RE: How much money JA had - ever.
There were times during the main trial when the thought of "where was JA getting the money to do all this traveling, etc. on what a waitress makes?" crossed my mind. But I kind of just let it go.
Now, what with claims that she was "giving" or "lending" him amounts as high as $699 coming up, one has to look at this more closely. Where WAS JA coming up with the money?
At this point, LE has certainly had a good look at all of her financial records prior to the murder. They would also have examined all of TA's financial records. So we can assume it is known when any dollar amount went into or came out of either of their accounts. If a check was written but never cashed, that would be known.
Back to Jodi and her earning power. As far as what is known, she never worked as anything other than a waitress, right?
According to Darryl Brewer she was still working as a waitress when she started into the PPL sales after meeting TA. Did we ever hear that she had any success in selling the Prepaid Legal Services? These sales would be all commission, correct?
How much is it possible for a waitress - even a very, very good waitress - to make? One of her non-admiring co-workers described on a Nancy Grace show that JA was so obsessed with TA that she would work her shift and then drive 5 hours to go see him. (Or spy on him) Just the gasoline purchases alone for these trips had to be hefty.
JA had enough money to move from California. She had enough money to rent a residence. Did she get a job when she moved to Arizona? What job? She had enough money to "give" or "lend" money to "help Travis" after his tires were slashed?
Could she have been running up credit cards and only making the minimum payments? Could she have been secretly working for an escort service?
Something does not add up here.
