What happened to the law being the law and lawyers and Judges going by how the law is written instead of how some think the law should be?
Jodi Arias is NOT supposed to be having a retrial of her First Degree Murder verdict. The trial that is supposed to start on September 29, 2014 is supposed to be a trial based on the sentencing phase and nothing more than that. If you rewrite the law for one murderer/criminal, then you should have to for ALL of them. I think that many people would agree that Jodi Arias should NOT be allowed to present anything other than mitigating factors that she thinks will get her out of being sentenced to death row and that anything else that she or anyone else tries to use should be thrown out. Anything other than using "mitigating factors" to plea for a lessor sentence is supposed to be what appeals are for.
