Jodi Arias penalty phase retrial begins Monday, 9/29

[usnuzuloose]

Jury has been sent out for 10 minutes and Juan is going over this testing with DeMarte #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: DeMarte leaves the stand to consult with Martinez. Now Nurmi cites case law to Judge Stephens.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Nurmi asks that DeMarte leave the room. She's already gone. No, we don't know what this is about. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

9: Nurmi is going over some case law and wants DeMarte removed while he talks this over #jodiaria


JM consults at side of room w/Dr. De, he doesn't seem to be concerned. Dr. De reads over a piece of evidence as he walks away. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Judge Stephens is ignoring him right now as she reads #jodiarias

Room is silent. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jury is not present. Dr. DeMarte just got asked to sit outside by judge. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Stephens appears to be reading the case law on her computer. #jodiarias


Stephens appears to be reading the case law on her computer. #jodiarias

kitkat2409: She reads a paragraph that says irrelevant and prejudicial evidence should be precluded in rebuttal of mitigation phase.





9: DeMarte had re-entered and Stephens asked her to leave



urmi is wanting Judge to consider some of this info is irrelevant and prejudicial to JA character and her mitigation #jodiarias




Nurmi says testimony about to be presented is a scandalous assault on #JodiArias' character.

 

[usnuzuloose]

09: Nurmi says DeMarte is relying on name-calling. Martinez repeats a quote that #jodiarias was snide and a total ***** at family reunions.



9: Nurmi again asks DeMarte to leave and Judge asks DeMarte to step out while very agitated #jodiaria


9: Cathy @courtchatter
Oh heaven forbid we have a character assassination on the MURDERER. #jodiarias







kitkat2409: Juan is arguing that this information contradicts their defense of #JodiArias suffering in silence.






Nurmi wants it out and Juan says well her cousin said it and this cousin was around her all the time #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Martinez says that it is not unduly prejudicial given the amount of time that Dr. Fonseca and Geffner spent saying she was passive.

: Juan argues that this contradicts Geff's testimony. It validates that #jodiarias is rude & overbearing which Dr. De's test suggested.

 

[usnuzuloose]

uan says this isn't suffering in silence or a wilted flower as was testified to by Fonseca and Geffner #jodiarias

Quoting a wise person in my chat room: "Nurmi is allowed to retrial the guilt phase, but state is limited to mitigation rules" #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: JSS allows "total b" testimony. Heck to the yes. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Nurmi is saying this is mischaracterizing what Fonseca and Geffner testified too and this is an assassination on Jodi's character #jodiarias


Stephens overrules the objection. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

testimony is relevant. Jury is back. #JodiAria

 

[usnuzuloose]

Juan asking De about cousin Amy. #jodiarias

*faints* Judge Stephens allows in testimony that taints #jodiarias. Has hell frozen over?

 

[usnuzuloose]

9: 10/24/08 - Amy is the cousin
At family functions Jodi was snide, would say things with a sarcastic smile and was a total b #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias is hostile. Whispers to Willmott.


Juan asking about #JodiArias' grandparents.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jodi's maternal grandparents stated ....Nurmi wants a sidebar #jodiarias


09: Juan moves to enter a transcript of an interview w/her Grandparents. Nurmi wants to approach. Sizzle. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias is clearly sketching. Shading the left side of the paper. Looking disengaged. Some jurors stare at her.

 

[usnuzuloose]

9: #JodiArias has been taking a lot of notes during Dr. DeMarte's testimony.
