Jodi Arias trial update: Cyber bullies and jailhouse tweeting
Article here. Excerpt:
'The Jodi Arias trial update for Wednesday focuses on two bombshell defense witness statements and two explosive cyber dramas. Late in the day, expert witness Alyce La Violette said the defendant shot her victim, Travis Alexander, while in his closet. This contradicts everything the defendant said while on the witness stand. La Violette also admitted that the victim was "very afraid" of Arias shortly before Arias brutally killed him. ...
...
La Violette is another matter. She operates on a "dish it, but can't take it" level. Her supporters call public backlash "witness tampering" and "orchestrated" cyber bullying. Orchestrated action is unlikely because Twitter crowds form spontaneously and change focus very quickly. Many Twitter subscribers were La Violette's longtime fans before she testified.
...
Others have attacked La Violette's book at Amazon. She has hundreds of complaints and poor reviews. Many bad reviews came from women domestic violence victims who feel that La Violette's book is no longer a reliable source of information. Since Amazon Reviews is an open platform, anyone can post a good review for La Violette's book
Many perceive that La Violette’s testimony is based solely on her thought processes. They feel those thought processes are relentlessly biased toward portraying the female defendant as a helpless victim. Her thought processes are equally relentless in portraying Travis Alexander as domestic abuser and perpetrator of his brutal slaying. La Violette has no proof to support her thought processes."'
