Jodi Arias LIVE: Murder Trial Live-stream

Impact

The murder trial of Jodi Arias resumes on Monday in Phoenix, Arizona. Arias stands accused of murdering her lover, Travis Alexander in June 2008. Arias admits to killing Alexander — shooting him in the head and stabbing him 29 times — but claims it was in self-defense after Alexander allegedly attacked her in a rage. The defense is claiming that Arias was regularly subjected to emotional and physical abuse, including sexual, at the hands of Alexander. Earlier in the trial, jurors listened to a recording of Arias and Alexander having phone sex.

If convicted of first degree murder, Arias could receive the death penalty.
