Too bad Pre Paid Legal didn't represent Jodi. They could have got her off the death penalty and got all this advertisement.
Guess she didn't pay her monthly premium.
Instead they distanced themselves from Travis and changed their name.
Interesting info fruitlassie, thanks. It's been weeks ago that I read his report and compared to daily life it kind of sunk into the background for me.
Let me make sure I'm understanding you correctly. When Verizon stated the last recorded calls, does that mean recorded by ARIAS or Verizon? What about a pre-purchased phone that could be thrown away?
A Verizon employee testified for the defense back in January as to the time and date of the last recorded (by Verizon) calls Travis made to Jodi. They were on June 2. So he might have been expecting her, or they could have argued about Cancun, etc. and it's possible he did not realize she would show up at his house. I suppose we'll never know for sure.
Didn't think Alyce could make my blood pressure go any higher, but I was gobsmacked this morning when a jury member asked her if Jodi couldn't have been the abuse perpetrator since Travis was the one with a gunshot to the head, close to 30 stab wounds and a four inch deep cut to the throat...and she said no. Is she the most obtuse person alive? I hope the end of her professional reputation was worth it to her.
I really like this artwork of Jodi Arias, published in the Phoenix Times, by artist Graham Smith.
I feel the artist truly captured the deadness in her eyes in a very compelling way. Its an excellent portrait in that sense- because it conveys something very meaningful about the inner person who it portrays.

Alyce drives me nuts with her answers. It is almost as if she either hates men or something in her past identifies with Travis. I did remember that, on the stand, she testified that she had some male friends – she did not mention her home life or husband. I tried to find out personal information about her. I did find twenty pages of her achievements – most dealing with battered women. I really do not want to condemn Alyce of being a male hater without talking to her or interviewing her best friends. I need first hand information – but hasn't Alyce condemned Travis on her feelings and suspicions and lies?
It just goes against my grain to condemn the dead without going the extra mile. Hearsay, from a known liar, does not meet that qualification. It does not make me think better of the 'expert'.

That woman made me sick too. What on earth is wrong with her, is she being paid so much that she will say anything.

I really don't know if she hates men in general but the contempt she displayed toward "Mr. Martinez" and the true victim in this case, who she never met, is enough to make me loathe her. If she sincerely believes the stuff she was saying, she's way too naive and clueless to be an expert on any kind of human behavior. If she didn't believe it, she's simply unprofessional and unethical for saying what she did just for a paycheck. Either way, the jury cannot be impressed with her testimony and the judge seems disgusted with her too. Is she going to be in trouble for perjury, for talking to Travis's sister, or both?
The one line that Alyce came up with that made me fall out of my chair was the one where one of the jury questions was about Jodi being such a good liar. Alyce's response was something to the effect that "Jodi isn't a very good liar otherwise she would have come up with a BETTER STORY than the one that she told. " WHAT ??????? I think Jodi is even a better liar than Casey Anthony, and that is saying something !!!!!
I mean, Jodi can come up with tall tales as if she is reading them chapter and verse, and she does it right on the run. Her lies are so elaborate that to say she isn't an accomplished liar shows exactly how Alyce has rose colored glasses on in her assessment of Jodi.
Jodi is so crooked that if you shook hands with her you would have to count your fingers afterward.
Last week's trial seemed to me exceptionally straining to follow. And I'm at home on a comfy couch, with snacks!!
I would imagine the jurors are fatigued. Adding Friday might have been pushing it, one juror went down on day 5 of that week. If it was only 4 days, he would have had the 3 day weekend to recover.
Judge Stevens seemed snippy. Then, Jodi allegedly tweeting with help from a past jail-mate, photo's of Alyce dining with ticket # 36 ,supposedly Travis talking from beyond the 'grave'...(he would have been 36 this year on his birthday....)
Even Juan was uncharacteristically silly...asking if Alyce had "interviewed Travis".
I half expect HNL to arraigned a seance with Travis....or have their 'psychic' talk to him....... geez.....what's next??

Going to bid on it, KittenSparkles? I hear Ebay shut her acct. down so now she has her own website to show her art.
Excuse for being so ignorant..... are these OLD paintings she did sometime in the past, or are these somehow new paintings?
Nice post - ok, informational post
