Jodi Arias Trial – Day 39

.
CLICK HERE FOR DAY 39 VIDEO RECORDING

It’s been quite eventful over the Easter recess, with juror #5 being called out and on the verge of being booted from the jury following their recent antics. This came to light last Thursday after a closed door hearing, following the impromptu evidentiary hearing testimony of HLN’s JINKASAURUS. Judge Pickles basically tried to keep one can of worms closed over Martinez’ grandstanding escapades, while inadvertently opening another.

Click here to read the 5 page defense “Motion for Mistrial – Juror Misconduct” document (PDF), filed on Sunday.

As for a mistrial being granted, I’d hope that wouldn’t happen. Yes, it’d certainly be good ammo for any appellate court after the trial (in the unlikely event it’s needed)… but more importantly, Victory for Jodi is now in plain sight… so let’s plough on from here and see it through to the end.

The wounded, weary & clueless Travis Taliban are now dropping like flies, as they finally start to realize they will be defeated… even more so now all their “hopes” ultimately rest on a Walmart receipt.

That’s what happens when you fly the false flag of Justice… and when all you’re really doing is hating and seeking retribution & vengeance. Justice never comes into it. It never has.

Remember… We are TEAM JODI and WE WILL BE VICTORIOUS.

Ain’t that the truth.

Jodi Arias defense calls for juror to be dismissed [ABC 15]

.
From ABC15:

Jodi Arias’ attorneys have filed a motion asking for a mistrial because of juror misconduct.

In the 5-page filing, Kirk Nurmi and Jennifer Willmott said the juror misconduct was discovered in sealed proceedings that took place last Thursday.

[hdplay id=145 width=500 height=300]

The attorneys are asking Juror 5 be removed from the jury because “statements Juror 5 made in front of her fellow jurors amounts to misconduct that inserted partiality in what is supposed to be an impartial body.”

Arias’ attorney claim Juror 5 is neither fair or impartial at this point making “her removal from the jury essential” to ensure Arias’ rights.

The motion said on March 28, a meeting was held with jurors to discuss an issue involving prosecutor Juan Martinez posing for pictures and signing autographs outside the courthouse.

During that hearing, information came out that “Juror 5 engaged in misconduct that affected more than one juror.”

Details about what specifically happened are not known because the information is sealed.

The attorneys are asking for a mistrial or that Juror 5 be removed from the jury.

Currently, there are 18 jurors sitting in on the trial. Only 12 will be picked to deliberate once closing arguments are done.

The other six are considered alternates.

The trial is expected to resume at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Jennifer Willmott – Opening Statements from Jan 2nd

.
In the midst of this prosecutorial misconduct riddled circus & reality TV show – I thought this would be a good time to post Jennifer Willmott’s Opening Statements from day 1 of the trial.

I had planned to write some more on Martinez’ showboating antics, but I’ve written too much about that stupid ass already.

So here again are the Opening Statements from January 2nd.

“Defense attorney Jennifer Willmott began her opening statement by telling the jury Arias killed Alexander in self-defense. She described the couple’s relationship as psychologically abusive and controlling, stating Alexander kept Arias as his “dirty little secret,” Meanwhile, Willmott stated Alexander repeatedly degraded Arias by telling his friends that she was a stalker.

On the day of the murder, Willmott said Arias was subjected to rough vaginal sex. Willmott stated Arias killed Alexander while she was defending herself against her angry ex-boyfriend after she dropped his new camera. Willmott discussed two time stamped photos taken on the day of the murder. One photo points up at the bathroom ceiling light after apparently accidentally falling. The other, a bloody photo of Alexander. Willmott concluded by telling the jury that if Arias had not chosen to defend herself in the one minute that passed in between those photos being taken, she would not be here today.”

Chris & Sky Hughes – The Mormon cover up continues

.
It’s gotta be said. Chris & Sky Hughes are the ultimate pair of lying bastards — and in that regard, they’re a perfect match for each other.

So when it came to the trial, they were ultimately faced with these 2 distinct choices:

[1] Helping Jodi by confirming TA’s mental & physical abuse of Jodi AND other women, together with their knowledge of his pedo-related antics and his age of attraction… or…

[2] Helping themselves by flat out denying everything they know, and denying everything they discussed in their email exchanges with TA.

It must have been a very difficult decision to make (not)… but they ultimately decided to help themselves and, in turn, keep all their Mormon chums happy. After all, why would they want to tell the truth about TA (and help Jodi) when it wouldn’t benefit them socially or financially?

As I stated in my original post back on January 30th… Chris Hughes already confirmed he’s firmly on the prosecution’s side, so sure he’s gonna do all he can to fly the flag for them, including stating to the media (on behalf of Martinez) that the TA letters were forged – even though he knows they were not. He knows, having seen some of them, that they’re genuine. He even wrote to TA to tell him he wasn’t treating Jodi right.

The email exchanges also specifically discussed TA’s “age of attraction” when it comes to children, which (as far as I recall) Sky was somewhat surprised at. This ties together the earlier pedophile rumors pertaining to TA and his preference for pigtails & 12 years old’s, does it not?

In fact both Chris & Sky Hughes emailed Travis telling him he was being abusive to Jodi back in 2007. This started to come out again in Alyce LaViolette’s direct testimony – despite repeated & futile objections from Martinez.

Check out the 2 specific video clips below from Alyce LaViolette’s testimony from last Thursday, where the “You Crossed The Line” email exchange & content is discussed specifically — including TA’s ongoing mistreatment of Jodi… his well known prior treatment & manipulation of other women… Sky’s statement that she wouldn’t even let her own sister date TA… TA’s “childhood issues”… and a bunch of additional information that Martinez certainly didn’t want disclosing for obvious reasons…

Then watch this very interesting Chris Hughes testimony – from the continuation of the evidentiary hearing on January 29th (Trial Day 10)…

[hdplay id=142 width=500 height=300]

The video below (up to the 14:00 mark)  includes Sky Hughes’ testimony from the Evidentiary Hearing, February 13th (Trial Day 18) — followed by Kirk Nurmi calling for a mistrial based on his “Greatest Hits” list of numerous counts of prosecutorial misconduct & court order violations by the state.

Taking into account Sky met TA (in 2001) prior to her marriage (in 2002)… at which point  she would have been in her early 40’s and TA would have been 23… the only question Jennifer Willmott didn’t ask her was how many times she slept with TA before and after she got married. The answer would have been interesting to say the least…

[hdplay id=58 width=500 height=300]

Finally, here’s an excerpt from yesterday’s USA Today (click here for full article):

What was not mentioned in court Thursday was the history of the emails. A defense filing from January 2011 details the efforts Arias’ attorneys went to obtain them. Initially the prosecution told the defense attorneys that there were no available text messages sent or received by Alexander and then was ordered to turn over several hundred.

Furthermore, according to the filing, the case agent, Mesa police Detective Esteban Flores, told the defense attorneys that there was nothing “out of the ordinary” among Alexander’s emails; about 8,000 were turned over to the defense in June 2010, including the Hughes emails.

The 2011 filing details the email contents, including “A response from Mr. Hughes … wherein he asserts that he believes Jodi would be his (Travis’) next victim and that Jodi was just another girl that he (Travis) was playing.” Alexander allegedly replied by saying “I am a bit of a sociopath.”

Other emails from Sky Hughes, the filing says, say that Alexander considered Arias to be a “booty call,” and said “How he, Mr. Alexander, was abusive to Jodi and … how he was beating her emotionally in part by making out with her without giving her a commitment.” And there is an email from another woman Alexander was seeing at the time “wherin she complains of Mr. Alexander’s conduct making her feel used and dirty.”

How much of those emails make it into testimony remains to be seen. Chris and Sky Hughes have already testified for the prosecution regarding an earlier allegation of misconduct by Martinez, but the topic of the emails was not discussed. They could be called back.

Chris & Sky Hughes… they wouldn’t be able to tell the truth if their lives depended on it.

Luckily for them, it doesn’t.

Happy Easter!

A Message from Dr Richard Samuels

.
Having recently exchanged emails with Dr Samuels and thanked his for his valued testimony, I also invited him to write a message for inclusion in the website.

Here’s the message he kindly sent me:

“Thanks to all of those who have expressed support for my testimony.  While I can’t comment specifically on the case until it is over, rest assured that the PTSD diagnosis is real as is memory loss during acute stress.  Those were the points I tried to make and hope that the message was clear enough for the jury to understand. Again, thanks for your support.” — Richard M. Samuels, Ph.D.

As Dr Samuels rightly stated to Martinez last week – You have no knowledge in this area – because you can’t study something for 35 minutes and know more about it than someone who’s studied it for 35 years.

Ain’t that the truth…

Jodi Arias Trial – Day 38 (cancelled)

>>> TRIAL CANCELLED FOR TODAY <<<
RESUMES THURSDAY @ 9.30 am PT/MT

Click here to access the “Defendants Motion for Protective Order” document, which relates to this morning’s hearing where Jodi’s attorneys are trying to seal the billing records they submitted, which have been requested by the media (HLN/Turner). Allowing public access to these records would reveal privileged information to the prosecution regarding who the defense have interviewed, what they’ve investigated, their strategy for trial and the penalty phase (if applicable).
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Moving on…

So now we have the media referring to Dr Richard Samuels as “the amnesia quack” and Alyce LaViolette as “the lesbian social worker”. But the fact is, had this Dream Team of accomplished & distinguished experts been testifying for the prosecution, there’s no doubt that the very same media would be singing their praises from the rooftops 24/7. That’s the difference.

It’s not only Martinez that’s doing every abuse victim a grave disservice with his questioning the very existence of PTSD & DV, but the media are following suit. What a bunch of ignorant clueless bastards they really are.

Here are a few comments posted yesterday which sum everything up:

(gibby gibson) — “…Alyce LaViolette is absolutely NAILING the type of abuse Jodi endured!!!! It has been such a tremendous concern–this whole minimizing of the “abuse” that Jodi suffered. LaViolette is completely clarifying that non-extreme abuse is just as real as the obvious type. Take that and shove it, HLN. I’m sorry, but those people who have been criticizing Jodi for making a mockery of “real abuse” are a bunch of Aholes!”

(MB) — “The Travis Taliban and HLN have joined forces to roll back the progress on women’s rights and awareness of abuse and rape. They present themselves as a legitimate news outlet with a progressive agenda, but at the end of the day they are nowhere to be found when it comes to women and girls.

Besides, who are THEY to decide what “real” abuse is? Ms Violette has more experience and understanding in her little pinkie than they do collectively.”

I couldn’t have said it better myself.

By the way — Vladimir Gagic will be hosting a live radio program TODAY at 12 noon AZ/Pacific time, to coincide with the noon trial recess. Click here to listen in to the program. You can also call in & ask questions during the live show @ (718) 305-6376, or Tweet your question @vlgaIt should be a very interesting & insightful call, as always.

So let’s prepare for another awesome day as Alyce LaViolette continues with her direct testimony.

Remember… We are Team Jodi – and WE WILL BE VICTORIOUS.

Never question it.

Never doubt it.
