Duluth, glad you were able to use the New Reply button. I was wondering if you had the same problem I did when I first started and had to hit reply because I didn't realize I had to log in when I first came in every so often. I couldn't get to the New Reply button so I would just hit reply, log in and erase the other reply. Once I saw the log in on the first page, I just hit New Reply.
The jury came in and is still deliberating. It is nerve wracking, wondering what they are thinking and if they can come to a consensus or if they will be deadlocked.
The interesting thing about this jury is there is a woman on there who is a domestic violence victim, a male with a bachelors degree in psychology and a nurse whose mother has a mental health background. And this jury is younger and has 8 women and 4 men. They ought to be able to see through Arias' lies about mental illness, domestic violence and realize that she had to be violent and dangerous if she stabbed him 20 times in the heart, chest, back and neck, slit his throat and shot him in the head.
My husband who is an engineer and very logical and pragmatic said that he believed that the jury is going to be very offended by the defense's implying that Travis Alexander deserved to die because he watched porn and played the field, especially after Martinez showed them the autopsy pictures of Travis Alexander's corpse riddling with stab wounds and his head nearly cut off. He said Travis Alexander didn't do anything that most of the men on the jury hadn't done and they will see through the nonsense. Plus, the women are young so they wouldn't be shocked by the sex fantasies and if there are any Mormons they will be more offended by Nurmi's accusing the bishop and Deanna Reid of lying and Geffner stating that he didn't bother to interview Mormons because they would lie about sex than they would be of Travis Alexander having premarital sex and watching porn.
My husband said Martinez has retried death penalty sentencing phases before and gotten a death sentence so he knows what information he needs to give the new jury to get them to vote for death.
Juries tend to give women life rather than death but Martinez got a death sentence for the woman who tried to poison and then bludgeoned her weak helpless husband who was dying of cancer because he didn't die fast enough and then claimed self defense.
I would be so happy to watch Arias face if she gets the death sentence. She is so sure that no one would kill anyone as precious as her. That would wipe the smug smirk off her ugly face.
