of the Jodi Arias trial. http://abcnews.go.com/US/jodi-arias-defense-attacks-travis-alexander-testimony/story?id=18355580
I guess I am hooked on it. What can I say? I was hooked on the O.J. trial and the Casey Anthony trial. I thought both of those trials turned out badly as I felt Simpson and Anthony were both guilty. I think Arias is guilty too, but who knows how a jury will decide.
I have been a juror on a county and federal trial. I am fascinated with the whole jury system. I think that is one reason I love the books by Phillip Margolin. http://www.phillipmargolin.com/ He is a criminal defense lawyer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phillip_Margolin and he imparts that into his writing.
It is very cold and sunny this morning at 16 degrees. It is very windy too so the wind chill is right down there. I have been grocery shopping this morning stocking up for the below zero temps that are on the way.
Are you all geared up for the Super Bowl?? I am not as I don’t understand football. Jim tried to explain it to me time after time. I do love baseball and basketball though. Not to say that I don’t admire the outfits the football guys wear. LOL
Keep warm, stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
Morning Beth...we are already at 30 !! lol But it's cold out there and the wind doesn't help a bit.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch those trials...don't even know what the one is you're watching. I'm afraid I don't have a LOT of faith in the justice system...as they say, just 12 people not smart enough to get out of jury duty. I have always done my duty, but only once was I ever actually on a jury. Then I was released because I knew the DOJ guys in question. lol
I went out yesterday for my sub-zero stocking up, lol. I think I'm set. I won't be watching the SB either. never have, never will. Just don't care about it and there are always plenty of other things to do. lol
Take care of your sweet self in this weather...xoxoxox
Wooo...eeee it is cold out there compared to what it was a couple of days ago.It's 17 here with wind chill of 12 below.. Admire you getting out in it. I walk a little bit and I am frozen. I am not so much into trials etc..so that passes me by.. I figure nothing much I can do about it and the jury has all the power so doesn't bother me. As for the Superbowl..I like the excitement of it and hopefully it will be a close game as I HATE one sided ones. Looking forward to the commercials too. Stay warm and well Sis.. XOXO
ReplyDeletehad not even heard of this case before. stay warm!
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, John and I often follow trials on court tv and we have watched much of the Arias trial. I often watch Nancy Grace and Jane Velez Mitchell's shows at night to catch up on the day's events in the trial. I think I get my interest in that from mother - who loved Perry Mason and Murder She Wrote tv shows!
ReplyDeleteWe had heavy rain/wind yesterday and a tornado touched down about 30 miles away. Today the sun is out but it is cold for us. Take care.
Beth, I have never heard of that trial. I agree that Simpson and Anthony were guilty. I like baseball, college football. Not so into basketball...which seems crazy being a hoosier.:):) We are having the exact same weather today. Let's stay warm and healthy. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteI have been keeping an eye on that trial,too. How can they NOT find her guilty?!?! But...my hunches have certainly been wrong in the past. I see that there is now a re-investigation into the Casey Anthony trial....
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you- we are ready for the Super Bowl!!! xo Diana
I am not aware with any of these trials.. but I remember OJ! so cold here too and windy...the dog keeps barking at the wind!
ReplyDeleteLOL you crack me up about their outfits :).
ReplyDeleteI do get wrapped into the trials too, and those 2 broke my heart.
Stay warm my dear :)
I used to get so into these trials but I try not to as much anymore :)
ReplyDeleteEven though the Ravens are playing and everyone around is is Raven crazy I just can't get excited about. I'm tired of hearing about them and will be glad when it's over - win or lose.
ReplyDeleteI don't get football quite. Some games are way more exciting than others. I won't be watching this year. Got a chuckle out of your admiration of the uniform. : )
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on football. I'm a guy and not embarrassed that I don't like it AT ALL. It's really boring. So on these football days, we are heading outdoors for some fun with the wildlife. Much more exciting I think:)
ReplyDeleteI have a glance or two that I spare court cases and such but don't watch them avidly...I'm with you on who I felt was guilty with Simpson and Anthony. Football? I get it I think I just have zero interest in it. Our weather brought a couple inches of snow and some cold but it looks to break as of tomorrow...you know I won't shed a tear ;)
ReplyDeleteToo cold and windy to walk here. This morning the road was a sea of mud but is now hardening. Crazy weather.
ReplyDeleteBitter cold here..and no we are not footballs fans..I don't even know who is playing..have a great weekend:)
ReplyDeleteWhat is the Super Bowl? I am just kidding I am not a fan as I know nothing about it. I do love the commercials and the wings that apparently are in short supply. :) Take care Beth. Hug B
ReplyDeleteStay warm, Beth. Weather this year has been amazingly different everywhere. Spring has to be coming soon. BGB
ReplyDeleteThat Jodi Arais trial is going on right here very close to where I live. The murder happened up in Mesa, just a few miles from here. The entire story makes me sick to my stomach. I haven't been following the trial except for just what I hear on the evening news. Trials can be interesting, I just think this Arais woman is a total sicko - and yes, totally guilty (I think her boyfriend that she killed was pretty sick too)!
ReplyDeleteI expect we will watch the Super Bowl, but we certainly don't need lots of snacks to get through it.:-)
ReplyDeleteJanuary has brought us over 12 inches of rain here, making this the wettest January in many, many years, if not ever!
I hope you have had a good Thursday, Beth. Stay safe and warm!
xo Nellie
Yes, it's SuperBowl Weekend! Bill will bw home this weekend, so we will watch it together. I learned to love football when I was in ROTC. I absorbed it through the guys.
ReplyDeleteFirst up I don't get sports at all as for being on a jury I would love to be on a jury but have only ever recieved a notice for jury service once in my life and that was way back when Kathy-Lee was a baby and had to send off the form to be excempt. Hubby has recieved many notices about jury duty but he has never been required to be on a jury.
