[usnuzuloose]

Today is the last day of trial in State v. #JodiArias until 1/5/2015.

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias mom just waltzed in and took her seat. All by her lonesome today it seems.

 

[usnuzuloose]

So much for 9 am…

Counsel is here, Geff is chillin', judge is here... not sure what we are waiting on exactly. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Court in session. Jury seated and Dr. Geffner back on stand to continue direct. #JodiArias

: Jennifer said she forgot she wanted to ask The Geff a few questions about issues he had in other cases. She is axin him now #JodiArias

: Wilmott puts off the journals and goes to the judge that criticzed Geffner. #JodiArias

Geffner has come up in other case proceedings for some reason. Geffner doesn't sound dure why. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Geff- Yes it was a case 2 years ago. Pros was asking me questions about cases decades ago. I don't know about appeals I don't get that info

Jennifer was talking about two other cases and she and Geff point out that nothing negative was said about him. #JodiArias


Willmott- Did anyone say anything negative about your expertise? Geffner- No #jodiarias


Geffner says appellate court judge found no problems with his testimony. #JodiArias



Geffner's explaining his affidavit in one case was flawed because he didn't have time and wasn't given accurate info. Curt ruled it

 

[usnuzuloose]

Willmott- were you asked to write an affidavit? Geffner- Yes but I was only given a week to write it #jodiarias


Will- So the court said they couldn't use your affidavit correct? Geff- Yes I told them I had limitations and could only use some records

: Willmott- So onto another case. Was the Pros asking you questions and defense was objecting to what you were talking about? #jodiarias

W - Your name came up in an opinion so did it have anything to do with your expertise? Geffner- No #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Wilmmott's going over other cases that Martinnez will bring up later to let Geffner explain what happened in those cases. #JodiArias


Willmott- Was your testimony limited? Geffner- Yes #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

No crafting from #JodiArias so far. Jurors aren't taking notes or crafting either.
Willmott- So nothing about your expertise was noted on correct? Geffner- Correct #jodiarias


Geffner says he was sued bc he was a director of a clinic that was being sued in another case. Issues with flawed (cont) #JodiArias



(cont) evaluation of child in a sexual abuse case. Geffner says clinic was accused of harassing child w vocabulary. #JodiArias

Geffner's clinic was sued by a parent who's child was sexually abused and they were working with the child #jodiarias

: Geffner's clinic said this child wasn't abused. The parents sued because the kids weren't returned to the parents #jodiarias

della11111: They were also suing clinic over their techniques used with the child #jodiarias

Geffner found the girl didn't understand what she was actually saying. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Geffner ended up settling with no admission of wrongdoing. Ethics board found nothing wrong with his techniques. #JodiArias

Finally, Jennifer gets back to the journal and where they left off yesterdee. #JodiArias

ex 791 is up on the monitors showing the end of oct 2007 where a 2nd physical abuse incident happened. #JodiArias


The journal entry of #JodiArias is up. Her writing is a mixture of cursive and non cursive. I heard that means you are a bit cray.

 

[usnuzuloose]

: This was after an argument. Geffner says she didn't get into to much neg stuff in her journals #jodiarias

Geffner explains to jury that this only a portion of all the journals #JodiArias kept. Most likely more than 1,000 pages in total, he says.

The "self-blaming game" is clear in journals, Geffner says #JodiArias

#jodiarias journal statements fluctuate wildly between optimistic views of Travis and then bleak accounts of a relationship going nowhere.

: #JodiArias looks on keenly and listens to her own words as The Jennifer reads out her journal entries.

#jodiarias says in journal: "writing things down helps me process complicated, emotionally wrenching situations."
Jodi is talking about Travis saying harsh words to her and how she has to let go. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

odi is haunted by these words but she promised Travis she wouldn't write it down. #jodiarias

Jodi was living by The Laws Of Attraction #jodiarias

A few jurors taking notes #jodiarias

: #TravisAlexander made #JodiaArias rip out negative pg in journal. He told her, "Don't talk about it. Don't write about it," says Willmott

Willmott- this is power and control from Travis to tell Jodi not to write things in her journal right? #jodiarias

: Now moving on to Nov. 6 2007 journal entry. #JodiArias is talking about not being able to accept TA as her husband.
We are in the first sizzle of the day. Jurors are enjoying some complimentary tasty court water as is Geff. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias trial this morning started with defense trying to take sting out if DrG prior cases which Juan is going to hit him on cross.

Geffner points out to jury #TravisAlexander teased #JodiArias abt the topic of marriage. He had control of bringing it back into the picture

#jodiarias says "I've got to get out of here,' but expert says she just couldn't pull herself away.

11/6/07- "I just don't see why this affects me so greatly...." #jodiaria

Willmott- Is this easy for someone in this kind of depressed state? #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

I'm sure Martinez will ask how Geffner based a diagnosis on an admittedly incomplete account from journals... #jodiarias


ennifer continues to http://audible.com #JodiArias journal entries. Autotuned very high, hard to listen to.

The defense appears to be willing to read the entire Book of Jodi in this sentencing retrial. #jodiarias

#JodiArias writes that she had no one to talk about. Writes that #TravisAlexander was "tired of being the shoulder to be cried on."

"I am a powerful creator. I must wield my power carefully." - #jodiarias

While her innermost thoughts in her journal are being read to the jury, #jodiarias stares off into the middle distance towards the judge.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jeffrey Evan Gold @jeffgoldesq #JodiArias (imho..had lots of ways to control that powerful feeling. She choose to viciously murder.)

I wish I could turn back the clock. #jodiaria

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias writes she has a massive headache. Geffner says that's because she's internalizing her problems.

Next day Jodi is happy and says a cloud lifted. Geffner says this is dissociation and how people that are traumatized act. #jodiarias

#JodiArias is talking about making xmas presents for TA. She is not happy with her gift making. This shows she is in contact with him.

: Dr. Geffner is pouring over #JodiArias journal pointing out signs of a trauma victim

: Based on the amount of little yellow tabs Jennifer has on the journal entries I imagine this will go on all day. #JodiArias

Jodi isn't happy with how Travis's present is turning out and she's really excited Travis got her something. #jodiarias

#jodiarias says the anticipation is almost too much


#JodiArias atty Jennifer Wilmott and Geffner go over a wheel diagram while explaining her mood swings

 

[usnuzuloose]

12/4/07- Jodi is still hanging out with Travis. They hung out at the mall and Jodi dropped TA off at his grandmothers.#jodiarias

When the grandmother fell asleep Jodi went over to her house and cuddled with TA #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Geffner has a habit of giggling during questioning. #JodiArias

During this time period TA is telling people bad things about Jodi Juan objects to relevance and they approach #jodiarias: Geffner says #TravisAlexander had text msg friends #JodiArias wouldn't leave him alone, but is spending time w/her #JuanMartinez objects

: Geffner-while secretly have sex w/jodiarias TA is saying in text to friends nasty things about JA

#JodiArias journal 12/04/07: "I don't know where it comes from! I must be sick, I just want to die .. how easily I'm swayed 2darkness"

 

[usnuzuloose]

12/4/07- "I don't know where it comes from, I must be sick. I just want to die. I'm so overwhelmed. #jodiarias

: #jodiarias I'm striving for bigger things but I must fix my thinking"

effner says #JodiArias talks about Cuddling is more what she wants, but sex is more what #TravisAlexander wants & that sets her back

Willmott asks Geffner about #TravisAlexander open relationship w another woman, during the time of his s relationship w #JodiArias

Dr. Geffner says #JodiArias making gift for #TravisAlexander grandmother even though she can't meet her sets off depression

 

[usnuzuloose]

Geffner says friends were telling #JodiArias to get help or meidcation. pic.twitter.com/1nXRwjD3yh

#JodiArias writes in journal that she called former boyfriend Matt and he tells her she needs to be medicated.

Geffner says that is this once again "mixed messages" to #JodiArias. She continues to write in journal about being lonely and confused

Friend Matt told Jodi he thought she should be medicated, but she wanted natural cure for her feelings of loneliness and despair. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Eeeaaannnndd we are back to more journal entry amazingness. Dec 8th it is. #JodiArias
