----------------------------------------------After a year and a half after the guilty verdict, the retrial of the sentencing phase will finally get underway tomorrow with the start of jury selection. This whole mess, with one young man's death at the heart of it, has been unprecedented in so many ways. I am more than ready for this sorry excuse of a human being to be sentenced, put away and hopefully fade into obscurity.
I remember reading posts on a forum dating back to 2008, where people were really interested to see this go to trial, learn more about the crime and Arias. People expected it to be crazy, but I don't think anyone could have predicted exactly how bizarre it would turn out. Unfortunately, I think there is yet more to come in the "trials of the weird" department. After all, CMJA has worked hard to build a cult following and she sure does not want to disappoint them.
YesorNo, you've been doing a great job with posting tweets and this will be the main way to follow the trial. For you, and anyone else who plans on following the trial real time via Twitter, consider building a Twitter list just for this purpose. You can add specific accounts of people who will be in the courtroom tweeting, and hopefully the combined tweets of different observers will give a fuller picture of what is happening.
I've built a list and right now, these are the people on that list:
