I loved how Juan Martinez started his cross examination of Dr. Robert Geffner with pointing out that Jodi Arias in her testimony at the last trial said she didn’t want to scratch Alexander’s eyes while he was choking her to unconsciousness because she didn’t want to hurt him.
Dr. Geffner had called Dr. DeMarte a liar when she testified that she didn’t believe Arias was ever abused because Arias statement that she didn’t want to hurt someone who was trying to kill her didn’t make sense. He said there was nothing in DeMarte’s notes about Arias saying she wanted to scratch Alexander’s eyes out when he was choking her so therefore she was lying.
Martinez read the transcript of Arias testimony in the murder trial where Nurmi asked Arias if she felt she could get away during the choking and Arias answered “no, his hands were around my neck. I thought about clawing his face but I couldn’t do that. It didn’t feel right to gouge out his eyes.”
Geffner admitted that he never read the transcript and that Wilmott had told him Arias never said what Dr. DeMarte said she did.
This proves Geffner is a “hired gun” who will say anything the defense tells him to say. And Martinez is just getting started.
My favorite tweets after the break that show Martinez is showing Geffner up as the fool he is:

Geffner is having problems remembering things when Juan asks questions but not with the defense. #JodiArias
Now we're back to the same old song and dance where Geffner can't remember anything. #JodiArias
Geffner looking up at ceiling when Juan asks questions. Juan says you should have looked at reports if you can't remember.
Juan asks is clawing issue minor? #JodiArias
Juan is pacing back and forth likes he's ready to pounce. Wait for it. #JodiArias
Juan is attacking Geffner about laughing and smiling yesterday
Juan also attacking Geffner for calling DeMarte names. #JodiArias
Juan, "Why did you keep moving over to juror #1 when you were talking?" Sidebar! #JodiArias

Martinez takes Geffner to task for calling DeMarte asinine. Geffner laughs when he says her remarks were asinine.
Martinez asks Geffner, "Is there something funny?" Geffner says it's the absurdity and not that there's anything funny about the case."
Martinez then asks if there was something wrong with Geffner's microphone yesterday. "Then why were you moving over to juror number one?
