#JodiArias light s were dimmed for Nurmi and now come back in like a ray of sunshine as Juan Martinez called for his opening.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Jurors scan the courtroom looking at the gallery and #JodiArias. Juan begins and Nurmi immediately objects and is overruled

 

[usnuzuloose]

GO JUAN!!


[/SIZEJuan- You will hear anguish and screams coming from that bathroom. You will see stab wounds and a shot to the face #Jodiarias

 

[usnuzuloose]

"She was a jilted woman. Travis Alexander didn't love her. Didn't want her." Martinez #JodiArias

: You will come to know the severe suffering of Travis as Juan pulls up a smiling photo of him. Nurmi objects. Sizzle. #JodiArias

: Within first minute of #juanmartinez opening statement, Nurmi objects twice #JodiArias #travisalexander

 

[usnuzuloose]

Picture of Travis is up on the big screens in court. "Travis Alexander had more tomorrows than yesterdays." Martinez #jodiarias

She loved him so much she slaughtered him #Jodiarias


The Famous photo

: Juan describes #JodiArias loved him so much she did this to him, the photo of his neck slit wide open is put up.

 

[usnuzuloose]

: "After she slaughtered him she showed up at his memorial service." Martinez #JodiArias

Travis' little sister puts her head down. Very emotional to see that image again. #JodiArias

: Juan is talking about #jodiarias peeping in Travis's windows

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias sits looking to the right at the woodgrain court wall. Nurmi objects at least 5 times so far.


Juan- #Jodiarias gave as good as she got when it came to salacious nature #3TVArias Objection/Sustained


Next can't quote Juan….

 

[usnuzuloose]

#JodiArias courtroom back to porn central. Whew. Crazy in here.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Juan- #jodiarias reported a phone stolen, there were text messages on it you will see #3TVArias


Juan darts around the courtroom as he delivers his opening statement, about 15 feet further away from the jury than Nurim was. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Jury sits motionless and pays close attention to Juan. Perhaps he is not as easy to see/hear due to size and distrance from jury. #JodiArias

I don't see any notes being taken although pens and paper are ready to go on many jurors. #JodiArias

JuanMartinez hammering the premeditation facts - passion coming out, animated #jodiArias

: Juan goes over the gas cans with Darryl Brewer and #JodiArias. The strange trip she described is mentioned.
