I don't agree with the way some people have handled Alyce's stance on the trial (the book reviews/the petitions etc). But I don't consider it as witness tampering; more of a freedom of speech. People have to understand, that this case has brought out an extreme amount of emotions from people all across the the world. People are angry that Jodi has more rights than what has been given to the real victim in the case. That on top of the fact that Alyce is misrepresenting true DV victims in her testimony and obviously so completely biased toward the defense, that it really is bringing out the worst in some people. She is infuriating to watch...very unprofessional, combative, and even extremely immature.
I think that the "lynch mob" mentality is truly because that is the only way some people can let it be known that they do not agree with her and her biased "opinion". People are upset, angry and rightfully so. She is a big witness for the trial, and it's really troublesome watching the bias to be so blatantly transparent.
It's one thing to testify on your opinion on what you believe Jodi "endured", but it's also another to be completely defiant about opposing sides. She flat out refuses to admit to ANYTHING Jodi did wrong. It's a shame that she put her lifelong work on the line for someone who could care less what happens to her.

I agree
It's really a parallel universe over there.

not sure if the dog's name is Jodi, if the dog supports Jodi, or if the dog looks like Jodi.
I think the jurors are allowed to discuss any issues they might have, with the judge, especially one this serious. I remember in the OJ trial the jurors were always complaining to Judge Ito about something, from their schedule to their weekend entertainment (having been sequestered). Certainly they would have the right to share with the judge that they are feeling harassed, at least I hope so!
Ok, enough of the jaii site. I can't wait until the judge asks Alyce the jury questions, the jury has shown before that they do pay attention, they ask very interesting questions.
from my understanding witness tampering is done at the behest of someone involved in the trial. ie Jodi asks Donavan to create a Twitter account and send out messages for her ;)
or Juan Martinez asks for 1000's of volunteers to flame AL Amazon page and give her nasty reviews...
simply put: no tampering.

Jean Casarez just said on HLN that one of the jurors "is the spitting image" of Jodi's mother, she could almost pass as her twin. Well, that's awkward.

I found Alyce.![]()
So in ALV's mind, Travis felt so guilty about his actions; he shot himself, fell on the knife 29 times then slit his own throat. To quote Juan - Riiiiiiiggght
Remember what happened to Jodi's dog. Chained him to a fence and gave him a good kick for 'digging through the trash' enough that some how the dog broke free, didn't yelp ... and just ran away. But, you know, Jodi loves animals. Especially enough to let a coworker's cat starve for two weeks. Don't murderers usually show signs on starting with animal abuse?
I agree, it's not witness tampering. But guaranteed: the defense is going to try and prove that it is. At more cost to the taxpayers.
I agree. It has always been my contention that people don't need to do anything to Alyce (for revenge or whatever it is that motivates them): Alyce has already fucked herself over.

My apologies. :( I just thought one of the last things Alyce said sounded like what Yoda said
tells the Mods to delete my frivolity... I can't figure out how to delete a post. or edit... is that part of the pay=per-view?

In my opinion, its not the fact that JW objects, its the manner in which she composes herself when she does. And the fact that 75% or more of her objections are overruled shows she's just trying to prevent damning testimony from coming out of the witnesses mouths. She looks silly IMO.
