Justice,
Somehow, I do not think that the goal of the defense (Arias) to confuse the jury worked.
I also think that they remember far more than we give them credit for.
There are 12 jurors, all with their own memories of what is important and this will be shared during their deliberations.
It is prudent to remember that the jurors must act individually in their assessment of the mitigating factors vs the evidence AND they must listen to others during their deliberations. In making the final decision for the verdict, they must analyze all that is before them individually and then come together with a unanimous decision.
I believe that they are tired of the same old stuff coming from the defense and delaying this trial. They have heard it all, over and over. They know where they stand and remember what has been put before them.
Juan Martinez is an excellent orator.
He is concise and pulls no punches.
He will use the evidence that he has presented over these last months and with it, will refresh the jury.
He is a brilliant prosecutor and knows what the task is before him regarding speaking in his closing argument to the jury.
As I have said before, he will humanize Travis, the true victim in this trial and DEHUMANIZE ARIAS FOR HER CRUEL SLAUGHTER OF THIS MAN.
He will remind them of the gory death that Travis suffered.
He will remind them of the suffering of the Alexander family.
He will remind them that Arias is a pathological liar.
He will remind them that Arias knew and knows right from wrong.
Lunarscope,
I get that Arias has not asked for parole at any time.
But please help me to understand your posting. I find it confusing.
