I come back to JSS saying that CMJA "needed" this witness. I have a difficult time believing she's referring to a nutjob from NZ, as JM would no doubt have been able to inform her NZ guy is just that.
I may be totally wrong here, but I am wondering if this witness is her own dad.
I think it could be for a few reasons. krkrjx said it yesterday, and it makes complete sense to me. I think he is doing anything he can to spare her life, even lying about abusing her. Maybe he wants it kept secret because it is not true, and JM knows it. (from Jodi's own mouth, at last trial)
Just a guess, like everyone else.
1. JA made her mom leave the courtroom
2. He is very sick, and possibly dying (thanks to Jodi)
3. Nurmi started her case with how her father would beat her/choke her
until she was unconscious. How he was abusive, bla, bla bla.
4. I found the transcripts from her trial last year where SHE said
completely something different.

This is another lie. Can't JM call her a liar and then show the jury what she said last year about her dad? Here is what JA said in 1st trial
JODI ARIAS, ACCUSED MURDERER: I don`t really remember except Travis was screaming. I think I got knocked out, but I don`t think I was out long. I know I got knocked in the head and
I'd gotten knocked in the head once by my dad when he was just really mad. And it wasn`t like -- actually he didn`t knock me in the head, he just pushed me against the wall and I hit my head and I fell.
