I really can't stand her smirks - they only make her look like an idiot.

When we have time ...
I have read a couple of places about a reflection in Travis' eye in his LAST living photo.
It would be, I think his right eye, our left screen. (That's where I kind of see it).
They are saying it is Jodi holding a camera and the knife!!
Any techies able to blow this up even further? I found the best photo I could. I know she had dark
pants on, but she might also have on a black top. Outer side of his right iris ... a reflection. I think I see it
in this one. Not clearly. Has to be bigger...?

Thanks, Joni. Going to try to watch Dr. Drew. I really can't stand his show, but for the Arias trial, he's been better.

Willmott using Travis' childhood abuse as a reason why he became an "abuser," when citing statistics that abusers were abused when they were children.

This is awful. I don't even want to see what's going to happen when Martinez gets ahold of her.

Martinez might have to be careful. How many women on Jury.....

Where is the proof that Travis was an abuser?

Jodi

Anyone ELSE tell you this or observed this behavior from Travis? Past girlfriends? friends? Anyone?

No.

No more questions.

Right. Martinez has to drop the aggressive act. Hope he doesn't manhandle her because you have a good point about the women on the jury.

You know, no matter how many awards, good credentials in how many different countries and within ours for Law Enforcement - it still doesn't take away from the fact that she is basing any favorable opinion for Jodi's sake FROM JODI. Argh!

Jodi the "battered woman" give me a break... this testimony is going to drive me nuts!!!

We will probably HAVE to go through the whole "anal sex" thing again..... all men are abusers (rapists really)... anal lovin' men even more so!!!

Travis WILL be assigned to the "Group W bench"
