Will Jodi Arias Get A New Trial For The Horrific Murder Of Her Ex-Boyfriend Alexander Travis?

Last year Jodi announced she was going to try to appeal her murder conviction in the horrific slaying of her boyfriend, Alexander Travis. She was claiming that the "circus-like" atmosphere prevented her from receiving a fair trial. Her attorneys were also claiming prosecutorial misconduct.

She is now 39-years old and 6 years into her sentence of life without parole. And we're still waiting on the judges ruling about the appeal.

Travis Alexander was a salesman who was murdered by his ex-girlfriend, Jodi Arias, in his house in Mesa, Arizona. Alexander sustained multiple knife wounds and a gunshot to the head. Arias changed her story on what happened to travels several times. First she claimed that she wasn't even with Travis when Alexander was killed. Then she said that two guys broke in and killed him. At trial, prosecutors said Arias killed Alexander in a jealous rage after learning he was planning a trip to Mexico with another woman. Arias claimed it was self-defense, but the jury didn't buy it. Arias was convicted of first-degree murder on May 8th, 2013, and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole on April 13, 2015.

Was it really self defense? 

Arias purchased three 5 gallon gas cans, so she could travel through the state of Arizona, without having to stop, which would make it harder to prove that she was there.There was a handgun, knives and condoms found inside her rental car.

Alexander was murdered, naked, in the shower. Pictures were found on Aria's camera, that was hidden in the washing machine, of Alexander moments before he was killed.
