Selecting a jury in the penalty retrial of convicted murderer Jodi Arias has been easier than many first anticipated. Arias was found guilty of murdering her on-again/off-again boyfriend Travis Alexander in June 2008. Arias changed her story several times while on trial, but what was clear was that stabbing Alexander 30 times, slitting his throat and then shooting the victim seemed like a display of overkill rather than self-defense. Jurors originally agreed and convicted Arias, but then the case went sideways during the first penalty phase. Some 300 potential jurors were interviewed for the second shot at a penalty phase in Arias's case, and the official panel is expected to be seated Tuesday, Oct. 21. Her defense team is fighting to get the death penalty off the table.
