[Harlette]

according to reports dad was abusive- isn't that just jodi's report? she didn't interview any one else

Neon lime green is not a slimming color.

I'm a little late in the game here, is that creature in the lime green a male or female?

Rumor has it that it's female but we have no corroborating evidence. Son of Jabba the Hut.

I have to LOL at this!!

[Saffron]

This is what I DON'T get about ALV.....why, on earth, would she apologize to Jodi for reading the journals? That just sounds SO odd to me. She is apologizing for reviewing the evidence in a criminal case that is part of her job that she's been retained for?? WTF....that makes NO sense.

It sounds to me like LaViolette went into this treating Jodi like an abused, frightened woman who needed to be treated with utmost gentleness. Also, it was a manipulative gesture in order to gain Jodi's trust so she could evaluate her more easily.

[wasthinking]

Jodi's ugly blue shirt looks like a waitress uniform

I wonder why her mama doesn't make sure she gets shampoo. Does the jail take away shower rights?

[Peace Corpse]

What Lisa Andrews says doesn't make it stalking. As soon as you invite your stalker in for Guacomole and cunnilingus, she's not your stalker anymore, she's your special ladyfriend.

Travis told people Jodi was a stalker. He also told people they could make a ton of money selling legal insurance. You see where I'm going?

Actually Pre-Paid Legal is not legal insurance. It is a program where you pay 26.95 a month to receive discounted access (up to 30 percent) to any type of attorney you may need. You also get 3 free letters per year you can have an attorney compose for you if needed for any issue. You also get identity-theft protection and a free will created for you.

It's a great service. I have it and have used it often in my biz.

But she's color coordinating with her boogers!

Okay, a quick recap of my experience. I did not take notes so I will provide you what I have from memory, Poppycock will have much more later! It was so great meeting her, we had a great conversation. So, here goes.....Juan is a very small man! Nurmi is freaking huge! Stabby is a waif at this point, really tiny. i watched her watch the jurors when they exited and she really is studying close. Courtroom is fairly large, from tv, it looks like where Stabby sits is close to the gallery observers when in fact it is probably about 20 feet or so. I had an aisle seat next to one HLN correspondent and Katie Wicks. Spent a lot of time taking to both of them during breaks. By the way, Katie is a very sweet woman. Seats were comfortable, maybe leather or some sort of pleather movie theater type. The jury box is rather large, they have seats that swivel, saw several jurors swiveling around as they were listening. Juror 2 seems to spend a lot of time looking at Stabby, juror 7 seems like he has checked out. It is weird to see juror 5 seat empty. Juror i believe 9 has a ponytail and really seems antsy, have not seen him take any notes. Actually, no questions were put in the box while i was there.The afternoon session started out with Juan and I have to tell you, he is not loud at all. In fact, you can barely hear him. ALV you can hear fine since she has a mic in front of her. Juan questioned for about 30 minutes till no more questions. Redirect, I could hardly keep my eyes open. During one of the breaks I was standing right next to ALV while she was talking to her friends. I also walked out for the 10 minute recess with Flores. I did not say anything because I was warned by a trial regular to be very careful what you say even when not in the courtroom. I have no pictures, sadly because that same trial regular told me that they watch for people even outside taking pictures and will make you delete them on the spot. Poppycock, not knowing this got a bunch of pictures and as far as I know did not have to delete them. Lucky for her. I did get my business card autographed by Katie and she wrote justice for Travis and her name. Travis family look really worn down. Stabby's mother was her usual self, chewing gum and smiling and laughing. I remember more but for now, you can ask me whatever questions you have and I will answer them as well as I can. Thanks.

Great notes! Thanks for posting

According to Al-ICE, the grandparents said he was a meanie and brother Carl said he has a short fuse with his own children now that he is an adult with a family.

Yes, the best that Alyce could come with for an example from Stabby's brother Carl was that he felt he got his lack of patience with his own kids from his Dad.

If lack of patience is abuse....?

Thank you!!! I have been thinking about just taking a SW flight to go to the trial! Im only a in NM..would it be worth a trip?

[faq_q]

Oh, and I plugged MDS to everyone I was talking to so if we get a few more members....it was good advertising...

[olgasbunghole]

Thats a female. Jodi's new BFF (not counting her lesbian lovers in jail)

Ha Ha...... thank you for clearing that up for me :) I've heard about a saying amongst inmates: "gay for the stay" so that goes right along with the fact that ms.stabby has a bizarre camelean ability!

[Brillig]

True but it is a Herp enhancing color. Brings out the red.

Ewwww!

Rumor has it that it's female but we have no corroborating evidence. Son of Jabba the Hut.

Or in the Icelandic naming tradition: Donovan Jabbasdottir

What's your assessment of the jury

Atta boy!

Heck yeah, just not to see ALV drone on. I will go back during rebuttal. I forgot a couple things....an observer fell asleep and was removed and the only reason I made it in before the guy was removed is because that nice observer that I was talking to in line let me go in front of her. She has gone 21 days straight. I plugged MDS to her so if she ever becomes a member, I want to say thank you in case she reads this.

Ha Ha Ha......... love it!

[marycontrary]

Too bad Jodi didn't buy a dildo with batteries instead of using Travis as a dildo with a heartbeat.

[dizzyp]

The thing that cannot be explained away by all of the defense testimony, so far? On June 4th, 2008, Jodi Arias was alive and well, with a couple of minor cuts on her fingers. Travis lay dead in the midst of a bloodbath, multiple stab wounds (including defense wounds) and a slashed throat and a gunshot wound to his temple.

The actual truth is he never laid a hand on her... in a 2-way "fight for life" she would have at the very least heavy bruising, facial contusions, maybe broken bones or severe cuts. She ambushed him and he never had a chance to do anything but put hiss hands up deflect blows from her knife and craw on all fours like an injured animal trying to get away...

I got my lack of patience with my kids from my mom. Does that mean I'm just continuing the cycle of abuse?

[Ian 1]

I feel degraded listening to JW and Alyce. Terrorism, power, stalking, humiliation, degradation, blame, etc. are not words I've ever thought to use in my marriage that endured for 47 wonderful years with all the ups and downs that came with the territory. What the fuck are these two talking about? I'm taking this personally now.

What about love, caring, sacrifice, support, compassion, sacrifice? Have these two never heard these words?

[*Originally Posted by*ImBatman!*Samantha and the entire family have my deepest respect. They knew what kind of shit storm they were walking into AND decided to go ahead!! I don't know that I would have this kind of strength.]

I would have already gotten kicked out for smacking someone for laughing..my kids say they can't take me anywhere. The Alexander sibs are really a classy bunch considering circumstances they were raised in.. I pray that they will eventually find some peace and comfort after this ordeal.

They have amazing strength to go through this 5 yr ordeal and now this intense trial that is trying to smear their brother. No regular human could go through this as gracefully as they do each day. They are in my thoughts and prayers so often.

Everyone here has impressed me with the amount of respect and love that you all have for the Alexander family, and how dear Travis has become to you all. It makes me sad he doesn't get to see how many are like you and supporting his family. Or maybe he is!!!!
Seeing how much you peeps care so much for justice for him and his family touches my heart.
It'
