A judge sentenced convicted murderer Jodi Arias to life in prison without the possibility of parole Monday, for the murder of her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander.

The decision by Judge Sherry Stephens was largely a formality after a jury deadlocked last month on whether to give Arias the death penalty or life in prison. The mistrial removed the death penalty as an option.

The only decision left was whether the judge would allow the 34-year-old Arias to be eligible for release after 25 years. She declined to do that, meaning Arias will spend the rest of her life in prison.

Oh well....

"...life in prison without the possibility of parole Monday, for the murder of her ex-boyfriend..."

Interesting phrasing. Is he the "ex" because he's dead, or because she broke up with him prior to murdering him?

[Tigerized]

Boyfriend’s lives matter.

Good.

And had she been a man, I bet you he would have the death penalty then.

She’s hot like a dirty librarian

[martinidon]

After the first mistrial the Judge should have just sentenced her to life without parole and save the tax payers the millions of dollars we spent on this media circus. In fact, the prosecutor probably should have tried to plea this to life without parole. The state spent millions and this was nothing but a circus from the beginning....

She’s young now: the rest of her life behind bars could be a very long time.

Prolly just as well.

I don’t think I could’ve rehabilitated her anyway.

Laz can have her...

JODY ARIAS

I vote GUILTY

“The 11 jurors who wanted the death penalty said the holdout juror had an agenda and was sympathetic to Arias.”

Hillary will pardon her in 2017.

Lady parts sisterhood and all.

lol

[goldstategop]

Let me guess: a guy with the hots for her.

[al baby]

I still find her strangley attractive

[soycd]

More Guilty.

It seems like this “story” has been in the “news” for at least the past 10 years.

I understood that her lawyer made her dress and wear glasses to look less like a Black Widow and to look more vulnerable. This woman dressed differently looks hot. I also think it didn't work. She is evil anyway.

The juror was a woman, no hots were stated.

I still find her strangley attractive

strangley indeed.
