Ok, now....I want you all to know just how far this case has made me fall.....I am watching Nancy Grace FGS!
As I relisten to Jodi testifying, I am struck by her vast vocabulary. If nothing else, she is very well spoken. But now comes a random thought. Does she use "$10.00 words" when a 10 cent word will suffice in an attempt to confuse the jury? How many people do you know that routinely use, or even know the definition, of the word 'edify"? Just a thought. Her word usage has begun to fascinate me. Man, I am a mess

I was thinking the very same thing. There are plenty of short cut words to make the same point she is trying to make. She seems to be finding sentences for words just to throw out there.

She is also avoiding answers the same way she did with Martinez.

I loved it when she was suddenly getting back a memory of running after the shot was fired but Nurmi objected by saying that she had memory lapse or something of that nature so she has no way of telling. Nurmi couldn't let her get out a sudden memory of that day.

I see the questions going in the direction of a guilty verdict of murder one. The jury doesn't seem to be buying the memory loss.

And that lame excuse of saying that even an empty gun would stop someone from coming at you, is she for real? If Travis knew his gun was unloaded and she thought it was unloaded she would never have pulled that gun bottom line. If anything would get someone killed is pulling an empty gun that the person whom you are pulling it on is aware of.

The jury seems to be catching her out there more than Martinez was able to do.

Giz, I agree with everything you said. I head something yesterday that whoever I heard it from, seemed to find it significant.

It was the bit about Travis yelling "I'll kill you"
Apparently it was thought Travis said it before she shot him, but yesterday she said it was after she shot him.
I question him saying anything after she put a bullet into his head.

I feel like the jury picked up on JA' attitude when Juan was doing his cross and a lot of their questions started pouring in from there. I love the questions they are asking! I can't wait to hear what they are going to ask today!

The part where JA say's TA was on his hands & knees says he couldn't feel his legs make's me think the stab wounds to his back may have harmed his spinal cord. So if that is the case how would she remember that but not any of the butchering.

Because it's all lies. She has a way of telling a detailed story mixed with some truth and lies. She tells stories with details expecting the story to sound more real. One poster said it earlier (don't remember who) that she is scary. She is scary, this is one scary person that if set free there is no doubt in my mind that she would do something like this again. She has no remorse of killing Travis, her remorse is getting caught. She has to try everything in the books to try and get off this murder charge. If she is found guilty, in her mind, Travis won the battle.

This woman should not be walking the streets.

When JA was answering the question about the gun, and she said she didnt know what happened to it after it fired, but it must of fell on the floor because it was no longer in her hand, and then she starts in on how she was trying to get away because TA was saying he was going to "Kill Her". Has anyone else thought that if that scenario were true, wouldnt TA have picked up the gun and shot her? Just a thought....

Meeeeee to.

Glad to have you join us! You bring up a good point. IMO, Travis had a bullet in his head at that point per Jodi...so I doubt he said or did anything. Jodi is a big ole liarhead!

Many of us will be in live chat (scroll to the bottom on the home page, click log in and there you are) while we watch the live stream. We would love to have you join us!

Hubby just came in...looked at the clock and said "Isn't it time for you to make coffee, go to the bathroom, smoke a cigarette, get your blankie and zone out to Jodi? I am going to take a nap!"

He knows me so well....

Beth Karas just said that there's no such word as de-edify; it's dis-edify. Ha!

Who is, chicken ... You or he?

Hey.....if you go into Walmart and buy something using your credit card/bank card....when you return it, they do not give you cash back...they credit the card you used! Right?

Why him of course!

Chicken .. not always .. - i had MANY instances when bought something at places (Walmart including) .. and when return it (or did partial return) .. they gave me Cash ... it can happen, in some cases, even though more often they will credit your credit card...

Especially if they are in a hurry .. or might need smoe authorization for Credit Card transaction or don't know how to do credit card return (not too experienced workers) . .etc..

But i definitely had instances when bought on credit card .. but was given Cash back..

even joked to someone later on .. "that when i used the card to buy .. i made my cash back percentage from purchase.. but when was given money back in cash - it means i still made my cash back % from credit card purchase, without them subtracting it from me now.

LOL ..

Good to know DM.....I don't ever remember returning anything and getting cash back if I used my bankcard.

btw, good job today

Thanks CN :)

Re "cash back" ... I am in Canada though .. so don't know (how it's in US there), LOL

but would think it's possible .. - it's preferred to give credit on credit card ... but it can happen when they can give you cash .. i would assume in US also

You have got to scroll down and look at the pics of Jodi and Vinnies comments....especially the "Look Jodi not lying" and the "No Walmart receipt" ones....they are priceless.....I laughed my ass off.
Best comments of the whole day!!!

I specifically studied that receipt when he showed it; she paid cash for the gas can; it wasn't charged to a credit card. But, yes, you're right; if you charge something and return it, they have to credit your card. I've even asked for cash back, and was told repeatedly that they can't do that (maybe it is different in Canada, DM).

LOL...

It's over (i just finished watching it) .. Judge said .. no court Friday.. no Monday .. no Tuesday .. they are back on 13th .. Wednsday i guess..

Jane Velez is on now .. - Some experts are saying, as always, -- defense did better, others saying prosecutors did better .. etc..

Personally i didn't see anything special in Martinez questioning .. - she replied to him "cash" (re: gas) .. and replied to him about "injuried finger at work" as well..

Jane Velez: "More than 200 questions so far .. some of them sarcastic" ... "Breaking NEWS", she goes: "They just been informed that Juries might have MORE QUESTIONS for her, when it continues" ..... hehehe....

CP .. in most cases they do NOT .. It's common practice to return back on Credit Card (just as was purchased) .. but can happen that the Cash is given back .. rather than Credit Card credit..
I would assume .. in USA also..

As you saw .. in court today .. when he asked her about it ... and she said "I got Cash back".. He simply replied: "Ah! .. So you are saying you got Cash back..."

... and then he simply moved on ...

So i didn't find it to be such a big deal anyhow.. not going to be one of main factors determining if she lives or dies.. IMO, anyhow :)

Fortunatel Walmart has a perpetual inventory system that automatically keeps track of sales and returns to keep their inventory going without having to constantly "order" merchandise. So no matter if your sale/return is cash or credit they can pull up exactly what's happened in their inventory that day. This is also the way they keep up with their "shortages" or thefts. They were one of the first corporations to implement scanning and UPC's.

Hmmm, ok, I was being dense then. Somehow I got the idea that she used a credit card/bank card for the Walmart purchase.
So my above point about the refund is totally unimportant...

I need to sleep apparently....I have made and more importantly, admitted to, so many mistakes today. I never do that
I must be delirious from lack of sleep....certainly not food!
