Conviction : the untold story of putting Jodi Arias behind bars
(Book)

"The trials of the notorious murderess Jodi Arias. Arizona prosecutor Juan Martinez fought relentlessly to convict Jodi Arias of Murder One for viciously stabbing her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander to death in 2008. What emerged was a story wrought with sex, manipulation, and deceit that stunned the public at every turn. Arias, always playing the wronged and innocent woman, changed her story continually as her bizarre behavior surrounding the crime and its aftermath came to light. She at first denied killing Alexander at his home outside Phoenix. Then she admitted shooting and stabbing him nearly 30 times, but said it was in self-defense. She was finally found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Prosecutor Juan Martinez reveals details from the investigation and how he felt losing the death penalty sentence he'd fought for. The truth behind the multiple facades of Jodi Arias, how this seemingly normal girl became a deluded, cunning, and unrepentant murderer. This book takes you inside the mind of Jodi Arias."--Provided by publisher.
