****Jodi Arias - Oh My Goodness!!!****

[yorkietalkjilly]

No, I didn't and you are right - the glasses fog like mad. I used to wear glasses to see far off all my life and they did fog over.

So glad that jury found she acted with extreme cruelty. Boy, that old smirky Jodi Arias is gone and that face is very sober and serious now. Too bad, Jodi.

[yorkietalkjilly]

Arias ran into a group of people she couldn't fake out or manipulate or control.

Ewww, did you see how arrogant she looked when they said the words "guilty"! I just now saw it on TV. Cold as a fish!!! Pout in place and looking daggers at that jury. Wow.

[ladyjane]

Oh yeah...and not a HINT of the tears she supposedly shed all day. Anyone who cried as long as she acted like she did would have something...swollen eyes and red nose. She is such a phony. Yes, those people have seen right through her.

[yorkietalkjilly]

Geez, I think I saw the look she must have had on her face when she retrieved her knife and gun from wherever she kept them. Dead cold and mean. She looked at that jury like that just now. If I were on that jury, I'd hope she never escapes anytime soon. I'd honest be scared of that thing.

She is a very cold person indeed....scary. I am glad she will never be out of jail or dead. Does not really matter to me as long as the public does not have to deal with the likes of her.

Wow, she turned those tears and that pitiful act off like a lightswitch. Just went cold and stoney and quietly angry. I saw hate. I'm surprised she's not keeping up her act but maybe she's thinking what is the point - these 12 folks have got my number and I'm outta strokes. Man, she's creepy.

Anyone who has ever worn glasses knows there is no way if you cried that much they would not be fogged and wet. All she does as usual is put a tissue to her nose and scrunch up that ugly face. She makes me sick.

That's what I was thinking, I saw no tears, but I did see her pressing her nose a lot and this can cause your eyes to water and your nose to get red. She would definitely be taking off her glasses if she were crying. So glad the jury wasn’t fooled by her, good job jury, keep up the good work!

For somebody that NEVER cried during all the horrific crime as it was retold over and over in court, I imagine her lawyer told her, you had better dam well show some heart and some soul when you go in there today, or they will hang you from the rafters in the courtroom this weekend!!! So she shows up squalling crocodile tears all day...I had to leave and get an ultrasound on one of my girls that is pregnant, so I missed the ending of it all......did she finally just give the act up and return to her cold, heartless self???

When they were reading the verdict, she looked very cold. I saw absolutely no emotion. I really think she's medicated, but she looked like she didn't care one way or another.

Did she get life or death???????? or is that what they were doing today?????? She got "guilty" last week...I thought they were going to decide today if she got life or death?????

[yorkietalkjilly]

She was stone cold, Judy. Looked arrogant as heck. The way she looked so intensely hateful at that jury as they were polling them, it stopped your breathing for a second. You got to see the real Jodi Arias for a bit. Today the jury had to rule on the "Aggravation" phase of the case and they said the case that she used extreme cruelty was proven. Boy, when they found against her, off flew her mask for a good while!

Today they talked about Aggravating Factors and Juan had to convince the jury that this was different than other murders in that it was crueler and Travis suffered greatly in those last 2 minutes. The jury all 12 decided that the state proved beyond a reasonable doubt that there was cruelty involved and she knowingly inflicted that pain. You need this to keep the death penalty on the table. Tomorrow will be Mitigating Factors and this is when the family will talk about how the loss of Travis has impacted their lives. Jodi’s family will also have a chance to beg for her life and Jodi will also get a chance, but she’s been saying she doesn’t want life, she want’s death, so I’m not sure if she will beg for her life. Then after that, the jury will decide, if it's life or death, but I think the judge still has a chance to soften it to life, but I don't think she will. Some say Alyce might speak during the Mitigating Factors part. That should be interesting.

You'd think the defense wouldn't let ALV anywhere near that witness stand again she was such a disaster.

I agree, I guess she was originally planned to testify, so she's on the list, but many say it would be a mistake since the jury hates her so much. I'm still thinking she will get into trouble after the trial is over for perjury.

I was disgusted with the argument that since Travis was in fight or flight mode, adrenaline was kicking in and he probably didn’t feel that much pain. It reminded me of when Willmott was arguing with the ME and she said something like, “But the bullet was only in the brain for a second.” He shook his head and said, “yeah a second is enough time.” I just think some of these lame arguments work against them.

I saw that! Yick. I've seen ALV's name cropping up all day and all the lambasting people are giving her for possibly getting on the stand again.

Nancy, wasn't that sick!!! "Oh, he was so terrified and fighting for his life so hard, his adrenalin rush kept him from hurting from all my client's repeated stabs!!!" I wanted to throw up. SERIOUSLY???
