Jodi Arias: Charming Lying Murdering Psychopath
http://justdatruth2012.blogspot.ca/2013/03/jodi-arias-charming-lying-murdering.html?m=1
Thank you Lunarscope for the link to Brad’s blog. As I read his story about his ex girlfriend I got even a greater understanding of why Travis Alexander didn’t throw Jodi Arias out of his house and call the police when she slipped through his garage the day she stabbed him to death as he took a shower.
Stalkers like Jodi and Brad’s ex girlfriend seem harmless enough. They are charming, deny doing anything wrong and try to turn it around to make the victim look crazy for accusing them of stalking them.
When Arias called Flores at the murder scene, she said Travis was being stalked and someone was slashing his tires and said it had to be two intruders because Alexander weighed almost 200 lbs. At that time, he had talked to Alexander's friends who found the body and they said Arias was the one who slashed his tires and he knew she was inserting herself in the investigation to try to throw him off her trail and to find out what he knew.
At the murder trial, the defense said in their opening statement that the jurors will hear that Travis Alexander accused Jodi Arias of stalking him but that was not true.
Mimi Hall, the friend who was going to Cancun with Travis, testified that Travis had a stalker who crawled through his doggy door, sent threatening emails to his girlfriend and followed him on dates. She said he hadn’t mentioned the name but said it was a jealous ex girlfriend.
When Arias first concocted the Ninja story after spending the night in Yreka jail, I think she deliberately said one of the Ninjas was female to pin it on Deanna Reid because in the letter she wrote to the family she mentions Deanna Reid was the problem in her and Travis’s relationship because she was a jealous ex girlfriend to make it look like the jealous ex girlfriend Travis said was stalking him was Deanna Reid.
Dr. DeMarte testified that Lisa Andrews Daidone said in an interview that she was at Alexander’s home and the lights were going on and off and Alexander went to investigate and found Arias in his home. She also said Arias was found hiding under his Christmas tree and admitted in a text message to taking his diamond ring he bought for another woman out of his bedroom drawer and having it in her possession and that she would explain later. I’d love to hear that explanation.
Arias herself testified that she looked in Alexander’s window and saw him making out with a woman and her bra was unhooked and that she got upset and confronted him. She denied she was stalking him but that she came over to get something out of his garage where he stored some of her belongings and she wanted to see if he was home.
Arias was so smug and smirking when she testified under Martinez cross examination that the day she murdered him, Alexander did not meet her at the front door and let her in but that she went in through the garage and was standing in the hallway watching him with his back to her for a long time before his dog, Napoleon, saw her and ran to her and Travis turned around.
She also testified that the roommates might have been home at night but not in the daytime and that one of them came home at 6:30 pm. Travis Alexander was slaughtered between 5:02 and 5:04 pm according to the time stamp on the last picture of Alexander alive and the picture of him lying on the floor with his throat slit.
Arias wanted the jury and the public to know that she was the expert on Alexander and she knew everything about his and his roommate’s comings and goings and only she knew how to get in his house without going through the front door, which she admitted was usually unlocked.
Martinez used Arias testimony against her in proving the stalking and the felony murder charge as well as the premeditated first degree murder charge. The only reason Arias isn’t resuming her testimony in the sentencing phase is that she doesn’t want Martinez questioning her because he turned what she said in the last trial against her and used it to convict her.
Nurmi tried to convince the jury in the murder trial Arias didn’t premeditate the crime or she could have shot him in the head when his back was to her as he sat on the computer or when he was asleep.
But the simple explanation for that is that she wanted to prolong her time with Alexander as long as she could and she wanted him to suffer and feel the pain she felt when he refused to marry her but admitted he was looking for a woman to marry. Shooting him in the head would be too easy of a death and he wouldn’t even know she did it.
Arias waited for the perfect opportunity when Alexander was the most vulnerable and couldn’t fight back and started stabbing him in the shower just an hour and a half before she knew one of his roommates would be home. That way he would know she was his murderer and suffer as she did. She never believed he would get out of that shower and all the blood and any DNA evidence linking Arias to the crime would be washed down the drain.
