Jodi Ann Arias shot and stabbed her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander to death

[eliqueang]

OMG....I totally forgot about that song....

I went to your house
Walked up the stairs
I opened your door without ringing the bell
I walked down the hall
Into your room
Where I could smell you
And I shouldn't be here, without permission
I shouldn't be here

So forgive me love
If I cry in your shower
So forgive me love
For the salt in your bed
So forgive me love
If I cry all afternoon

Whoa....

wheres the part about the doggy door?

[zeebee]

I have to say I'm a little jealous of MissMandy for getting to talk to Martinez... LOL

I'm very jealous!!!

MissMandy, How did you get in? How early did you have to be there? Was there a line?

Did you have to sit on Jodi's side because Travis's side was full?

Last night I saw Creepy Gus on Drew's show. He said Hoedi called him at 3am June 5th crying hysterically and told him she killed Travis. Did I hear that correctly?!? Why the hell didn't he call 911 and report this?!? He should be locked up for being a f'n creepy dumbass!!!

Here is a link to it, but I can't listen at work. And I can't read lips so someone else watch it and let us know :)

I wondered about the whole BCP/condom deal. WHAT IF.................that "doctor appointment" she had.........was an abortion that Travis made her get??? I'm just SAYING. I know it's a bizarr-o off the wall theory, but I'm not counting ANYTHING out at this point. Maybe he gave her a grand worth of cash and told her to take care of it...and the checks she wrote him, paying him in installments for the abortion payment or something? I don't know...I know that would be totally against his morals and religion, but they weren't exactly living by the code. I can see something crazy like THAT driving her psycho-ass off the cliff. Making her destroy the life they created together. That's a huge motive. Don't mind me if I sound insane, this trial has got me crazy beans!

Not that I believe anything that comes out of her mouth but according to her timeline wasn't that drs appt back before she said they were officially dating, when he said she should date other people, and before she claims that they had peen-in-vag sex?

IMO? Because he is lying his ass off, as Martinez said, he just wanted the limelight. After supposedly not being able to be there for the hearing he shows up in person only to throw his hands up when he is not needed. He could have just testified by phone, he did make sure to get his media restriction lifted though!

I think that's an interesting theory. I think if she were pregnant and had an abortion, she would definitely use that against him. I think Travis would want an abortion because if she were to get pregnant, everyone would know he obviously had premarital sex. However, I don't think she was pregnant or else we would have heard how mean he was by making her kill their baby. Unless, it comes out today.

You don't sound crazy. Anything is possible in this case. Great thinking!

wheres the part about the doggy door?

HAAAAAAA!! HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! Good One!!!

Sing along with me now, same song style:

I...went to your house
through that doggy door
went through your shit and I done lost my damn mind...
searched your hard drive
read all your mail
then I slept on your bean bag and I
shouldn't pee here...
might leave a trace
I shouldn't pee here......

LOL!

Ahhh!! That god damned timeline again!!! BLAST IT ALL!!! LOL

[Bacon]

Ahhh!! That god damned timeline again!!! BLAST IT ALL!!! LOL

Ha! At this point I feel like everything must have happened all at the same time because Nurmi can't seem to keep the questioning going in any sort of coherent fashion. Then, now, later, at this rate we'll probably jump ahead to where Jodi sees herself in 5 years from now before we actually get to June 2008...

He's a lying sack. No wonder he a Jodi hung out.

[ImBatman!]

Ugh! I have to go to work today

[wasthinking]

Cars question, first she claims she had HER car hooked up to Uhaul, decided to let the bank have that car.
Switches to BMW that she blows up
Rents a car for the killing
So, WTH was she driving after the killing and the rental went back after Ryans house?

[zeebee]

He's a lying sack. No wonder he *and Jodi hung out.

Sorry for the typo.

I agree. I'm pretty sure that if she'd had an abortion, we would have heard all about how Travis made her kill her baby.

I also think it's unlikely that Travis would have wanted her to have an abortion. Those conservative pro-life religions really really drill that "abortion is murder" thing into them at a young age.

True! Yeah, we all know Travis was living 2 lives...and he definitely would've been mortified if all his friends and the church members found out that he got someone knocked up, plus he allegedly told all his friends that Jodi wasn't "marriage material" - so, he knew he wasn't going to be with her forever. I don't know, maybe you're right...maybe Martinez will pull it out of her somewhere during cross. Although...if she DID have an abortion, wouldn't there be a medical record. Can a trial usurp the patient/doctor confidentiality with a capital murder case?? SO many questions!!!

[rdeadline]

Good morning! Will they get to the murder today? I don't think so.

I'm pretty sure they can get medical records with a warrant.

BTW - another word to add to Jodi's astounding vocabulary "I wrote the email to Abe at Travis's behest..."
Surreptitiously
Contemporaneously
Behest

Any other gems?

[I doubt it]

Uh-oh. Suppose she went to Mesa to tell him she was pregnant. He told her to get abortion, which she considered killing baby/herself - so she killed him in self-defense of baby?

[Shahoolie11]

I'm pretty sure they can get medical records with a warrant.

Maybe Martinez has already been there done that, and is locked and loaded!

[songbirdsong]

[zeebee]

Maybe Martinez has already been there done that, and is locked and loaded!

I'm not sure how a pregnancy would help the prosecution.

[CKINGJUSTICE]

HIIIII GUYS!!! Ahhhhh....been a long day - had to drive home after trial so sorry for posting so late. They are really strict with phones in there so I basically had my phone off majority of the day (aka- unable to keep up/post). Anyways, been on for the past 1/2 hour trying to catch up! You guys are too funny. And yes- you found me!

Ok I have lots to say but will give a summary - to start.

So-- had a quick chat with Martinez in the morning- he came up to a few of us that were waiting to get in. Basically, he told us that it's really hard sitting there through this part of the trial - defense questioning Jodi. He said this while shaking his head- you can definitely see the frustration. He shook all of our hands and we all told him a little something like how much we appreciate what he's doing, blah blah. He then said things should 'pick up soon'. Ahhhhh...I like him.

So yesterday the judge instructed us that we were to have NO facial expressions whatsoever, but today-there were no instructions. Uhhhh...ya...I'm pretty sure I took advantage of that. It's just so hard sitting there not wanting to roll your eyes, sighing, laughing at the BS, etc. I'm pretty sure I did all of the above at some point during the first half of her testimony today. I mean, really??? She was BURYING herself!!!

Ok-my observations by sitting in the gallery:

Jodi- CREEPY. No way around that - and that's the best way to explain it. She is frail and so plain and boring looking, but I immediately got a creepy vibe. I was pretty close to her (especially this afternoon) so I got a good look. I really can't explain it, but it still gives me chills thinking about it. Not exaggerating. She looks so EMPTY. I can definitely understand when people explain that she would stare right through them. Although she didn't look directly at me where I was able to gauge that, but I could still tell. It's just straight up weird. And it's not because I know what she did. The 'aura' is just there.

Jury- awwww man - I couldn't keep my eyes off them. They are pretty hard to read- they all stay very serious and look either at Jodi or at Nurmi. Back and forth, back and forth. There were a few that were regularly taking notes, and for the most part, the rest look like they're listening intently-with a few exceptions: yesterday while the sex tape was playing (which btw- how boring was that?! I was very unimpressed with their phone sex 'skills' lol) Anyways, at 2 points in the tape there was one young guy (late 20s/early 30s?) that was holding back laughter. It. Was. Awesome. Once while Travis was 'complimenting' Jodi's lady parts (AHAHAHA!) and the other time when Travis was singing the 'National Anthem'. I wanted to crack up too! He straight up dissed Jodi! Lmao. Anyways, I took that as a good sign- he obviously wasn't buying the humiliation BS. And then as I mentioned on Dr. Drew- about 1/2 hour into the tape, the jury looked irritated. Like it was a waste of time, they weren't moved, get on with the show. Today, they walked in all having the stoic look. They looked more tired than yesterday tho. I watched to see if any of them looked at Jodi (some did) and if they smiled at her (I didn't see any). Although yesterday, somebody else in the gallery told me they saw one of them smile at her because she was smiling at them (don't remember if it was a guy or girl). Anyways, they were NOT having it in the afternoon today. There was obvious annoyance, frustration and impatience when Jodi was looking through the text messages (lots of shifts and head tilts). After that first long break- they were basically done. By the third time Jodi was reviewing, there were sighs, slight eye rolling, swiveling in chairs, one guy whispered something to another and they both chuckled- and then lots of them started looking at the gallery I saw a lot of them looking at JA's family. Thought that was interesting. I thought all of that was a good sign. Got the feeling they're not digging all of the BS. They showed LOTS of annoyance with Nurmi, especially at a specific point when Nurmi said something like 'before I get into xxx, let's go back real quick to...' (I wanted to scream so bad at that point. Literally wishing I was watching the live stream instead so I could!)

BTW- during these long @ss breaks (wtf were you looking at Jodi?! Ho-lee shit!) all I could think of was the sarcastic-filled conversations that were going on here at MDS. If you happened to catch me smirking, that is definitely what I was imagining.

Couple more random observations:
Jodi's demeanor gets really lax when the cameras are off. I know we've all agreed she is acting up on the stand, but I am now confirming that. F-ing crazy @ss.

Travis' family is amazing. They all hold a very professional demeanor and they show there are there for business.

Jodi's fam notsomuch.

JM looks smaller in person. (Have I said yet that I really like him??? )

Nurmi looks smaller too. No, really. He's still big, but not ginormous like he does on TV.

Overall, I am SO glad I got to attend the two days. I am crazy for doing it- I won't deny that when people make fun of me- BUT I'm not the only one. Man oh man, I was hanging with some strange peeps today!

Oh- and still no jury questions in the basket!!

I know there's much more to share, but I'll start there. Any q's???

Can't wait for tomorrow! I'll be back here in the mrng to watch along with you all!

Knew you'd have an awesome report. Still jealous, lol. Only question I have is how did the jury react when Martinez got that few minutes at Jodi yesterday, could you see a difference?
