12/16/14 (Retrial) Day 16-Get the violin ready!

12/16/14

"I WILL GO THERE"

Another day of listening to an "expert" talk about poor Jodi and her false story about her childhood. I suspect Jodi is leading up to accussing her dad of some kind of sexual crime against her.







Court starts in a sidebar. Juan has a piece of paper and all the attorneys went back to discuss it. Trial was moved to 10:30.

Geffner is back on the stand. (He's probably going to spend the day talking about how Jodi had such a terrible childhood. Too bad we can't play the violin while they spin this BS story)
Jodi took a test dealing with trauma. Travis was the most traumatic thing that happened in Jodi's life. 
Travis was murdered. He was stabbed dozen of times, shot and had his throat sliced.
BUT it's Jodi we should all feel sorry for.

Jodi has a lot of aniexty and it goes back to 2008. The poor thing has PTSD. This test was taken 10/2013. Jodi doesn't have clear memories of the murder. It's that damn old fog that rolls in.

Now Geffner is talking about DV. He's trying to explain how parents that whip their children end up making bad kids. Now they show a PowerPoint (oh goody)

Twitter says that jurors are listening very closely and one juror is taking notes.

Geffner says anal sex is interesting. BUT after talking with Jodi about it, it became uncomfortable.

Lunch

(There is some other court stuff that is going on besides this. Juan and Nurmi are still going back and forth over the computer porn. Juan brings up that Nurmi has not supplied the witnesses he was supposed to for Juan to question. The judge tells Nurmi to call them)

New chart is shown in court. It's the Phase one and Phase two of DV. Geffner is now explaining how Travis slowly started to abuse Jodi. (eyeroll) Geffner starts using a stupid example of dogs in cages and how they get shocked over and over but still won't leave the cage when the door is open. He's basically comparing Jodi to a dog.


Geffner brings up how Travis would tell Jodi "it's your fault" for things. Geffner is using Jodi's diary and messages as a point of referrence. Jodi was depressed. Jodi was scared of what would happen if she left Travis. Jodi always was the one that said "I'm sorry" and she knew the fight was over when they had sex.  Today Jodi realizes she was dumb and should have just left Travis.

Geffner is explaining how insults can damage somebody. Geffner sees humiliation and Juan objects.
I think Juan is getting ready to show Geffner what
humiliation really is

Sidebar

Travis embarrased her in public. He called her a skank and wouldn't hold her hand. Jodi felt guilty because she was such a good christian girl (ha- That really wasn't said, but something about her religion made her feel guilty)

Geffner- Jodi was a monogamous person and before she got involved with Travis she broke it off with Darryl. Travis was cheating on her and it broke her heart when she found out.
I guess she wore white to court to show how pure she was.


Sidebar over text messages

Travis talked sexual with Jodi, but then would talk the same way with other girls. Geffner says this is abusive.
Nurmi thinks listening to Jodi talk about her
hoo-ha should be considered abuse.

Now on to the child abuse Jodi suffered. There's another chart put up on child abuse. Abused children can be bullies. Geffner and 2 others drs interviewed Jodi. He interviewed Jodi 3 times. He says when he met Jodi he really didn't know that much about the case.

15 minute break

Now the fog is rolling in.

Jodi has flashback and gaps. She doesn't remember much from age 12-14. She remembers a boy attacked her with a knife and she got her period. She spaced out in 4th grade. Jodi was happy until age 7. Dad got sick and wooden spoon (her mom) was abusive. Jodi was hit with a wooden spoon. Dad whipped her and her brother with a belt.

Jodi really looks like she hates her dad
Yep, Jodi really hates wooden spoon.


Carl was interviewed in Feb of this year. Carl confirmed Jodi was hit with a wooden spoon. Something happened to Jodi between 12-14, but Jodi doesn't remember. Dad would beat them with a WWF belt. The dad had paddles with the kids name on them. Neither kid could remember being hit by it. (foggy brain) Carl put a note under dad's door that said "if you loved me, you wouldn't spank me"

WWF belt

Foggy's family

Geffner says the kids lived in fear. A boy held a knife on Jodi when she was 13. She thought she was going to be raped, but she wasn't. Geffner says Jodi smoked pot, but that it isn't unusual when somebody is depressed.

Sidebar over interview with a family friend named "Faith"

The friend says Jodi was popular and well liked, but she didn't get along with her mom. Jodi kicked a hole in the wall because she was mad at her mom. Geffner doesn't see that as violent because it's a wall and not a person. (hard hard eyeroll)

Kicking a hole in somebody's wall is showing LOVE, not hate, violence or anger


Jodi always spent more money than she had- to max out to go on trips.
Jodi sure does love to take trips. uh, maybe that Cancun trip Travis was suppose
to take with MiMi shows a clear motive.


Jury is out of the room. Willmont had to pull Geffner aside to talk to him.

Geffner says he remembers an interview with Lora, and the judge says "Okay, bring the jury back"

Darryl's sister Lora said that Jodi spent more money than she had. She would go overboard on men. Geffner is trying to say that proves Jodi was abused.

Willmott- Because of Jodi's past would she seek a stable relationship?
Geffner- Yes but they don't know how to form a healthy one so they find someone with like experiences

Bobby is bought up (the vampire hunter) and Geffner says that was an abusive relationship all the way around. Geffner "Jodi moved in with Bobby to get away from home" and Juan objects. Geffer says "oh"
The vampire hunter and the skank



Court is finished for the day.
