Jodi Arias Retrial, Day #792 – Deliberations Continue

.
The hung jurors start day #5 of deliberations @ 9.30 am MST today.

The verdict — which I’m expecting sometime today — will be broadcast live @ www.CBS5AZ.com

— and while it’ll be good to finally get a “verdict” and bring this judicial fiasco to an end… it will also simultaneously mark the beginning of our quest for JUSTICE FOR JODI. Realistically, that in itself will probably take several years to achieve… and even though there are still countless unanswered questions out there, all we do know for certain is that we are here for the long haul, and WE WILL BE VICTORIOUS in our quest for JUSTICE FOR JODI… however long that may take.

Never question it.

Never doubt it.

Prepare for it.

A new page will go up once we get the promised 1 hour notice on the announcement.

Any relevant tweets & info will be posted in the comments section of this page as we go along.

In the meantime folks…

We Are Team Jodi!. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

        • Justice forgive me, when I signed off from my long post, I hadn’t added your name to our collection of authors of complete cases for the defence of Jodi Arias. You probably have not yet read my rant, but the theme is: Look at the talent and generosity we already have among us to make our cases for justice for all. We were tricked into being under-served by all those high ticket, mediocre leaches.

          We don’t need them now, and WE DIDN’T NEED THEM back then. Looks what’s happened to Jodi in the meanwhile that we were trusting those deceivers. I’m sure God has a plan for her, I’ve already seen it change people she is around. But she would still have seven more years of her life had we never been duped into trusting those greedy deceivers that tricked us into giving up our own talent and logical problem solving in exchange for costly half backed ideas, waste, and inefficiency, when we had what we needed in our own hands all along. Jodi was tricked and deceived into giving up her freedom in the first place. What did she owe Flores. Just another domestic abuser, really.
          Others that deserve recognition for fighting on the right side, Sandra Weber, Inconvenient Truthes, Miss Pajama Girl: the body removed and returned has merit in IMO. I know there are more. We are very blessed, but I need rest. I’m about to read a Pitchforks paper I found this morning. Yep, it goes back in time to 2014, but at least that’s better than 2013 that I get teased about.:-)

  2. Good Morning everyone. Well SJ we might get a verdict if delusional JSS will except the fact that the jury is hung….
    It was very nice to have Al back.

    So here we go again another day of nail biting but as of yesterday we at least knew the jury could not all agree on the DP. Prying that has not changed….

    Praying for Jodi and her family….

      • Lol cindy, started the day off fixing the typo 😉 Seems I have at least one typo in every comment…EVEN after I proof read. So, I appreciate that someone else experiences the typos. I don’t bother ‘fixing’ them after I post unless what I have written makes absolutely no sense. 😀

        • Well Dorothy, I thought that I should fix the word praying… I’m normally using my phone and voice to texts…I guess my phone doesn’t like my voice..

          I do hope this will end today….well this part of it….

          • I think it will end today…this part of it.
            I stopped using voice to text. With my Boston accent there is NO hope that anything I say will be correct lol. It’s hilarious.

            • Hey I have a Midwest accent you should see the things that print out…..when my sisters and I texts we just leave what ever prints out..it’s a great chuckle for the day…

  3. I think JSS is just following the rules to make certain that the jury is not going to be able to get beyond this impasse. I wouldn’t want to be in the judges position now though.

    • I know your right but…..know matter what side your on JSS takes the wrath. You have to earn respect ……. She has not done that.
      From day one her courtroom has been a free for all. I’m sure she is a good judge in the lower courts….

      • you are to kind to JSS.. she has been trying to cover her ass through all of this instead of being a real judge!

      • I agree cindy, JSS is definitely out of her realm on this DP case. It was apparent from day one. One thing that is absolutely unacceptable is that she has allowed obvious things to go without repercussions ie., blatant displays in the gallery that could/did undoubtedly influence the jury. That is the kind of thing even I would know to address and I have absolutely no legal training.

    • I have no sympathy for the Judge. She knew what responsibilities this job held, she accepted it and she should be able to perform in a manner that would actually look like she was worthy of it. JSS has failed so many times now, I’ve lost count. Jodi should have been acquitted at the beginning of this farce. And, certainly there have been many motions made for MISTRIAL that should have been granted. In fact, every one of those motions should have been granted. JSS truly is a disgrace to the word JUSTICE.

      • Hey R. I didn’t say I felt sorry for JSS. I just said she had to be a decent judge for the lower court. How she ended up preciding over this case I don’t know. OK so they didn’t have enough judges for the case load or that’s the BS they want to spin.

        • I knew what you meant but as I have said before JSS shouldn’t be allowed to judge a pie eating contest IMO. I will stand by my decision. 🙂 Pitiful. The Frog has led her around by her nose this whole time.

      • Good Morning All !
        JSS is the one that allowed this mess to happen !! She did NOTHING to stop the state’s misconduct and turned a blind eye to every violation….

        • BB, they had no right to have her preside over this case. But that’s my own feelings. She was in over her head from day one. I do understand that judges have to get their experience someplace.. But like with any other job you have a mentor. I’m sure she had one on speed dial but he/she should have been in the court room with her. If nothing else she should have had control over “Her” courtroom!!!!

          I’m not to sure she will ever preside over a capital murder case again. But who knows???

          • Yes, an experienced judge should have been sitting RIGHT next to her to show her the ropes. If that would even be allowed, but I doubt it.

    • My initial comment re: JSS following the rules was solely about sending the jury to continue deliberating this time..I did NOT mean to imply that she followed any other rules during this trial. I agree she is WAY over her head with this case, has proven that from day one and imo she should NEVER be allowed to preside over any other DP case. Either she is just not qualified OR she accepted a bribe. She has proven to me to be a disgrace to the justice system.

  5. Good morning,

    I have been a long time reader of this website for over 2 years. I feel like I know you all, although I didn’t comment.

    I am praying for justice for Jodi and am nailbiting waiting for a verdict so this can move on to the next phase.

    I appreciate all the information I have read here over time and thank you all for your contributions to the facts.

    Regards,
    AJ

  6. GOOD MORNING TEAM JODI!!!! PRAYERS FOR JODI, JODI’S FAMILY,
    DEFENSE TEAM AND THE JURY !
    May Jodi feel our Love, Support and Positive Thoughts. Hang in there Jodi we
    are with you all the way to FREEDOM!!! Inch by inch, step by step we march on!!!

  7. Good Morning everyone. For some unknown reason I am in knots today and I do not like the feeling one bit. It is my hope that the jury continues to be at an impasse and JSS does the right thing by declaring it and giving Jodi life.

  9. Angela Arias @AngelaArias21 · 13m 13 minutes ago

    Today is the day I can feel it 🙂 #praying4jodi

    • Who’s time zone?? Thought I’d throw that in. You might be right BB.
      Or they might have sent that “note” to JSS before the end of the day yesterday and she decided to let it wait until this morning. I guess we will see what this morning brings.

      • Greenwich time zone?? Just kidding…….

        They need to stop the madness already!!

    • Yes Bystander, I think the jury will send a note prior to lunch, the judge will notify the attorneys, the families, the press… and the verdict will be read after lunch.

  12. Al, BB moving forward to the appeals, do either of you think do to the fact the DT tried to quit so many times, Jodi can now say she had ineffective Council??

    • Cindy, I think I recall in the beginning of the first trial Jodi hinted at ‘ineffective Council” when she requested that Nurmi be removed from the case. (I may be wrong). It was denied. Then when Nurmi stated during his closing during the first trial phase that “nine times out of ten” comment…may have been made for this purpose as well?

  14. I think if Jodi’s lawyers was this determined at her 1st trial and jodi didn’t take the stand I think she would’ve been dealing with a lesser sentence. Just my opinion.

    • It is important to remember that when Jodi wrote her hand printed, 12 page letter, to BEG the court to take Nurmi off the case, she documented that kurt Nurmi had left instructions for his secretary to hang up on Jodi and not to take any messages from her. In general I’m remembering that were periods of four months, up to 14 months that Nurmi would stay out of reach of Jodi, and refuse to respond to her. Since this is contrary to the manner that is spelled out in Arizona statues for a defence attorney to treat his client, I see no reason why he should not have his license put on ice for a while with a good dose of community service to see if it is possible for him to develop some empathy. If not, throw the BUM out!

  15. The wild west form of justice will begin soon. I just read Al’s second note and it is a very realistic prediction…but as i always see the glass half full even in situations like this, I will keep the hope alive that a great lawyer will come along and turn this thing around. Let’s all hope Judge Stephens does not get voted in again. That is possible because no matter what side you are on, she is not respected. Yeh, I know my thinking isn’t legaleze but I will hope for the best.

    • We are all on the same team here 🙂 and it is purely an intellectual argument, but I disagree with Al’s perspective and I believe he misses on his analysis of some of his points though he has every right to his opinion…..We are (((((TEAM JODI))))) and SJ always says we will be victorious, never doubt it !! And I never do…………..

  17. RECAP:
    CBS 5 News ‏@CBS5AZ 16m16 minutes ago
    Judge to Arias jury: Try harder to reach verdict

  18. If jury comes back hung, any thoughts on what JSS will hand down?

    I’m going with LWOP. No way she’ll give her the chance of parole. IMO.

  19. Most of the jurors are there already! Hoping they just take another vote and then tell JSS they are hung with no hope of agreement.

    • She sent them back already. I think, because they are told to continue deliberating, they will probably take another vote, fully aware that no one will change his/her mind. They will sit for a while, for good measure, then notify judge AGAIN. I just hope she doesn’t send them back after this. It seems JSS does NOT want to get stuck with the responsibility of sentencing Jodi. She is probably afraid for her own safety. Being aware of what has happened to other professionals and witnesses, I wonder if she will be treated the same way by the hoards of evil haters…?

  20. Jurors are walking in courthouse. Some with headphones, some looking down, some looking at the press and smiling!

    Stephen & Samantha Alexander are here. #JodiArias

  22. Good Morning…..
    My prayers go out to Jodi and her family and to all of you.
    I am feeling much the same way that you all are. I am staying positive that jury’s decisions are IN JODI’S FAVOR. It is in God’s hands and I believe and I BELIEVE in HIS Grace and Comfort and Love for Jodi. I prayed a long prayer about 1 am, asking a bunch of why’s, pleases, thank yous,. When I am on a “direct line to God” with a very specific prayer request, I always fall asleep in a complete peace. I think He says “Jane, I got it”. HE is such a “nice guy” for us all.

    I have been here all along. Thank you for allowing me to be part of this wonderful site.
    God’s Blessings to all. I praise Him and feel “He has Jodi’s back”. Here is to a Victorious Day for Jodi and her Team.

    • Pandora,
      I’ve spent the morning getting information about the Arizona Innocence Project.
      I made several phone calls, but so far I’ve only talked with voice mail.

      The Innocence Project route sounds like it could be very promising indeed. It is not “attorney” focused. It is instead out-of the-box. It’s own concept, so to speak.

      Info from their website:
      Causes we take in: Wrongful Conviction

      The Project appears to be sponsored by Northern Arizona University.

      Live-client actual innocence clinic that investigates
      I believe they may use law students to fill out their services.
      There is a 17 page screening/application form that needs to be filled out.

      I went through Jade’s complete series of documented evidence that she has prepared. A heroic piece of work.
      I think if folks at the Innocence end could open that up with a link, what they will see in front of them will be worth a million words.

      If we could get Jodi involved in this, she would finally be participating in her own defence. It would give her something to do that might make a difference. She would hopefully be dealing with people who operate from a core of compassion, not greed, hate, and indifference. These folks claim they are committed to freeing the marginalized.

      I cannot accept the notion that Jodi’s ONLY option is to go through a 20 year long appeals process. That kind of constrained thinking is nonsense. It comes from being guilted into thinking we should be using “the legal system.” I think we’ve already given the “legal system” a fair chance, and just how well did that work out? The recipes from their play book taste awful.

      They try to make us believe we are obligated to use it too use only their system. We don’t have to settle for getting ripped-off wasting years of Jodi’s life, and then receiving invoices from them to make us replace all their foolish spending out of our own pockets.

      The point is that this did not need to be a costly process in the first place, nor a long one. How much did it actually “cost” except a labor of love, for Jade to create everything that was ever needed to try Jodi’s case.

      *aside(I don’t understand how these electronic communications work, so I’m no help there. I’m officially turning the mechanics of sending and receiving over to someone like SJ, or one of his co-geniuses.) Someone needs to head up this project, print the 17 page application, and decide who should fill it out. It asks a lot of info that Jodi would know off the top of her head, like the date she was arrested, and other such memorable milestones. So She ought to be allowed to get started right away. Who of the lawyer crats out there have the authority to forbid her? The answer had better be, NOBODY.

      And she needs a computer IMMEDIATELY. The grimlins never had the constitutional right to deprive her of that, EVER. The constitution guarantees the right to assist in her own defence. What’s she suposed to do for information _ read tealeaves? A great benefit if this works out, is we will never be having to guess about what has been done, is being done, and what has been neglected. Think about it, all these years all of this Jodi family has pitched in and dug for legal answers, and new ideas, and clues to solve mysteries. We’ve to do our own detective work and analyse crapy pictures, so that WE can inform these legal stumps what is actually on them. Who had to get involved to tell us that Horn was LYING. A gun expert, who explained the wimpiness of a .25 calibre bullet, the difference in a hollow point, and why Grandpa’s gun was different than the one in TA’s closet. Now tell me _ HOW MUCH DID IT COST for us to find that information from an expert gun enthusiast. Who’s information was more reliable in the end _ the greedy State’s, or the gift from a hobby specialist eager to share his knowledge.

      PLEASE, I hope out team can stay our from under the train by avoiding the “System.”
      Remember, Jodi needs to remain uncommited until she gets the full picture of what is available as her path to freedom. Let’s see how far we can progress during this 45 day hiatis JSS probably giving us.
      For some reason I have a suspicion that Alan has a lot that he can suggest.

      I did read those Arizona Rev Statutes that someone posted. It was pretty darn simple to see that we have been led around by the nose to our own detriment.

      My conscience compels me to disclose that, although Nurmi did pull magic out of the had in delivering his closing argument. I especially appreciated his grace and dignity in avoiding using blame. It is more obvious, that there is blame to go around when it is not pounded over one’s head.

      But that’s it. That is all I can say about what he has done to Jodi as her so-called defense attorney. Going forward, I do not trust him, I think it is more just his being selfish and lazy, than a case of malfeasance such as Martinez, Horne, Flores, Stephens. As for Jennifer, I just don’t know. I think it’s a case that God is just not finished with her yet. But as a former teacher, an F is the automatic grade for any body going before a group they must educate and persuade, without bothering to create charts, graphs, propped on easels, the who visuals show. Think of Geffner’s effectiveness, and Alyce’s.
      **CAUTION: I read on one of these programs, that if you already have an attorney, you cannot be eligible for the program. The puts Jodi in a unique position. For a short window of time, she will be free from the claims of an attorney. I someone talks her into hiring a mouthpiece, the whole potential for getting her free with in weeks, or months at most, will probably fall apart. Good Luck, and may God be with us. Love you all. seabird

    • It was mentioned yesterday Cindy… there was a tweet saying she adjourned her case for the day to deal with the questions from the arias jurors. Martinez also has a case going on.

  35. This business of subjecting the jurors to the press and the family really does not seem necessary. Surely there must be another entrance/exit, with some security guards in place. That would be a nice touch. WTF is wrong with that place?

    • There are other ways for the jurors to enter/exit the building as we saw yesterday afternoon when the Arias family was sitting in the hallway and of course someone decided that the jury needed to exit out the back way so they wouldn’t see the Arias family….so biased…..I just hope that KN and JW are keeping note of this bias…..I frankly don’t know how they are allowing it to continue……

    Waiting for a verdict or a hung jury in #jodiarias with the hacks in the hall.

      • Think he may be referring to the tweeters that are not journalistsor he could be referring to the journalsists I believe they call themselves hacks but not sure have to look it up.

        • Hack writer is a colloquial and usually pejorative term used to refer to a writer who is paid to write low-quality, rushed articles or books “to order”, often with a short deadline. In a fiction-writing context, the term is used to describe writers who are paid to churn out sensational, lower-quality “pulp” fiction such as “true crime” novels or “bodice ripping” paperbacks. In journalism, the term is used to describe a writer who is deemed to operate as a “mercenary” or “pen for hire”, expressing their client’s political opinions in pamphlets or newspaper articles. So-called “hack writers” are usually paid by the number of words in their book or article; as a result, hack writing has a reputation for quantity taking precedence over quality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hack_writer

    • URBAN DICTIONARY DEFINITION for ‘Hack’:

      a person who is a professional at doing some sort of service, but does crappy work.

    • Could be referring to low quality writers like Jen, Chatty Cathy, Gold but more likely just a self-depreciative comment about reporters in general (including himself).

  44. I hope someone is keeping an eye on the brother……..and the rest of the Alexanders

    • The tweeter are. . .he has gone in and out of the court room. Hope he doesn’t hit any more walls. 🙁

    • BB my thoughts also.. All hell will break out in the courtroom if/when they say the jury is hung….. But I’m sure there will be guards in the court room.

      • Yeah, Cindy I think that would definitely be wise to have the bailiffs in force there…..

        • I think it would be a wise idea to put Stephen in handcuffs before the verdict is read if he is going to act out in such a way…. how can they even say that travis was so good when his family shows what he must have been like.

          • Wouldn’t it be the perfect example of irony if he attempted to attack Jodi (without her getting hurt of course) after the jury’s decision is announced? If I was writing/reading a fictional story…that would reveal the true nature of the beast.

              • And he was in that football stance just like TA, yelling, “fucking kill you, bitch!”

  47. Good Morning Hoping for a hung jury or one that comes back with life with a change to get out so she can hire experts to find out what happen

    • Welcome to the site Timewilltell 🙂 I am hoping for the best for Jodi as well.

  48. Very interesting C. Hughes is not missing any chance of being caught on camera spreading his vile untruths. Promoting his book of lies that is for sale, never missing a golden opportunity to profit off of his dead BFF. That man is despicable. I do hope that he will pay for his involvement in this circus. Always there to self promote. All he cares about is how much money Travis could make him dead or alive. Shameful.

  49. From what I understand is that a HUNG JURY is NOT A VERDICT at all. …A HUNG JURY is HUNG without any official ((written)) votes whatsoever. …It is not 8 to 4, nor is it 4 to 8, nor 1 to 11, nor 11 to 1. … And, it is not 6 to 6. …If anything, it is a vote of ZERO to ZERO, by no official ((written)) voting. …If it is a HUNG JURY it is a total failure of the court to prove anything more than it proved to the HUNG JURY in the penalty phase of the first trial. …If anything, it is that the sentencing re-trial jury rejects the guilty verdict of the first jury. …More information in the re-trial to prove that the first jury was snookered or tricked by the prosecutor.
    …So, the news media can not truthfully report that there was (for example) more votes for the Death Penalty than for life. …I feel that would be totally untruthful & media bias if they report on the ratio of votes because a HUNG JURY means that it was ((zero to zero)). …((IMHO)).
    …Hopefully we will have a HUNG JURY. …((((JODI))))…

  50. Speaking of Steven:
    “The Arizona Legislature appears headed once again to passing a bill that would allow Arizonans to carry concealed weapons into public buildings.”

  51. Elizabeth Erwin ‏@elizabetherwin 2m2 minutes ago

    Travis Alexander’s brother and #JodiArias mom in court…no sign of Arias, judge or attorneys.

    • It is very creepy for me that Steven has gone solo here. The man has a very hot temper, apparently suffers from PTSD and anything is possible in AZ.

      • I think he has Anger Management issues. If he doesn’t see a professional, this will ruin his life. He needs help.

      • Either it is because he is antsy and about to boil over the top…or perhaps he knows Jodi is telling the truth about TA’s violence and knows she shouldn’t be sitting there in a DP trial…Could he have been a victim of TA’s abuse just like Jodi was?

        • You know what. . .I believe he has either seen Travis’s behavior or been at the receiving end of his wrath. If you watch him at times he seems to be actually think it all over while the others are busy putting on a drama display or rolling eyes and crying. Hmmmm If he knows anything he should speak up and not be a part of his blood thirsty sisters revenge. It will eventually do them all in.

          • Also, I believe Samantha and Tanisha know it is the truth, all of it. They are cashing in.

          • I agree R. Love, I have noticed that faraway look in his eyes. Does make one wonder…

  52. I watched the first episode of a new tv series called Battle Creek. The monologue at the end of the episode was very powerful. An FBI agent talks to a teen that has killed 2 people and is pointing a gun to another person:

    SECOND CHANCES
    “Our actions don’t define us. Our soul does. We cannot be defined by our mistakes. We cannot let one thing – no matter how horrible – overpower everything else that we do in our life. And the only way to that is to make sure that everything else overpowers that mistake. We have that chance. As long as we’re alive, we have that chance.”

    If it’s deadlocked, it could take up to 90 days for a sentence. #JodiArias

    • Some have said that with either verdict she would be transferred within a day or two to Perryville. Would this be true even if she hasn’t yet been sentenced?

    • Poor, poor Tammy worried about her DVD sales. You are pathetic. Anyone who supports a lowlife abusing sexual pervert is sick IMO. All of these tweeters have sat right in that court room and have learned not one thing about the truth. Too caught up in their quest to self promote themselves.

  55. Elizabeth Erwin ‏@elizabetherwin 16s16 seconds ago

    There’s a different attorney at the prosecution table..it’s possible Judge Stephens is planning to hear other cases this morning. #JodiArias

  56. Tammy Rose ‏@News20Chopper 1m1 minute ago

    Defense could ask for a mitigation hearing before sentencing where #JodiArias’ family could speak as well as Alexanders.

  58. Elizabeth Erwin ‏@elizabetherwin 1m1 minute ago

    Yup, Judge Stephens working other cases this morning. #JodiArias jury still deliberating.

  59. This tweeted to Scoopy from one of her followers.

    @TrialDiariesJ Have you heard this Jen? Jury was NOT hung, asking for clarification on #5 #6 JSS couldn’t comment so read them the impasse..

    • Is that stating the jury was asking for clarification of mitigating factors 5 and 6??

          • Here is the list, copied and pasted from another thread:

            Mitigating factor #1: no prior criminal history #JodiArias

            Mitigating factor #2: #jodiArias was just 27 years old at the time of the murder

            mitigating factor #3: #JodiArias is remorseful

            Mitigating factor #4: #jodiArias suffered both physical and emotional abuse as a child

            Mitigating factor #5: #jodiarias suffered both physical and emotional abuse during relationship with #TravisAlexander

            Mitigating factor #6: abusive nature of relationship with TA caused her to suffer extreme emotional distress #jodiArias

            Mitigating factor #7: #JodiArias diagnosed with PTSD

            Mitigating factor #8: #jodiarias diagnosed with borderline personality disorder

            Mitigating Factor #9: #jodiarias psychological make-up couldn’t cope with relationship with #TravisAlexander

      • They have been discussing that all morning but I haven’t paid much attention to the sheeple.

    • I would think it would be improper to read the impasse instruction if they hadn’t declared themselves deadlocked. Here’s a tweet (from someone whose name we don’t mention here) and this (from the dark side) is even if they DID say they were hung:

      @xxxxxxxxxfox10 tweeted: Judge pushing jury to reach verdict might be seen on appeal as her advocating for death, because in this case hung=life.

      • Hmmm… does seem that way though..either that or she just DOESN’T want to be the one to sentence Jodi.

        • It does seem she would rather see someone sentenced to death than put her own political career in jeopardy. There’s an over abundance of secondary gains with all these unethical people.

    It’s Day 5. Will be interesting to see if any jurors can be swayed one way or another to break the deadlock. #jodiarias @jbarrycbs5

  63. The mitigation hearing before sentencing where Jodi’s mother, father, sister, etc. could speak would be asking JSS to give Jodi a chance to be released at 25 years, wouldn’t it? So with almost 7 years served plus time off for good behavior, she might be released in 15 years or so. Just a thought.

  69. I know I will anger many of you with this statement and I try to bite my tongue more often than you’ll ever know but if there was a god this circus never would have gotten to this point. A real god would know the kind of person Travis really was and we’d be celebrating Jodi being free and a perverted, two-faced, lying, deceiving, pedophile being dead.

    • ♥Your fine Joe. Everyone needs to decide for themselves but what I do know there certainly is a God but unfortunately there is a Devil also. The Devil never sleeps, always on task to gather has many souls as he can for his army against the Lord. As for me it is not hard to believe because the alternative would leave me in an eternity with people just like the Devil himself. . .. My husband used to say, “If they are going to heaven, Hell, I don’t won’t to go with them.” Thankfully he has realized it is better to deal with the evil here on Earth than have them keep us out of Heaven. Don’t let the evil in this world ruin your life in Eternity. The Devil is a sleek deceiving master manipulator and he had his grips on Travis and his friends. I’m thankful Jodi saved herself from the likes of them. God has a plan for Jodi and we don’t always understand but I have often wondered if it wasn’t to expose the Mormon/LDS Church for the cult it appears to be. The Mormons are powerful and so is the Devil. In my thinking, they are hand in hand. Whether you believe in God or not you are still important to me and especially to Jodi and her family.

    • Joe, I googled and read the story of biblical man named Job the other day. Even if you are not religious, it may help you see things in a different perspective. I am not religious. It was a narrative explanation that I read. Mind you, I am NOT, by ANY means trying to promote any religion or push ANY god on you…just was interesting to get a glimpse into why people might say, “God’s purposes don’t always agree with ours”. 😀

    • Joe, may I offer this,
      While I understand what you are saying, I could never doubt the Plan that God has for Jodi or any of us.
      Our inability to understand the “WHY does God allow this to happen” is our compassion for Jodi due to the “Actions of those doing a job” (ie prosecutor, witnesses, judge, lawyers) and the injustice of a “bad job at that” IMO.
      You may find it surprising that I have questioned this in my prayers. I asked for guidance from God to understand.
      Weird as this may sound, when I read your comment, my immediate thought was WOW your question/comment goes to my prayers last night in my asking Why. In my prayers I said “really because of the “issues” of others (prosecutor, judge, some of the witnesses; “Really does Jodi not get a break in her situation?” ‘Really, can the prosecutor be the way he is and Jodi not get a break in her situation”? Really, can the Judge make the decisions that she has made in this trial against Jodi and Jodi not get a break in her situation”? “Jodi is a child of God, doesn’t she get a break in her situation?” “Does it come down to “a win for those people in this trial (prosecutor, judge ect) and a loss for Jodi and her lawyers?”
      I do not believe God will allow this to happen. We as human beings have feelings and can not grasp the Why’s. The answer to them, for us, seems simple to us. God has human feelings too. He will guide Jodi & team in this ordeal. We may have to wait for our satisfaction of the answers. WE HAVE TO PRAY, AND LOVE GOD AND JODI AND HER FAMILY. We even have to pray and love the victims in this case.
      I thank you for your comment Joe. It has put a light in my thinking and now I am sure that I prayed the right things last night. God Bless you. GOD HAS JODI’S BACK. HE IS WITH HER ALL THE WAY.
      Prayers still on my heart today for all.
      God Bless everyone.

  70. Katie Conner ‏@KatieJConner 2m2 minutes ago

    Maria De La Rosa is in court, talking with #JodiArias mom

      • Debbie, there are more friends of the Arias family there. The tweeters just choose not to mention that to make it seem that Jodi doesn’t have anyone in court besides her mom.

        • That is good to know thanks Pandora, I worry about her mom this is very very hard on her.

  71. Does anyone know if JODI has a good lawyer lined up ready to overturn her murder charge

    • Joe, I am hoping and praying that Jodi will go the route of the Innocence Project in Arizona, and stay as far away from any lawyers as possible. It sounds like these lawyers jump straight to the notion of lawyers being necessary. The tell us we need to expect it to take 20 years to get to appeals. Does that sound like a good idea to you. Why would it take that long, we already have all the evidence we need along with the arguments to back it up. You are right about it being time to get things lined up with the Innocence Project, and get educated on what can be expected, and how long it will take. I’d like to see a committee from SJ’s home away from home start lining up and staffing (from our own eager, motivated, brilliant members, committees to keep the ball rolling.

      Do you know that Jade, for instance has created a 39 page defence for all of the evidentiary issues in Jodi’s case. It is called “The Emmaculate Deception Exposed. and it’s posted right now, right her on this website. Jade has maticulously defeated every falacy the crooked prosecutor tried to pawn off on Jodi’s case: Martines, Horne, and Flores’ lies are all defeated.. All you need to use a case like that in court is a couple of very large easles, with charts and graphs on flannel board and an effective presenter to serve as educator and motivator to explain each aspect of the case using the arguments they’ve already written. We have that document at our disposal, courtesy of Jade’s hard work. And this did not cost a million dollars. There are several others, but unlike the Circus trial, these people are producing quality, effective work out of love. Justiceforusall has also produced sound analysis to back up the evidence in Jodi’s case, and to dis-prove Juan’s fairy tails. I think his is called “An Argument for Reasonable Doubt.” Again the cost is love, and the product cannot be rivaled by that of a self-absorbed indifferent lawyer.’ The Innocence Project is based out of NAU in Arizona. Those folks do investigation. Did our lawyers do competent investigation. Those folks will probably include the defendant in their own case, like they’re supposed to do.
      Jodi’s lawyer instructed his secretary to hang up on Jodi and not to take any messages. In her letter begging to have him taken off her case, she disclosed that he would block her from communicating for four months at a time, up to fourteen months when she could not discuss her case with him and was in the dark about where it stood. I don’t believe their plan depends on them conditioning a defendant to expect it to be normal to wait 20 years to get an appeal. That is exactly what the expensive lawyers peddle, though. And you’re supposed to feel lucky. HELL NO !

  74. has anyone thought that maybe the juries that are apposed to death are trying to convince the others to vote with them because otherwise there is always the chance that JSS could give jodi life with parole after 25 years

  75. Good morning, cyber family!!!!

    I MADE IT! I’m back early from work, yay! haven’t had time to read up ^^^^

    Praying…..Let’s hope today is the day.

  79. Does anyone know a site that explains/discusses “life with a chance of release after serving 25 years?” I’m losing faith in Google, Yahoo and all the other g-d search engines. Looking for a discussion of this issue, not a 2-line explanation. Thanks.

    • Are these jurors just in and out of the deliberation room all day? Do they have ants in the pants or something? Sit down and deliberate FFS! Get it done already!

      • They do come and go way too often. Probably smokers. Or maybe it’s getting really heated/hostile in there and they just can’t stand each other and need to get out. They are apparently divided, those 8 seem to belong to one group and the rest to the other. Lifers and deathers maybe???

        • Seemed to me they’d been taking roughly the same breaks they’ve been given from court – and that they don’t all always go.

  86. I pray she gets LWP. He didn’t have to die, but Jodi didn’t deserve to be mind fkd by him. He hid behind his religion and everyone is so blind to what he did to her.

  123. Step away for a couple of hours and all hell breaks loose…..

    Get with it JSS…..

  125. Civil attorney probably means that they plan on taking Arias to civil court for money…however, they can sue till the cows come home but that won’t mean they will be able to collect a penny….you can not recover from folks who are already bankrupt….it is a wast of time and money for the Alexanders to pursue…but in that case let them have at it 🙂 🙂 🙂 bc the only ones it will cost is the Alexanders to pay their ambulance chaser !

    • Not HERE, BB – not in Stephens court.

      If their lawyer is in there arguing in Stephens court it is about their ‘rights’ as the victims in THIS case. Not the civil case.

    • Perhaps their civil attorneys should be checking into all the funds they have been receiving for the past seven years and so should the IRS.

      • Good idea…but if it is Mormon they are exempt from taxes…that conglomeration is under the guise of religion. GMAFB

    • I realize this Journee and BB but my heart is just aching for Jodi and her family. The Alexanders are extremely disturbed people. Evilness oozes from them. . . If there was any doubt to any one about Travis character just look at this family and their behavior. . .that sums them all up. Let this all come to an end before you start trying to suck the life out of someone. They just do not want their gravy train to stop, they might actually have to get a JOB!!! 😯 Let the Mormons take care of them.

  126. They are doing this so that any money jodi’s family had or is donated for the appeals will be immediately garnished towards any civil suits pedos family wins. Would be a smart move to start putting all accounts in a trusted reps name for jodi’s family

    What a disgusting group of people they are. Juan has taught them well.

  130. Since we are all speculating…perhaps the way the TA clan was hanging around to intimidate the jury after hours has qualified this for mistrial?

  133. Wait a minute!!!! Didn’t JSS give the first jury in the GUILT phase an ALLEN CHARGE? …A Dynamite charge & they found her guilty based on the judge’s (((persuasion to find Jodi guilty)))? …But it is NOT LEGAL for a judge in the state of Arizona to give an ALLEN CHARGE??? …((IMHO))…
    …Just because it is all over the news media about the ALLEN CHARGE is approved by the US Supreme Court, has anyone checked to see if it is legal in Arizona??? …Google: allen charge 1896 wiki
    or click on link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen_v._United_States_%281896%29
    ……It states: Allen v. United States (1896)
    …Scroll down to: Text of Allen charge
    …”Text of the Allen charge as approved for use in the United States district courts of the Fifth Circuit: ”
    …I clicked on the imbedded link: United States district courts …(of the Fifth Circuit).
    …I found that Arizona is not in the Fifth Circuit.
    …I also found that (my state, Louisiana), and (Arizona) are among those 23 states that have rejected use of the Allen charge.
    …Is it possible that JSS used the Allen charge illegally in the first guilt trial????
    …She may be stupid. ….Who would correct her? …
    …If JSS did not have legality to use the Allen charge in the (((guilt trial))), I think that would be a definite appeal on Jodi’s guilt verdict and she should walk out the front door. …(IMHO)…
    …But maybe I am wrong??? …Maybe the Allen charge is legal in Arizona. …Let’s look into this.

  138. I think Journee was right about a motion KN filed against the Alexander’s. She would have to rule on that before the verdict is read.

    Now with the “beefed up security” it won’t be long….

  139. Congratulations Jodi and Fam!! I cant tell u how relieved I am for the hung jury! I have been rooting for u all along, and honestly, I hope there is some chance that u could even be paroled some day. I was molested for the first four yrs of my life, and I so badly wish someone had gutted my perp before he’d had the chance to destroy our lives! It literally totally and completely destroyed me and left me a shell of a person. Perhaps my words are harsh, and I have no Idea if whatshisname was a chomo, but it is clear that he disrespected the wrong woman, and I hope that society will take this as a lesson as to what happens when you disrespect the woman ur sleeping with! Frankly, to b perfectly honest, I consider church-going to be a symptom of pedophilia, as so many of them hide in the church! Anyway, congrats, and I will hate Nancy Grace forever for her mind- numbingly ignorant comments about u. Keep ur spirits up, Jodi- I cant imagine how tough this has been on you.
