Jodi Ann Arias shot and stabbed her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander to death (Part II)

[MartyT]

Did anyone notice when Nurmi said the defense rests the judge actually said GREAT!!!!!! My thoughts exactly

I'll look for that later. So say most of us, I'd bet!

[Estefaniia]

Jenny paying attention, it looks like she wants to cry :o

Real or fake, Stabby is a really ugly crier.
Yes I broke my own self imposed embargo on caller her that bit it seems appropriate today

[M Joy]

Good luck following this Nurmi


@WildAboutTrial1m
Jurors have the most serious looks on their faces that I have seen so far. #JodiArias

Ya, I really wish she would close her mouth.

[Sneakers the Wonder Dog]

If she slides down on that chair anymore she's going to end up on the floor.

WOW can't watching right now but reading about this 2 min is amazing! Can't wait to watch tonight! Thank you all for the posts for updates.

@faq. Are u there with ian and denver?

[ImBatman!]

Can't wait to hear from Ian on what it was like to BE THERE!!

[Mochachino]

Yes.
Yes. I'm so sick of her and Nurmi sounds like whiner even more than usual today.

Special place for Nurmi too! It is SO hard to feel bad for him because he was forced to do this but he has pulled some evil shit during this trial.

[faq_q]

Willmott is now stuck looking at the jurors one by one. She is biting her lip like usual.

[Mochachino]

Does Juan get to rebut Nurmi?

[Rockabillychick]

There is no way for Nurmi to follow that. Juan was brilliant, 2 minutes, just brilliant.

[snowfallsoon]

Jodi keeps wiping her nose, but never her eyes.

[ImBatman!]

I honestly hold no ill will towards the defense team..did they sink to low levels yes...I really think they tried their best which is what the law requires. They also know that their client is going to die...how horrible that must feel.

[Sandral]

I hope they take less than 15 mins. to find this skank guilty of aggregated cruelty. But sentence her LWOP so she has to sit in jail thinking about why she is there. A. Long Time!!!!!!

[NCBlonde]

I honestly don't see any way in the world that anyone on that jury will not believe this was cruel.

[Sneakers the Wonder Dog]

Nurmi is just going to try and guilt the jury.

He remembers that the jury didn't like his interpretation of jury instructions the last time he tried this right ?

[alyoop]

Even if I had not seen the photos, Juan and Dr Horns' use of the word DIVOT got me. cruel. one hundred percent

[DP64]

Willmot actually looks affected by JM's words. And Nurmi should just stand up and toss down his pencil and say "I quit. It's over." and bow down to Juan.

yeah they have nothing but hey at least they're trying?

[snowfallsoon]

JM explaining that Jodi knew it was painful. She WANTED it to be painful, and she WANTED to make sure Travis knew who was stabbing him.

[Sneakers the Wonder Dog]

Jodi keeps wiping her nose, but never her eyes.

Because she's not crying.

Nurmi's going to lose the fight with his shirt buttons any time now

[Brillig]

2 minute silence! Very effective! Very painful for the family! I'm weeping for them now!

Not to pump up Juan anymore than happens here but he just really knocked it out of the park with that 2 minutes.

holy shit the little hairs on my forearms are standing up. WOW. Juan is a GENIUS

Classic film noir, courtroom drama. Chilling.

That was brilliant, and super effective, and very film noir. In short, perfect.

Well, since she is usually pinching her nose trying to induce some tears, she probably needs to keep her mouth open to be able to breathe.

If she slides down on that chair anymore she's going to end up on the floor.

Fine by me, perhaps that would prompt the long anticipated stun belt demo we have all been hoping for.

i do. i think they really crossed the line of decency when they went into pedophlia and abuse. they had access to ALL of the writings and ALL of the friend interviews. They had no reasonable grounds to pursue that defense.

[faq_q]

What are the chances Nurmi wraps up by noon? Nope, not happening. There is not much material for him to work with that would prove that the murder was not "especially" cruel.
