In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum, brings together a powerhouse panel including Susan Hendricks, Joshua Schiffer, Dani after Dark, and Kirk Nurmi to break down the second trial of Karen Read, and it’s more than just a courtroom drama.

John O'Keefe/Karen Read Series Coverage:KIRK NURMI is back (former criminal defense attorney for JODI ARIAS and legal commentator on COURT TV) to discuss the controversial KAREN READ Murder trial thus far. READ is on trial for allegedly killing her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer JOHN O'KEEFE, with her car."I would take a different approach or a different view of what he's doing. I think Mr. Lally is trying to negate the idea of a conspiracy before the defense comes up and puts on their case for a conspiracy. I think ultimately, in doing that, he's playing right into their hands because what we're hearing more of, is more evidence of a possible conspiracy, but not the actual crime. That's why I say if I was in the Commonwealth's position as their prosecutor, I'd be keeping it very simple, very straightforward. I don't care.

Co-Hosts Amy Van Dyken-Rouen and Kirk Nurmi Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it. Our mindset plays a very intricate part in our day to day life. Having a positive mindset can redirect everything negative that happens in our lives. It's not what happens to us but what we do with it that makes all the difference. Amy Van Dyken-Rouen is a six-time Olympic gold medalist, and has spent a lifetime defying the odds. She took up swimming to beat her childhood asthma and In the 1996 games, she broke records and made history for becoming the first American woman to earn four gold medals in a single Olympics. In June 2014 , a freak ATV accident altered her life and left her paralyzed from the waist down. She also suffered broken ribs, a head injury, and a severe vascular injury. Her prognosis was anything but good as one doctor told her to say goodbye to her husband before going into surgery because they weren't sure they could save her. As any warrior does, Amy fought her way back and now has become an outspoken advocate for those who have suffered spinal cord injuries and those who are disabled. She once said that she wants to be known as a woman who did things that have never been done before, breaking barriers, hopefully making it more human to be a disabled person. Join us as we talk about Amy's journey, go off on tangents and have a fun time just conversing about life. #determination #perseverance #humanspirit #humanwill #happiness #kindness #livingyourbestlife #goldmedal #swimming #motivation #teamusa #champion #mindfullness #positivity #olympics #olympicgames #athlete #mentalhealth #awareness #selflove #selfcare #sheddingyourskin #beingyourtrueself #loveofself #nolimitations #perception #dowhatmakesyouhappy #livingwithiuntention #THECOLLECTIVE #GetRealWithRobin #KirkNurmi #AmyVanDykenRouen

A beautiful woman I was lucky enough to call a friend recently lost her battle with cancer. Kirk Nurmi and I had planned to do a show with her a while back but I got word from her husband that she would have to postpone due to her being in the hospital. She had since recovered and we were planning on doing the show once again, but the cancer had returned. The last time I spoke to her was just a few weeks ago. Then I got the word that she was gone. Jennifer Ruddle was a true warrior. She was diagnosed with stage IV colorectal cancer in 2017 with 11% chance of survival. But she fought and beat it. She then opened herself up and shared her story on the pageant circuit, earning herself the title of Mrs. Arizona in 2020. Back in June of 2019, I had the chance to sit down and have a conversation one on one with Jennifer. Her message is so important that I want to share it with you all. She fought hard and in the public eye, never backing away from talking so openly about her journey through colorectal cancer . So to honor her warrior strength, here is that conversation. Thank you for being such a bright light and beautiful soul Jennifer. We all weep at your loss but will never forget what you brought to our lives.

The stakes couldn't be higher for defendant Ronnie Oneal. He's on trial for double homicide, accused of brutally murdering his girlfriend, his special needs daughter and attempting to kill his seven-year-old son.  Florida prosecutors think the crime merits the death penalty, which makes it all the more remarkable that Ronnie Oneal chose to act as his own lawyer and defend himself. Acting as his own lawyer means he also got to cross examine the state's star witness, Oneal's son. Court TV followed the trial and we'll bring you excerpts of Oneal's closing arguments as our host Vinnie Politan and famed Jodi Arias defense attorney Kirk Nurmi discuss why the old adage about the man who represents himself has a fool for a client tends to be true.  Get the latest updates on CourtTV and CourtTV.com and tune in to see Vinnie Politan and the entire Court TV team review each day's testimony on Closing Arguments weeknights from 8pm to 11pm.

I am so glad I had this conversation. I was apprehensive because I wasn't sure if I agreed with a lawyer publishing a tell all memoir about a client, but I let Kirk tell his story and it became clear that staying silent was not an option. His life was completely taken over by the case, the trials, and by Ms. Arias herself. In this episode, Kirk shares what that was like, how it impacted him, and how he came to the other side. Don't want to spoil anything, but there is light on the other side, and Kirk is doing great. Talking with him made me deeply empathetic toward him and also brought up incredibly troubling aspects of our justice system that do not have easy answers; cameras in court room, media coverage, and more.

Episode #24 of Gruler Nation features Kirk Nurmi, former attorney to the infamous Jodi Arias. Kirk is also a cancer survivor, an author of numerous books, and a motivational speaker. In this episode Kirk shares how he rebuilt his life after beating cancer and the important life lessons he learned while battling his own infamy. Kirk believes that too many of us live unhappy lives due to the fact that as human beings we begin to believe that financial success outweighs our own true happiness. Kirk promotes happiness independent of your work life and believes that one should not fear making happiness a priority due to the misconception that happiness could lead to financial ruin. Before cancer came into Kirk's life, he admits that he was one of those people. However, when he choose to fight cancer he knew he was really chasing to fight for more time on this planet and with that came the decision that he would not live his remaining years, the years he would earn if he beat cancer, the way he had his previous 49 years. This shift was a game changer and Kirk believes much of what he learned along the way can help and inspire others who may be facing the same challenges, and even provide awareness to future professionals entering the work place. Kirk has had success locally and will be traveling to San Francisco for his One- Man Show, "Infamy Cancer Life", where he speaks about living with your heart and being true to yourself, because being happy is deeper than just being financially successful.

Ep 124 Kirk Nurmi (PART 1): Lawyer to Jodi Arias Teaches How to Live With Joyful Urgency Kirk's journey is a truly special one. Life has brought him several challenges most couldn't even imagine facing. Not only has he taken them on, he has is taking on life while working to teach the world how to live with, "joyful urgency."  As a young man Kirk had a fascination with law and knew that when he grew up he wanted to be a lawyer. After facing multiple rejections from law school, he had a choice. He could give up his dream and stay working at the super market, or he could take the necessary steps and try again. Eventually, he made his dream become a reality and was a practicing defense attorney. He believes that every person is entitled to have the best possible defense.  His most notable case was when he was tasked to defend Jodi Arias, one of the most highly visible court cases possibly ever. He tells us about this time in his life: being on TV virtually 24/7, receiving hate mail, and even death threats.  After he decided to step away from law, life threw another challenge his way. This time, it was a battle with cancer.  Kirk took that challenge on as well and through his books, his speaking, and interviews like this he is working to help spread joy, peace, and love to the world. In Part 1 of my interview with Kirk he will discuss: How he overcame being rejected by law schools to ultimately achieve his goals The main lessons he learned from his career in law How he managed to handle the stress and pressure from defending Jodi Arias in one of the most infamous trials in recent history Why it is important to confront ourselves with questions at certain points in our lives Why Kirk has decided to use, "Happiness as a beacon" and how you can too What it means to live with "Joyful Urgency" and why every person should adopt this mindset And so much more!   To learn more about Kirk and pick up a copy of his most recent book, click the links below:  Visit Kirk's Website Here: UnchainedLives.com To see a list of Kirk's upcoming events click here: https://www.unchainedlives.com/#upcoming-events Kirk's Newest Book, Defend Your Greatness: https://www.amazon.com/Defend-Your-Greatness-Kirk-Nurmi/dp/1723908851   To subscribe to the podcast, search for "Overcoming Graduation" on Itunes or on Stitcher or click here to be taken to the Itunes page!

The lurid 2013 murder trial of Jodi Arias, an Arizona waitress accused of brutally stabbing her ex-boyfriend to death in 2008, was a crossroads for former public defender Laurence “Kirk” Nurmi. Nurmi had just entered private practice when he took over as lead counsel for Arias in the case. By his own account, he was reviled for the defense strategy of portraying Arias’ victim as an abusive pedophile who was attacking Arias when she stabbed him. Nurmi has said he even received death threats from strangers following the widely covered trial. His own client eventually joined the ranks of Nurmi’s critics. After Arias was convicted, she gave interviews lacing into Nurmi for botching the case. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Kirk Nurmi gained the national spotlight when he was appointed to represent convicted boyfriend killer Jodi Arias. “I got a lot of death threats,” Nurmi explains.  “I became high profile and famous overnight in a situation where I wasn't seeking it out, I was just trying to do my job. My appointed job.” At that point, he'd been practicing law for 15 years.   So, it came as a bit of a shock – even to him – that he wanted out.  “It felt like it was something more powerful. A message from my heart telling me it was time to chart a new course.”  At first he chalked it up to burnout. Then, a health scare made him realize a total life change was necessary and urgent.  “I found inflammation in my lymph node under my armpit,”  Nurmi shares. “Healthy blood cells turning into unhealthy blood cells and I knew right away it was the stress of it all.” After being diagnosed with stage 3 Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a cancer that originates in your lymphatic system, Nurmi had to face some tough decisions.  “I went to a dark place,” Nurmi says.  “Do I really want to go through chemotherapy? Do I really want to do this?  At 49 years old I never thought about my mortality.”It was at that moment Nurmi changed his life.  He went forward with the chemo and underwent a total mind and body transformation.He began writing books, and launched a website www.unchainedlives.com On the site, Nurmi writes:“Helping you unchain yourself and DEFENDING YOUR GREATNESS is my new mission.  I do this mainly through sharing my personal story in keynote speeches, however, I also work as a life coach for select individuals who want to unchain themselves from the ties that bind them so that they can reconnect with and DEFEND THEIR GREATNESS.”In this Transformation Tuesday interview, we talk about HOW he unchained himself and defended his greatness.  He takes us through each of the 5 following steps:(1) Taking care of yourself(2) Making Happiness A Priority(3) Following Your Heart(4) Defying convention by exploring the road less traveled (5) Restraining your mental martyr Nurmi also shares details about how he lost over 80 pounds and now experiences much greater overall health and happiness.He is a voracious reader and follows heart-centered leaders like Kyle Cease https://kylecease.com/ who he credits with helping on the journey to now. And what a journey it has been.  “If we don't feel worthy of whatever greatness we have inside of us, we aren't going to pursue it,” Nurmi shares.   “Sometimes it's hard to understand the vibrational level that we are in, when we are in it. One of the things i thought about when I was in the chemo chair, it was really about how I spent the last 6-12 months of my life.  And I asked myself that question… was I happy with how I spent that time in my life? And the answer was no. But the answer today is yes.” The post Defending Your Greatness with Kirk Nurmi appeared first on Inspired Media 360 TV - Inform | Inspire | Engage.

SEASON 5 EPISODE 20 King Jordan Radio welcomes back Former Attorney for Jodi Arias ,Kirk Nurmi the long-running Arias case massively screwed up the Arizona lawyer's life. When the televised courtroom drama became a worldwide sensation, Nurmi became a target of public hate for defending her. While working at the Maricopa County Public Defender's Office in 2008, Nurmi's supervisor handed him the Arias file, telling him, "It's a unique case." Nurmi saw immediately that the murder case was complicated, and he found out soon enough that Arias was a difficult client.At first, he wasn't worried. At 49, he was in good health, having shed so many pounds between Arias' two trials. He even had self-published a book about his weight loss.After undergoing surgery to extract the lump, however, Nurmi was told he had non-Hodgkin lymphoma.Shock soon was replaced by near devastation. "Within the course of a month or so, I had gone from a guy who felt great and was planning on getting back to work after a few months off to a guy that had non-Hodgkin lymphoma," he recalls. "I had just fought hard to save the life of a client whom I did not like, and now somehow I had to muster the strength to save my own."

Kirk Nurmi return's to King Jordan Radio 2-4 CALL & Speak to KIRK! 347-857-295 Most people know Kirk based on the fact that he represented Jodi Arias at trial that received national and international attention. However, while this case is how many know his representation of Ms. Arias at trial is not when his legal career began.In fact, it began in 2000 after he graduated from the University of Wyoming.  In 2001, Kirk began working at the Maricopa County Public Defender’s Office.  he worked there for over 10 years and during that time he successfully defended several individuals accused of serious crimes.  For several years he exclusively represented  people who were accused of sexual offenses.  In the latter part of Kirk's career with the Public Defender’s Office he worked in the Capital Unit where I tried two other capital cases besides Jodi Arias.

“I have really put a priority on my health.  Having cancer changes your priority on everything.” Kirk Nurmi has walked through an incredible journey over the past few years.  After being assigned to represent notorious boyfriend-killer Jodi Arias, Nurmi's life, at times, seemed like a reality TV show.  One that he never wanted to be the star of.   Nurmi was thrust into the center of a media circus as he tried to save the life of one of the most hated women in America.  And that is just the beginning of the story.  Along the way, Nurmi very publicly lost 75 pounds — and found out he had cancer.   It was August of 2015 when Nurmi became concerned about a growth under his arm.  A month later, he received the news no one wants to hear.  Cancer.  The diagnosis was Stage 3 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. “I came forward about it is because so many interviews I've heard inspired me in terms of the people who had gone through it and survived it,” Nurmi says.  The diagnosis came just months after he was finally freed of his responsibility as Arias' attorney. “A lot of people thought I wanted to be there, sought her out as a client, wanted to be in front of the cameras.”   This is how Nurmi came to title his book “Trapped With Ms. Arias”.   In his book, he writes that he was forced to represent a manipulative and intimidating client who was sexually inappropriate and “very disturbed.” What is Jodi Arias really like as a person?  “That is probably the million dollar question,” Nurmi says.  He likens it to “dealing with a really intelligent 5 year old.” “You know that children are impulsive, narcissistic, and short sighted in their thinking.  Imagine dealing with that every day,” he says of Arias who is now serving a life sentence for killing Travis Alexander. Nurmi writes: “To fully get a visual of what Ms. Arias did to my brain you would have to find some fecal matter, throw it into the pan, add a chopped up dead rat and scramble the whole mess up.  Once completely cooked this concoction would then approximate the effect that Ms. Arias would have on my brain.” When asked about the most shocking moment during the high-profile trial — which was live streamed to the media every day — Nurmi says he was shocked to hear someone had sold their ticket to sit in the gallery (for two hundred dollars).  It was officially a three ring circus. The trial and intense media coverage took an emotional toll on Nurmi and his wife.  In between trials, he lost 75 pounds.  Not because of stress, he says.  Rather, he made a commitment to some major lifestyle changes.  Perhaps one way to gain a little bit of control in a world that was wildly spinning.   Nurmi says he lost the weight “the old fashioned way” with a calorie reduction plan.  He reduced his daily intake to 1200-1600 calories and increased his activity.  He believes no fancy diet plan is needed.  Nurmi wrote a book about his weight loss journey in which he encourages people to “create their own idea of what might work” and “be invested in that program.”  For Kirk Nurmi, weight loss was just part of an ongoing battle for better health.  At the time of our interview, he was about to undergo his final chemotherapy treatment, and was looking forward to the next chapter in his life.  One he says will focus on education, enlightenment, and moving forward. “I wanted to define myself because there were so many misconceptions about myself as Jodi Arias' former lawyer.  I am more than that.” The post Life After Jodi Arias: Kirk Nurmi Talks about Surviving the Trial, Losing 75 pounds, and His Current Battle — with Cancer appeared first on Inspired Media 360 TV - Inform | Inspire | Engage.
