First up, Jodi would like me to let you know that Bryan Carr is a loser. Everything he says is a lie and he is NOT a friend of Jodi’s. All the info he’s putting out in his TV interviews is BS.
Jodi also has a Twitter account @ Twitter.com/jodiannarias

The Dateline NBC documentary – “Along Came Jodi” – which aired March 1st has just been uploaded to the site. Click the pic below to watch it in full:

Zach Billings was one of the roommates that discovered the body on June 9th – or so he says. The thing is, when asked about the last time he saw TA (as noted in Gloria Esteban’s police report), he stated Thursday morning, as he was on his way out to pick up his girlfriend. Assuming he didn’t mean Thursday June 5th, we’ll take that to mean Thursday of the previous week – that being May 29th.
Now, when asked the same question by NG, he says he last saw him on the Sunday.
Here’s a brief video clip of the question, the answer and the gulp after it:
[hdplay id=91 width=500 height=300]
Billings also stated (in the same police report) that he did the laundry on Saturday June 7th, then when asked again he changed it to Wednesday June 4th.
In a follow-up interview (further on in the report) he then stated he wasn’t positive he’d done the laundry on Tuesday morning… but went on to say the clothing found in the washing machine was either TA’s or Enrique’s because TA “would never wash his whites with colors”.
Even though Billings is a dumb as a box of rocks, I’m not saying he was directly involved in the events of June 4th 2008, but I’m quite certain he knows a lot more than he’s letting on. I actually think he intended to do the laundry on the 7th… he saw all the stuff in the machine… then he went into the bedroom & bathroom to investigate… hence the shoe impression found on the tiled floor in the bathroom – see pic below…
And here’s a screenshot of the plan as shown in court:
So it’s highly likely that he made the discovery a few days prior to everyone else, but decided to keep quiet about it for reasons only he knows.

Going on Martinez’ performance to date, we all know what a below-par prosecutor he is… and how Jodi has run him ragged all week… but it’s always good to see all his shortfalls explained in detail.
With that in mind, check out the following overview of Martinez – kindly posted here yesterday by UNF – and see how many you can relate to.
The final score from last week: Jodi 5 – 0 Martinez.
Note: His “issues” could also be connected to him being the seventh of eight children born to illiterate Mexican farm workers. Enjoy…

“Some notes on the performance of prosecutor JM (by a non-US law student):
1. JM is a painting-by-numbers type lawyer; more a mechanical grafter than natural talent.
2. During XE, his method dictates that one must keep the witness on an extremely short leash, allowing yes/no answers only, without elaboration. This indicates fearfulness of losing control, due to a lack of ability to intelligently improvise on the basis of any unexpected information which may emerge.
3. However, there are some major problems with following this rule of thumb too rigidly:
– A) in order to paint a coherent mental picture of the guilty scenario for the jury via only yes/no answers, the formulation of the questions put becomes extremely important. To do this properly, one must have a masterful command of the facts, a vivid imagination, unbreakable focus and a clinical command of the language in use. JM is rather weak on all 4 here, but ‘compensates’ by hardly listening to the witness and persistently trying to modify his questions after having gotten the answer. He thus wastes energy fighting the witness instead of skillfully eliciting the testimony required to prove his case.
– B) the witness, if allowed to elaborate, may inadvertently offer evidence favourable to the prosecution. It appeared to me that several times he has thoughtlessly prevented JA from helping herself to more rope (pun intended).
– C) if done in an over-emotional manner (JM’s voice often cracks up with frustration) in front of a jury it comes across as bullying or unnecessary hostility, thus generating reactive sympathy for the defendant.
4. He lacks grasp of the English language, often struggling to find words to express himself. JA is well ahead of him on this front and has the (for JM, infuriating) knack of making it painfully obvious by fixing on the subtle difference between what he said and what he wished he had said.
5. He appears to have a short temper and something of a sensitivity about being Hispanic, as seen by his accusatory jibe that Nurmi thinks “all people with Spanish names are the same” after innocently mixing him up with Flores early in the trial.
6. He would evidently benefit from having assistant counsel but apparently ego does not admit this. Possibly connected to his hinted inferiority complex.
7. He is not enjoyable to watch and his excited voice not scoring points will grate on the jurors ears, so they tune out his noise as much as possible.
[ atm, a hung jury looks to me the most likely outcome ]”

Well… I think the little guy has finally lost the plot. Shouting & gesticulating for 3 hours about gas cans, number plates & gas station receipts just ain’t gonna a cut it with the jury… that’s assuming they didn’t fall asleep during his latest jizz-less performance.
All it proves is that Martinez has no evidence. He’s trying to win this case based on assumption, speculation, hearsay & hot air. But there’s just no way all 12 jurors are gonna be convinced beyond and to the exclusion of all reasonable doubt. He knows that already. He’s known it for a long while. So has everyone else.
AIN’T GONNA HAPPEN.
I know it must be beyond infuriating for the TravisTown haters & pedo-huggers, knowing they’re not gonna get the “result” they want… but they had better get used to it – and fast.
Latest score after 4 days?
Jodi 4 – 0 Martinez.
Leave your comments below as day 5 of the Martinez cross examination pissing match continues – and maybe even concludes today.
He’s now got enough rope… let’s see if he hangs himself. We can but hope.

Yesterday, Jodi once again successfully derailed the Martinez 3-ring circus and accompanying sideshow.
Here’s one of the more pertinent questions he asked…
“So what exactly happened at the time, if nothing happened before you knew nothing was going to happen? Yes or no? Right?”
Jodi 3 – 0 Martinez.
Let’s get ready for a repeat of that today, as Jodi takes one step closer to victory with day 4 of her cross examination. Hopefully, lunch will be included.

A new week, and day 2 of Jodi’s cross examination begins.
As I said yesterday — before you can convince anyone of anything, you have to be 100% convinced of it yourself… and this is where Martinez struggles. He knows this wasn’t pre-meditated murder… as much as he’d like it to be… so he has to put on an act and pretend it was. This is precisely why he’s continually losing the plot and (in turn) losing the case.
So let the little guy carry on with his aerobic styled pissing match antics, and Jodi can continue to knock him flat and stamp “dickhead” on his forehead multiple times.
I can’t really see either of them changing their approach this week – and why would they?

Joking aside for a minute — which is sometimes hard to do when talking about Martinez — but it really is gonna take a truly monumental effort of epic proportions on his part to prove pre-meditation, and to prove it beyond (and to the exclusion of all reasonable doubt) to all 12 jury members. And the fact is, with the tools he’s got to work with, he ain’t gonna be able to do that. Plain & simple.
The haters and the TravisTown pedo-huggers had better get used to that – and fast.
Martinez could cross examine Jodi every day (excluding Friday’s) for the next 6 months, and he still wouldn’t manage it. The burden of proof is (and always will be) on Martinez to prove what he thinks happened. No amount of showboating is gonna cut it in this grossly overcharged fiasco.
But to his credit, he is giving it his best shot. After all, that’s what he does. That’s his thing. And even though his aerobic-style antics continue to wind us up with effortless ease, we can’t really fault him for that. Kirk & Jennifer and doing their thing… Gloria Esteban is doing his thing (even though nobody knows what that is, including himself), the judge is doing her thing… as is the court clerk, the stenographer, the live broadcast crew, the eye rolling goons is the gallery – and everyone else involved. And yes, Martinez is doing his thing too. He’s on a mission… and so are we.

The thing is, before you can convince anyone of anything, you have to be 100% convinced of it yourself… and this is where Martinez struggles. He knows this wasn’t pre-meditated murder… as much as he’d like it to be… so he has to put on an act and pretend it was (he did the same in the Doug Grant trial – click for info). This explains (in part) his continual losing of the plot with poprocks, tootsie pops, hair colors, baptisms & diary stuff.
Personally, I don’t keep a diary… but if I did, I’d know that at some point (somehow) someone else is gonna end up reading it. And with that in mind, I’d only ever write about general stuff that I’d be ok with being generally known. If I were Jodi, I certainly wouldn’t have written about catching someone else jerking off to pictures of kids (whoever it was) – and for those same reasons. So yes, just because it wasn’t written in her diary doesn’t mean it never happened.
But at the end of the day… and several weeks from now after the “Jodi Arias reality TV show” is over, and the relevant dust has finally settled on this trial… it’ll be largely remembered as the trial Martinez lost. It happens sometimes when you overcharge a case without any conclusive evidence. Just ask Jeff Ashton… he knows that only too well.
So as I said a last week…
And armed with very little aside assumption, speculation, hearsay, hot air (and a few photographs), it’s ultimately gonna come down to Jodi’s word against Martinez’. And despite the valiant efforts of the little guy to turn this into a pissing match — there’s just no way all 12 jurors are gonna be convinced beyond all reasonable doubt. He knows that already. He’s known it for a long while. So has everyone else.
So let’s not stress too much over the verdict. Why? Because it’s already been decided. It’s just gonna be several more weeks before it’s “officially” announced.
And if you’re still getting worked up & stressed out every day over Nancy Grace and her ongoing BS coverage, I have a simple solution for you. Stop watching her. Simple as that. Just shut it out, remove yourself from all negativity completely and quit wasting your energy… whether it’s NG, JVM, VP, some other website, some haters’ comments or anything else. The same applies. Rise above it all.
Stay positive and keep the faith, as always.
Remember… We are Team Jodi – and WE WILL BE VICTORIOUS.
You can mark my words on that.
Have a Happy Sunday!
Onwards…

It’s gotta be said. Gus Searcy did an awesome job of chopping Martinez down to size the other week… but Jodi is already well on the way to doing even better.
Prosecutor Fail? You’d better believe it.
Not only has Martinez tried (once again) to prove that battered woman syndrome doesn’t exist — and in turn belittled every single abuse victim out there — but he’s now trying to do the same with memory loss. So what about next week? Will he try and prove cancer doesn’t exist too?
Anyways… in the midst of all his aerobic-style ground-breaking “pop rocks & tootsie pop” revelations, here’s a brief clip from the legendary little guy’s performance yesterday…
[hdplay id=73 width=500 height=300]

Unlike the little guy, I think Jodi has been reading Sun Tzu’s book “The Art of War”… because she’s quickly sized him up, disarmed him, honed in on his weak points, played him like a veritable fiddle AND stamped “dickhead” on his forehead multiple times without him even noticing.
As he said himself with one of his more pertinent questions… “You’re saying that……. isn’t it?”
Let’s hope he can keep this clueless performance up for a good while longer.
Here’s a comment from the 1,600 posted yesterday, which says it all:
“Jodi you are my new HERO! I just finished watching the end of the prosecutions ridiculous attempt at a cross and you stayed calm, cool and collected. I am in your corner. You stand for every girl who has ever been used and abused by some creep I can tell you are a very intelligent and sweet person. You cannot measure a person’s worth by their worst act. Yes I know what you did was wrong, but I know it was done for a very good reason. I wish you all the best of luck and know we are all beside you!” – Jesse
