And then, to hear what he had to say when he was talking about his fantasies, some of them very violent; having the sex over the phone with her and we hear them both climaxing, it was just -- it was a high point and a low point in the trial. You can tell. Others are staring directly as Jodi, judging her as the sex tape is playing.
Meanwhile, Jodi is on the stand, hair covering her entire face. She uses her hair as a shield in these really embarrassing moments in court. In this case toxic secrets that exploded in death on June 4, Jodi Arias killed Travis Alexander by stabbing him 29 times, slitting his throat ear to ear, and shooting him in the face. All this happened in the confines of his master bedroom and bathroom, after Jodi and Travis had indulged in an afternoon of kinky sex and naked photo sessions.
He wanted to get a picture of us having sex without somebody holding the camera. What are the secrets that exploded in violence? And who is ultimately responsible? Because I was not there. He was trying to get on top of me. I broke away from him. I have no clear memories after that. Nevertheless, she carried with her a new set of secrets. No one knew what she had done. She washes her hand of blood. She throws away the gun. And then she starts making phone calls, immediately coming up with this cover story that she maintains for the next month.
And what else? Oh, and I drove miles in the wrong direction. Over miles, thank you very much. So yes, remember new Mexico? Tell you all about that later. Also when we were talking about -- when we were talking about your upcoming travels my way, I was looking at the May calendar, duh. But Heather and I are going to see "Othello" on July 1, and we would love for you to accompany us. Her lighthearted tone a stark contrast to the blood-soaked crime scene.
He has. She had just killed a man. Jodi began creating an elaborate smokescreen by canoodling with another man. She headed from the crime scene in Arizona into Utah and met up with this man, Ryan Burns.
We were watching some like scary movie, I guess, and he was laying next to me. I guess I just wanted to seem like normal. Joining me noted psychologists Jeff Gardere and Robi Ludwig. And as we see with many women with these sorts of issues, they learn to use sex as a tool. She was doing that to cover up her tracks. Robi Ludwig, what could the symbolic significance be of her killing Travis Alexander and then going and immediately making out with this other guy, Ryan Burns?
If I hurt Travis, if I killed Travis. I would beg for the death penalty. I talked to I thought you mentioned you had been back in town like for a week or a couple of days. I was nowhere near Mesa. They were white Americans, from what I could tell.
They had -- what do you call those things? They just argued. We had sex in the bathtub and then again on his bed. With the candy. He wanted to put the Tootsie Pop inside of me. He wanted me to put Pop Rocks in my mouth while he -- while I gave him oral sex.
Do you know how many inches or feet of rope it took in order to -- in order to have your -- these nooses around your hands? I let Travis handle that. And I defended myself. But Jodi, in a bid to spare herself the death penalty, turned the tables and tried to put the victim on trial.
Jodi said Travis led a secret life. The victim did not remain unconscious based on the infliction of the other wounds and the location of blood spatter evidence in the bathroom sink and blood in the hallway.
In addition, the defendant told the police that the victim was unconscious after being shot but then crawled around and was stabbed. Cuts on the hands were defensive wounds from grabbing the knife. With the exception of two wounds, these wounds were not fatal. The two fatal wounds were a deep stab wound to the chest and then a cut across the throat. While conscious, the victim would have felt pain and mental anguish associated with these multiple wounds.
Duncan allowed Martinez to allege cruelty. She did not allow him to allege that the crime was heinous or depraved. And according to court records, during an interview conducted by Nurmi in May , Flores was still maintaining that Alexander had been shot first, based on autopsy results. Martinez presented the new theory in November , just before picking a jury for the first trial.
A former California policeman talked about a burglary at Arias' grandparents' house in Northern California when a gun of the same caliber of the murder weapon was stolen. It has never been found. As you recall when Juror 2 was drawn as an alternate, she cried all the way to her car.
Well, today one of the jurors who is currently deliberating has […]. They return tomorrow. There was so much to tell you guys yesterday, I left a lot of things out. One broad thing I need to point out is that Juan Martinez did not object one time to Kirk […]. The end is near. But first, Judge Stephens will read the juror instruction to the jury.
We know this part. She mention what the defense will present as mitigating factors, no criminal history, remorse, her age, PTSD, and Borderline Personality Disorder. She explains that this is the mitigation phase of the […]. Apologies for skipping the Jodi Update yesterday, I had a lot of personal matters that needed attending to and it wore me slap out. I fell asleep before I could ever read to get caught up. It was the last day […]. When last we were in court, the defense had stated its case for saving Jodi Arias from the death penalty.
It was not a strong case, but it was a very long case. And Juan had given his rebuttal. Miss any of this long assed trial? You can get all the dailies for the past few years here. Juan had a lovely peach colored tie. There was someone who they thought would be […].
So far we have no explanation for why the judge questioned all the jurors one by one, but they are all back today. There is […].
The Jodi Arias trial soldiering on today with Nurmi beginning with some very aggressive attacks on DeMarte. She misrepresented he experience, she shared confidential test questions with Juan. Jodi Arias was the last to arrive to trial today.
It seemed to start later than I thought, but I must have gotten the times wrong. It looks like it going to start after 10 am MST. Nurmi is loaded for bear. The defense hates DeMarte with a purple passion.
After a lovely lunch everyone returns to court, Juan gets half a sentence out and Nurmi asks for a sidebar which of course happens. Taylor said that Travis was irritated with Jodie because […]. This morning we started with a sidebar followed by the defense arguing outside of the jury that the testimony of Detective Perry Smith should be precluded because they have not received his reports or had enough time to interview him. This motion actually seems to have merit to me.
Smith was tapped by the prosecution […]. The stall tactics by the defense begin again today as Juan is preparing to call Dr. Demarte everything Jodi Arias wishes she was. She tried to mimic her throughout her entire testimony in the first trial. Then she went back to mimicking Willmott.
I believe Bishop Vernon Parker was called to the stand by Juan. Today Nurmi will have a chance to cross examine him. Nurmi is stalling already.
