Jodi Arias Trial Update: Next Hearing Date on Jan. 3, Victims Brother Says
Judge Sherry Stephens has held hearing after hearing behind closed doors as the next steps of the case unfold almost entirely under a shroud of secrecy. Over the last several months, she has heard arguments over sequestering the new jury, moving the case out of Phoenix, Arias desire to fire her lead attorney ,and allowing live television coverage of the retrial, among other issues.
She has denied each request, but quietly with orders released days after the secret hearings as the case languishes without public scrutiny even as Arias legal tab is being picked up by taxpayers at a cost exceeding $1.7 million.
Steven Alexander has given updates about the moves on the Facebook page, including the series of defense motions denied.
