We also know he said she had had a perfectly normal life prior to TA! He may have formed this opinion independent of ole Alyce. However, Samuels and LaViolette were just a part of the lies fed into this case...and they both sat there and lied...and 'bent the truth' on Arias' behalf, as if they thought they were too crafty to ever be caught in it. Like I said, and have always said, very simplistically, 4 jurors fell under her spell during that sentencing phase...and at least 2 witnesses fell under her spell prior to that trial ever beginning, and she played them like a fiddle which, to me, is quite obvious...Richard Samuels and Alyce LaViolette! Janeen DeMarte for the prosecution, although criticized for her lack of experience, was truly the only professional of the three!<br /><br />I am a very simple person. I am not eloquent. I communicate very simply and I see things very simply...just straight to the heart of the matter, in my simple way of looking at things. I've only a nursing education in my past. So, anyway, I saw Samuels and LaViolette as Arias' 'puppets'....I call what she does as 'puppeteering!' Something she had become quite adept at that even they fell victim to. But, Did Expert Witness Testimony Effect Sentencing in Jodi Arias Trial? Again, hard to say, as the jurors could have formed their opinions apart from those witnesses simply because they fell for Arias. We will never know, and they will never admit that! <br /><br />Have a nice evening.<br /><br />~M. Bethnae~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
