    Is there a way for the Judge to ban that juror from being there? I'm guessing not since she was allowed to stay today. Would they really be able to appeal or have a mistrial? With the Judge allowing her to be there?
    i wonder what alyce said too - cuz isn't it knda illegal for her to do that?? i saw alyce shoot samatha a couple of mean looks when samantha rolled her eye

    Do you think she apologized for saying Travis wasn't a victim?

    If she did apologize for that, I can't imagine it helping. She still called him a perpetrator of domestic violence.

    Back before I found MDS, I was on the In Session threads on FB (Thank GOD I found you guys!) But there was a large group of people that wished they could leave flowers on Travis' grave. I live about 40 miles from the cemetery, so I volunteered (and paid for the flowers- I couldn't imagine trying to ask for money from complete strangers... it just felt weird) I schlepped my mom and daughter with me as I thought that I would have to find his headstone on my own, and it's a LARGE cemetery. The people there were so helpful! Gave me a map and it was a snap to find. I left two bouquets and a note from "us". (I was expecting to find lots of flowers there, but there was only one little plastic flower sticking up out of the ground.) Anyway, here it is.

    ""Tanisha Sorenson I really dont agree that Juror 5 meant anything bad from showing up, the sweet girl put so much of her time in to this case and she prob just wants to be there for emotional reasons, I feel bad for her.

    kinda sounds like she didn't do anything wrong to get kicked off
    TY for posting this... Kinda makes me feel relieved, in a way.

    It seems like a selfish and spiteful move. She has already caused a near mistrial and now wants to cause another one? She needs to get over herself and shown the door.

I was shocked at the vitriolic criticism expressed.

    I am puzzled why anyone would hate any thread in particular? Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, but I am puzzled by the hatred for an entire thread. If people aren't interested in this particular thread, why not just skip reading it?

    I am also puzzled and insulted by the scathing comments about the participants on this thread in general. Why make a thread about a high profile trial then detest the people who come to your site to post on it? Don't you want more people to participate on MDS?

    I had not gone to premium yet, but I was about to when the thread was closed for several days, which was off putting for me. Then the new thread started, and things were mostly going well, now this new slap. As a newer participant, these things do not make me feel like MDS is a place where I am welcome. If that is the intention, great, mission accomplished. If that is not the intention (to make new people feel unwelcome), then perhaps a different approach might be better.
    I have to agree with you, Brillig. I, too, have seen some members who post here, and then go on other threads and trash this one. I came here BECAUSE of this thread, and I joined because of it. It's too bad, because I doubt I'll have much reason to be here, once this trial is over, either. There is a fabulous group of people on here, and a handful of assholes, for lack of a better word. This is a paying site, yet we are "closed down" and have "privileges" taken away until we can learn to be adults?? WTF?! How about weeding out the regular troublemakers, and warning them. Then, if they don't change and cool it, ban them out of the thread. Some people will simply NEVER play nicely, because they love the rush of causing shit. Just saying....

    Access to the Premium Member, Deleted Threads, and Hate Mail boards; the ability to edit your posts; and I think maybe a sticker (do you still get the sticker?)

    The biggest perk of course being that your name is in red -- totally worth it IMO.

    The "circle jerk of hate" isn't even close to being unique in this thread, and I can't understand any MDSer dissing this thread because of it. That seems truly disingenuous (eg. any thread on this site that involves juggalos sets off a whirlwind shitstorm of hate).
    People are hating this thread because of these reasons:
    1. hundreds of off-topic posts (like my own right now) every hour
    2. bickering and fighting over the karma system
    3. short meaningless posts that have no content other than a smilie
    4. members reporting posts just because they disagree
    5. utter lack of interest in any of the other threads or articles on MDS
    6. fringe loons who represent the very worst refugees from both JAII and the State Facebook page
    Ma'am, what is hard to explain about a person breathing or not breathing? what is so difficult? why is that a difficult concept for you?

    I regret signing up, too. One of the "benefits" was being able to see who the reps were from. Well, that is no longer a benefit. And I don't see any others that interest me. This place has gone to hell in a handbasket because of a few troublemaking assholes. I used to really enjoy the dialogue and banter, present here. It's no longer the same.

    It's very strange. The trial I served on went though every single alternate (we assign the alternates here) due to excusing FOUR jurors and it would be really odd and uncomfortable to see any one of them return to sit in the audience.

    It was explained. Just not in the Jodi thread.

    How could she possibly be promoting justice by parking her ass there and creating problems? She may have been pro-prosecution, who knows, but she is risking this whole trial by being an elephant in the room.

    THAT was very nice of you, and a great reminder of what the trial is for, Travis' once full of life remains are under that granite stone.

    Thank you long time member Brian, for the above. The clich? is cyberspace can bring out the worst, people will speak in ways they never would in person.

    The cost to join is really cheap, $12. cost of lunch or a couple fraps, with all the above perks.

    Pretty sure the rep system will be back, I think we are on "time out" because of serial smiters. I am fine without it, too distracting. I just turn the other cheek rather than getting into it.

    Pretty much everyone has something funny or enlightening to say here, I appreciate that. The fluff has really been kept to a minimum.

    She may have trouble 'weaning' herself away. She may not even know how to watch it live if she has been following all the admonitions. But really she should stay away rather than draw attention. I had always heard she had tri colored hair, but did not picture her correctly at all.

    Exactly. Didn't she make a "statement" saying she didn't want to direct attention away from the trial?

    Dearest Coconut: You can't base someone's character on their hair. Perhaps, she showed up because she cares. She has the right, no?
