This photo shows where the bullet wound was in his head.

Juan explains that #JodiArias dragged Travis down the hallway in an attempt to clean things up. A photo of Travis' head is put up.

After #JodiArias slit his neck she then shot him in the head. He puts up the photo of Jodi's foot and pant leg with Travis in the background

"This was a very well orchestrated killing" Juan says. The image of the bloody wall is put back up now.

Very emotional here, much of Travis' family is crying and have their heads down. Very sad scene.

Jodi shaking her head at Juan about him saying "she was carrying the camera" - Oh......does that mean she now REMEMBERS??

5:13 p.m. ET: Martinez made an excellent point. The wound to Alexander's throat required a direct attack. It was not done out of self defense

5:11 p.m. ET: Arias is still crying, and hiding behind her hand. Martinez took advantage of the moment.

“She may cry now. The jury instructions have told you that sympathy is not to be considered in this particular case," said Martinez.
5:16 p.m. ET: Martinez is detailing photos of the crime scene show how Arias drug Alexander's lifeless body down his hallway and at some point she shot him in the head., and that's why there was limited bleeding from that wound.


5:08 p.m. ET: Martinez is still detailing how he believes Arias attacked Alexander.

"And so, she gets her knife. And she took that knife and stabbed him. Side. Front. The reason that we know that she did that is because Mr. Alexander has the defense wounds, and he has defensive wounds to his left and to his right hand. As she is stabbing him, he is alive and he is cognizant of it, and he begins to grab at the knife. But unfortunately for Mr. Alexander, one of the knife wounds is to the heart. Doesn’t mean he’s going to die immediately, it means he’s just going to die…Blood coming from his heart, blood coming from his mouth, and blood coming from his wounds,” said Martinez.

5:26 p.m. ET:

“The (bullet) casing is expelled, and it lands on the blood that is already there. So that’s when she delivers this shot to him, somebody that’s already dead. So she’s killed him three times over. Is that enough premeditation? Even though she’s done all of this planning already, this was a very directed attack,” said Arias.

5:24 p.m. ET: Martinez said investigators don't know she did with the knife or the gun, but she got rid of them.

5:22 p.m. ET: Arias appears to still be emotionally distraught as Martinez details the actions Arias took to clean up the crime scene. It is not clear whether she is crying right now.

5:19 p.m. ET: Many of the people sitting in the gallery can't bring themselves to look at the pictures of Alexander's body Martinez is displaying for jury.

5:16 p.m. ET: Martinez is detailing photos of the crime scene show how Arias drug Alexander's lifeless body down his hallway and at some point she shot him in the head., and that's why there was limited bleeding from that wound.

I agree with Wild - I don't see tears.

Juan is talking about when #JodiArias left a message on Travis' phone, the one she recorder many times over after she brutally killed him

#JodiArias continues to cry although I don't see many tears.

Juan exclaims that #JodiArias killed Travis "three times over" and that she staged the scene.

From the clothing she had, to the towel, the gun, none of this was found. #JodiArias was cleaning up because she did not want to be caught.

Had #JodiArias been in this hysterical mood she wants the jury to believe why would she clean off the knife? Juan asks.

Washing away all of the DNA from Travis' body is another indication of premed as well.

She's crying for herself. She knows Martinez has got it down how she did it. She's the one that's full of crap!!!

Good one, MBTB! Yes, she IS! She's probably wondering how Martinez was able to piece it together so well!

Good, I was hoping he would make a list of all the lies!

5:38 p.m. ET:

Martinez' discussion of stabbing & handling of the knife will be difficult for defense to counteract as #JodiArias claimed she was in a fog.

5:35 p.m. ET: Martinez is explaining the difference between circumstantial evidence and direct evidence.

5:32 p.m. ET: Arias said she cut her hand on a broken glass at a restaurant. Martinez said that cut was caused when the knife slipped when she was stabbing Alexander.

5:30 p.m. ET: Martinez said when Arias left Alexander's house after the murder she called Ryan Burns and said she was on her way to see him. Burns was nothing more than Arias' alibi according to Martinez.

"Ryan Burns was nothing more than her alibi. Maybe he was a little bit more because of the interest that she showed…she continues on to Utah into his waiting arms. Gosh, you can almost hear the violins making their sound as she goes up to him, gives him that first kiss, isn’t that romantic? And then later on, as they kiss passionately...although, according to her, he’s full of crap! Anybody that doesn’t agree with her are full of crap," said Martinez.

5:28 p.m. ET:

“We do know that she cleaned up. And it isn’t because she loved Mr. Alexander that she cleaned up, it wasn’t that she wanted him to look good…the net effect of what she did is to destroy any of her DNA. She washed it off. That’s what people do when they want things off their hands. They wash up,” said Martinez.

5:26 p.m. ET:

“The (bullet) casing is expelled, and it lands on the blood that is already there. So that’s when she delivers this shot to him, somebody that’s already dead. So she’s killed him three times over. Is that enough premeditation? Even though she’s done all of this planning already, this was a very directed attack,” said Arias.

5:24 p.m. ET: Martinez said investigators don't know she did with the knife or the gun, but she got rid of them.

Crying for herself? She's not crying at all.

Wow, outright calling LaViolette a "LIAR!"

No objections!

Listening to Juan, he is describing a psychopath. She is dangerous. She would kill again.

He goes through the many things that Alyce said that were not true, one of them is the keynote speaker issue. #JodiArias

Juan exclaims that Alyce LaViolette is a liar and that is the bottom line! His voice is raised now. #JodiArias

Juan focuses on the defense experts now. "How do I love thee? Let me count the lies" he said. #JodiArias

Juan reminds that #JodiArias looked at each and every one of the jurors and lied about many things, injury to the finger being one of them

Juan goes through all of the lies briefly again and reiterates that #JodiArias premeditated the murder.

15 Minute BREAK!

5:47 p.m. ET: The judge has recessed court for 15 minutes.

5:44 p.m. ET: Martinez has now moved on to attacking defense expert Richard Samuals. He said Samuals said he rescored the tests multiple times, and he may have done that to augment the score.

5:41 p.m. ET: Martinez just called domestic violence expert Alyce LaViolette is a liar. LaViolette told the jury she had testified on behalf of a man in the past, but Martinez said that is simply not true. LaViolette has never testified on the behalf of a man before.

I've said this before, too. She simply cannot EVER be released!

When I was listening to Juan describe the killing, I had tears. Juan's voice got softer. Travis died a horrendous death and went through all that pain. He didn't have a chance.

She was taking pictures of another boyfriend in a shower. OMG he is lucky to be alive. That shower scene is her MO.

I only watched Dr Horn's testimony in total relatively recently. For me that in itself left NO DOUBT about how things went down.

You could say that Jodi was screwed by Dr Horn.... and not in a nice way!!
