Does anyone here watch that channel? I've watched the trial of Arizona vs Jodi Arias. I've missed the first part of this trial. I was wondering if any true crime readers have followed this? I find it hard to believe self defense so far from what I've seen? What are your thoughts?

I've been following it from the beginning. Obviously I'm not following this forums so much since I just noticed this post. :-)

I've been watching the trial online. I caught up what I missed by watching YouTube. I am heart broken for the Alexander family.  Not only losing their brother that horrific way but to have to sit in the courtroom and hear the lies of that girl.

She is truly evil Heather. I just hope the jury sees through all her lies. IMHO Juan Martinez has proved beyond a reasonable doubt that she's guilty of First Degree Premeditated Murder.

I wonder if she'll get the death penalty?

She is trying to stay in the public eye. The interview after the verdict was another of her planned stratigies. She wants to live and is trying reverse psychology. I don't believe it'll work. 

What amazes me is the people who think she was abused, and actually believe her lies.

Yes it is. Now she wants a continuance until January 2014 and it's highly likely she'll get it.

I think they will use a new approach and I think gain enough sympathy she will get life with the possibility of parole as much as I hate to say that if they couldn;t do it after that trail even give her life I just have a bad feeling, I'm wondering how effective juries are anymore? I have had my faith in juries shaken once again.

Apparently 4 of the jurors drank the Jodi Kool-aid. I think they based their vote on a select few text messages and e-mails from Travis to consider he was verbally abusive. I just hope they do the research on the case and find more information than they had going into deliberate. I believe he finally saw through her manipulations and called her on it.  I pray if she gets life, it'll be without the possibility of parole.

I think she dazzled Him at first then he noticed her creepy stalker type ways and by the time he realized who she really was it was to late.The trip he was going on with out her was the last straw she felt she had lost her hold on him and killed him.
