#JodiArias jury told that first jury found this to be extremely cruel murder which qualifies for death

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias mitigation must be determined by them. Experts can be accepted or rejected. Police are not to be given special credibility.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jodi appears very still, no chatting with Maria #jodiarias

I wonder why the court reporter needs to take all this down, judge should just hand her a copy for her records. #jodiarias

Judge: #JodiArias mitigation: no prior record ,age, remorse, abused child. Abused Travis, emoti.stress, PTSD, borderline, impaired mental.

 

[usnuzuloose]

jurors can't hold no allocution against her. Nice, but doubtit happens. Why judge made sure #JodiArias knew it was chance to show remorse.

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Judge SS tells jurors not to consider the cost of any sentence. #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jurors also must consider #JodiArias suffers from PTSD and is remorseful for brutally killing former boyfriend #TravisAlexander


9: Judge reading #JodiArias is remorseful got a few head turns among #TravisAlexander extended family members -- even a head shake

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jodi remains very still and looking down #jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

Cathy @courtchatter
Life with the possibility of "release" after 25 years has to be confusing for jurors when it's followed by "There is currently no parole.

 

[usnuzuloose]
