   Juan says given Numeisters testimony and the fact he can’t operate the equipment take it as you will #jodiarias #3tvarias

   • Wonder who she refers to re “”he can’t operate equipment” ?

     • whole sentence refers to BN I think.

   • Who can’t operate What equipment?

   New chart- It is a Phase 2 and Phase 3 chart. It has to do with domestic violence. #jodiarias #3tvarias

   Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 11s 12 seconds ago
   Phases 2- abusive or violent incident Phase 3- calm and kindness, sexual interaction #jodiarias #3tvarias

   • Who’s typing this for her????

6. I’m seeing a pattern with Carolyn Sung – time for her after lunch nap.

   • lol Carb zone

7. It seems weird to me that the topic at hand in the courtroom is going back and forth so much today. Does the jury have to leave each time JM brings up the missing evidence thing? Everything seems so choppy. I wonder if it is a tactic…to divert the jury’s attention…grr

   • Yeah, JM is trying to hide the “aircraft carrier in the room” from the jurors………….

     • LOL BB 😆

   • they’ve only talked about the misconduct motion issues when the jury was out of the room – judge and lawyers TCOB when jury not present

     • I guess the jury must be getting their exercise.

       • No – this morning before they were brought in, TCOB, then again after lunch before they were brought back, TCOB

   Dr. Geffner telling #jodiarias jurors of “cycle of violence”-“cycle of abuse”-“learned helplessness” #3tvarias

   Dr. Geffner says he sees patterns of abuse in Alexander/Arias relationship#3tvarias #jodiarias

   • According to TOTDOC, there was NO abuse………………rolling my eyes.

     • Don’t you even…. LOL.

     • I wonder if she has learned any thing since she testified before…she CAN’T be sticking to the same BS she did before

     • And let us never forget the now classic ”Travis had an unhealthy communication pattern”
       Okeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy…. I’d really like to find out how HER boyfriend talks to her. 😉

10. Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial · 2m 2 minutes ago

    He claims Travis aggressively grabbed #JodiArias causing pain. Additionally, he mentions text messages & emails.

    • Good that is where his abuse shines forth.

11. Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 31s 32 seconds ago

    Phase 1- threats, words, harassment, minor physical abuse, both try to control behavior, deny, minimize, tension builds #jodiarias #3tvarias

12. Not to worry about BN …..he is the expert, not JM and the truth will come out as to exactly what the state did with the evidence…..BN is not about to let little JM falsely accuse him or twist the facts to make it look like he or his staff did….

    • something wrong…..(to finish my thought !)

13. Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial · 25s 26 seconds ago

    Willmott specifically asking about TA aggressively grabbing #JodiArias (after a brief bench approach)

    • And wouldn’t this all be in a much truer context if the jury knew that TA was an obsessive porn / child porn watcher……..

      • YES BB!! Doesn’t seem at all right to exclude that…I bet a lot of TA’s anger had to do with the fact that SHE knew HIS dirty little secret …the kiddie porn…PLUS the fact that he was living a lie in EVERY aspect of his life made his aggression manifest itself. Jodi was his whipping post.

        I wonder if the doctors were not privvy to that info or if they were just not allowed to mention it. hmmm

        • I bet ALL of TA’s anger had to do with the fact that SHE knew HIS dirty little secret….the kiddie porn…. 😉
          That’s why he would lash it all out to her in every monstrous form that anger can get: whether verbal, emotional or physical!

    Dr. Geffner: 1st example of physical abuse by TA in March ’07 when#jodiarias says he grabbed her-but credibility always issue #3tvarias

    • Credibility issue is DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE BRADY VIOLATIONS !

      • YES IT IS!!! More unfairness

    Geffner is talking about an experiment with dogs. Shocking the dogs in a cage at random and how the dogs adapted to it over time. #jodiarias

    • Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 20s 21 seconds ago

      When the cage was opened the dogs don’t escape and when shocked they still wouldn’t leave cage. #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • I could have gone without hearing this. I deplore animal abuse in any form.

      • Omg, same here. WTF sick experiment was that???

    • Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 39s 39 seconds ago

      They had to be retrained they could leave the cage with assistance #jodiarias #3tvarias

      • Just like a domestic abuse victim 🙁

        • Exactly. And I’m sick and tired of hearing ”Why didn’t she just leave?”
          🙄

          • It’s called learned helpless theory. It’s the idea that if you expose people to enough abuse, they won’t escape if given the chance, as they will be stuck in victim mode. The original experiment was done in the 60s, I believe. The Stanford Prison experiment was done in the 1970s. Both experiments would not be conducted nowadays, as they would be in violation of ethical regulations. I remember my college professor stating that nowadays these experiments would likely land the experimenters in serious trouble with their licensing boards and with law enforcement.

          • I know, Maria. That comes from shallow-minded people who actually consider themselves deep thinkers. They can’t envision anything outside of their own experiences. They not only think they know exactly how they would react in the exact same circumstances (wrong) but they hold everyone else to this same imaginary behavior as if they have some brilliant insight into The Truth. Also these superficial and arrogant people are just plain mean.

    • DID you hear your own tweet Jen? The public AND THE MEDIA tend to minimize the affects of psychological abuse…It’s what YOU members of the “media” have been doing all along.

    • Omg it’s about time someone said that…

    • I hope she was typing those words with a sense of guilt and embarrassement but I am probably asking for too much!

24. Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 1m 1 minute ago

    Geffner is going over how insults can damage someone #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • MARTINEZ should pay attention to what Dr. Geffner is saying! martinez is the master of insulting everyone!

    • The insults, psychological abuse (from my own personal experience) harmed me more deeply than the physical abuse. I wouldn’t have allowed the physical abuse had the psy. abuse not already been so deeply rooted.

      • Emotional abuse can ‘break’ someone for life. Tear down their self esteem.

        • AND put up some pretty thick walls for others to get through…

      • So would I…..

      • Excellent point, Dorothy.

        • Yes, excellent indeed. And this is precisely why abuse reaches a climax, so to speak. Abusers usually start with verbal attacks and they build up their abuse, reasulting to physically harming their victims. First they break your soul and then they actually break your bones….

          • and heart

      • Sorry you went through DV, Dorothy. 🙁

33. Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 36s 37 seconds ago

    Geffner says this is a controlling and abusive relationship and Travis is the culprit #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • No shit….

34. I’ve reread the COA opinion, and I’m still mystified. It appears Jodi argued that she couldn’t testify to mitigation factors properly if the public could find out what she said, because of death threats she’s received. But JSS’s decision only ordered that the transcript be sealed until a verdict was reached. After that, presumably the public would find out whatever it is the threats make her fear disclosing. Can anyone suggest an explanation?

    (For those who haven’t read the opinion: there is no mention at all of the need to protect other potential mitigation witnesses — only Jodi herself.)

    • It is highly curious to me on this….Jodi has freely publicly testified previously to the nth degree …I feel that this is somehow connected to her wanting to protect the identities of the mitigation witnesses to follow her…and it would be true that she may not be able to speak as freely if the public had access to her testimony than if it was sealed…after all she would never want any harm to come to any of her mitigation witnesses and I believe that this tact was used to try to seal the whole proceeding from the public to do just that…….I do remember that the KN motion on this issue mentioned specifically 3 witnesses who refuse to testify in mitigation due to the threats so it does have something to do with that I believe. Also Jodi is kept in isolation at the jail so she is more protected than anyone and has I believe over the years come out of the fog of the control of TA and become more of her own person and determined to see this case through……..

      • ……not only protect the identity of the mitigation witnesses especially the one that was to testify to TA’s porn addiction but to protect what they were going to testify about….one of the witnesses could very well be a member of the Mormon church from that community who knew this about TA and fears retribution from the members, etc………

      • All that would make sense, but it’s not mentioned at all in the appellate opinion, so apparently nothing like that was argued to them. Only stuff about threats to Jodi herself.

        • You are correct. I just think it is odd. Even the COA opinion states what I have stated all along that since she testified previously in open court she can not now claim that she needs her testimony to be in private. “A defendant who testified in open court during the guilt phase of the trial can not decide she will only testify in the penalty phase if the press and public are excluded and her testimony is sealed until after any verdict.” And so this is why I have been saying that it must be for the protection of her mitigation witnesses, however, given there is no mention of that here in the COA decision like you correctly point out, it very well may be that she feels very threatened. KN made much of the 3 witnesses refusing to testify in his motion on this matter. So it is still very curious to me….

    • alan, ….Perhaps Jodi is afraid of testifying or having her testimony revealed (in short spurts), because she knows that her ((((greatest threat comes from the prison)))). …And those who control the prison, where she would have to go back, (in between her days of testimony), if she were not released out the front door of the courthouse. …Remember “Jack Ruby” of the JFK assassination & Jack’s conviction of killing Oswald? …And, Jack Ruby’s death sentence & then the Texas COA over turning his death sentence less then three years of his time in prison? …Then (yes we know he had cancer), but I read on Google that the Texas COA cleared the way for a new trial for Ruby. …And he started talking to congressmen from prison, but he (((((suddenly))))) died in Parkland Hospital, Dallas, before he could get to his new trial. …Not that he would have been be found not guilty, but perhaps he would have told the ENTIRE real story of ((why JFK was taken out & why Oswald had to be just a patsy)) & the only shooter or (((not a shooter at all))). ..(IMHO).
      …I truly believe that Jodi feels that her life is in danger in that prison, (just my humble opinion). … Especially if she is NOT permitted to testify in secret, & her testimony is revealed to the media, and she is not released for time served. …And, she is not permitted to walk out the front door of the court. ….In My Humble Opinion, as this is just my opinion. …Pardon if I have any typos. …

    • hmmm my post got trimmed?

      • I copied it before that happened. Interesting to me is that he is waiting for JM to make mincemeat out of the good doctor.

        • yah – but that was actually complimentary for Gold – what he said first was “EFFECTIVE TESTIMONY”

          i do not care for being censored

          • Journee, I get it! But to me it was revealing to read his comments. Each Twitter seems to have their own personal slant about this trial.

            • yah, well, I guess someone didn’t agree

    • I think it’s just that this afternoon’s testimony was stuff that most people can relate to – if they can relate they stay engaged and can sometimes tweet without snark.
      Gold wasn’t snarking either.

      • Yea, it seems much better this afternoon for some reason. I saw your post, Journee – definitely went poof.

      • perhaps we are all being a bit introspective…?

49. Ok I would like to ask all of you why we didn’t ever hear about the other text mgs. To all the other women..Pig….

    JM has the ball to make Jodi out to be a slut…what a scrum bag IN….

    • My thoughts exactly! Names?? It goes to show that there are most definitely women out there who knew of TA’s bullshit all along. It’s ashamed they didn’t have the courage to come forward.

      • ALV gave names when she testified – seemed like there were 10 or 12 of them in the first four months of 2008.

        • She gave the names of all of them??? How did I miss that??? I WOULD NOT HAVE forgotten THAT.

          • IIRC, it was first names only.

            • Wounder how many were escorts…no we founder he didn’t have money……

              Yup he was a Saint all right..

          • I’ll see if I can find it later.

        • I need to go re-watch it.

      • As I recall one of the women was married that he was texting and emailing.

      • You mean they’re on vacation? 🙂

    He would threaten them with belt so when he would get home the kids were in constant fear #jodiarias #3tvarias

    An Aunt told Geffner now a days this would be looked at as abuse #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • And her dad was a MUSCULAR man back then.

    The dad had a paddle with the kids name on it according to Carl. Neither one could remember being hit with it #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • I have always been suspicious of him…………….

62. Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 14s 14 seconds ago

    Dad would tell kids they better start crying right now or you will wish you did. #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • See, the one I remember is “you better stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about”

      I don’t ever recall being spanked, though. I remember my brother being spanked when he was little, but I don’t remember being spanked at all.

      • Lucky and that’s what my dad would say all so.

63. Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 23s 23 seconds ago

    Carl put a note on door saying if you loved me you wouldn’t spank me #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • 🙁

      Children desperately clung to positive family moments, “I love you” from Dad & “proud of you” from Mom which got them thru abuse #jodiarias

    Jodi was held at knife point when she was 13. A boy they knew did it and she thought she was going to be raped but he didn’t do anything.

    • Or did he? May be like when she said that TA didn’t rape her in the study that day.

    • wonder if she blocked out the rape…held at knife point then got her period? hmm..

      • I KNOW….

    She kicked a hole in bedroom wall when she was mad at her mom and had a temper #jodiarias #3tvarias

    Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 2m 2 minutes ago
    Geffner doesn’t see this as violent because it’s a wall and not a person #jodiarias #3tvarias

    Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 2m 2 minutes ago
    The Aunt says she never even saw a hole in wall so he doesn’t know if this is true #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • Sounds kinda normal .

      • Pretty much.

    • Show me a teenager that is not pissed and angry at the world.. there isn’t one! Hormone changes make teens crazy! So by kicking the wall and while everyone that hates Jodi is going to stick to that, please be honest with yourselves: how many things (objects) have you kicked or punched when pissed???

      • lol Pandora …I would just slam doors and cabinets….Never wanted to cause myself pain :/

    • AND she was a teenager…only one of my siblings exhibited this behavior as a teen…and I have six sisters and three brothers…she was SO nasty to my mother it made me cringe…but it didn’t last long

      • Oh my and I thought 7 kids was allot. LOL.

    Jodi always spend more than she had (max out cc to go on trips with Travis) #jodiarias #3tvarias

    • That’s because she was paying for him too, most likely!!

    • Hey wait…Darrell said she was always very responsible with money….

      • That was BEFORE TA…………..

        • I know…….so her value system changed…

          • I think mainly it was TA’s abuse…..he used her for money also.

            • How sad…….poor Jodi..

72. I don’t know why but today has me in tears

    • This part always does..I think we are burnt out from yesterday..

      (((Dorothy)))))

    • Parts and pieces hit home for just about everyone.

    What affects would coming from an abusive home have on someone. Well if a female was hit then she would think this is normal #JODIarias

    Jen’s Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ · 13s 14 seconds ago
