Jodi Arias: New information released regarding jury deliberations and Juror #17

@ Court Chatter's comments;

Bobbie SmithMarch 10, 2015 at 10:36 PM
oh no she could not let juror #17 go with the hung jury she wanted. The judge has shown bias towards Jodi all along. removing juror #17 would mean a death penalty and a possible appeal and she does not want her first capital case appealed. 17 should be in jail for contempt of court how can she say she did not see much of the news about this case when she watched the movie. LIE LIE LIE!


Skeeter skeetMarch 11, 2015 at 2:57 AM
I have to agree with Bobby Smith on this one. The judge bent over backwards for Stabby even during the lst trial. And it was more evident during the penalty phase. She needs to be investigated, hell, she might have been bribed by the defense, they got 3 million f___ing dollars for this case. Where's all the money. I think an investigation is in order.


NaturalBorn ScorpioMarch 12, 2015 at 11:03 PM
I agree with Skeeter skeet and truly believe that Judge Stephens has a soft spot for JA and JA makes it hard for her ..you just have to read between the lines to feel it

JSS is like JA, i.e. she is very manipulative, and in her ruling, she provides her own “spin” on events, which is very self-serving. Juror #17 did not participate in good faith in the deliberations. JSS let her stay on anyway, but it was clear that this juror had an “agenda”, and was not honest in engaging with the other jurors. Juror #17 refused to look at the evidence. According to the other jurors, she didn’t want to look at the evidence or discuss the case in-depth:– i.e. she had her mind made up. Juan Martinez tried to get her dismissed from the jury, but JSS would not do so… I would have taken Juan Martinez & Det. Flores’ word over Juror #17′s “word”– and, hopefully jury tampering by JA & Co. will be investigated. Yet, JA & Co. prevailed, when it really counted. Alas.

JSS didn't ask the right questions... What about a judge with wit (which JSS lacks) asking Juror #17:--

@ Wit was a bad choice of words, courts use laws, people use wit!

(1) Were you the juror who made a "connection" with Jodi Arias, whom she was having "eye-sex" with during the last few weeks of the re-trial? She kept smiling over at somebody... Was that you?

(2) What was your relationship to Maria "Smuggler" De La Rosa? Are your off-spring "friends"? Did your husband and/or ex know De La Rosa's daughter on his FB page? Have you had any contact either directly or via telephone or via e-mail with De La Rosa or any of De La Rosa's cronies? Have you had any contact of any kind via any communications media with Jodi Arias? Have you had any contact of any kind via any communications media with Jodi Arias' cohorts, including but not restricted to her PI Dorian Bond, Donavan Bering, Sandy Arias, Auntie $hrew, or anybody else?

(3) Why didn't you reveal that your ex was prosecuted by Juan Martinez? What is your "skin in the game" vis-à-vis any of your relations' past or future involvement in any criminal prosecutions by the State?

If there was jury tampering by JA & Co. with Juror #17, all of the parties need to be prosecuted. And, since JSS chose to turn a blind-eye to Juror #17's obvious corruption in refusing to deliberate in good faith... she went into the jury room with her "mind" (what little brains exist) made-up, JSS needs to be investigated for her own incompetence & bias towards the convicted murderer & her unethical defense team. When will those over 120 sealed documents; the transcripts from the many sealed hearings & secret "ex-parte" meetings be released for public scrutiny???

...juror 17 stated she had not been getting on her Facebook page recently because she did not think it was a good idea. However, she did get on her Facebook page the other day... What part of her statement is a lie?


OhgorshMarch 11, 2015 at 12:20 PM
Willnut also said other jurors could of done so ,They had time to investigate they stalled how many days a week on this case that should of been long over with ,And porn till people actually were sick of it ,I know this will all be white washed but would be interesting to find out the truth for all the people that watched this trial from the start. They said on news sticking up for the juror if they removed her ,then people would not do Jury Duty ,but we all know they get a card go to court ,,if not found to be a good juror they go home ,Nothing is going to stop people from not doing their duty as a juror ,The statements made by the bias news people is not true.

@ Nurmi just argued his mis-trial card!


AnonymousMarch 10, 2015 at 4:16 PM
Due to the nature of this being such a high profile death penalty case, juror 17 should have been replaced with an alternate, there were too many unanswered questions and possibilities. If they could dismiss a juror in the murder phase of this trial for getting a DUI during a holiday break then this one should have definitely been replaced.!! If the juror was on the side of the prosecution and refused to deliberate with the other 11 you better believe that the defense would have been granted the motion to dismiss this juror.!!


AnonymousMarch 11, 2015 at 11:36 AM
She dismissed a juror in the 1st trial for stating the chairs were uncomfortable….

@ And 2 just before deliberations "Let's fry the Bitch" was reported, question is did both say it, and who heard or reported it? Plus a juror dismissed late last year? Less jurors better chance of not being a alternate juror!


OhgorshMarch 11, 2015 at 12:25 PM
And I am sure they had a reason knowing they could not sway that one ,And the lady that lost her mother .that was just wrong saying she was kicked off ,felt sorry for her ,,,


AnonymousMarch 10, 2015 at 5:33 PM
Like who? Did Wilmott even hint at a name? No. Name the person if you want to remain credible. She lost any ounce of credibility when she flat-out lied in this trial. That is not the remit, nor ethical practice, within the Legal community. Good luck with your peers Wilmott. And don't be so fucking rude if you want to be taken seriously. <---- Sarcasm, which you should get if you read this properly.


OhgorshMarch 11, 2015 at 12:22 PM
I read the article and well know no names were said ,and no names were investigated ,that right there tells me it a lie ,,just to add blame to the 11 that did their jobs right and decent

"These plans culminated on January 13, 2015, when HLN underwent a major revamp in its programming and on-air presentation, with a larger focus on major headlines, lifestyle stories, and other user-generated content that is trending online. The network also introduced several new social media-themed programs, including the new afternoon program The Daily Share..." So she liked THE DAILY SHARE after becoming a juror!!!!!

Now that is pertinent info... Detective Flores should have Facebook records confirmed soon! Two weeks was mentioned, but will likely not be released until the investigation is complete.


AnonymousMarch 11, 2015 at 2:33 PM
Wow!! You are in the wrong profession- YOU should be a detective/P.I.!! Excellent job, my friend! As that is a new show, I HOPE Det. Flores has begun looking into the FB accounts in question. I'm now certain there is much information to be found there...


AnonymousMarch 10, 2015 at 4:58 PM
I hope this is investigated but seriously doubt it will be. The damage is done. All that can be done is learn from the experience as hard as it is. If there was no facebook problems then why all the deleting parties ?


OhgorshMarch 11, 2015 at 12:29 PM
I do hope they run with the money that is left and go away for good ,that would teach JA a good lesson ,that she is using them minons and she is the one duped ,,


Bobbie SmithMarch 10, 2015 at 10:44 PM
It is never too late when an investigation is under way and it most assuredly is. iT may cause a retrial of the penalty phase. This next time it will not be a complete retrial like this judge allowed.


OhgorshMarch 10, 2015 at 6:52 PM
And one decent juror gets kicked off because he mother died ? what justice


AnonymousMarch 10, 2015 at 7:11 PM
JSS can't rule properly in "real-time". When she took Nurmi's ludicrous motions "off-line", and Juan Martinez's legal force of arguments was overwhelmingly stronger, JSS had no choice but to overrule JA & Co.'s laughable, repetitive motions. Those who care about the Rule of Law and the US Constitution are not impressed with JSS's unethical behavior over this last few years, since the hung jury in May 2013, which clearly was biased towards Jodi Arias, a convicted murderer.

I think it was mainly JSS... an incompetent, biased, and corrupt judge who let JA & Co. run-amok... JSS spent the last two years coddling Skank, a psycopath-- a pathological liar-- a convicted murderer. JSS granted Skank approx. 30 "ex-parte" meetings in the aftermath of the hung jury, in May 2013, in violation of the AZ Code of Judicial Conduct; resulting in undue deference in the way of delay after delay after delay, in violation of the AZ Victims' BIll of Rights; and, unconstitutional secrecy, in violation of the US Constitution, such that the AZ Court of Appeals & the AZ Supreme Court had to step in to restore the Rule of Law to JSS's sordid & squalid courtrooom.

Juror #17 might have committed perjury during the Voir Dire, and apparently, she is under investigation. JA & Co. need to be investigated for jury tampering due to Juror #17's possible relationships with Maria "Smuggler" De La Rosa and Skank's PI Dorian Bond... and, JA & Co. should be investigated for fraud, in tampering with copies of Travis Alexander's lap-top computer... and, filing perjurious affidavits... but, the "buck stops" with JSS-- an incompetent, biased, and corrupt judge, who pissed all over the 11 honest, ethical jurors who tried to do their duty-- whilst trampling the Alexander family asunder. An honest Foreman took evidence to JSS showing Juror #17 refused to deliberate, and this stupid, unethical judge did NOTHING.

JSS isn't fit to sit on a criminal bench... she is better suited to Traffic Court, such that when she "fixes" traffic tickets for her cronies, it is not so destructive and costy, albeit, still unethical. JSS's lack of ethics have caused so much misery to the Alexanders; so much cost to the AZ taxpayers; and, has undermined the criminal justice system, to such an extent, that she should be forced to step down from the bench, until the AZ Commission on Judicial Conduct can carry out a full & thorough investigation into her grotesque mis-management of the sentencing phase of the JA trial. She is a disgrace and she has made a mockery of the courtroom. The farcical final penalty re-trial was a travesty of justice. The AZ Judiciary might let her fix traffic tickets-- she should never again be allowed to rig criminal trials!!!


AnonymousMarch 11, 2015 at 5:11 PM
Thank you for such a well written response. I pray that a judicial conduct inquiry will be carried out regarding her handling of this trial.


AnonymousMarch 11, 2015 at 10:35 PM
So do I. Nothing has gone right since day one...seems she always comes out the better(JA), that is.

Where are all the minutes from February 26th, the first full day of deliberations where the jury had 4 questions, including switching out a deliberating juror, all before 10am?

"Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ
The jury also wanted a certain set of written instructions...#jodiarias #3tvaria

Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ
Sounds like a deliberating juror wants to switch with an alternate. Nurmi is on his way #jodiarias #3tvarias

Cathy ‏@courtchatter
I'm hearing that a sitting juror wants to switch with alternate juror #2. CRAZY! #jodiarias

Cathy ‏@courtchatter
#jodiarias asked to speak to Nurmi in person"

@ I don't see any pieces missing from the puzzle, Jodi had to know #17's vote, #17 was likely a Victim of DV living with her convict husband' her first husband abused her and someone wanted off the jury early the first day, what put Florez on the alert to check her social media!

And if some of the 11 jurors were using their internet - facebook who, when, where and how often, the quotes are subjective of perjury being recorded in chambers, instead of voicing an argument pleading a case / argument directly to jury! All 11 should sue her for slander!
Thanks Lunarscope!

Just one thing - the comment about "And her restrictions are for 42 days - she is toast" was mine, not posted on JMP Support Page on Facebook.

So are you saying the carry-over of her restrictions follow her to Perryville? I would have thought they were Estrella restrictions and she starts anew once in Perryville.

All the comments that you posted are speculation and adding fuel to this fire IMO.
Such hateful comments.
When I read them, I remember that they are people's personal opinions and not fact.


But let me tell you, give an opposing comment and you are absolutely blasted by them!
They direct their rude comments to anyone who dares to disagree or even just give another side to possibilities.
My comments are the same - personal - but I do not get nasty in my responses.

I am so tired of it all.

http://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=sR-0MMXqVgc

Very interesting take by someone who KNOWS the culture within Perryville walls.
Look out Arias - your nightmare is just beginning.

A friend of mine posted this to my facebook. thought I would share as the word "Karma" has been used in so many posts that I have read. We should all be mindful of the following.......

Karma -
What goes around, comes around.
Keep your circle positive.
Speak good words.
Think good thoughts.
Do good deeds.
Nern' I put @ for 'Lunarscope said'and the ® was for accreditation, I  just didn't name you for what's confirmed in newsprint' although the exacting of 42 days I can't confirm' I am saying ShariffJoe posted that the Jodi restrictions carry-over or follow her into Perryville prison, in his press release, so for additional 10 days reasons by logic!

All the comments posted are what's being investigated and much is speculation, but we get our facts from sources accredited to the last post of March 10, 2015 at 9:56 PM and that comment supplied sources that rise above speculation! It is the topic at hand because of the speculation above it 'with the article' that lead to discovery!

@ I'll edit-out most of the speculation for this comment, leaving first speculation intact!
March 10, 2015 at 5:02 PM
JSS didn't ask the right questions... What about a judge with wit (which JSS lacks) asking Juror #17:--

@ Wit was a bad choice of words, courts use laws, people use wit!

® Have you had any contact of any kind via any communications media with Jodi Arias' cohorts, including but not restricted to her PI Dorian Bond, Donavan Bering, Sandy Arias, Auntie $hrew, or anybody else?

When will those over 120 sealed documents; the transcripts from the many sealed hearings & secret "ex-parte" meetings be released for public scrutiny???

@ The secrecy spawns speculation' its a given, the twitter circus replaced the media circus from the first trial due to cameras removal, this circus was worse, because the jurmain facts were protected, I do blame the judge and hope Maria Da LA Rosa loses her position' even if she excapes charges! Willmot said jurors were using Facebook and that requires proving' Nurmi did not back her assessment.

I hope when Jodi enters the courtroom in shackles that she finds the jury seated for judgement, the news said a helicopter will film Jodis  bus ride to prison on April 14, a OJ media event nationwide, something is brewing for Jodi on Apri 13, to have that extreme newsworthiness, I expect arrests and charges for whoever committed crimes, meeting her supporters in court in cuffs would be poetic, Simons extradition, jury tampering is not tolerated, and I hope Martinez speaks to the jury, if I had his talent, after this fiasco' I would be seriously considering moving practice' unless justice prevails all encompassing! This is all about Jodi supporters, Jodi defenders and the system taking a hit then bouncing back! Collateral damage, Jodi loses all money and becomes a number, while her cohorts get their just deserves including any professional misconduct measurements!
I agree with you Nern. Those people are angry and emotional and can't look at logic and reason. That's why I don't read anything on those Facebook pages but the articles and videos posted by the administrators.

I am exhausted and burned out. I feel like the prosecutor and reporters. I didn't argue the case or sit in the courtroom, but I read every motion and every tweet during the trial and so I feel like I walked in their shoes.

Like Martinez said in his press conference, Jodi Arias may be a high profile case, but he has many cases and sometimes you get the desired result and sometimes you don't and you move on. I am moving on. Unlike them, I am not moving on to a new case. I am going back to my real life and taking I-D off my TV channel. No more murder and no more criminals in my life. Just family and friends.

To me, Arias is just another criminal who thought she could get away with murder and barely escaped the death penalty. The prisons are full of psychopaths just like her who murder, blame the victim and the cops and the prosecutors for why they are in prison.

It's been good getting to meet all of you. I wish you happiness in your lives.
Nern, I was getting down and dirty in my blog when I said I want revenge. It was a take on the alleged reason that Juror 17 wouldn't vote for the death penalty. What I meant when I said that was I want Arias to be in the prison and not have the privileges she has been getting in the jail - $100 a week to buy whatever at the snack bar, hundreds of calls a week, etc. I don't want anyone shanked or raped or anything. I want her to be alone almost all the time and away from the other prisoners who she can and will manipulate. And I am very serious when I say that I would want a wrongful death suit to be able to take away the money "donated" to Arias by her fans for special treats in prison. This trial has shown me what justice is all about - lies, lies, and more lies and whatever expert witness can sit there on the stand and tell blatant lies, and lying about evidence. Fortunately the jurors in both trials were able to see the premeditation of this murder and that the defendant lied everytime she opened her mouth.
I saw one of those email drawings last week that said "Have a Karma kind of day". I need to print that out and tape it on my wall!!!

Observer, it is good meeting you too. I wish you a good rest and much happiness in your life. You have been a very good blogger and I have learned a lot. It has been so interesting and I am so glad to have had people to be able to discuss this with. I will miss you.

Observer -
Koodos to you to be able to leave this case!
I feel exactly the same way but will hang in there until sentencing and she is transported to Perryville.

The interaction on this blog for the last year has been extremely enlightening and something I looked forward to each day as we discuss our thoughts and opinions.

Thank you for being a part of this.
Enjoy life without all the evil. There is so much good in this world and that is what we should be focusing on.

On another note....
I watched FOX online this morning with Troy Hayden. It was about 45 minutes once you got to about 1.06 on the play line. Then my computer shut down so I am looking for the link.
Interesting show - but long!
This Jury has been silent and I'm sure the first jury also have things to get off their chest. I don't expect much more news releases until April just before the 13th, and after the 14th everyones hyper will subside.

This trials drained everyone who have allowed it to occupy their lives, as I've worded "We effect change" only a select few ideas or discoveries make the point of advancement' speculators seak that eureka moment, but funny thing is' a discovery tweeted or blogged becomes community knowledge, to leave no posable accreditation reward.

Its communication that drives the posting, easy for us because our argument has merits plus a hurt family needed supporters, but the gearing downs begun, theirs a closure to the fighting to defend.

Many needs for reform have been exposed from top to bottom by this newfangled ease of communication' that has pleasers and pain, but I'm not ready to say That L Do until the April 14th exodus,

Then I will want some answers' but the center target will be missing, SJ = Simon needs to never recreate a 'is innocent' sight, and soon the haters who supported Jodi will find targets in their homefield' hopefully without Simons organizational skills ever again!
Found the link!

Reminder - go to about 1.06 to hear about Arias.
It is long but I learned a few things - that were not speculation.

The jury has spoken for now.
I would hope that they are trying to put their lives back together after this ordeal.
I am hanging in until the bitter end. Or should I say good for the family and citizens end. And probably a little longer than that.

Duluth,

I was not making any reference to you or anyone else about violence towards Arias. I was just, once again, stating my opinion. Sometimes what I say gets misconstrued by the reader and I apologize for that.
Apparently, no wrongful civil suit has yet been filed by the Alexander family (according to Troy Hayden). They may be waiting for sentencing to be over and they may be investigating where her finances stand.
