Justice and Observer,
I like your opinions and agree.
I felt during the first trial that of all the "talking heads", Beth Karas was the most credible and professional in her reporting.
Since she left HLN to move forward, on her own, with her website and forums, I too feel that she is not putting a lot of thought into her comments as she is not following the Arias trial to the degree that she was.
I posted from the Juan Martinez Prosecutor Support Page in direct response to Karas saying that she felt the defense (Arias) had the upper hand. She stated this because Martinez had not brought forward evidence of the premeditation of the crime.
I saw the posting for the video with Beth Karas but after disagreeing with her on the above issue and a couple of others in the past, I have decided that following her at this time is not for me. I continue to have a respect for Karas but in this particular case, I do not think she is as invested in it as she once was.
Couple of comments.....
Calling another professional's statement "asinine", stating more than once that this other professional is unethical and wrong in her opinions were bad enough...
But when Geffner stated that interviewing Mormons was "useless" I was appalled.
He blatantly displayed a unprofessional, biased, prejudiced and IGNORANT opinion.
He successfully discredited himself as an expert and should be looking for another job!
I have read what has been posted in the secret transcripts so far and it is just more of the same lies and embellishment from Arias as to her importance.
She says that she has received "thousands and thousands" of pieces of mail, some being supportive and many being threatening.
She even says she heard that one of Travis' friends wanted to shoot her between her eyes.
She also said that although access to her while in jail is limited, people can still get in.
After 16 months, no matter what she says, good or bad, she upsets people.
She also had the gall to interrupt the judge.
Then there is MDLR!
She talks at length of a stranger coming into the jail claiming to be Arias' lawyer and wanting to see her.
To top it off, while giving this information, she shows her continued lack of respect for the court and her unprofessionalism by referring to those present as "you guys".
This matter was held in the judge's chambers with all attorneys present. She referred to them as if she was talking to someone in a casual conversation or someone she met on the street.
The most interesting thing that came forward out of these transcripts so far is that Juan is fully aware of all the tweeting by the defense!
The defense (Arias) continue to underestimate Martinez.
Nurmi also made reference to things that he had read on Twitter but this came as no surprise.
I look forward to the rest of the transcripts.
