what was checked so it does not matter?
          But it is very possible to have the wrong SKU on a similar product that
          comes packaged from the shipper as in a box of blue cans but all marked
          with red SKU’s etc. I seen that happen many times in the warehousing
          part of Wal Mart.

          She could have really had 3 red cans but one had the wrong SKU on it.
          But the register they are saying would only check the SKU”S not the
          actual product returned that day.

      • And it IS called an “Sku”, not a “Skew”, which is what this witness said

    • Yes! I said this yesterday then some hater drove by and claimed that they’d check the number not the description.

      But today’s testimony seems to imply that they were checking for gas cans, not the particular number.

      It looked like a manual search on hard copy paperwork, so there was no “find” option. It could have been overlooked.

  115. ATTENTION HATER LURKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE FOLLOWING POST I TOOK OFF YOUR SITE.

    • It’s probably a watered down liberal arts degree which is a watered down version of maybe a degree in letters? I was thinking the same thing…

    • Bachelor of Arts degree. Yes, a bit of everything. I know, I have one! And she is NOT teaching. She said she is a classroom aid or something? Why didn’t she get a degree in education then? She’s a bit of a wind bag. Did she say if she and Alexander had a sexual relationship? I missed that. But seeing as he claimed, according to her, he was a virgin, I guess NOT?

      • Well, as “Randy” Travis (not the singer) said: there were a lot of things they could do as long as it didn’t involve vaginal sex.

    • Liberal arts or general studies means you did not choose to major in anything. I started as a liberal arts “major” but after first two years I then majored in English literature and a minor in “social sciences”.

  116. WHY would JM bring up the virgin thing when we all know he was NOT a virgin. DUH! His own brother said he was one on 48 hrs.

    • I hope KN brings up the differences in the relationship with Jodi vs Deanna the nice virgin girl he did not want to marry.

  117. How much is the PD’s office paying Juan Martinez to throw this case? Virgin? Really? Did he listen when JW made her opening statement?

    • I thought I heard him say Vaseline, but I’m no expert in the content of the sex tape

  118. Oh it’s okay for Deanna moved to be closer, then broke up, they remained friends……she must have BPD too based on DeMarte.

      • TA:”She’s crazy and obsessed with me,she just can’t get over the fact that we ‘re over,so better stay out of her way,Jodi”
        JA:”Omg,really?Oh,poor Travis.”

  119. Ok, maybe I missed it, did they discuss whether she and Travis had a sexual relationship?

  120. OK, I am confused by that line of questioning. JM didn’t prove anything.

    I really hope that the defense picks up on the teaching comment. I also find it interesting that they didn’t text.

    ALSO, it strikes me as STRANGE that the computer was a GIFT to Travis, yet the OWNER of the computer showed to be HER (remember the computer forensics guy?).

    • Very strange indeed – If she was the owner it wasn’t his. If it was a gift TA would surely want it registered in his name .. imo

  121. deanna reid
    why didn’t TA beat her ?
    was she a mormon ?
    did she have a family with male members, who would lay a beating on him, if he hit her ?

  122. Oh, oh, she switched jobs add that to remaining friends with TA she is fitting more and more into tot doc’s BPD.

  123. Leaving the impression he was a virgin.

    But you never heard him say he was a virgin…..wtf

  124. okay. I can tell you that TA would have never married Deanne.

    She’s not a bad looking woman, but to me it seems like TA was conceited and would have looked for a wife with a higher level of hotness. He seems that shallow to me. And anyway, he knew he had her in the bag. But Jodi, Jodi was slipping away from him and he’d never had anyone as pretty and as talented as her in his life, so yeah, he would go ballistic on her! Plus, I think he had some anger issues about the fact that Mimi was not interested in him. So after Jodi left him, where was he gonna go? Back to Deanna?

    • AN Lisa also turned him down for marriage. So that is why I think Travis
      was the one being rejected in the end there not Jodi. Jodi had Ryan on
      the radar an was letting Travis go also this would be hard on a man like
      Travis with the BIG EGO. On the recording also he is very confident about
      his Ego with sex as in” I pace myself” saying he is a STUD. Which I
      highly doubt men that act like that are usually horrible in bed. Due to they
      have had women like Jodi saying they were the best etc. feed their
      ego’s.

      A lot of people want to keep thinking Jodi was the one being rejected but
      I truly believe it was Travis getting left behind an he did not like that it hurt
      his BIG FAT EGO. That last sexcapade I keep thinking was going to be the
      last one he talked her into it she felt sorry for him because Mimi said she
      did not want too go to Cancun as bf an gf but “just friends” that had to hurt.

      Jodi kept in contact with all old bf’s. Must be the age group myself when it
      is done I am done no contact no nothing. Now if you have children that is
      different but singles have no reason to keep a friendship with a user an
      abuser an cheater what kind of friend is that too keep in life. I don’t get it?
      But I know some do it.

    • I think from the fact he left his Dog to her he may have respected her more then Jodie so they may have had a different relationship, and this woman seems nice to me.

    • Right Sil good points all around.

      He was coming up on 30, where he’d have to stop hanging out with the kiddies in the singles ward. He’d have to find someone around his own age to marry.

      • I don’t know why but that disturbs me that in those wards they have
        18 an 19 year old VIRGINS an a 30 year old male is hunting them
        for marriage.

  125. My vid from the AZ live site went black after the salad bar after the buff chick. But I see there was another witness; would anyone mind giving a recap of what happened (or is happening)? Thanks.

    • The next witness was Deanna Reid, an ex-girlfriend of Travis. JM asked questions like if Travis had ever cussed at her, called her mean names, hit her, etc. Deanna said no, our relationship wasn’t like that. I don’t know exactly what that is supposed to prove though. I mean, we have text messages written by Travis himself degrading Jodi and calling her all sorts of names.

      After JM was finished they went to the lunch recess so Nurmi or JW haven’t had a chance to ask Deanna questions yet.

  126. how come the prosecution is getting a second go round in presenting its prosecution case ?

    • This is their rebuttal case. This is to refute anything brought up on the Defense’s case in chief.

      • YEP, you’re right
        LATER, i’d realized what it was
        SO, now i suppose the defense, in addition to the expert they’re calling, will be bringing back ALYCE LAVIOLETTE in surrebuttal to explain with respect to deanna, that men might not be consistently violent to all women they are “friends” with, especially if such women as in the case of deanna had a mormon family made up of many large muscular male members, who’d lay a very serious beating on TA if he dared hit her
        SAMUELS will also need to be brought back in surrebuttal of tot doc the martian’s denial of his ptsd diagnosis and her alternative diagnosis
        YES, if i recall correctly the martian rejected his diagnosis; it wasn’t an additional diagnosis ?
        SO definitely samuels must be called back in surrebuttal.

        NOW have we got any of those women who sky hughes was aware of when she said she would forbid her sister from dating TA ?
        MUST be more than one !
        COME on Mormon Holimen send forth all these women who TA was beating on, in preparation for his eagerly anticipated polygamous future, his harem
        HAVE them tell their tales of abuse at the hands, and words, of TA here in phoenix

    • Because our system has rebuttal which I disagree with because they not only try to impeach the defense, they present new information that usually can’t be refuted by the Defense. The motion does show that the defense is asking for a sur-rebuttal to impeach tot doc. But of course, the judge hasn’t ruled yet.

    • I think they are trying to rebutt that Travis was not abusive. I think with Deanna he was just trying to show that Travis never lied about being a virgin he just let people think what they wanted to. I think that was the point of the first witness too….Travis was always loving to her….I saw it multiple times. WTF ever!

    • Maybe because the defense is being allowed to present another witness so they had to agree to allow this? I’m just guessing here.

  127. He may not have been violent with her because SHE hadn’t caught him masturbating to pics of little boys. I think Travis’ fear of being outed by Jodi was what caused him behave so erratically. He NEEDED to maintain control of Jodi because of this…I also suspect that TA was using steroids to improve his muscle tone and this would have contributed to his flailing temper.

    • Yes because steroids make the Pecker not work properly also that would make
      a SEX FREAK ….FREAK out as his manly hood was not functioning correctly.
      Have you ever seen what that does to the balls ? makes them like marbles.

    • True. She already was a Mormon, and he was not a PPL big shot then. Couldn’t lord it over her with that. He was also a plumpy guy, not muscle man then, no roids.

    • Dorothy I agree 100%. There was a different kind of relationship, intimate sex changes everything. Jodi was the keeper of all of his secrets. that alone put her in danger with his volatile behavior. Ms Reid was the nice girl but notice he didn’t want to commit to her.

    • He was also obsessed with UFC and MMA.

      Sorry but that’s a huge red flag for me. Anyone who believes brutal aggression is “fucking cool!” needs to have their heads examined.

      • Not trying to knock anyone who follows the sport but those fights make me physically ill.

        • I fell safe admitting here that these types of entertainment make me cry (not feel like crying, but actually cry). I feel like we have not moved on from the barbaric times of the gladiators.

        • I have never watched it, I’m not a fan of contact sports. Or much of any sports for that matter. But I’ve talked to people who have, and what they’ve described is downright disturbing. It’s hard for me to believe that gladiator type events are so celebrated without question.

          Scary stuff.

      • 100% agree MB.When you’re into violent things even for entertainment,it means you dont consider them offensive or brutal so hell yeah,why not use violence in your everyday real life?That’s what experts say,especially with younger generations who are brought up,playing all kinds of violent computer games and then copy and ‘transfer’ these cruel behaviour back in their school yard,bullying their peers.

        • I was just reading yesterday about the impact of watching violence and it DOES have an impact on the brain whereas it makes one less sensitive to it. I’d say a lot of the ‘haters’ are into this violence, as well, which is why they see nothing wrong with making threats; even death threats.

        • Well that’s just it. That’s exactly what Travis did. He would “bodyslam” Jodi like she was an enemy combatant. He thought violence was awesome and a way to solve problems.

          I have no problem with martial arts, or studying fighting styles. There’s a lot to be said about skill, poise, accuracy, culture, ect.

          But television shows that exist for the sole purpose of seeing one person brutalize another person are not something I would throw a party about.

      • I find it strange that they like that wrestling also but they love the
        names of the holds I think most it is so they can talk nasty but
        it is due to wrestling so they can get away with saying…..naked
        choke hold etc.

        • You are soooo right, Rhonda! Allows them to remain virgins (and allows their “fans” to keep thinking it)

          • I looked on google for how TA was able to re-virginize himself

            i couldn’t find any way

            looks like even google didn’t show how TA was able to re-virginize himself, which was by lying

  128. I was in his bedroom all the time….we are to believe they didn’t have sex then.

    I bought his broke ass the computer.

  129. How odd, Deanna is on again! How come? Weird! We’d just recessed and it came on again of its own accord!

    • The AZ live stream has been doing this for several days now. They go into recess and the stream rewinds the testimony. Then it eventually stops. It is very confusing. anyone know why it does this?

  130. This makes a lot of sense.

    He treated Deanna different because :
    1.) She was old school mormon. Knew the rules and they had an even playing field on that. Jodi did not and did really join to be a part of Travis life- and wanted to believe he was bringing her in to mold her into what he wanted.. and she wanted to be what he wanted… if that makes sense.

    2.) Deanna isnt comely in the sense that Jodi is/was a head turner. This would be something that would make for reasons for Travis to be jealous over her, want to do bad things with and to her, and then despise her for it.

    and just IN MY OPINION> she isnt going to admit to anything they probably really did. So there.
    The Defense could throw a sex vid of them up on the screen and she would deny it as would all the TTown people riding the short bus.

    Sick.

    • Shan, I’d be shocked if Deanna ever did the dirty with TA without having those vows for life spoken to her.

      I agree TA was a completely different person when he was involved with her given she was home grown LDS. He was also 22 years old. I’m sure he was very aware he could never see himself spending his entire life with her. Thats why he couldn’t commit to her.

    • Shan72, yup I agree with you 100%. Idk why Martinez is bringing her up now and not before? If I was a juror on this case I wouldn’t blv this witness at all!

    • Yes that’s exactly it Shan72! Since this Deanna was part of the church for so long, there’s no way he would do anything different with her like he did with Jodi who came from “the world” so to speak. It was easier for Travis to do things with Jodi to avoid judgement as well and in my opinion he used both girls differently.

  131. Didn’t he tell so done Deanna was crazy or something like that? Seems like a trend

    • Yes, he did tell people that Deanna would be upset and alluded to avoiding trouble of her finding out about Jodi I cant remember where I read that. – Probably saw or read it early in the trial.

      • I watched Jodi’s testimony of that yesterday, day 16or 18. She said she had only met Deanna once when Jodi was at TA’s baking cookies and taking care of Napoleon. She said Deanna came in w/o knocking, went up to TA’s bedroom locked herself in there for a while, then Jodi said when Deanna came out of the bedroom Deanna went to the office and closed the door behind her and was in there for a while…Jodi said Deanna said she came over to “look for a book” but left empty handed. Deanna also refused Jodi’s offer of a freshly baked cookie.Jodi stated that when Travis was picking up the dog (Deanna was sitting for the dog while TA and Jodi went on one of their trips together) at Deanna’s house he had Jodi get out at a 7-11 while he did so. He said Deanna would cause trouble if she saw Jodi in the car.

    • I also read somewhere the Hughes were upset with Travis by using up Deanna’s
      good years by not making a commitment an the back an forth with her all the
      time was not fair due to after a certain age in that Faith it is really hard to find
      a husband or wife?? not sure where I read that but it makes sense. No wonder
      they are out trying to convert people all the time their stables get DRY !
      disgusting!

      • Skye was mad at TA for using Deanna,sending her MIXED SIGNALS(exactly what he did with Jodi)and had in fact used Deanna as an example,to warn Jodi.

  132. If Deanna gave him the computer for Christmas, Why was the user account on it, “Deanna”?
    Did she give him a USED computer for Christmas? Something’s off with that. Was she trying to get her “stolen” computer back from TA the night she came in snooping around while Jodi was there?

    • I brought this up further up in the comments. There is something VERY wrong with the statement she made.

    • Yeah that’s exactly what I thought too. Really a Christmas present with your IP addresses already on the computer? ??? I hope Nurmi asks her, see what she has to say about that???

    • Deanna testified that she didn’t use his computer but yet forensics shows posting with her account. If I remember correctly.

  133. Why were Deanna and Jodi both giving this guy money$ ….. I thought he was a hotshot with PPL

    • lookslike he was getting money from every woman. And was recruiting them for PPL and MAKE THEM PAY for that too.

    • Coz he was a manipulative narcissistic bastard,they can make you feel sorry for and take pity on them and all the unspeakable horrible tragedies that have fallen on their shoulders in order to persuade you do exactly what it is they wanna talk you into.

    • All this needs robe pointed out. I hope they ask her if she often purchased him large items an provided him with money.

      I rea lly wish the defense had called Skye ….

      • PPL is nothing but a multi level marketing scheme, a “pyramid scheme”, that requires you to sign up people under you who then are supposedly selling the “product”, which is pre paid legal. You can earn lots of money if the people under you are also RECRUITING others. No one really cares about whether the “product” is legit or a good one as long as you are recruiting others to do the same thing. Imo, anyone making a “living” with one of these scams is a loser who “recruits” unsuspecting participants who wind up losing their shirts and never make a dime. Look at that ridiculous video of travis stomping on a guy who tells him he has to “ask his wife” before he will sign up. The guy was an immature clown!

  134. Rewatching the Deanna testimony from the beginning.

    When JM asks her about yelling or hitting her, she blinks SEVERAL times – a sign of lies.

  135. Well I got my feed back and this witness has proved two things to me; first of all, it was ‘common’ for TA to break up with a girl then go back with the girl. Secondly, that this witness also ‘stalked’ him, (she remained friends after they broke up, then she moved out to CA following him).

  136. Sorry, I haven’t caught all of the trial. Does anyone know if Deanna was really his girlfriend or is she the only one making this claim?

    I’m thinking JM is trying to compare apples to oranges here. Comparing this so-called relationship to that of JA and TA. Obviously the latter had passion… passion breeds strong feelings, which in turn can cause fights/jealous/arguments/yelling.

    • Right! ALV had already testified that a deeper relationshi (TA and JA), they where also intimate, this is a WHOLE DIFFERENT relationship. I hope the jury can understand it and take NOTHING out of this witness.

  137. The trial is repeating itself! Anyone tell me how this happened? On the same page too.

    • The feed went blank for part of her testimony. They are replaying it in full. It is the 1.5 hour lunch break now.

  138. If she bought the damn comptuer as a GIFT.
    WHY THE HELL WAS THE OWNER NAME ON THE DAMN THING HERS?
    That makes no sense.

    DEFENSE??????? MAKE A LIAR OUT OF HER OVER IT

  139. OMG, EVERY time JM asked Deanna about TA yelling or hitting her, she BLINKS her eyes SEVERAL times and looks down!!

    • Why is it when this woman stayed friends with TA she isn’t called a stalker? And she followed him to CA, so doesn’t that make HER a stalker?

      • She was dating him when she followed him to AZ. Plus, she had a job that moved her to Phoenix.

        • Wasn’t Jodi dating TA when she first moved to AZ (I honestly don’t know as the testimony got so convoluted when JM questioned). And, wouldn’t moving away from AZ prove that Jodi was not stalking? I’m just pointing out that once again – we have double standards. It seems no matter if they were dating or not, any action that Jodi did is being interpreted as stalking.

      • Well,TA didnt call her a ‘stalker” but he sure called her ”crazy”.Maybe portraying his ex girlfriend as crazy was his favourite type of script at that time.

      • Also has glaring “data points” that point to Deanna having BPD as per the tot doc’s “expertise”.

  140. Juan is ridiculous. Am I in the minority here, or was Mr. Ashton as the Casey trial SO MUCH more professional? Maybe I have PTSD (or as Dr D would say bipolar)?

    These witnesses today are pointless.

      • Agreed. I guess that Ashton, for right or wrong, seemed to be doing his job. Juan seems out for glory and is a real jerk.

    • Agree, today’s witnesses have all been pointless, I can see why Martinez held them off for his rebuttal! Really what was the point of TA friend??? Martinez even asked him if him and TA had the kind of friendship where they shared every single detail like sex…. ok, he made the defense a point there because that would mean his friends didn’t KNOW TA, didn’t know if he was abusive, a pedophile or if he even did own a gun!

    • Ashton wasn’t at all professional. Burdick was. But Ashton is not on the level of Kermit.

  141. Deanna seems like decent person, but I gotta say, TA sure traded up to some good-looking women from her to both Jodi & Mimi.

  142. I’m sorry but there is no way they didn’t have sex…unless TA had a friend on the side. She’s not telling the truth and I hope that KN of JW GOES AFTER HER.

    • We can’t rule THAT out. He was such a player, he probably had lots of women when he was dating Deanna.

    • OMG – I’m sorry to be judgmental but I think this woman was not attractive – making her the ‘perfect’ public girlfriend for the mormon boy; he is not attracted therefore not tempted. This is such common behavior for an SA.

        • Oliviero…take another look after the lunch break. She is unattractive…dumpy looking…has a neck like a linebacker.

          Now ….don’t get me wrong…..I can certainly lose a pound or two….but my curves are smooth…not dumpy….just saying!!

          • Maybe she gained weight but I would not call her ugly and its serves no purpose.
            I don’t dislike her. It silly since she was obviously used by Travis and may have had a deeper relationship then Jodie since there exchanges were solely sexual.

      • Well, she IS mormon so perhaps bjs and anal were not sex in her book, just like in TA’s mind.

        • I feel sorry for anyone in that weird Cult Jodie is a part of too, The pedophile Prophet, all the sexual abuse etc. Its pretty sad anyone can fall for such an insane Cult.

  143. OOhhh! A TEACHER! Didn’t TA INSULT one of his girlfriends for wanting to pursue teaching as a profession?

  144. Who was the female who was “counseled” along with TA by the bishop and deemed “not temple worthy” by the bishop? Was it Deanna?

  145. did anybody catch that he would change the subject and leave the “impression” he was a virgin

  146. Also why can’t Deanna remember the year that she bought the computer for TA? I think the computer thing is coming back to bite her in the ASS!
    There is an old laptop that my husband has put waya that he doesn’t use because its messed up. It was purchased in 2005. How Do I remember that? It was bought with out tax refund following the birth of our son. Really Deanna? You don’t remember giving a Christmas gift that I’m sure you were PROUD to give, and must have cost you ALOT? In those years a laptop was easily $2000.

    • When she said that she bought it as a Christmas gift, ONCE AGAIN she blinked her eyes like mad! BIG sign of lies!!

  147. from twitter

    Some #JodiArias gallery drama. A regular sold her seat to another woman for $200. A big no-no according to court officials. (Cont)

    Both women questioned by people w/ badges. #JodiArias ct official says money returned & both women told that wasn’t cool

  148. The Gas company body builder lady gave some pretty damning testimony about the amount of gas she bought. I wonder what the answer is to that. If she bought a 3rd gas can at ANY TIME during her trip east or west it doesn’t matter, but it matters if she didn’t tell the truth about it. BUT…she could have bought a 3rd gas can after the trauma when she was in that dissociative state and not remember doing it I suppose.

    Someone on the site said their Ford could hold 18 gallons if it was really empty. But I thought it was established that the Ford Focus she rented only held 12.5 gallons.

    =/ This is a bad day. Someone make me feel better???????

    • Juan’s Walmart expert doesn’t know how to spell SKU. Walmart EXPERT. Better? Also, Chyna’s arms were so distracting, the jury didn’t pay any attention to her testimony.

    • One thing I have been speculating about : what did she buy at Mesquite ?

      Would be really funny if it was another gas can!

      Only speculating, I don’t know the precise defence position here, but I don’t think they are bothered.

    • The 2008 Ford Focus has a 13.5 gallon fuel tank and the 2007 has a 14 gallon fuel tank.

      • That helps a little Dorothy. I hate doing math. Could all the gas she bought be contained in 10 gallons of cans and 14 gallons of tank? That’s 24 gallons, and up above me someone said 25 max? How many gallons total are on the receipts again? You know this Geebee, right? What is the almighty gallon number that Jodi has to stay under to survive?

    • I don’t think it was “established” that the fuel tank could only hold 12,5 gallons. I believe JM asked “would you be surprised to know that the car had a 12.5 gallon fuel tank?” A sneaky way of IMPLYING it as fact.

      • It is sneaky, as usual….that is how he poses almost all of his statements. However, if you google that car, 2008 Ford Focus, it does have a 12.5 gallon tank. The 2007 is a bit bigger, but I believe the rental guy testified she rented a 2008…

    • Unless there’s a video of Jodi filling up three gas cans, I don’t see the point in her testimony at all.

      Also – the wally world lady didn’t check returns made under dummy skews. And there is another walmart in salinas that they did not check.

      There’s still reasonable doubt all over the place. Juan is far from a thorough or brilliant lawyer. He is nothing but hot air and psychological manipulation.

      • She could have been buying gas for someone stranded for all we know. What a waste of time that was

        • Trixels, I wondered about that also. Someone could have pan handled her for a few gallons.

      • The thing that bothers me about the gas issue, is that when we were all discussing this awhile back, some of us were saying it was likely that one of those purchases were for snacks inside the store, and now we know all three purchases were for gasoline. The other thing is that when Jodi was testifying, she said she bought that 3rd can and returned it to the same Walmart the same day. The defense having no questions for the Walmart employee didn’t help matters IMHO. The Tesero employee didn”t get any juror questions, so I am not quite sure what the jury is thinking of those 2 witnesses.

  149. Madonna-Whore Complex

    A man with a madonna-whore complex is a man who will sleep with and lust for a sexual and beautiful woman but he will never respect her as “wife” material and he will never marry her. In his eyes, she is tainted, impure, unworthy of the status of wife—yet he may possess passionate and contradictory feelings for her. He may even be in love with her but will never allow himself to be with her in any real sense.
    He will look for a “good girl” to marry—usually a woman who is cold sexually but, for example, is good at “wifely” domestic things: cooking, cleaning, homemaking in general, etc. A proper, pure “madonna” type woman who will bear his children.

    • oh,WOW thanks Linda.I could ‘describe’ what TA suffered from(since I know someone with the same marrying sm/fuc*ing sm else ideas)but I couldnt possibly know there’s actually a complex,not to mention first identified by Freud.Priceless information,THANK YOU!!

    • Yep. He was also looking for a born-into Mormon status symbol ‘good’ girl, a good respectable front to cover up his anal addictions.

    • So the husband in the Madonna-Whore Complex only has to go home after work and eat a good supper, then recline to his lounger chair with a beer in his hand and watch any channel on tv his choice, then sleep, get up the next morning…eat a good breakfast, pat wife on the head, a quick peck on her cheek…then go screw his whore during his lunch hour and enjoy his desserts…LOL…

      I actually know of a guy who does just that…and he thinks he has it made…LOL…

      • Sadly, there are many men who live this lifestyle. A friend of mine, who travels approx one week a month with associates has said every guy he’s traveled with, including himself, has been unfaithful over the years he’s been traveling – except for ONE GUY who has never, ever, remotely gone astray.

    • Some men brought up in some strict religions.
      But they stop attending when older but still have this thing in their head about
      women being pure an innocent not strong willed but bow down to them. But on
      the other hand want a sex freaky women but will not marry one but string one
      along forever an not marry them an wham they get married to that boring one
      an then call the free spirit up for a fling.

      I say let them BANG their new wives an leave the Free Spirits alone ! all
      Free Spirits need to SHUN them that do that to women when you hear of
      it also. I have seen it done a bunch of times myself. The guy that won’t get
      married an then not long after he breaks it off with the Free Spirit wham
      he is married to boring wife. I would tell a woman friend not to date a PIG
      like that an why?

    • Probably WHY he never married, he didn’t want to ever give up the sex he groomed & manipulated the good woman right in front of his face! Seems to me once he had his way with these ladies and they were to the point of marriage he had already begun to get bored & had already began to groom the next! That WAS HIS PATTERN! On another note, from all I have read about the law of chastity the defense could have brought up some of the things I posted earlier about it which quite a few Bishops believe death is better than inchastity!! One of TA friends called into the Haters station talking about the day of the memorial & that there was over 100 ppl there but at the burial it was the funeral director who spoke NOT a bishop. I really found this very very ODD.

  150. So what I’m getting from this is that if you were nice to one girlfriend you have to be nice to all of them? Wait, I’ll be back there are some guys I have to call.

      • I think it is the frustration we are feeling when hearing so many lies today…

      • Just because a people had good relationships doesn’t mean they didn’t have bad relationships. Just because he didn’t hurt this woman doesn’t mean he didn’t hurt Jodi! Their relationship has nothing to do with Jodi.

        • danielle…right…and if everyone acted the same way in all of their relationships…then all of them would be a bunch of boring clones…I think it is the ‘sugar and spice’…the ‘fire and water’….that makes relationships interesting and not boring…

    • I really would have THOUGHT one of his siblings would have taken his dog!! I know I sure would have had it been one of my siblings pets!! Unreal!

  151. I think we lost a lot today with the Walmart and Tosoro witnesses Jodi has to overcome her lies she told in the beginning and yet it looks like she was lying on the stand(im not saying that i believe she actually lied but for the jury it looks like that for sure) unless the defense has a way to overcome this im very afraid of the outcome

    Please give me some reasons to believe that it did not hurt her case im so sad !!!

    • nothing said proves pre meditation for starters..

      smoke and mirrors

      the emporer has no clothes

        • How does it prove she lied under oath? The Walmart rep said, ” HUMAN ERRORS” do happen and so does dummy SKU.

          As for the gas, I am a little taken back on that today. I do have a theory for that one, but I am off to a meeting, and will have to write about it later tonight.

  152. I think Deanna’s testimony actually helps prove what Jenn said in opening statements….”Jodi was Travis’ ‘dirty little secret'”…Jodi was always just a sex toy to the bastard.

    • Exactly…nothing but orifices to him. And she loved him so. My heart goes out to her.

        • Me too! like on the stand she would not say really in the way I would
          like he was a ass hole a jerk conceited etc. she really sugar coated
          a lot of things with Travis. For that selfish family sitting out there giving
          her the eyes of death an nothing LESS. I wish she could see
          they hate her an will not forgive her anytime soon. An just let it
          all out so the Jury could see an feel more but she did not.

    • sex toy, sexy lady to show off to other males, punching bag to take all frustrations on, pet who looked at him as a god, cleaning lady, woman with some money to spare….

  153. So the Mefferd guy says that Jodi was not Travis dirty little secret that they were affectionate in public…

    Yet..a week or so ago…who was that other guy on NG that said that Jodi licked on Travis ear in church?…and he even laughed about it…and NG said, She licked on his ear in church….then the guy said, well our church is a little different than your church…

  154. Massengil can keep putting people on the stand who continually say “he never cursed, he never tried having sex, he never touched me, he never kissed me, he never called me a bad name…blah blah blah…”

    The evidence shows he most certainly did to Jodi…..

    If you are having sexual contact with a person – there is a much higher degree of intimacy than there is with “friends”…so to these people who are annointing and canonizing Saint Travis … I say :

    “HOW WOULD YOU KNOW WHAT HE WAS LIKE???”

    • Yup and thats the point, Janeen. Even though some of it started showing with Lisa. She took it back but the fact is that she wrote it, it was still there!

    • Really this is a guy that told Lisa the Virgin oh never say Fart or Poop an some other
      5 year old word in front of him because he hated those words. WTH?

      An then you hear the other Travis on the recording the texts the emails etc. the guy was a FALSE FRONT
      for certain people that is evident an disgusting. I can’t stand 2 faced people or
      fork tongues period. Now who is the one with all the physiological problems here
      really ?

      • Really Rhonda,
        WHY did he just up and tell her that?
        Did she say it and he said I can’t stand that OR did he just offer that?

  155. Ok I asked this before didn’t KN have something about wally world a few weeks back? I’m wondering if he has someone coming in for that…I sure don’t understand why he didn’t question that witness….I hate to say it but it was big really big….unless she returned it to another store.

  156. Deanna talking about how mild-mannered TA was reminds of a story I know about the serial killer Bundy. The sister of an old friend of mine worked with Bundy many years ago, I think it was legal work in Utah, if I recall correctly. She said he was a really nice guy, and everyone he worked with also thought that. This is a serial killer, not just an abuser (not to minimize that), and no one knew.

    • Everyone describes my ex-husband as mild mannered, calm, smooth — even his own lawyer. That’s his public persona.

      • In my case too AA. Even my own PARENTS for a period of time told me I was overly dramatic, asked me if I was “pushing his buttons’…..reminding me how stubborn I can be, and so on. He was SO polite to people when he was first introduced it was sickening sweet, “Oh so nice to meet you, you are so pretty like your daughter”…..or “So lovely to meet you, your home is gorgeous, did you decorate it yourself”??? And behave that way the entire time, compliments all night, and whatever the person or persons around him believed, so did he. Politics, current evens, he agreed with a big smile. No wonder everyone loved him, he was a liar and a fraud. On the way home is when he would tell me what he really though of those he met, complete with name calling and laughter. It was sickening. I always hoped he would slip up sometime, somewhere…but he never did. To this day, I believe he is a psychopath.

    • It is obvious that Travis and Deanna did NOT have that highly charged relationship like Travis and Jodi had…Deanna looks homely and boring…and she just didn’t turn Travis on in a physical or sexual kind of way…The CHEMISTRY was just not there for Travis and Deanna…

      By the way that she was talking…I can honestly see that they had more of a friendship relationship between them…kinda like a brother and sister…cared about each other…nothing more…

      • All Travis Friends state Jodie was only a Booty Call I personally think Travis and Jodie had a very shallow relationship. Jodie felt like an unpaid whore.

  157. Okay, so I missed almost all of the morning, but got to watch some of the Walmart and Tesoro people on m iPhone, and then, watch Deanna. Like, wtf?

    • Looks like CroakerQueen didn’t catch Mefford’s testimony. How was it? The live blog said Jodi was crying. So sad.

      • Mainly his testimony was Travis treated Jodi like a girlfriend in public. He testified, he had witness them in different situations and Travis was affectionate toward her around his friends. That about it. Yes, you could tell the tape (no sound) made her reflect of better times.

        • Oh, a little bid more..he said after a while..Jodi raises her head up like she is bored. Well..I’ve commented about this tape before…he is telling a story about being held at gun point during a robbery, Jodi has more than likely heard this story dozens of time. There is nothing she does in this video that shows disrepect toward T

          • I have always wondered about this story he is telling on the video. Like did it really happen, was he a witness, did he testify, did he file charges or was this some back street crime commited by the Mormon Mob? Dry run? Maybe to scare him b/c they knew he was grooming women to appeal to his sexual appetite & the law of chastity was being violated again & again-TA just would not stop & he had a position in the church!! Anyone see what the Amish people do to keep order???

  158. well as I see it, today was just a waste of the taxpayers money, and my time. The PPL guy, not important, next, the walmart clerk, totally irrelevant and not even worth discussing, next, the scorned ex girlfriend, didn’t know a thing about Travis other than what he told her, and she’s obviously super gullible, or she’s lying.
    The DA is wasting everyone’s time, and I don’t blame the defense for not even bothering to waste their energy on these ridiculous witnesses.
    NEXT….

  159. Ok a couple of things. I think she’s telling the truth. Look you can’t say she is lying because what she says doesn’t fit your version of things. That’s what the haters do. Don’t lower your self . Second all things she is saying is true because he didn’t passionately care for her. Here’s’ the deal throw travis at least one bone here : No one wants to be alone. So this is why he strung lisa and Deanna on. He never felt for anyone the way he felt for Jodi. He CRAZY loved her. Even if he never said it out loud doesn’t mean its not true. I mean come on anyone in a relationship (long term or married) knows how passionate everything you do can be. And that goes for everything from sex to fights.No one else can piss you off more then our other half. NO ONE! And no one else could get a reaction like jodi could . That says something . He couldn’t stand how much he craved her in his life so he punished her for it. He hated needing her in his life and needing her with him. If you look Jodi only started looking in to things when she thought he was cheating. Travis flipped out at just the mention of her talking to someone. He never had any of these type feelings for lisa or deanna that’s why he was always telling them that he wasn’t ready for marriage , but with jodi he was always throwing it in her face like a little kid who wants you to ask them about something. He wanted to marry her but he hated what they had already done together. That’s why I think HE was pissed that jodi wasn’t upset enough that he was taking MIMI HAll and not her. He wanted her to need him as much as he needed her. She let him be his self without judgement even after she caught him ….you know , with the pics and they did all his fantasies and was everything a girlfriend should be in public and when he saw he had finally pushed to far and she started to move on and proved it by not caring about Mimi going on the cancun trip and by planning a trip of her own. I think Jodi is telling the truth about travis flipping out , but i think it was because he was furious about Ryan. Did he EVER get pissed if the other 2 talked to some one? NO. Did he ever try to get back with either of them after He and Jodi broke up? NO HE ALWAYS WENT TO JODI!! so Deanna is being honest . just look at the evidence and just your own experience in life and relationships. your thoughts?

      I agree with you but Travis did not Love Jodie he used her and she allowed it. She said she felt like a piece of used toilet paper. I think Travis derived pleasure from hurting woman and had sexuality issues.
      That is why he preyed on naive gullible woman. he was a sadist.

    • I agree. Although deanna has more to lose by admitting travis was mean on occasion then by lying about it. I want to hear them cross her before I make up my mind on her.

      • It would be humiliating for her he most probably used her differently, Who knows or he could have slept with all of them I get the impression he was a Woman Hater.

        • I think he had two kinds of women: the good ones and the bad ones. Deanna was on the good list therefore he treated her differently. also he seemed to change after PPl and the money too. More pressure means more abusive tendencies come out. The madonna whore complex…

      • JC – TEAM JODI ADMIN …..could you email me……I have a feeling there an undercover “hater” on board

    • I think his friends were so against their relationship that even if he did have feelings outside of the bedroom they would never leave hom alone until he broke it off and prob. why he kept her secret at least until he hooked another one. (Whoever it was he was making out with on the couch when she saw them in the window)

  160. is anyone else wondering why KN did not cross the walmart person, or even ask if it could have been returned to another store . it seems to me that was an obvious question.

      • problem is at this point we don’t know if there will be one and if there is it will probably be limited to to only that Dr.

    • stan
      that looks bad but Jodie brought this issue up did not need to. So if she lied, that’s a big problem

    • and it looks like there are 2 in Salinas, California, so maybe prosecutor went to wrong one or didn’t bring it up the other because they did and found a keno can returned there that day

      • Stan
        Don’t you think her Lawyers would know that also her receipts state the date time and store.

        • i do that’s why i was wondering why that did ask that , but Oliviero probably right most likely they didn’t know the answer or did and thought it would be bad

    • When you don’t know the answer to a question, it better not to ask it. I’m almost positive Jodi’s testimony was she returned it to the same location she purchase it. So I think they need to downplay it…don’t made a big deal about it.

    • I don’t think it looks bad. I think it was a way to convey to the jury that this witness/testimony is so irrelevant that we won’t bother with any questions. That’s how I took it, at least.

  161. I note that Jodi says at one point specifically: “I went to Mesa with two gas cans”.

    I think that’s probably it – she bought a third gas can at Mesquite…. or at any rate after leaving Mesa.

    I could be well wrong, but it’s hilarious if true.

    • You can listen to the Testimony when JM states, Would you be surprised, which Prosecutors always use to scare people she said yes since I did return it.

  162. IMHO, the testimony of Deanna was a waste of time. Nothing against her personally, she seems like a nice woman, it just seemed irrelevant. I know what JM was trying to do, show the jury that TA was not an abusive boyfriend, that he was just a regular guy who didn’t yell, scream, call names, hit, etc etc. So her is his ex, form many years ago, saying he was not mean. It really doesn’t mean alot, if I were a juror, at least. Reason would be, just because he was kind to her, doesn’t mean he was with Jodi. There isn’t always a pattern of abuse for each and every relationship….there can be, but it isn’t written in stone. Also, this was not a sexual relationship as there was with Jodi, and that can change things immensely. The PPL witness means very little IMO, just talking about TA and Jodi being affectionate in public at PPL events, which doesn’t say much, she herself didn’t deny going to events with him. So we have a few instances of them in public..and?? The point she made about being “hidden” was after the break-up, not while they were an official couple. The witness used the word “underground”, and thats perfect.

    The other 2 witnesses, Walmart and Teseoro, were, IMO a problem for the defense. Nurmi didn’t even cross Walmart, as there is nothing to ask. Tesoro is bad, it shows all those purchases that morning were, in fact, gasoline. Remember we were all talking a few weeks ago about how 1 purchase inside could be snacks, drinks, etc, but now we know it isn’t. And no juror questions for the Tesoro witness either. I have no idea why Nurmi decided to ask her about a cash purchase, when all 3 were credit card, but he did. Maybe he was trying to confuse the jury, I don’t know. But it was an odd question, and then she said they were all 3 credit and that was it. So, IMHO, 2 witnesses that were irrelevant, and 2 that were not good for the defense.

  163. Hhhmmm….

    Anyone notice that the Prosc witnesses drink ALOT of water – nervous? not being very truthful?

    Gulp, gulp, gulp…won’t it be fun, if the court starts charging $$$ for water? 🙂

  164. Good question from the juror. And wally world lady didn’t address the issue with the dummy skew.

    Like I said, they needed to check for a KEROSENE can, not a gas can.

    • I was thinking that. Since The Puppet Master likes being so thorough and so technical he should have clarified it and Nurmi should have asked it on cross.

    • Yep. you can definitely get a cash return without a receipt. The barcode on the tag or on the product helps them find the price.

      And I loved that juror’s question! I actually think it was okay for them not to ask the Wal-mart rep any questions. It’s like they’re saying to the jury that the whole thing about the gas cans is not a big deal. It does not prove premeditation.

  165. “everyone makes mistakes, did you make this mistake more than once?” hahaha

  166. I love how Nurmi (and Jennifer too) are always so respectful to witnesses by saying good morning/ afternoon, do you need some water, please and thank you when handing evidence to a witness. Kermit doesn’t even say hello to his own damn witnesses much less the defense witnesses. Juries notice that shit.

  167. Is KN going to broach the PROXY SERVER issue? Also, if they did any forensics on whether the virus was DELIBERATELY set lose on that computer to wipe or make unrecoverable certain things (this would have been done in the interim 5 ‘GLORIOUS’ days when people had FULL access to the crime scene, the body, and ALL the evidence with which to manipulate). Had to spit it all out!

  168. Liar…there are childrens pictures on the Windows software….. so he didn’t see those. He sucks as a computer as a PC Nerd.

  169. I don’t see the point in Deanna’s testimony. Maybe someone else can help me understand how her testimony absolves Travis of the things he said and did in text and in the phone sex tape. Those were his words, his five hour raging communications. So *what* if he didn’t get angry at Deanna? That’s providing that Deanna is even telling the truth. Remember there are plenty of other women who are NOT coming forward out of fear.

    • If Martinez’ sole purpose was to have her there just to say that he didNT call her name,that they didNT have sex,that he hadNT yelled at her or beaten her up,he may as well have saved the trouble because he had already asked Mimi and Lisa those very questions.And as s rebuttal witness??I see no point other than him being desperate to have the jury listen to the things taht were brought up during the first days of the trial,kinda like reminding them of the Saint TA was,to imprint the holy image in their minds.

    • I don’t think he was nice to Deanna. She supposedly broke off with him but he kept her around, cried, etc, and she stayed. Did not marry or date? She was nice to him. But what did he ever do for her?

    • Sadly thanks to NG and her minions, the backlash of even hinting at something that is anti TA, never mind pro-Jodi, must truly be terrifying to the point of possibly withholding information on the stand or even perjury.

    • MB.

      Her bogus testimony means NOTHING……………. Remember Deanna is friends with the HUGES, SORENSON, ALEXANDERS, HALL and the rest of the cult members. Those peeps stick together. Obviously she was not marriage MATERIAL or TA would of married her after 5-6-7 years. And what was the real reason for moving from CA to AZ Deanna?

      The gas station and Walmart threw me off today…. WTF is up with the DEFENSE today? I would want to discredit both of these over PTSD or BPD…… Hope they have something up their sleeves……….

      • FU, that’s what im thinking. That the defense has something. Why not ask the Walmart girl questions? ! That really got to me, si maybe they feel like it was worthless if they’ve git something ekse to bring up. Idk!

      • It’s so unlike them NOT to ask questions,even when Martinez’s claims were ridiculous they usually did ask for at least one clarification! I so wish they have sth up their sleeve otherwise this might seem to the jury like the defense team is backing on Kodi’s word?

      • Yeah, I’m not sure what’s up with that either.

        Nobody checked under dummy skews or checked the other walmart in Salinas. And nobody brought it up either.

        As far as the gas station is concerned, if they don’t have a video of Jodi filling up three gas cans then all we have is the assumption from Juan that is what she did.

        In fact I’m surprised that they did not enter into evidence a video of Jodi doing exactly that. Don’t most gas stations have cameras on each pump in case someone drives away without paying?

        • You BETCHA, they have cameras on all pumps… unless your at some mom and pop station in the middle of know where. Why bring this chick in from TEXAS? Why not someone from Utah? Video plz?

          Then some quack from Walmart, that said ” HUMAN ERRORS” do occur, and YES, they use dummy SKU for returns! To me the defense looks nervous today….

          Deanna, lived in AZ close to TA in May of 2008…. interesting to say the least. Makes you wonder who’s spyng on who, and who’s covering for who…………. ?

          5000 sq foot house, and you spend a lot of time in TA bedroom, and he buys you FAKE TITS? Come on Deanna. There is only one reason to be in that bedroom….. SEX my friend. You all aren’t the typcial MORMOMS, look at the TA family, drugs, sex, children before marriage, dysfunctional to say the least……….. PPL , LDS, SCUM of the earth liars.. This is why you cannot call yourself CHRISTIANS>>>>>>>>>> All because you want an innocent person to get the DP bc you didn’t get what you wanted from TA…..

          Mercy on all of you………….

  170. Facebook and Myspace history should be found on that computerter, if not then there was a secondary Computer which was most likely in his car which was conveniently “not” searched.

  171. Did he check deleted files. Many files that were ‘deleted’ would in all likelihood still be on the computer hard drive and could be accessed by various file recovery programs. Deleted files are just flagged as ‘unreadable’ but they are still there unless overridden by new data or because of hard drive format of a special type.

  172. I had a peep on the Travis FB site to see what was going on, and they have actually got a petition to try to close this site down!!!

    Haha we must be making a huge impact!! 😀
