Jodi Arias Appeal to Remove Death Penalty Denied
Jodi Arias attorneys were denied the chance to have the death penalty taken off the table in
Arias murder trial, as the Arizona Supreme Court rejected their petition for an appeal.
Arias was convicted of murdering her ex-boyfriend, Travis Alexander, and is facing the possibility of the death penalty. The jury that found her guilty of premeditated murder was split over whether to sentence Arias to death. The prosecutor now must decide whether to find a new jury to decide Arias punishment.
During the trial, however, Arias attorneys appealed to Arizonas highest court to reconsider whether Arias should face the death penalty.
They claimed that the prosecutions testimony about the way Alexander died, and how cruel it was, was inconsistent.
