The earlier report on juror 5 from ABC15
But we do know, this is not the first time the juror has been flagged in the court room.
In court records, we found a transcript of a phone call made to Judge Sherry Stephens division phone at 8:36 a.m. on February 23.
According to the transcript, the caller claims there are reports that the juror needs to be watched.
The one with multi-colored hair is attempting to coach Arias from the jury box. She shakes her head no, no, no to tell Jodi not to answer a question, the caller alleged in the message on Stephens' voicemail.
The caller then asks the judge if the alleged actions are permissible and if it should be looked into.
The caller continues on to say that its the woman with pink and blue hair and shes trying to coach Arias, trying to influence Arias answers from the jury
This complaint was not mentioned in the motion that was filed by Arias' team on Sunday, but involves the same juror.
We did reach out to Maricopa County Court officials to find out if any action was taken regarding this tip, but did not hear back from them.
But, Stephens' staff members felt it was important enough to enter in records.
Arias is accused of killing her former boyfriend, Travis Alexander, by stabbing him 27 times, slashing his throat and shooting him.
If convicted, she could face the death penalty.
