From what I have read, the prosecution can empanel up to 3 different juries to try and get the DP as a sentence. So, if this jury is unable to come to a unanimous decision, Martinez has 2 more goes at it. If it doesn't happen, then I think the judge decides. I posted something about it in one of the sub-threads, but I'm not thinking clearly enough to recall it right now!

Yes.

Yes

As long as all the jurors voted for one or the other, it could be M1. That was the beauty of adding the felony murder option, just in case.

So it could have been 11 of one type and 1 of the other, and it still would have been M1.

Sadly, we won't be hearing from Juan or Det. Flores until the sentence is signed, sealed and delivered. God, I love those two!!!

This will get some tomatoes thrown at me, but I feel sorry for Jodi. I feel sorry that she was so messed up inside that she could do something like this to someone else. She will now pay for that mistake for the rest of her life, which she should.

I feel bad to a degree but at the same time not bad enough for her to have gone free or of a lesser charge. She truly did do this to herself and yes I feel bad that she was too messed up to be able to just leave the relationship and move on.. that is a hell in and of itself.

**Jinkasaurus** · 05-08-2013, 01:24 PM

I am so proud of Juan and Det. Flores.

Yeah, I think you're right, it's still going on and everything.

**queenaevadamthng** · 05-08-2013, 01:25 PM

Don't dis the Coconut..he was playing devil's advocate..After the CA trial I was scared to get my hopes up for what I knew the verdict should be. Thankfully we had jurors that were as like minded as most of us in here and they saw through the bullshit.

You will get only props from me! You show humanity and compassion! This doesn't mean you like Stabby or believe her - it shows that you are human.

Well done!

**CreepyGus** · 05-08-2013, 01:26 PM

JAII is up again for the moment. Now they're pissed because of the civil suit. Actually kinda scarey.

"OMG! Now the attorney for the Alexander family is saying the family is filing a wrongful death civil suit! WTF they have their pound of flesh , someone should take the lot of them out back and shoot them all!"

even of it was split between premed murder and felony murder it would still be a m1 conviction juan explained that in closing

**M Joy** · 05-08-2013, 01:26 PM

Jodi Ann Arias is a convicted felon. "No Jury Will Ever Convict Me". Bwahaha!

**sheesh** · 05-08-2013, 01:27 PM

**jingles** · 05-08-2013, 01:27 PM

So, I guess no shots of Juan and Det. Flores as the verdict was read? And I wonder who it was who let out that loud *gasp*/sob when it was read...I'm guessing her mom. I can't say I don't feel for her.

**Sneakers the Wonder Dog** · 05-08-2013, 01:28 PM

Is it wrong of me that I'm taking pleasure in the fact that Stabby's going back to Estrella Jail to a paper night gown, no golf pencils and segregated from her fan club?

Thank you guys, for answering my somewhat dumb question. I had been so focused on the evidence that I wasn't paying much attention to the jury instructions. :p

And also:

YES YES YES YES YES YES

It's not nice to celebrate the fact that someone's life is essentially over, and a family is broken, but this was the right thing to happen.

Spokesman said Travis' family is filing a Wrongful Death suit against Jodi. I would think that would take care of her profiteering from all of this.

Absolutely. They want to make that she can no longer make any sort of profit, herself or for her family or her charities, from any angle now that she has been convicted of 1st Degree Murder. This poor family SO deserved this verdict, today.

I hope Alyce LaVomit watched with one eye shut. What a fucking bitch. Bet she dreads the day she hooked her wagon to Jodi's star.

bingo.

I thought that too, but Beth Karas (or maybe Jinkasaurus) said it was one of Travis' sisters.

Gosh! I hope her boyfriend Donavan doesn't kill himself!
