The Purple Plum and more.... Written by: Edie Morse


"Nicole was a waitress at Purple Plum: 'JA said she was a goddess, smelled like a goddess, looked like a goddess. She was all over the men'" - Jen, Trial Diaries, 02/03/2015
"Goddess" is what Skank believes herself to be. Ted Bundy said:-- “Murder is not about lust and it's not about violence. It's about possession. When you feel the last breath of life coming out of the woman, you look into her eyes. At the point, it's being God.”
Skank believes herself to be a "God", above the law... and feels entitled to brutally slaughter those who do not please her. She savagely butchered Travis Alexander to death, and she has threatened the life of the prosecutor, Juan Martinez, i.e. to have him murdered if she gets the Death Penalty.
The "Purple Plum" incident was revealed during Juan Martinez's direct examination of Dr. Janeen DeMarte, yesterday, and it exposed to this jury that Jodi Arias is not the innocent victim of men. The stereotypical myth that the "male" is always the sexual predator, and that the "female" is always the victim who recoils in horror but then reluctantly gives into male domination was exploded to smitherings in the courtroom by Juan Martinez and Dr. DeMarte. That age-old myth certainly does not apply in Jodi Arias' case. In the aftermath of having gutted her victim, Travis Alexander, to death, nearly decapitating him, and then shooting him in the head, this is what she did:--

Jodi Arias Arias was all over the men... she was inappropriate with Edgar, at the "Purple Plum". The manager of the restaurant said that Jodi Arias would ignore the female & other customers and hone in on the handsome young men:--
The Trial Diaries, 02/03/2015:--
"This is an interview with Gary Brinkman the owner of the "Purple Plum":--
"Gary knew Jodi since she was 17"
"Gary said in 2008 Jodi came back and wanted a job. She only paid attention to the men and ignored the female customers. She flirted with the good looking guys. Jodi used men and once pretended she just moved to Yreka and asked the guy to show her around".
"Julie Arias was interviewed. Jodi's half sister - Jodi stopped at Julies after TA's memorial. Jodi gave a guy her name and number and then she called this guy from Julies house."
Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial:--
"She would go right to the men & ignore the women & other customers. Must more friendly & flirtatious with the good looking guys"
Tammy Rose @News20Chopper:--
"Dr. DeMarte reading testimony from one of #JodiArias' bosses. "She would go right to the men and ignore other customers."
Jodi Arias was not a meek, innocent, virginal little flower... She was very aggressive sexually, and although JA & Co. have dishonestly portrayed Travis Alexander as a hyper-sexual predator, who hunted down his female prey and then coerced or pressured them into sex, his own past girlfriends tell of a very different experience:-- for they have described him as respectful always of their own wishes. The testimony by Jodi Arias' co-workers & even own words reveal just the opposite too, of the perjurious fraud that JA & Co. have perpetrated upon both juries. Jodi Arias manipulated men using sex, because that was the only way that she could attract their attention. These are a few of Jodi Arias' own text messages & words from the infamous "sex-tape" to Travis Alexander:--
Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial:--
"JA is texting TA she wants a facial and will give TA a BJ, or they can just grind." (DeMarte has a way hotter voice than Willmott reading these smutty texts lol)
Wild About Trial @WildAboutTrial:--
"Maybe you could give my ass a much needed pounding too." De reads, Juan confirms "assertiveness" & self-esteem"

" DeMarte says this shows Jodi is assertive"
"Jodi is telling TA she wants to lick him up and F him like a dirty horny school girl"
' DeMarte says JA expressed her desires and it wasn't dictated by TA" - (Courtesy of Shelley Shaffer)
Jodi Arias was demeaning towards her family members too, and her cousin Aimee described her as acting like a "bitch", always correcting everybody else's grammar, and her grandparents revealed that the killer complained that she did not want "anyone ruling her life". ... That describes the kind of self-absorbed, cry-baby complaints that I can picture Jodi Arias howling during one of her many temper-tantrums:-- "I won't let anybody rule my life!"... "Nobody is going to tell me what to do!"... "I can do whatever I want!". Nothing will contain Jodi Arias. There is no law; no boundaries; and, no moral canon that she respects. Jodi Arias is a law unto herself. She always was, and she always will be.
No society can allow violent thugs & goons who have no respect for the law to run-amok... because then the citizens cannot live with any security. No society can permit self-indulgent predators to invade the boundaries of other people... for the people can then not enjoy any peace of mind. No society can watch while a psycho-butcher tramples asunder any moral canon which restrains the members of that culture from preying upon and destroying the lives of other people. Society has the right, and even the obligation, to punish those perpetrators of violent crimes, like murder, rape, theft, and stalking, harassment, and fraud too, in order to create an environment in which law-abiding people can live without fear.
Jodi Arias has violated the most sacred law established by God and Man:-- i.e. she committed Murder. Jodi Arias was not acting in self-defense. She tracked down her prey, tormenting him, and killed him in a heinous, depraved, and cruel manner, simply because he had rejected her. In the aftermath of her brutal slaughter of Travis Alexander, she went a sexin' man after man after man. Jodi Arias has never suffered any genuine remorse. In fact, she has relished her far more than "15 Minutes of Fame", and has exploited social media over the past year-and-seven months, since the hung jury, in May 2013, in order to hock her worthless crap for money; and to dupe the weak-minded into donating money to her JAA Appeals Fund scam; and worst of all, to continue to malign her victim, Travis Alexander, with the most malicious lies. Jodi Arias deserves the Death Penalty.

Edie Morse The AZ Media hacks who shill for the powerful AZ Defense Attorney Lobby are already starting to scapegoat the State for the length & cost of this never-ending final penalty re-trial. A recent AZ article says:--

"The Jodi Arias penalty trial has begun 
a fifth month with no clear end in sight. ... It's unclear how much longer the prosecution will need to reinforce what it began in October."

I think it's unclear as to how much longer that JA & Co. will "need" to reinforce what it began in May 2013! The AZ Media don't both to ask why this sentencing phase has been dragged on for so long! "It's not Juan Martinez, Stupid!" The State's prosecutor has taken less than a quarter of the time that this unethical defense team have squandered thanks to an incompetent, biased, and corrupt judge, Judge Sherry Stephens (JSS), who has allowed JA & Co. to defraud the Court with "hired gun" charlatans posing as "experts" but who have filibustered with lie after lie after lie; fraudulent "affidavits" concocted by the convicted murderer & her criminal cohorts; and, worst of all a fabricated "Porn-Gate" created to delay the trial & waste time; trash the victim, Travis Alexander; and, malign the prosecutor with perjurious allegations. 

"Porn-Gate" never should have been allowed in, in the first place. Like the fake, forged pedophile letters manufactured by JA to frame Travis Alexander for non-existent pedophilia:-- it was FRAUD. JA & Co.'s entire bogus defense case is retrying the original guilt phase of the trial, in violation of the law... and, they are retrying it by defrauding the Court & the Jury. There is no evidence that Travis Alexander was even remotely interested in "porn"; and, no evidence that the State "mishandled" evidence. By contrast, there is much evidence that JA & Co. have done so-- and imo, Jodi Arias, her PI Dorian Bond, Bryan Neumeister, and, Maria "Smuggler" De La Rosa should be investigated for having concocted this dishonest scheme. Jodi Arias enjoys an "indigent" classification, although she is permitted to swindle the AZ taxpayers, all because JSS has delayed the re-trial over and over and over again for this convicted murderer! 

A more experienced judge would have kept "Porn-Gate" out, in the first place... for it has been the trigger for so many delays & dishonest trashing of the victim and the prosecutor. Juan Martinez must fight this... but, what JA & Co. really want is to get to the "Omnibus Hearing" so that the DP will be taken "off-the-table", although the "Omnibus Hearing" is a pretrial hearing-- and, JA is not in any kind of "pretrial" status. Of course, by then, it may become a moot issue, because over time, jurors may drop off like flies. I think that JA & Co. are throwing stuff at Juan Martinez, which requires that Det. Smith has to try to perform more research in order to explain "Porn-Gate" fully... They have sent him on a "Wild Goose Chase", to blame Juan Martinez for the delays. 

JSS and JA & Co. need to be held accountable by the public; and, all of the over 120 sealed documents; the many secret, sealed hearings, and the myriad illegal "ex-parte" meetings which triggered this undue deference by JSS towards the convicted murderer & her unethical defense team, all should be made public... and then, you will find out why this farcical, rigged re-trial has cost the AZ taxpayers so much of their hard-earned dollars!!!

Refer to:--

http://www.azcentral.com/.../12news-jodi-arias.../22796081/




Edie Morse This morning, JSS will entertain Nurmi's motion asking that Det. Smith's testimony be precluded from evidence:--

* 1/30/2015 MOT - Motion - Party (001) 2/2/2015 

NOTE: MOTION TO PRECLUDE TESTIMONY OF MESA PD DET. SMITH FOR FAILURE TO TIMELY DISCLOSE REPORT PRIOR TO TESTIMONY

I think that this motion to ask that Det. Smith's testimony be precluded has been Nurmi's real target, and that his motion filed yesterday asking to preclude Dr. DeMarte's testimony, which he knew that JSS had to reject, was a diversionary tactic. Det. Smith can show that Neumeister lied, and that "Porn-Gate" was a fraud, imo... and, when that is "blown out of the water"-- JA & Co.'s fraudulent defense crumbles into dust, and also, Jodi Arias will have no appellate case whatsoever. 

Juan Martinez has every right ot present evidence to defend the malicious allegations made against Travis Alexander because there is no evidence that he watched "porn" (of course, even if he did, so what?), and moreover, no evidence whatsoever that the State "mishandled" or "tampered" with evidence. Nurmi does not want the truth exposed to the jury.



 In my opinion, JSS is incompetent, biased, and corrupt... She has violated the US Constitution by shrouding the trial proceedings in an unconstitutional cloak of secrecy, until the AZ Court of Appeals overturned her unlawful ruling, in what highly respected constitutional attorneys have considered to be an outlandish decision in letting a convicted butcher testify in secret. There are no "National Security" issues at stake in this trial... and, Jodi Arias has no right to demand undue deference over and above that which is defined by law and awarded to other convicted murderers.

Moreover, JSS has trampled asunder the AZ Victims' Bill of Rights over the past year-and-seven months, by entertaining many (not just one or two) "ex-parte" meetings with JA & Co., and excluding the prosecutor, Juan Martinez, and the Alexanders, who have a right to be present when discussing anything material affecting the tria itselfl. JSS's inappropriate, and possibly illegal "ex-parte" meetings resulted in delay after delay after delay, and unconstitutional secrecy for over a year, which is in violation of the AZ Judicial Code of Conduct, requiring prompt action in adjudicating over trial issues. Over 120 documents have been sealed; many hearings have been sealed; and, the "ex-parte" meetings have been secret. This represents a violation of the precious principles of transparency in criminal trials which is upheld by the US Supreme Court in their protection of the US Constitutional rights of the victims, and the public, as well as of the defendant.

"Porn-Gate" is fraudulent, in my opinion. And it is the judge's role to act as the gatekeeper to ensure that evidence presented into the Court, during a penalty phase, is proven to be true and properly vetted. Instead, JA & Co. have not argued a "mitigation case"-- but, they are re-trying their guilt phase, because, imo, JSS does not want the convicted murderer to get the DP. JSS simply has allowed JA & Co. to run-amok over the past year-and-seven-months, since the hung jury, in May 2013. This is not right... it's unethical.. and yes, in my opinion it is corrupt. Corrupt because a judge has an obligation to balance the rights of the defendants with the rights of the victims. JSS has failed miserably to do so... and, to-date she has shown an extraodinary bias towards the convicted murderer & her unethical defense team, which is unacceptable, imo. And, her incompetence in managing the courtroom is on-show each and every day. Corruption is derived from focusing on the demands of one side over the other. For this, JSS should be held accountable, imo.



Edie Morse "Corruption":-- "An act done with an intent to give some advantage inconsistent with official duty and the rights of others. It includes bribery, but is more comprehensive; because an act may be corruptly done, though the advantage to be derived from it be not offered by another. Merl. Rep. h.t." - Legal Definition, http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/corruption

In my opinion, the undue deference that JSS has granted to Jodi Arias is corrupt. This not not a case whereby one can chalk-up all of the many, many benefits & special favors that JSS has awarded to the convicted murderer, Jodi Arias, over the course of the past year-and-seven months, since the hung jury, in May 2013, to "mistakes". JA & Co. call Skank's brutal slaughter of Travis Alexander a "mistake" too. The abuse of the word "mistake" undermines the gravity of the infringement of the rights of the victims.

The over 120 sealed documents; the transcripts from the many sealed hearings; and, the transcripts from the myraid "ex-parte" meetings between JSS and JA & Co. need to be made public; and furthermore, imo, the AZ Commission on Judicial Conduct ought to conduct a thorough investigation into the violations of the law committed by JSS in this case in order to ascertain whether or not that she should be asked to resign. No judge in this country is above the rule of law. Not JSS of the AZ Maricopa County Superior Court, who is a publically-elected official.


Edie Morse Earlier (scroll above) I cited the legal definition of the word "corruption". Without "beating a dead horse", it might be interesting to revisit the common usage of the word "corruption" too:--

cor·rup·tion noun \kə-ˈrəp-shən\ : dishonest or illega
l behavior especially by powerful people (such as government officials or police officers) ... -http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/corruption

I do not believe that JSS has taken financial bribes, for example... I simply think that she has corrupted the trial proceedings in this case, and that her bias towards the convicted murderer & her unethical team, for whatever motive (e.g. fear or sympathy) and her sheer-and-utter incompetence has made a mockery of our justice system.

Recall the words of Former Federal Prosecutor & Veteran Defense Attorney, Michael Volkov, who has said:--

"Judge Stephens is a judge who has no business being a judge – an official who undermines any concept of the administration of justice. My laundry list of complaints goes on for pages and I will not take up too much space writing about all of them..."... 

Continued on:-- http://www.corporatecomplianceinsights.com/the-jodi.../

And, remember too, David Bodney's, a highly respected constitutional lawyer, who warned us:--

..."... The trial court has gone from transparency to blackout and bewilderment," said attorney David Bodney, who represents several media outlets, including the Arizona Republic, fighting for transparency. "There have been repeated flagrant violations of the public's constitutional right to attend proceedings."..."...

..."... [David] Bodney says the judge has gone to the extreme, often simply locking the courtroom doors without issuing an order as to why, in violation of the U.S. Constitution. "The public is deprived of its First Amendment right to attend criminal proceedings," Bodney said. "The public has a right to be heard before they're just locked out." The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees such basic rights as freedom of speech and the press. 

Even arguments by attorneys over media access to proceedings in the case have been closed to the media. An irony not lost on Bodney is that the intense media interest in the case has largely evolved from Arias' own actions by courting interviews and operating a Twitter account and selling her artwork from behind bars through a third party. She regularly posts inspirational quotes, links to purchase her drawings and solicitations for donations for her appeals..."... Source:-- http://www.usatoday.com/.../jodi-arias-trial.../3797175/

Edie Morse Steve Krafft @SKrafftFox10 · 25s25 seconds ago "So for you folks playing at home, we wound up today with 20 sidebar conferences." 

In approx. 5 or so hours of court time (i.e. not including lunch & normal breaks), that makes for approx. a bit less th
an 3-4 sidebars per hour. Amusing, when Former Federal Prosecutor & Veteran Defense Attorney Michael Volkov said:-- 

..."... Judge Stephens lost control of the courtroom from the very beginning. She permitted the defense to request sidebars whenever they felt like it, dragging out the case, making incessant and ridiculous objections. It is a wonder that Juan Martinez still has his hair. When a judge loses control of the courtroom they undermine the very integrity of the judicial process. I have seen judges who run a tight, efficient trial and make clear their expectations of the participants. (One judge used to deny requests for a sidebar, and require the parties to stay after the jury leaves and consider them late in the evening)..."...

Edie Morse Well done to Juan Martinez & Dr. Janeen DeMarte again today. They completely obliterated JA & Co.'s bogus "PTSD - Domestic Violence Victim - Foggy-Girl" scam over the past two days. Jodi Arias' many mailcious and self-serving lies have come back to haunt her... and she has finally been exposed as a dangerous sado-narcissistic psychopath-cum-murderer, without a shred of humanity. She deserves the Death Penalty, and the Alexanders deserve the peace of mind never to have to look at her again, when this nightmarish trial is over. A few highlights from today's trial proceedings:--

Edie Morse This evening, I was thinking that Juan Martinez accomplished more on the witness stand in 2 days with Dr. Janeen DeMarte, in terms of the material covered, than JA & Co. did with the week or more that they dragged out the mind-numbingly boring & perjurious testimony given by Dr. "Guff" Geffner! The vast superiority of Juan Martinez's legal acumen & his integrity versus the clumsiness &, dishonest filibustering by Willmott & Nurmi could not be more transparent. Any other judge would have shut Willmott & Nurmi down years ago, and made them behave like respectable advocates, instead of the unscrupulous bottom-feeders which they have proven to be. JSS has allowed JA & Co. to disrupt the trial proceedings to an extent that is unacceptable, imo.


Edie Morse Jeff Gold talks about how Jodi Arias is the aggressor, not the victim... and, he describes how Dr. Janeen DeMarte has wrecked the bogus defense case which is clearly a load of rubbish:--

Edie Morse Somebody PMed me that JSS held back some details about the "Purple Plum" incident from being exposed by Juan Martinez & Dr. DeMarte yesterday. From her info, she indicates that the restaurant owner was about to fire Skank for giving Blow-Jobs (and also, possibly soliciting for sex in exchange for cash) to other employees & customers... (during working hours?)... but, that Skank quit before she was fired, and that's when she bought her weapons (gun & knives); packed her car; and, was planning to flee to Mexico. She said that JSS likes to give "middle-of-the-road" rulings so that each side gets "something". But that's NOT justice! In a criminal trial, the Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth is supposed to be revealed... JSS is desperate to be "liked"!!!

P.S. By the way, who is "Edgar" (the man that Skank was "kissing" in the "Purple Plum")? How old was "Edgar"? There is more to the story than JSS allowed to be told in the courtroom.


Until I had more than one source provide me with this information, I did not post it... One of the sources is in Phoenix, AZ, and has proven to be right about a number of issue related to this case. I trust these individuals, and figure that the owner of the "Purple Plum" will be allowed to reveal the full truth of what took place, once the trial is over.


 Why do you think that Jodi Arias was seen to whisper "Oh My God!" during the initial guilt phase, when Juan Martinez was cross-examining Alyce LaToilette about the "Purple Plum" incident, and that WIllmott ran up to the bench, and got JSS to preclude them from discussing it any further? 

JSS would not permit anything to do with the "Purple Plum" incident to be exposed to the last jury. Juan Martinez was able to get "bits-and-bots" out this time around, and it's the first that we've all learnt about Skank's "kissing" of this "Edgar" at the "Purple Plum"... 

... I maintain that there is far more to this story than what we've learnt to-date. Nurmi fought hard yesterday for anything to be revealed about the "Purple Plum" incident, and there was an exceptionally long sidebar... and, he is not fighting just to keep out that Skank "kissed" some guy in a restaurant. JSS restricted Deanna Reid, not allowing her to tell this jury that Travis Alexander left her his beloved Napoleon, and she would not allow Abe Abdelhadi to tell the jury that the "Mormon" Jodi Arias told him that she had "magic" in her panties... JSS restricts that which will do too much damage to her Skank, whom she does not want to get the DP.

Edie Morse Vis-a-vis this sealed document (scroll above), Juan Martinez should be allowed to show this nasty e-mail to this jury, in order to expose the kind of vicious, opportunistic creeps, like Marc McGee, who are willing to lie for Skank and to intimidate honest prosecution witnesses like Deanna Reid. I expect there to be a lot more nasty attacks upon the State's witnesses, because JA & Co. are really the "win at all costs" vermin. I'm sick and tired of JSS's seal-crazy mania, to protect Skank. 

There is much being covered-up, e.g. the "Purple Plum" incident, which I have been informed by 2 credible sources (who are proven correct, most of the time) that not all was allowed to be revealed yesterday. Juan Martinez was ordered by JSS to keep it restricted; just as she ordered Deanna Reid not to reveal that Travis Alexander left her his beloved Napoleon, and Abe Abdelhadi who was not allowed to reveal that the "Mormon" Jodi Arias told him that she had "magic" in her panties. 

JA & Co. have dredged the bottom-of-the-sewers to come up with perjurious witnesses; false "affidavits"; and, fabricated "evident" (e.g. "Porn-Gate"), and let's face facts:-- Neither Nurmi, nor Willmott have any professional ethics whatosever. I don't think that they take oaths seriously in AZ... for JSS too is allowing them to run-amok. Today, Nurmi will cast aspersions upon Dr. DeMarte, and the people whom she quoted yesterday (Travis' friend, Reagan, and Skank's Cousin Amy, for example)-- and, watch him try to destroy them both with lies concocted overnight by Skank & her Mommy Dearest. This is going to get ugly, and JSS ought to let Juan Martinez expose this fraud.


Thank you. I would be grateful for any feedback that you get hold of... My sources did not reveal from whom they obtained the info regarding the "Purple Plum"-- but imo, it is important that the Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth be exposed!

Some bloggers are already saying that it could be that the "mental illness" defense (Borderline Personality Disorder) is the mitigating factor that takes the DP "off-the-table" for the jurors-- but, everyone who commits a 1st degree premeditated murder has a "screw loose"-- and ergo, hopefully Juan Martinez will be able to argue that BPD is not debilitating, and that she made a choice, and must be held accountable.

Jodi Arias did not suffer from "mental insanity", which would have rendered her ineligible for the DP, because by law, a person suffering from schizophrenia, for example, does not know what they are doing. By contrast, Skank knew exactly what she was doing when the psycho-butcher brutally slaughtered Travis Alexander.

"#JodiArias happy any talk about metal decease which is a mitigation factor. IMHO Jodi planned, executed, and covered up becuase she is #EVIL"


The Gold Patrol™ @thegoldpatrol 
"#jodiarias Nurmi saying that people are born with tendencies to certain disorders. DeMarte says that environment can awaken tendencies."

Jen's Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ 
"Nurmi wants examples of Jodi not being validated? DeMarte says Jodi told her that her parents wouldn't validate her emotions #jodiarias"

My goodness gracious. How many people do not get "validation" and have their "egos" stroked constantly-- but they do not grow up to be slags taking out their frustrations by brutally slaughtering to death a lover who rejects them??? Get real!!!

Interesting that Nurmi may be hoisted by his own petard. Initially, JA & Co. argued that Skank was "normal" until after she met Travis Alexander, and that she changed for the worse, due to the trauma that they dishonestly claim that he inflicted upon her. All lies... Now, Nurmi wants to claim that Skank suffered abuse as a child, making her "mentally ill"... due to the horrendous way that she was mistreated as a child... All lies too, imo. 

But, he can't have it both ways:-- Was Skank "normal" until after Travis Alexander "abused" her? Of course not... But, that's what they have tried to claim... trashing the victim. Now, they are playing their "Pity Ploy" that Skank has suffered from a "mental illness" due to abuse by her own parents... but then, why is there no evidence of any abuse? And, wouldn't BPD be insufficient cause to "excuse" her for her brutal slaughter of Travis Alexander since she was not incapacited from making decisions and taking actions. 

I think that Juan Martinez needs to show that BPD did not cripple Skank from working; sexing men; travelling; being a cunning, manipulative liar; and, ultimately plotting to murder Travis Alexander, and then carrying out her vicious butchery. If every convicted murderer was "excused" for their crime on the basis of some kind of personality malfunction, nobody would get the DP


Edie Morse Jen's Trial Diaries @TrialDiariesJ ·
"No evidence anyone got Jodi help." 


Uh-huh. Yeah right. To be frank, I think that people assume that it's easy to get somebody help; but has anybody checked the costs of obtaining psychological help for a child? It's hellishly expensive. Working parents aren't always able to get help; and there are no school reports to show that teachers or counsellors advised Skank's parents to obtain help. 

Subsequently, once a young person leaves home, then what's a parent supposed to do? They can't jump in their car and kidnap her, for goodness sakes! Skank left home at the age of 16 or 17 years old. Her parents could not bind-and-gag her and force her to seek treatment. Skank is the kind of psycho-sado-narcissist who would have told then to "Go To Hell! You're Not Going To Control My Life!" if her parents had suggested to her that she seek help. 

That's really disingenuously glib to say that somebody else should have sought help for Skank. Perhaps, Skank should have sought help for Skank-- except she didn't because she considers herself to be smarter than Einstein; more talented than Vincent Van Gogh; and, a "Goddess"! I didn't know that "Goddesses" accepted help from others!!!


Edie Morse Recall Kirk Nurmi calling Dr. Janeen DeMarte, "Dr. Death" this morning? 

Of course, you've all heard of the Nazi doctor, Dr. Josef Mengele, called "The Angel Of Death" for his cruelty & gruesome experiments upon prisoners at the Auschwitz Death Cam
p. Also, there was another such War Criminal named "Aribert Ferdinand Heim, a Nazi fugitive and concentration camp doctor, [whose search] has officially come to a close, the German authorities said Friday, after they determined that the man known as Dr. Death for his unnecessary operations had died in Egypt in 1992." 

Is this what Nurmi has finally stooped to? The lowest of the low. Defaming this bright, professional, and honest psychologist, Dr. Janeen DeMarte, by attempting to ruin her, with such a malicious appellation in recollection of a Nazi War Criminal. Others have been called "Dr. Death", since then, including Jack Kevorkian, who assisted terminally ill patients to end their lives. Also, Walter Birkby, a highly respected forensic anthropologist who "testified in some of the most high-profile homicide cases in Pima County and was in demand in other jurisdictions as well" was affectionately referred to as "Dr. Death". 

If confronted, Nurmi would probably say that he was thinking of Mr. Birkby, and not Dr. Heim... but still... imo, Nurmi sunk to a new low today, and I hope that the jurors were not impressed with his attempt to malign Dr. Janeen DeMarte. Shame on Kirk Nurmi.. and, shame on JSS for not admonishing him for name-calling, using such highly-charged, derogatory name.

Source:-- http://www.nytimes.com/.../germany-ends-hunt-for-nazi-dr...

Nurmi would back-down and say that he was paying her a compliment, as per:-- http://tucson.com/.../article_65291ae3-bf2c-5f46-8ae0...


Edie Morse Intellectual disability is differentiated by the Courts from mental illness. The State's psychologist, Dr. Janeen DeMarte, diagnosed Skank with Borderline Personalithy Disorder (BPD), which is designated as a serious "mental illness", according to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). 

Jodi Arias has Bordeline Personality Disorder (BPD) which is a "mental illness"-- but which is not equivalent to "mental insanity". During the initial guilt phase of the trial, from January - May 2013, JA & Co. fought against Dr. DeMarte's diagnosis of BPD... but, since that time they decide to "turn the tables" and to adopt it as a "mitigating factor", which JSS allowed them to do, because "mental illness" can be taken into account by the jury when rendering her sentence of the Death Penalty or Life; unlike her other fraudulent mitigating factors, which are without corroboration, and ergo, JSS should not have permitted, by law. 

However, "mental illness" does not preclude a convicted murderer from being given the DP. In fact, most cold-blooded killers have a "screw loose". Therefore, that Skank has a "mental illness" does not mean that she does not deserve the DP. Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Charles Manson, etc., all had some kind of "mental illness" too. "Mental illness" is not the same, from a legal standpoint, as "mental insanity", which a person does not know what they are doing. 

Skank knew exactly what she was doing when she premeditated her brutal slaughter of Travis Alexander; when she butchered him to death & slit his throat, and shot him in the head; and, when she ran to sex Ryan Burns within hours of her savage murder. Skank worked; she sexed men; she travelled; etc. ... In other words, she was not incapacitated or incapable of knowing right from wrong.. i.e. she was very capable of making decisions and she clearly understood right from wrong. She simply chose to do wrong. 

When a person suffers from "mental insanity", e.g. schizophrenia, then they do not know right from wrong, and they do not know what they are doing. Skank is not "mentally insane", from a legal perspective, nor from a psychological standpoint either. Therefore, Juan Martinez will be able to explain why she deserves the Death Penalty:-- i.e. that she is a remorseless killer who had a choice, but did not have any respect for the life of her victim, and furthermore, that society has the right to impose the maximum penalty upon her due to the cruelty of her murder. 

However, saying all that, the fault lie not with "mental illness"-- but instead, with a judge, JSS, who is incompetent, biased, and corrupt, imo, and who has rigged the sentencing phase in order for Skank to avoid the DP. JSS has allowed JA & Co. to run-amok, whilst hamstringing Juan Martinez. JA & Co. will drag out their cross-examination of Dr. Janeen DeMarte, in order to trash her, although decent judges do not allow filibustering because it is unethical & disruptive, and instead, comptent judges order the attorney to move on when they have made their point. Juan Martinez warned JSS that she was allowing JA & Co. to retry the guilt phase (which is illegal, by the way), whilst simultaneously restricting him to a mitigation rules. 

The double-standard here is appalling and unacceptable, imo. JA & Co. have not been restricted to a mitigation case, as per the law:-- but instead have been permitted to violate the law at every turn with trashing of the victim; fabricating a bogus "Porn Gate" to cast suspicion upon the State's Prosecutor, Juan Martinez; manufactuing false "affidavits"; illegally allowing the Skank to testify in "secret" in violation of the US Constitution; and, attaching herself to the "Omnibus Hearing". 

Thankfully, Juan Martinez is trying to get as much on the trial record, for the sake of future appeals, but this judge's bias towards the convicted murderer makes a mockery of our justice system.

Edie Morse Back in mid-December 2014, Jeff Gold posed an interesting question when he asked:-- "Is Jodi Arias a "human"? That's a profound question that he poses because Jodi Arias is a "homo sapien", by definition. She is not humane, however. Is she "human"? What does it mean to be "human"? Is every individual who would be classified as a "homo sapien" considered to be "human"? Or, would your definition of "human" include qualities that would require being civilized too? Ted Bundy was a "human", if "human" means a "homo sapien". So was Jeffrey Dahmer. And, Charles Manson too.

The US Supreme Court has upheld the right of states to decide whether or not to sentence a citizen (i.e. a "human") to the DP. Ergo, imo, it is necessary to define what qualities that a "human" has which would render them qualified to be sentenced to the DP or to obtain mercy. According to AZ law, the DP may be found by a jury, in the event that the premeditated murder was found to include one or more aggravating factors. In this case, the aggravating factor of "cruelty" was found by the last jury, because the victim suffered agony & torment. By law, JA is eligible for the DP. But, should a jury find for the maximum penalty? What qualities would a human being need to possess to consider them to be worth sparing? Here are my thoughts:-- 

1.) No longer a danger to others - Jodi Arias has failed to demonstrate this quality. After she brutally slaughtered Travis Alexander, and before she was arrested, she had told her father that she was going to flee. The police found amongst her personal affects, in her car, a gun & knives. She has gotten into fights with at least one other inmate, while in Estrella jail, and is considered to be a flight risk. She has threatened the life of the prosecutor, Juan Martinez, in the event that she gets the DP. She represents a danger to those who do not pander to her whims, should she be released, and in my opinion, she would even do harm to weaker, more vulnerable inmates in Perryville prison, if and when she is ever allowed into the general prison population; 

2.) Mercy to others - Jodi Arias tortured & abused animals. She beat her own brother's head with a baseball bat. She kicked her own mother. She has name-called her own sister derogatory terms, including "dumb" and "stupid". She has taunted the Alexander family by using their brother's name as a tool to sell her worthless junk-"art". She has maligned the victim with malicious lies. She has insulted the prosecutor and the police. She is vicious when she does not get her way. With the victim, Travis Alexander, she would not take "No" for an answer and leave him alone, and when she started stabbing him on June 4th, 2008, she did not stop, at any time, although he was in agony & suffering. She has no quality of mercy whatsoever. No one has ever come forward to claim that she was kind or helped anybody in need, ever; .

3.) Respect for the law & for the rights of other people - Jodi Arias has no respect for any regulations which would keep her from doing what she wants, when she wants, and without reference to the harm that she inflicts upon other human beings. We are a country that has a "love-hate" relationship with the law. We admire "outlaws" who fight against unjust laws. Murder, however, is not an unjust law:-- neither is stalking; theft; harrassment; hacking into another person's social media and/or bank account; etc. Yet, when a psychopath like Jodi Arias considers that her violations of laws makes her a "hero", because she claims that she must follow her own "voice" (which even recently, she said in a "tweet" on Twitter:-- "Sometimes, you have to break the rules around you in order to keep the rules within you"... She hasn't learnt a thing!), this demonstrates that she respects no boundaries. She has no respect for the rights of others. No civilized society can exist without laws to regulation human interaction. Jodi Arias does not accept any regulation upon her behaviour, and as such, she wantonly destroyed the life of another human being, Travis Alexander. In our society, murder is a crime-- otherwise, the strong could slaughter the weak, with impunity, in order to achieve their nefarious aims:-- e.g. steal their wealth; revenge for being rejected; and/or any other selfish purpose, that suits their whims. 

There are other human qualities too, that we could establish, which would be necessary to deem a person worthy of saving or not. Mitigating factors, under the law, include age, mental illness, parental sexual abuse, etc. -- but none of these apply to JA. At the age of 18 years old, men & women in this country are sent to die in war. She was 27 years old, which is well beyond the age of knowing right from wrong:-- and, moreover, the brain is fully developed by that age. She was not mentally ill, in that she was able to work as a waitress, travel; live with numerous men; etc.-- Jodi Arias was not mentally incapacitated from making decisions. She just made disastrous decisions, and she must be held accountable for her decisions which are harmful to other people, including the worst crime that a person can inflict upon another:-- exterminating them. Jodi Arias' parents have not been shown to have sexually molested her:-- i.e. there are no police reports, no school reports, no medical reports, no neighbors or family corroboration, etc. Without some semblance of proof, however small, such allegations are not truthful; they are simply self-serving. 

In other words, Jodi Arias has shown no "human" qualities that would render her worth saving, imo. In fact, she is as scary and destructive as was Ted Bundy, and furthermore, she would have become a serial-killer, imo, because she is so very arrogant in her self-aggrandizement that she thought that "No Jury Will Convict Me". She told Travis Alexander on her illegally-recorded blackmail "sex-tape" that she loved it when he treated her like a Goddess. Recall Ted Bundy's words:-- “Murder is not about lust and it's not about violence. It's about possession. When you feel the last breath of life coming out of the woman, you look into her eyes. At the point, it's being God.” ... Perhaps, it's not whether or not that Jodi Arias is "human" which is the real question at this point. Maybe, the question ought to be asked as to whether or not that we can forgive a brutal butcher who demands to be "God".

Edie Morse It's one thing to "break the rules" for the sake of the betterment of mankind. By contrast, for Skank, it's all about violating any and all rules of decency, as well as the rule of law, in order to inflict misery upon others, whilst satiating her own sordid & squalid impulses for immediate gratification. She hasn't learnt a thing-- and is more narcissistic than ever! Ergo, this is Skank's depraved ethos:--

DAY 31 “BALLET OF A PSYCHO-KILLER” by Paul Sanders The 13th Juror MD

The Jodi Arias Death Penalty Retrial: A Juror’s Perspective
by The 13th Juror MD
DAY 31
“BALLET OF A PSYCHO-KILLER”
I remember the first time I saw Dr. Janine DeMarte and it took me an hour and a half to realize it was the second time I was seeing her. She walked to the stand wearing a black business skirt suit with a soft blue blouse and stood a little taller than average in her high heeled shoes. She appeared in phase one and phase three of the death penalty trial of Marissa DeVault and the brutal killing of her husband, Dale Harrell.
I had seen her when the first Jodi Arias trial was televised back in 2013.
It was from the jury box that I got to know her even though I had never met her. She was to the guys on the jury what Sy Ray, a detective for the Gilbert, Az Police Department, was to the ladies on our jury. Like Cy Ray, she is a good looking human being. She seems young upon first sight similar to someone you might see going through the process of law school. She carries a natural beauty accentuated by a scholarly demeanor.
We learned on that jury that she had received her Doctorate from Michigan State University in Clinical Psychology, had completed an extensive amount of training and research in domestic violence, antisocial behavior and criminology. Her resume was supplemented by field experience in forensic psychology, sex crimes and psychological disorders. In our case, it took her one day on the witness stand, being questioned by Eric Basta, prosecutor for the justice of Dale Harrell, to untangle the defense psychological experts of Dr. Carp, Dr. King and Dr. Conte.
I can comfortably say that jurors will have a love affair with her testimonial counter to Dr. Fonseca and Dr. Geffner.
Juan Martinez presented her and I saw the jury note takers busy. He was able to extract the same history of her experience as expertly as Eric Basta did, with fluidity, and quickly.
“Have you ever been called a hired gun?” Juan Martinez asked.
“No,” DeMarte answered. She sat at attention in the witness chair with her head arched forward when speaking into the desktop microphone.
“Has any Judge ever said that you lacked credibility?”
“No.”
“Have you ever been found to have committed any unethical behavior?” Juan asked. He was using the back door to go after Dr. Geffner’s long string of court rulings and legal machinations after some of his testimonials.
“No, I haven’t,” Dr. DeMarte answered.
“When did you first interview Arias?” he asked. The jury was used to Juan Martinez and his complete lack of pleasantries with any witness. He only referred to the defendant as either, simply ‘Arias’ or ‘the defendant’.
“July of 2011,” DeMarte answered.
“For what purpose?”
“I was to do an evaluation for psychological disorders.”
“How many times did you speak with the defendant?”
“I spoke with her four times for four hours and totaled about seventeen hours with her,” she answered without referencing any notes.
“Did you give her just psychological tests?” Juan asked as he paced a couple steps.
“No. We gave her a reading test, as well.”
“Why would you do that?” Juan questioned.
“It is important in understanding a person for validating any test results. We need to understand the mental acuity of a person which ties directly to understanding the psychology of that person to make a proper assessment,” she explained.
“What did you find?”
“She scored at a high level,” DeMarte answered. She quickly opened a file from in front of her and read, “12.9, almost at the highest level.”
I looked toward Arias who sits in front of me about twenty feet away. I can only see her back and it did not look like she was interested in a word DeMarte had to say as she whispered to her other defense attorney, Jennifer Willmott, during testimony. In my times of stealing glances, she consistently ignores Juan Martinez when he is on stage. It crossed my mind that she surely would not like this psychologist.
“Any other tests?” Juan asked.
DeMarte opened another manila file and answered, “The Wexler Intelligence Scale. We spent one point five hours on this examination.”
“What were the results?”
“Scoring suggests a high intelligence.”
Juan Martinez walked to the prosecution table and picked up a sheet of paper with a bright green, Post-It sticking off the edge. He walked across to the left of Judge Stevens and handed the judicial assistant the exhibit which she promptly reproduced. He made his way to the defense table, handed the Exhibit over while saying, “Move to enter Exhibit Number 863.”
Dr. DeMarte waited patiently while Juan made his way to her and handed her the Exhibit. She took it and studied it for a second and set it in front of her.
“Have you disclosed these results to both the female psychologist as well as Dr. Samuels?” he asked. We had heard the reference to the female psychologist before and I believe she wanted her name kept secret. I suppose that was something we were all used to in this retrial.
“Yes,” she answered.
Juan walked to a projector and put the test results of the WIS that showed on various screens throughout the courtroom. DeMarte proficiently and detail explained each category of the exam while highlighting the categories that Arias did well in. These categories included a full scale IQ, perceptual reasoning, verbal comprehension, processing speed and a general ability category. In three categories, she scored far above average.
“What other tests did you perform?” Juan queried.
“We administered the Trauma Symptom Inventory (TSI) on August 11, 2011.”
“Is there anything significant about that test where validation would be required?”
“Yes,” DeMarte answered. “This test is a self-reporting test and can be flawed by malingering.”
“What does that mean?” Juan asked.
“Since a person self-reports incidents that might be psychologically significant, there is always a possibility that answers can be falsified. We use the term, malingering. There are tests to check for that,” she explained.
“Are you also familiar with the PDS test?”
“Yes.”
Juan started pacing as his questions accelerated. Jurors took notes as he progressed in his dance to get information from Dr. DeMarte. “How is this different from the TSI test?”
Dr. DeMarte looked toward the jury as if teaching them. One might say it is a crash course in psychology. She had the ability to quickly clarify her thoughts so the jury would easily understand.
“The PDS test identifies Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome and the significant event that caused the syndrome. It is fairly specific to that event. It considers primarily the emotion a victim feels at the time of the event. The event never changes and neither does the emotion felt at the time so we call this a static event and it is a marker in a validity scale,” she explained.
The jurors looked interested.
She continued. “We also look at the results of the TSI and it considers a number of variables and is more broad in its assessment. It deals with emotional responses, intrusive experiences, anxiety and has a depressive component also.”
“What is the MMPI?” Juan Martinez asked. He looked focused as he paced in short , purposeful steps.
“The Minnesota Multi-Phasic Inventory is the most common of examinations and we used the second and newer version. It tests personality traits and attempts to identify psychological disorders,” she answered.
“Any other tests?” he asked.
“No.”
“Explain to me what happens then. You have a number of tests that you check against validity scales. You verify they are accurate to the best of your knowledge, and then what?”
DeMarte explained that they then take a combination of a person’s history, test results and interviews and then draw specific conclusions.
Juan stopped pacing and faced the Doctor. “Do you want to tell us what the conclusions were?”
Dr. DeMarte opened another folder and read the result into the microphone. “She has a Borderline Personality Disorder and a Psychological Adjustment Disorder.”
“Can you explain that?” Juan Martinez asked.
“Yes,” she said looking toward the jury. “Basically, it shows the presence of a negative psychological symptom which usually arises from a significant change in someone’s life.”
“So you’re saying it is a trauma?”
“Yes.”
“Could this trauma be from jail?” Juan Martinez asked as he started pacing again.
“It could be,” she answered.
“Could it be from a medical condition?”
“It could, although I did not see that in this instance.”
“Is this a mental illness?”
Dr. DeMarte hesitated. “It could be but generally this is a psychological disorder.”
“What of this Borderline Personality Disorder?”
“It would be a psychological disorder,” she answered confidently.
I was familiar with what happened next as I had seen Eric Basta and Dr. DeMarte do a dance in two phases of the DeVault trial. I learned from her in the first phase and witnessed the destruction of the defense team’s psychologists in a mere flash of a couple of hours. She stood solidly in facts and documentation. She paid attention to detail and juries really like that. When I heard, moments before, that she was to reappear in the death penalty phase of our trial, I was excited as every juror was. We had really taken to her in the first phase of premeditation. The third phase was going to be a blueprint of the first phase in DeVault and, somehow, I nicknamed her the “Psycho-Killer”.
A ballet began with Juan Martinez pacing the floor and leading Dr. DeMarte through a quagmire of test results and their importance to each other. She not only verified the prior examinations of Dr. Samuels and the female psychologists against her own, she checked the validity of answers against each examination taken. They revealed a concerto of malingering with inconsistent answers between tests and wildly swung emotions spoken when asked about the static event of Travis Alexander’s murder.
In one case, Arias stated it was a very emotional at the time of the event yet when asked the same question on another test, she recalled having very little emotion. Her answers were especially inconsistent with anything regarding Post Traumatic Syndrome Assessments.
Juan Martinez swayed into his prior questioning of Dr. Geffner and his realization that his results were problematic because Arias had lied on a significant question. She had carried the Ninja story into many of these examinations and given it was not true, so too followed that any diagnosis would be based on false information and rendered useless. Juan danced right down the hallway of malingering and a missed validity scale to leave the testimony of Dr. Geffner and the female psychologist as nothing but fodder in a field.
“Can you give me another example of an inconsistency that draws your attention?” Juan asked.
“Arias told Dr. Geffner that in April of 2008, Travis Alexander had choked her. She said he was in a rage and attacked her while getting on top of her. She was in fear for her life. She tried to scratch him and then stopped because she said she did not want to hurt him,” she explained.
Juan nodded as if to say that she could continue. His hands were clasped behind his back.
“Her life was in danger,” DeMarte stated. “That is an atypical response in that scenario. It is more than unlikely it could have happened that way.”
“What does that mean to you, doctor?” Juan asked.
“There are only three possible human responses if a person’s life is in danger. Fight, flight or freeze. It is not possible that someone, being choked and, in fear of their life, would stop in the middle of the attack to show empathy or protect the attacker. It is not only impossible, it is simply illogical,” she answered.
I could not tell if Arias looked her way but I am sure she could not have been pleased. She did not know it then but the bloodletting was about to begin.
The ballet would have been pleasant to watch except that it seemed like every question that the prosecutor would ask the witness, it was interrupted by Kirk Nurmi standing up and saying, “May we approach?” A five minute sidebar would follow and the jury received their information one point at a time.
This is not an uncommon experience at this phase of the trial. We went through the process as a jury and we came to understand this tactic as a way to break the rhythm of the prosecution. For the note takers on our jury, and the seven on this jury, it gives each time to keep up with the evidence. There is a half full mentality to this because jurors did not fall off the bus yesterday. We see opportunities to acquire information and Dr. DeMarte was a Mt. Everest of it.
“Do you know who Amy Lance is?” Juan asked DeMarte.
“Yes,” she answered. “She grew up with Arias.”
“Move for admission of 872” Juan said as he walked to the judicial assistant. He had his copy made, gave it to the defense and faced DeMarte. “Will you read that for us?”
“It’s a statement from Jodi Arias cousin who states that when they would attend family functions, Arias was “snide, rude and sarcastic. She could be a total bitch,” the Doctor said as she put the exhibit down.
“Would you consider the defendant as lacking in self-esteem as the Doctors for the defense claim?” Juan asked as he stood in place.
“This is aggressive behavior,” Dr. DeMarte said flatly.
“Let’s look at number 880,” Juan continued as he went through his circle of communication by handing off copies to all parties involved. “The date of this is October 25, 2008 and it is a statement from Gary Brinkman, the owner of Purple Plum, a restaurant in Yreka, California. Do you see that and will you read it for us?”
“It says she worked there two times,” the Doctor began, “with the first time working as a busser. She worked there again and came on as a server. The owner says she ignored her guests in favor of giving males attention. She was very flirtatious with the good looking guys. Of special concern was when he witnessed a guest come into the restaurant and Jodi lied to him by saying she had just moved to town and would like a tour,” she finished.
“What does this tell you as a Clinical Psychologist?”
“The behavior is aggressive and does not demonstrate a lack of self-esteem,” she stated as she set the exhibit down.
Juan Martinez put a new exhibit up and it was a statement from Arias’ half-sister, Julie. She told a story of Arias leaving the memorial service for Travis Alexander and boarding a plane. She met a guy named Nick, exchanged phone numbers and called him the next day from her house.
The jury will not miss the callousness of her disregard of the victim as well as the family. The jury has heard of the two written letters to the family after the death of Travis and this will give them a window into the soul of Arias and the person sitting in the defendant’s chair. It is one of those thoughts that will not leave your head as a juror. Your job is to understand motivations and to decide a preponderance of evidence leaning one way or another. Much looked to favor Juan Martinez with his powerful partnership of the striking Dr. DeMarte.
Juan Martinez did not miss a beat after returning from lunch. The jury listened and took notes attentively as he proceeded to display example after example of Arias being assertive and aggressive with special attention to her sexual aggressiveness with men. He pointed to letters, statements, a sex tape and Arias’ own words from her journal as he began the attack she so richly deserved. For once, it was Travis Alexander standing in the room in the arms of DeMarte and Martinez.
“Did you find any mention of abuse by Travis Alexander?” Juan asked with emphasis in his voice.
“No,” Doctor DeMarte answered simply.
“Were you able to talk to anyone who could corroborate any physical violence to Arias?”
“No.”
“Tell me, Doctor,” Juan asked with a pause, “all allegations of abuse came from where?”
“Jodi Arias.”
“Is it important that there is no mention of domestic violence in any of her journals?”
“Yes,” DeMarte answered. She turned to the jury briefly. “A journal is a personal thing. She evidenced behaviors and documentations of the smallest of details. It would be inconsistent behavior that one would avoid putting incidents in a journal because those impacts are too big for one to ignore.”
“Did you find any medical records that show domestic violence injuries of any sort?” Juan Martinez asked passionately.
“No, I did not,” she stated.
“What of the test results from Dr. Samuels and the female psychologist? Did you find anything at all that would support the existence of domestic violence?”
“No.”
Juan paused, walked to his table and took a drink of water. He turned around and asked her, “Was there any corroboration or lack of corroboration to the defendant’s argument of domestic violence?”
Dr. DeMarte did not pause when she answered, “A surprising lack of corroboration.”
Jurors love evidence they can see, touch and feel. Reasonable jurors will take most of her testimony in the deliberation room one day and they will find that it will remain standing against two other psychologists because it felt like something they could see, touch and feel.
In their acceptance of her statements, they will recognize the victim. They are continuing to realize that Travis Alexander never had a chance. There are one hundred and fifty two pictures rolling around in in their heads of the horrific death of the victim. For every day that Juan Martinez is up, it feels like Travis Alexander is in the room. It is his turn to speak and Dr. DeMarte carried a loud and convincing voice.
The jury was excused for the day. They do not know that Jodi Arias has decided not to continue her testimony on the stand. They are still waiting for her.
It turns out that they had three questions in the basket regarding her testimony last Halloween. The questions have been dormant for months. Judge Stevens directed outside the presence of the jury that those three questions had to be presented in open court.
Kirk Nurmi and Jennifer Willmott needed time. It was beginning to look like time was going to quickly become a precious commodity for Arias.
Three questions waiting for the defendant.
What could they be?

DAY 32 : "A Juror's Perspective" By Paul Sanders

DAY 32 : "A Juror's Perspective" By Paul Sanders

There are few days in the Jodi Arias death penalty retrial that can compare to the second day of the retrial. The jury was presented one hundred and fifty-two pieces of evidence, most of them in photographic images. No juror on this panel will ever forget the magnitude of that day. Each juror’s soul was tattoo’d with the image of the victim, Travis Alexander. No day has compared to the power of that day since.
Until today.

Juan Martinez was dressed in a charcoal gray suit with a yellow shirt and a silk gold tie. He looked different than he normally did. He readied his papers on the prosecution table and turned around and nodded at the family of Travis Alexander seated in the front row. I saw his eyes scan the courtroom casually. He smiled at someone as they gave him a file. It was a pleasant smile. He seemed unusually calm as opposed to his normal brisk, and about business, behaviors. It was nice to see.

The lead Detective, Esteban Flores, had returned to the prosecution table despite the tragedy he and his family had suffered recently. The jury would not be aware of what it took for him to return to his seat in the search for justice in the case of Travis Alexander. Although no one approached him in the courtroom, we had immense respect for his presence and strength.

Dr. Janeen DeMarte sat in the witness chair wearing a conservative light gray business skirt suit complimented with a beige blouse. She set a briefcase at her feet and put some manila folders in place on the desk in front of her. She adjusted the microphone.

The jury was led in moments later and I believe all were content to see another day of Dr. DeMarte. The jury likes her in compliment with Juan Martinez because the information flow keeps them busy. It is odd to them that Dr. Fonseca spoke of thirty cases of evidence she had to research, while Dr. Geffner made a point to say he had researched sixteen thousand pages of documentation. Dr. DeMarte was not about pounds of paper but rather the weight of evidence.

Sixteen people in the jury box know that Arias premeditated the murder of Travis Alexander. They are clearly aware of the death qualifying heinous nature of the crime. Before they can get to a determination of whether Jodi Arias lives or dies, the penalty phase, they have to understand why she did it. It is human nature to want to know why it was done. It is more critical for each juror to understand because the decision they make will impact their soul the rest of their lives. We had a juror on the Marissa DeVault hammer killing trial who insisted that “she just wanted to sleep at night” with whatever decision we made. It is the same with this jury of sixteen reasonable people.

“We were discussing this when we left off yesterday,” Juan began as he walked casually toward the center of the area between DeMarte and the jury, “that you did not find any evidence of domestic violence between Travis Alexander and Arias. Will you explain, as a Clinical Psychologist, why you believe that?”

Dr. Janeen DeMarte looked toward the jury. “The information of domestic violence only comes from the defendant. No one has corroborated that it existed. Secondly, the testing documentation shows too many inconsistencies. She had four dates that she claims abuse happened but the incidents are documented as different dates. Thirdly, the reasoning and content behind the incidents has inconsistent stories. For example, the night she allegedly broke her finger, she claims it was the result of losing her job yet reports to another psychologist that it was the result of money issues. Finally, none of Travis Alexander’s relationships with anyone showed any sign of domestic violence,” she explained. She was a fast talker and I saw most of the jurors taking notes.

“How about domestic violence when Arias was growing up? Any evidence of that?” Juan Martinez asked.

“I found no evidence of it. Arias reports that she was never exposed to domestic violence when growing up.”

“Reported this how?” Juan asked.

“It was a, ‘Pattern Changing Program Confidence Situational Test’, which looks to identify the existence of domestic violence,” DeMarte explained. “When asked, she answered that she was not exposed to domestic violence in the household. She also stated there was no physical or sexual abuse.”
Juan nodded his head. He turned around and walked a couple steps toward the jury without looking at them. It was as if he was thinking out loud. “You did speak with her on substance abuse in the family while she was growing up. Was there any indication, clinically or by test, which reported her father using cocaine?”

“No.”

“What of her mother using Marijuana during pregnancy?”

“Jodi Arias never mentioned it in any of her examinations and denied that her mother used Marijuana,” Dr. DeMarte stated.

Juan Martinez began his cycle of communication by stating an exhibit number, walking to Judge Stephen’s assistant, having it replicated, walking to the defense table and handing a copy to them and then ensured the Doctor had one in her hand. The dance began as he effortlessly, despite the defense team’s consistent objections, presented his case. He began with number 885 and did not stop until he reached 915 additionally supported by exhibits already entered into the system.

Jodi Arias was quoted as saying through Dr. Samuels, “My partner never sexually or physically abused me.” This item was dated December 16, 2009.
Her childhood friend, Zanya Corronzo stated, “There was no abuse in her household and no abuse from her family. Jodi can play a victim.” Zanya further states, “She changes her personality with different people.”

“Aimee knows of no sexual or physical abuse by the parents with Jodi Arias or any other siblings. The kids were always spoiled,” her cousin, Aimee Lance says.

Dr. DeMarte usually read the quoted text while Juan would prepare the next nail in the coffin. I could tell that Arias could not stand Dr. DeMarte on the stand. With no offense to the Doctor, some might say they the witness and defendant are similar in appearance if you were to glance from afar. Usually, when Juan Martinez was interviewing a witness, Arias was content not to look toward him. This was certainly opposite when her team was presenting on the floor. What I found more curious, as the jury will duly note, was that she spent the day whispering silently into her State Appointed Mitigating Specialist, Maria de la Rosa.

The jury can draw nothing from this except that it shows her great distaste for the prosecution team. It also emphasizes, subliminally, that she has not taken ownership of the crime. It further shows a complete lack of remorse. These behavioral changes are noticed by the jury. Jurors notice everything.
“Describe a Borderline Personality Disorder for us, would you?” Juan Martinez asked.

The Doctor turned in her chair and faced the jury. “The disorder is all about a fear of abandonment. The traits of this disorder are maladaptive and cause general instability in all of their relationships. They tend to draw people close to them. They demonstrate the odd characteristic of suddenly pushing people away. It is further accentuated by the fact that a person with this disorder has no concept of who they are as individuals. They need their relationships. They demonstrate extremely intrusive behaviors. These behaviors destroy their relationships and it is a repeated cycle.”

Dr. DeMarte read from the exhibit Juan handed her. In regards to a text message between Travis Alexander and Michelle Lawry, we learn that Arias and Travis Alexander had been broken up for a year. Michelle had been used as a spy by Arias to learn about the activities of both Lisa Andrews and Mimi Hall. She had fed information to Arias without realizing the position she was in. Travis and Michelle were flirting with each other online and the topic of Arias came up. Travis said, if he pushed her away, she came back into his life crying. If he stayed with her, his life was miserable. Michelle thought it sounded abnormal.

“She swears she didn’t slash my tires but she watched me make out with Lisa two times,” he says to her. The jury is writing everything they can down. Oftentimes, they were saved to more accurate notes because of the interruptions by Kirk Nurmi saying, “May we approach, your Honor?” It gave each note-taker time to catch up in their evidence documentation while the attorneys and Judge had a bench conference.

“One incident references that Travis Alexander was upstairs in his house with Lisa Andrews. The lights suddenly went out,” DeMarte explains. “Travis went downstairs to investigate and he turned the circuit breakers back on. He did not admit until later to Lisa that he discovered Arias downstairs. This happened shortly before he died.”

DeMarte visually drew a picture of Arias going into an unrelenting and serious pursuit of Travis Alexander by quickly adopting Mormonism in an effort to be closer to Travis. She would make a point of reading a bible at inappropriate times while making Travis aware that she was reading a bible. She would appear unannounced and call at late hours of the night.

“A diamond ring disappeared out of the top drawer of Travis Alexander’s desk. He knew it had been stolen. Finally, via text, he confronted Arias as to its whereabouts and she answered offhandedly that she had it and not to worry about it. She would discuss it with him later,” the Doctor explained to the jury while the exhibit was displayed on the projection screen in front of them. “This is intrusive behavior typical of having a Borderline Personality Disorder.”

“Did you speak with Skye Hughes on intrusive behaviors?” Juan asked, showing no reaction when the defense team objected.

The story unveiled visits by Travis Alexander to the Hughes with Jodi Arias in tow. She witnessed Jodi Arias, on multiple occasions, waiting outside the bathroom door for Travis when he needed to use it. Another time, Arias was caught waiting outside the bedroom door when he was having a private conversation with the Hughes. Skye remembered a time when Travis was speaking with Deanna in a closed room and Arias was caught again, listening outside the door.

“This would not be the first time that Arias would demonstrate intrusive behaviors,” DeMarte stated as she and Juan Martinez walked into the past of other boyfriends.

Darryl Brewer became afraid that Arias was too closely involved with him. He tried to break up because his priority was his son and Arias did not take well to it by crying and repeatedly calling him to initiate a new relationship. He found her to be clingy, needy and whiny.

The story of Matt McCartney was especially disturbing. Her ex-boyfriend moved to Crater Lake, two hours away because he needed space from Arias. He had attempted to break up with her before but she would always manage her way back into his life with repeated phone calls and unannounced appearances. He tried to break it off softly by halting sexual relations with her thinking it would create distance. She cried a lot.

He was living in Crater Lake and had just began dating a girl named Bianca. He went out of town one weekend and Arias had driven to Crater Lake, a two hour drive, to confront Bianca. This greatly bothered Matt because Arias and he were not dating. The thing that bothered him more was finding her sleeping in his bed when he returned. She had let herself in.

Juan Martinez walked to the prosecution table, took a sip of water from a Styro-Foam cup and returned to his spot in front of Dr. DeMarte. “Ma’am, we’ve been talking about fear of abandonment as part of this Borderline Personality Disorder. What else might we see?”

“People with this disorder begin their relationships by idealizing their partner. They put them on a pedestal and move quickly to the talk of marriage. It is a fast and strong attachment,” the Doctor explains to the jury. “Because they do not have a grasp who they are individually, they make up for it by suddenly turning against their partner. They devalue the relationship and feel everything their partner does is bad.”

“For example?” Juan Martinez prodded.

“For instance, she begins her relationship with Travis Alexander by adopting everything in his life and making it her own. She was like a Chameleon in that she would physically and psychologically change to please him, blending into his surroundings,” Dr, DeMarte said.

“Excuse me,” Judge Stephens interrupted. She looked at Dr. DeMarte. “We need you to slow down. The Court Reporter can’t keep up.”

Dr. DeMarte blushed and I am sure the note-takers on the jury were happy. She continued. “She then devalues Travis Alexander by murdering him. She goes to his memorial service, drives by his house, and afterwards, she gets a phone number from Nick on the airplane out of town and quickly attempts to schedule a date with him.”

The jury is taking notes and the atmosphere has a strong sense of creepiness in the room. Few jurors are looking at Arias. They only take more notes as the nails are pressed into a coffin.

“What of Ryan Burns?” Juan asked.

“Arias goes to Utah after the murder of Travis and finds comfort in the arms of Ryan Burns. She is able to quickly move on without showing any emotion after the murder. She devalues and separates from her relationship. Like a Chameleon, she is ready to settle into a new life with a new boyfriend.”

“Is there an anger issue involved in this?” Juan asked.

“Certainly,” DeMarte answers. “A trait of this disorder is that the person tends to keep anger inside. They rarely show hostility but when it comes out, it is often termed as seething and angry. They will then rationalize their behavior by moving the fault to the other person in the relationship. “

Juan gives Dr. DeMarte Exhibit 623. DeMarte reads it to the jury. “Arias claims, ‘I found out my anger was very destructive. I kicked holes in walls, broke down doors and smashed windows. It hurts people and it hurts me.’

“Are there suicidal tendencies?” Juan Martinez asked.

“Absolutely,” DeMarte confirms. “In a text message with Regan Housley, Travis Alexander speaks of Arias and her constant crying. She seems to go wildly up and down in moods and it is frustrating for him. He is afraid she is going to commit suicide.”

“Why would she want to do that?” Juan Martinez asked.

“She has an emptiness inside that Travis nor any boyfriend can fill,” DeMarte states. “She lacks an understanding of herself and is not comfortable in her own skin. She threatens suicide on many occasions. In one case, she tells Detective Flores in an interview that she tried to overdose on Advil because it is an anti-coagulant. She wraps herself in blankets so that her blood does not drip on her cellmate from the top bunk. She makes a soft-hearted attempt by making a small cut on her wrist but the pain is severe, like a paper cut to her.”

The topic of PTSD was discussed between Juan Martinez and Dr. DeMarte in front of the jury. Dr. DeMarte was able to clarify it by having the jurors imagine having a horrific car accident. A person suffering from PTSD would do everything they could to stay away from a car. It would be in their lives daily, this memory and fear coordinating every move. It would also manifest itself in a victim’s dreams. It would resurface over an extended period of time through nightmares. PTSD did not exist for Arias.

Jodi Arias never spoke or wrote of a nightmare.

All victims of PTSD will suffer nightmares of the incident, repeating itself over and over again in their subconscious.

“Do you recognize the statements in Exhibit Number 913?” Juan Martinez casually asked.

Dr. DeMarte looked at the sheet of paper in her hand. She nodded her head. “I do.”

“Will you explain it for us?” the prosecutor asked. He had his arms crossed and was looking toward the floor.

“In an interview with 48 Hours, the subject of suicide was approached,” she said. She then read the interviewers notes from the exhibit. “It was brought up that you said no jury would convict you. Why would you say that?” Dr. DeMarte paused to cough. “She answered, “Because I wouldn’t be here when I committed suicide because I planned to be dead.”

I can only imagine what the jury thought. They would not like it one bit and I am sure more than one juror felt this was Arias putting a challenge in their face. It was a challenge laid years ago, and this was the jury she was referring to.

Kirk Nurmi turned down the opportunity to spend the last hour cross examining Dr. DeMarte and I am not sure that this was strategically the best idea. The jurors went home with the taste of DeMarte and Juan Martinez in their mouths. In their minds, a new picture of Travis Alexander had emerged and it was not filled with blood.

The visual they walked away with at the end of the day was a kind man who allowed Arias to over step her boundaries too many times. He did not see coming what the jury now knew. He was a victim in the strictest sense of the term because there is no way he could have known a person was capable of going as far as she did to, with premeditation, slaughter him.

They noticed her in the defendant’s chair as she whispered disrespectfully to her mitigation specialist throughout the day. They will notice that she is showing no sign of remorse. Each juror can see that she has not taken ownership of the crime. It will be difficult not to show great distaste for her and what she had done.

The pictures of the death of Travis Alexander were disturbing. The mental picture of Arias exposed naked in the eyes of psychology were frightening. It is the stuff of nightmares.

It is quite the telling to truth of her lack of ever having a nightmare after such a horrific event.

Each juror is waiting for her to get back on the stand to finish her testimony. They do not know that she will not be back.

Travis Alexander’s fatal mistake was being too nice in allowing Jodi Arias back in his life. Jodi Arias’ fatal mistake was deciding not to get back on the stand to take ownership of her crime.

It was a great day for truth and a great day for the spirit of Travis Alexander. He was in the courtroom throughout the day and he was in the eyes of his family who sits in the front row.

Travis Alexander now lives in the heart of each juror because life was breathed into him with the testimony of Dr. DeMarte.

The jury does not know that the woman that Arias spent so many hours whispering in her ear, would be the same woman that will one day accompany her to the death chamber.

It was a great day for Travis Alexander and his family….
