Jodi Arias penalty phase retrial begins Monday, 9/29

[crz4mm2]

Yes, I can't even imagine if it had gone the other way.

I can't help but think this latest tactic used by the defense is a complete waste of time and money and quite frankly the blame belongs on Judge Stephens.

I gotta agree with you. I don't know what Stephens is thinking? I used to think she was doing everything under her control to prevent a mistrial... now I am not so sure.

If the court of appeals would look at her further in this trial or even watched they may see a lot of things that judge stephens has done wrong.

Don't feel bad the tweets come so fast, I don't even get to read them…..

Judge Stephens hearing other cases at the moment. #JodiArias

Is #JodiArias WRIST BRACE setting up being "intimidated" to justify secret hearing? Look at her at court yesterday. http://fb.me/3VCFg614R

9: Looking like a very short day. Judge just told lawyer in another case to come back at 1030. #JodiArias is set for 10.

 

[usnuzuloose]

This should be short , only to let the jury know they won't be back till next Wednesday.

We need some humor…...

Nurmi has on the salmon tie with hearts. So sweet. #JodiArias


'm a tad frustrated right now waiting for the #JodiArias court to begin. No previews, no Milk Duds, no popcorn. Just an empty 12" screen.

9: Prosecutor Juan Martinez has just entered the courtroom with the Alexander family in tow. #JodiArias

Willmott is here with bright salmon top and black shirt. She is talking to Juan now. #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

aaaaaaannnnnnndddddd.... #JodiArias has entered the courtroom.


: #JodiArias just arrived. Dark gray shirt, black pants. She smiles and talks to Willmott.

: Im predicting we will not learn anything new today, the issue of secrecy is being handled in secret #ironic #JodiArias


: In an extended sizzler here as counsel is still jibble jabbling with the Judge. #JodiArias sits alone, Maria is not here to hang out.

 

[usnuzuloose]

I've turned "All Rise" in to squats. RT @william_pitts We're already at sidebar and we haven't even been told to "all rise" yet. #JodiArias



: If #Nurmi fights Court of Apps decision I could c this issue going to #SCOTUS bc its a compelling issue-media/public locked out #JodiArias

: White noise continues... #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Sidebar is over. 1 juror is not present due to a medical issue. We won't go on the record until she arrives in approx 15 mins. #JodiArias


now what?

9: Stephens says a juror is late because of a medical appointment. Court public info officer just called into chambers. Here we go. #JodiArias

9: Last time @courtpio was called to chambers we got kicked out.
: #JodiArias is escorted to her sweet sideroom. Defense team exited the courtroom. More waiting.

: The woman that handles the press (court PIO) just got called into chambers with judge #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

9: #JodiArias taken 2holding cell -- defense team heads 2 Atty conference room -- Prosecution remains in the courtroom --court on hold

9: Juan Martinez is milling around. #JodiArias in a holding cell, Nurmi & co outside



: PIO Karen Arra is out of Judge Stephens' chambers and in the room with the TV camera. #JodiArias Let me guess what happens next.

 

[usnuzuloose]

9: Apparently #JodiArias was filmed talking to someone at the defense table and it was broadcast. Nurmi is angry. Camera guys say nothing new



Judge Stephens returns to courtroom but we think the cameras might be getting pulled #JodiArias



9: Stephens is hinging on the word "broadcast" in an earlier order. #JodiArias


One juror is having medical issues and not available for another hour, JSS says lets dismiss jury until Wednesday #JodiArias

 

[usnuzuloose]

9: Juror can't make it so they will be called and told not to come back till Nov. 12th, 9:30am MST #JodiArias #

Media PIO informs media #JodiArias Atty claims people can read lips when cameras show JA talking w/mitigation specialist MDLR


: Jury will be ordered to return Wednesday at 9:30 and #JodiArias is finished for the day.

 

[usnuzuloose]

: Nurmi says video showing JA w/mitigation specialist MDLR violates. Attorney/client conference camera rules - but MDLR is not an atty


: Believe that #Nurmi is upset that #JodiArias was recorded yesterday in trial and broadcast, he will likely file a motion re it


9: So, it makes sense #Nurmi will file a motion re camera broadcasting a discussion btw her team and #jodiArias Rule 122(k)(3)


9: Cathy ‏@courtchatter 51s52 seconds ago
@monicalindstrom Correct and she was NOT off the bench when it was recorded

 

[usnuzuloose]

: #JodiArias Atty claims cameras violated Rule122.k3 no bench conf recorded or aired or Atty conf @ table w/JA -- playing #hardball


Guess #JodiArias defense team doesn't want us to show you social time with mitigation specialist MDLR


Just been told there is NO #JodiArias court AT ALL until next Wed. Doc Brown will invent the flying Delorean before this case ends.

nevermind

: #jodiarias An explanation re Motion for Joinder and for Omnibus Hearing on Motion to Dismiss Death Penalty [filed by def.]:
The motion filed requests two separate issues. One is Joinder and the other is for an Omnibus Hearing.





: As for the joinder issue, this one can be many different things. My initial thought is the defense is seeking the joinder of the media attorney in seeking a stay of the proceedings until the COA decision is reached. Nurmi may be seeking some help in not moving forward and presenting their witnesses out of order. It can also be many other things possibly dealing with multiple motions related to the sealed testimony and witnesses. We will have to wait to find out.




Let's deal with the easy one first. The Omnibus Hearing on Motion to Dismiss the Death Penalty is the defense requesting an opportunity to present all new and old reason why ‪#‎JodiArias‬ should not be eligible for the death penalty. Omnibus simply means a multiple of theories will be presented.

 

[usnuzuloose]

Above info may be speculation, not sure yet

 

[usnuzuloose]

Oh , here is some um, lets just say that Jodi's trial is going into Feb 2015 with all the motions Nurmi has filed…..

 

[usnuzuloose]

This motion filed is real. Good grief a long way to go in the penalty phase….

Hi everyone

Am I seeing this correctly, there is now a camera in the courtroom?
Just back from vacation and I have missed a lot over the last week or so.

Thank you!
