LESSER CHARGE WOULD ALLOW JODI ARIAS OUT OF JAIL IN TWO YEARS

The Jodi Arias defense is asking the judge to rule on a motion for a lesser charge that would allow Jodi Arias to be out of jail in two years or less if the jury inititially rejects the death penalty charge.

The prosecution had to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Jodi Arias went to Mesa, Arizona on June 4, 2008 for the purpose of killing Travis Alexander. 
 
There is a lot of circumstantial evidence like gas cans and car rental receipts, but nothing that establishes premeditation beyond a reasonable doubt.

Watch famed attorney Mark Geragos discuss the Jodi Arias trial on ABC-TV here as well as a complete report including video of Arias crying when pictures are shown of her with  Travis Alexander.

JODI ARIAS TRIAL BOMBSHELL: DEFENSE TO ASK FOR LESSER CHARGES AND WILL BRING IN SURREBUTTAL WITNESS

The Jodi Arias defense team will ask Judge Sherry K. Stephens to rule on a request for lesser charges when court convenves on Tuesday. The Defense team will also bring in a surrebuttal witness to refute prosecution witness, Janeen DeMarte, testimony where she stated Arias does NOT suffer from PTSD and is NOT a battered woman, but instead has a borderline personality disorder.

Two jurors have already been excused from jury duty in the Arias trial, and with only four alternates remaing, there is very strong possibility the jury will be reduced to less than the mandatory 12 jurors and the judge would be forced to declare a mistrial.

RIGHT-WING MEDIA BLOWS COVERAGE OF BOSTON MARATHON BOMBING

The right-wing media sunk to a new low in covering the Boston Marathon bombing.

Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and the New York Post continued to feed their viewers, listeners and readers false information, and even when the facts of the bombing were known they still refused to retract what they had been saying.

They kept saying the two bombers were from Saudi Arabia even after one of them was killed and the other one captured after he was wounded, and records indicated the brothers were citizens of the United States.

The right-wing media is on a rampage to try and get the remaining brother put on a trial as an enemy combatant instead of under the Federal judicial system.

More than 600 terrorists from past years have been put on trial in the Federal court system and all of them have been found guilty.

Only three terrorists have ever been put on trial before a Military Tribunal and one of them had to be turned over to the Feds after the military failed miserably in convicting him.

The pity is there are so many people who rely on Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck for news, and they don't realize they are receiving misinformation and flat out lies.

NEWS ALERT: STRANGE TWIST IN JODI ARIAS MURDER TRIAL

The following message was culled from a website supporting Jodi Arias.  It has to do with Detective Flores, the lead investigator who charged Jodi Arias with murdering Travis Alexander.  Here is what he wrote:

Here’s an excerpt from page 12 of the Flores Police Report:

On 6-11-08, I received a tip through the Apache Junction Police Department. They had received an anonymous phone call from a female who stated we needed to look at a person named Dustin Thompson as someone who might have something to do with or might have information regarding the death of Travis Alexander. The message was short, but they were able to trace the phone number. Utilizing the phone number provided by A.J.P.D. we were able to get the subscriber information on that number, which returned to a cellular phone owned by Dustin Thompson.
A records check revealed that Dustin Thompson was married to a female named Ashley Thompson who worked at Dillard’s distribution center located in Gilbert, AZ. On 6-12-08 at 1530 hours, Detective D. Kaufman #11674 and I met with Ashley at her work for a brief interview. Ashley had a cellular phone with her during the interview. We asked for her cell phone number and confirmed it was the same number that had called in the tip to A.J.P.D. We did not confront her about the phone tip, because we were still in the process of gathering intelligence on her husband, Dustin.
Ashley confirmed she and Travis were close friends and mentioned they had known each other for about three years. She said her husband also knew Travis. During the interview, she kept referring to her husband, Dustin, as her ex-husband. She explained that they were currently in the process of a divorce and is currently living separately from him. She said they were having financial issues and it was causing stress in their marriage.
Ashley gave us basic information regarding her relationship with Travis saying they were just friends and nothing else. The last time she actually saw him or talked with him was at his last UFC (Ultimate Fighting Champion) party about three weeks ago. She said Travis would have UFC parties about every Wednesday where they would watch the fights. She said she tried to call him on Monday the 9^th of June, but she didn’t get an answer. She stated that she first heard about Travis’ death the day after he was founds. She heard from another mutual friend named Deanna. Ashley said her husband, Dustin found out about Travis that first night. When she talked to Dustin, he told her he found out that first night and went over to see what was going on. Ashley gave us information about her husband, Dustin, including his work address and work schedule. She never mentioned during the entire interview that she was the one who called in with the anonymous phone tip. We finished the interview and asked if we could contact her again if we had any additional questions. She said that was fine.

Here’s an additional excerpt from page 17 of the Flores Police Report:

After his interview with Ashley Thompson, Detective Kaufman briefed me on his findings. He said Ashley did confirm that she was the one who called A.J.P.D. and left the anonymous information about her husband. She explained that she and her husband were having a lot of difficulties and he was just acting strange during that time. She and Travis were very close and she had even asked Travis about moving in with him as a roommate after her separation from her husband, Dustin. Both she and Travis agreed it was not a good idea she move in, because of the way it might look. They were just good friends and they didn’t want people to think something inappropriate was going on. After Travis was found she thought how strange Dustin had been acting. It was during the few weeks leading up to Travis’ death that she had moved out to her own apartment and they were both dealing with the possible foreclosure of their house.
Dustin Thompson was not interviewed that day, because of time constraints. He did agree to come in on another day for an interview if needed.

Ashley Reed committed suicide on March 3^rd 2010.
It was ruled a suicide (from a single gunshot wound to the head) according to Dr Robert Lyon, Maricopa Medical Examiner.
Click here to read Ashley Reed’s autopsy report from March 5^th 2010.
In addition, click here to read a 3/13/2013 report in relation to Dr Robert Lyon, and his dubious suicide ruling in relation to the death of police Sgt. Sean Drenth. The report is entitled: “New Phoenix police documents show suicide ruling in Sgt. Sean Drenth’s death may not be correct.”
Here’s an excerpt from the ABC15 report:

“ABC15 Investigators asked the Maricopa County Office of the Medical Examiner to respond to our questions about the case and explain why Dr. Robert Lyon would not meet with the family, the county spokesperson denied our request.
An internal email obtained by the ABC15 Investigators shows Dr. Lyon reacted to our request for information by sending an email to another staff member containing the following message, “WTF.”
Lyon did not make an official ruling in the case after more than 400 days had passed since Drenth’s death.”

 

WHAT HLN IS KEEPING HIDDEN FROM VIEWERS ABOUT JODI ARIAS MURDER TRIAL

In any court proceeding, the highest burden of proof is proof “beyond a reasonable doubt.” When a person stands trial, the jury must therefore begin with the assumption that the accusations against the defendant are false.

The constitution requires the State to prove its accusations against the defendant. It is not necessary for the defendant to disprove anything. Nor is the defendant required to prove his or her innocence. It is up to the State to prove the defendant’s guilt by evidence.

A juror can only find in favor for the State at the end of the trial, providing the prosecution has erased all reasonable doubts about the defendant’s innocence from the juror’s mind.

So taking all that one step further… and putting the ridiculous burglary charge BS aside… it technically comes down to a charge of whether or not this was premeditated (i.e. pre-planned) 1st degree murder.

Contrary to the opinion of the clueless masses and non trial watchers, this is not a “Whodunit” trial – nor is it based on the color of Jodi’s hair… a Walmart receipt… a gas can… or on what someone might have said to someone else at some point. None of that matters.

In reality, it’s actually an overcharged self defense case, and a judicial farce to boot.

This is why there’ll be a Not Guilty verdict returned on the bullshit M1 charge.

You see, the jurors have to weigh up all the evidence – including the State’s LACK of evidence, and the obvious & accompanying lack of pre-meditation on Jodi’s part. And despite Martinez’ shambolic showboating escapades, the State has never even come close to proving their case beyond all reasonable doubt… not this week, not last week, not last month… and not at any other time either. Nor will they ever.

This quote (reproduced from an earlier post) sums it all up very well…

“As far as I am concerned, the only issue in the Jodi Arias trial is has the government proven premeditation. That of course, is important because if the government has not proven premeditation, they cannot convict her of murder in the first degree and thus the death penalty is off the table. And while the government has also alleged murder in the first degree by way of felony-murder, that allegation is so specious as not to even warrant a response.

The government has not proven premeditation, and in fact, could not do so under any circumstances. Without direct evidence, either a confession by Ms. Arias that she intended to kill Mr. Alexander, as in “I wanted to kill to him”, or an overt act such as hiring a hit man or waiting in wait in ambush, the government cannot prove premeditation beyond a reasonable doubt.

Note that I am not saying she did not intend to kill him or that there is not very good reason to suspect that she intended to kill him, just that the government will not be able to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. And that has been clear since day one. Someone asked me on twitter a question along the lines of “she lied so she doesn’t get the death penalty?”. My answer, yes, exactly right. To paraphrase Lt. Kaffee from a “Few Good Men”, it doesn’t matter what we know; it only matters what we can prove.

Instead of proving premeditation with direct evidence, the government is trying to do so with circumstantial evidence. So far the attempt has been, with the most charitable interpretation possible, pathetic.

While the law does not recognize a distinction between direct and circumstantial evidence, there is a jury instruction that says exactly that, the inference the government wishes the jury to draw from the circumstantial evidence is, dare I say, comically lacking.”

Yes, Martinez has his favorite autopsy pics which he’s put to good use so far, and will do in his closings… but none of those pictures prove pre-meditation either. All they prove is that the animal Jodi was defending herself against came off decidedly second best.
Jodi - the potential VICTIM – turned the tables on her attacker. Self defense. Plain & simple.

So based on all that…. the fact still remains that some of the jurors, for reasons best known to themselves, will still believe it was pre-meditated. But some of the jurors will not. So a hung jury equates to Not Guilty.

As Jose Baez said on HLN “bathroom re-enactment” show the other week…

“The physical evidence does not lie”

HLN'S NANCY GRACE SINKS TO A NEW LOW IN JODI ARIAS TRIAL

Nancy Grace, the HLN host, is the most evil person on TV and her hatred for Jodi Arias has allowed her to pile lie on top of lie as she "reports" on the trial. In this story and video from Radar on line, the pig Nancy Grace uses her sneaky tactics to try and get Jodi Arias best friend from her school days to rat on her, but all that happened is it proved what a RAT and ugly human being Nancy Grace has become.

No wonder one of the people she tried to prosecute while she was a lawyer was released and was released and raped again, and another woman committed suicide.

Nancy Grace should be removed from ever commenting on any trial.

Jennifer Willmott, defense lawyer for Jodi Arias, had Jeneen DeMarte, a clinical psychologist representing the prosecution, gulping down pitchers of water and stumbling for answers while undergoing direct examination over why she feels Arias does not suffer from PTSD.
 
Time and time again, Willmott let the jury know DeMarte failed to conduct tests that are available in determining if a person has PTSD.

The defense case is built around the fact that Jodi Arias was forced to defend herself when her ex boyfriend Travis Alexander threatened to kill her after she dropped his new camera.

Alexander tackled Arias, but she got away and found his gun in a closet and shot him as he continued to attack her.

HLN's NANCY GRACE WAILS LIKE A STUCK PIG ABOUT JODI ARIAS

When is Judge Sherry K. Stephens going to tell theTravis Alexander family (especially those two ugly sisters) to stop rolling their eyes and shaking their heads? They have been told before the trial started that they are NOT to register any signs of disgust or joy or face the possibilty of being removed from the courtroom.

Yesterday Judge Stephens placed the two Alexander sisters and their brother two rows behind Jodi Arias and attorney Jennifer Willmott in the empty jury box.

Then when the attorney were debating about a picture taken of Travis Alexander minutes before he was killed with the picture in full view, the Alexander sisters started to cry.

For God's sake Travis Alexander has been dead for five years. Stop the grandstanding.

Here is a video of how HLN's Nancy Grace "reported" on the incident in her never-ending attempt to make sure Jodi Arias gets the death penalty. And HLN has the audacity to call what Nancy Grace does as "reporting." BS. It's propaganda for the jury who I'm sure are home watching HLN every night even though they are told not to do so.

BREAKING NEWS: EARTH-SHAKING DEVELOPMENT COMING MONDAY IN JODI ARIAS TRIAL

Everyone has been speculating all weekend long about what is going to happen Monday morning in the Jodi Arias murder trial.

According to the Jodi Arias support site and one of their best contributors, this appears to be a plausible explanation of what is going to happend Monday morning:

With all the current speculation surrounding the start of the new trial week — what with Alyce LaViolette, witness tampering, Facebook death threats, Grace Wong, potential mistrials and other stuff — check out the post below from our regular contributor Al, which sheds more light on the current state of play.

Here goes…


“… I think this judge has ended up somewhere between the devil and the deep blue sea, and a lot of it is of her own choosing.

If she dismisses the case due to the public’s reaction, JM and the family is going to throw a hissy fit.

If she dismisses it due to the victim’s family’s actions it sort of puts JM in a tough spot because he probably then is faced with having to prosecute them and they’re going to throw a hissy fit.

If she declares a mistrial, the defense is going to claim that given the international hue and cry, there can be no fair trial anywhere, ever.

If I was the judge I would tell the state to make a straight up plea deal with the defense and get it over with. And the plea deal I would urge them to take is something that would be the equivalent of her having to wait for another trial, say another year or so.

I know this is going to go down rough with the Alexanders, but it’s better than opening that witness intimidation can of worms.

Now I wonder if the judge has thought this out, and the reason she wants to have Wong up first is so that, if she can find some reason to declare a mistrial based on what Wong says, it might give her a way out.

She can then declare the mistrial, have JM take a plea deal and get the whole thing cleared up. That way none of the rest of this stuff ever needs to be discussed, and she draws a deep sigh and hopes she can make sure this never happens in her court again. I bet the Hon. Sherry Stephens never has cameras in her court again.

If she cannot get some reason based on Wong’s testimony, then I suspect she’s going to have the worst few days of her life.

What a cock-up this whole thing has become, and all because this judge could not keep control of her courtroom. I bet if we didn’t have all the sensationalism originating from JM’s office and his demeanor in the courtroom you wouldn’t have this state of affairs.” — Al

WELL-KNOWN ATTORNEY MARK GERAGOS SAYS THIS IS A GOOD SIGN FOR JODI ARIAS

Well-known defense attorney Mark Geragos says it is highly unlikely the Jodi Arias jury will sentence her to death because they have gotten to know her and especially because in the jury questions they addressed them to :"JODI."

Geragos, who was appearing on the Geraldo Rivera At Large show on Fox News, says he originally thought Arias would be acquitted, but now he thinks it could end up a Manslaughter 2 verdict.

Manslaughter 2 normally carries a sentence of 15 to 20 years, but because Arias has already served five years behind bars, the sentence could be greatly reduced even to a point like Casey Anthony where Jodi Arias would be let out on bond.
If that were to happen, I would expect half the country to go into cardiac arrest.
