On March 14, 2013, the Jodi Arias murder trial will resume as the prosecution tries to discredit her testimony and prove she did not kill Ariz. man Travis Alexander in self-defense, but instead, murdered him in cold blood. As the proceedings continue, a number of media outlets, including AZFamily.com are streaming the trial live when court is in session.
On Wednesday, Arias took the witness stand for the 18th day and was challenged by prosecutor Juan Martinez regarding her story.

Arias has testified that prior to the confrontation that led to Alexander’s death, the two had sex and were taking nude photos of one another. She alleged they began arguing and she was forced to defend herself as he became more and more aggressive.

The defense has attempted to paint Alexander as a sexual deviant, and in prior testimony, Arias claimed she once walked in on him as he sat in his bedroom masturbating to the photo of a young boy.
She also testified she believed at times Alexander used her for his own sexual gratification, making her feel like a prostitute.
