I really think that the LWOP will be worse for Arias. A death sentence would have provided her with opportunities to further manipulate the system. It has all been taken away from her. She will have a cage to live in and criminals for friends. Not a noteworthy life by any stretch of the imagination.
the fact that he said "victory" shows his ignorance meanwhile willmott laughing in background
Respect to her for hanging on to her beliefs. That cannot have been easy. She believes what she believes. There really isn't a whole lot else to go on with mitigation, imho.
I don't understand the anger at someone who voted their conviction and based on what they saw.
How do we know it was a one juror hold out?
I didn't hear that yet. How would they know that she sent JSS a note in secret?
When she goes outside will she be in a cage? I read where one prisoner was out in one of those cages in the blistering sun, and was forgotten by the guards. She died.
Trying to be optimistic. I believe that LWOP will be just as bad or worse for Arias. A death sentence would have provided her with opportunities to further manipulate the system. It has all been taken away from her. She will have a cage to live in and criminals for friends. Not a noteworthy life by any stretch of the imagination.

And you are surprised why
Juan did such a good job. He cannot in any be blamed for this. They liked him, looked forward to him and felt he really drove it home.
She thought she'd be the next Debra Milke and get her Death Sentence overturned on appeal and walk out a free woman. She was planning to join that lawsuit.
I missed the beginning of the interviews, did anyone ask the jury about Fonseca and her attitude with JM when she was on the stand?
Why bother reading that trout? I don't see the point.
Extremely unprofessional, how does she sleep at night, it is beyond my comprehension.Yes, I guess it's actually Maria doing it,but I just can't believe this is allowed. I'm sick to my stomach.

Right? And hopefully we won't have to hear how he should have done this or that because of what the jury has said. I wouldn't really call it a "win" for the defense because the jury didn't buy what they were selling or what JA was selling and they didn't believe Fonseca and had trouble with Geffner so I think the State did an amazing job considering.....
I don't have to defend my thoughts to you. JSS has waffled, closed courtroom number of times, Held secret in chambers meetings, allowed secret testimony and ignored jurors who let her know that one would not deliberate.
Someone up thread asked what is the penalty for a juror who made decisions based on a lifetime movie. I want to know what is the penalty for the lying defense attorneys who trashed a good man to win at all costs and the judge who caved for the murderer. Seems to me there is blame to go around.
And what is LWOP really? Jodi has already approached max row prisoners and made friends and has lots of money in her account. She will be BFF with lots of them and can sing them to sleep. What exactly is her punishment if she gets LWOP? Are we to be upset because oohhh, she sleeps on a three inch thick plastic mattress with no air conditioning? Are we supposed to be good with that? JSS will likely make sure her sentencing hearing is closed to the public. That's the way she works. I have no apologies to make.
