We have seen and watched JA long enough to know she revels in inflicting pain on others. She does it with purpose each and every time. It shows how cold and calculating she is.
That is why as an afterthought she threw the abuse into the mix and the false pedophilia claim. She was strategizing on how to hurt the victim and his family the most. She means to hurt everyone she hurts. No one gets away from the wrath of a sociopath. They are always thinking of calculating ways to grind victims into the dirt. They will even do it to someone they have slaughtered like Arias did Travis.
She knows very well how to hurt the Alexander family and she also thinks the false claims against Travis will destroy his character. She does everything decisively. Slaughtering Travis was never enough for Arias. She had to take other steps to punish him even in death.
She is calculating and diabolical. She is fully cognizant of every hurt she imposes on others.
BTW, every time I read what Juan said in court I always hear the "Rocky' theme song in my mind.Gosh I wish we could see him in action again. And this time he is going to let it all come out no matter if Nurmi objects a gazillion times. JM is going to show the jury the REAL JA.
And Nurmi looks much older and haggard than last time from the photo I have seen of him. But struggling to work with someone like Arias would take a toll on anyone I suspect.
IMO
Exactly. She may not be able to comprehend their pain but she knows every time she does certain things she digs the knife in a little deeper and she enjoys that. Jodi's the kind that enjoys more than anything getting a reaction from people, positive or negative. We saw this in her dealings with Travis. It makes her feel significant and it makes her feel good to know she's a blip on their radar. She likes to drive people crazy and then pretend it's all them and they're the crazy ones.
Jodi is aware of this family. She stares at them in court, she mimics every action they make to steal the spotlight away from them, as well as learning what she needs to do to appear genuine. Everything the siblings said in allocution she had to one up them in hers (anyone who followed the last sentencing will know exactly why I mean). Yes, she does this because the feelings and wants and needs of others come far behind her own. But she enjoys the waves she's made. Which is why she continues to devise ways to keep making them from her little cell in solitary confinement.
