Travis Alexander’s autopsy photos . Jodi Arias was convicted of first-degree murder in the slaying of her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander in Arizona, USA, on June 4, 2008. After Arias was found guilty of murder, the judge in the case ruled that the autopsy photos of Alexander were to be made public . This decision was met with significant controversy, as many argued that releasing the photos would invade the privacy of the victim’s family and serve no legitimate purpose. Lawyers warned jurors that they would see graphic crime-scene photos and sexually explicit images that Arias and former boyfriend Travis Alexander took of each other after a tryst, but before. Jurors on Monday were shown graphic pictures said to be taken moments before an Arizona man was killed in his home, allegedly by his girlfriend. Jodi Arias , 32 , could become the fourth. Was it legally admissible evidence that convicted Jodi Ann Arias of murdering Travis Alexander? Or did Prosecutor Juan Martinez rely on ‘suggested’ evidence, which was not properly admitted through the Rules of Evidence? This is what the Appellate Attorneys will be working on. After years of trials, mistrials and resentencing, Jodi Arias is sentenced by Judge Stephens to life in prison without the possibility of parole. The entire trial was live streamed and is currently available on YouTube, along with Jodi’s interrogation videos. Because two previous juries were unable to decide whether or not she should receive the death penalty, the final sentencing decision was up to Judge Sherry Stephens at today’s hearing. Stephens had to rule on whether Arias would serve her natural life in prison or have the possibility of parole after 25 years.
