The jurors in Jodi Arias' murder trial asked more than 100 questions to the defendant on Wednesday.
Accused of murdering her boyfriend Travis Alexander, the jury's questions were put to Arias by Judge Sherry Stephens. Arizona is one of three states that allow jurors to pose questions to witnesses after prosecution and defense lawyers finish their questioning, according to the Huffington Post.
Most of the questions from the jurors dealt with subjects pertaining to her sordid sex life and the murder. Jurors also asked Arias to describe the event of June 4, 2008, leading to Alexander's killing, a crime she has already admitted to, but in self-defense.
"It started where Travis was in the shower," Arias said. "I was taking photos of him [and] the camera slipped ... It fell onto the ground. He got very angry. He stepped out of the shower and lifted me up and body-slammed me ... I ran down the hallway ... into the closet. I grabbed the gun [and] ran out ... I just wanted him to stop, so I pointed the gun at him ... He lunged at me right around the time the gun went off. I didn't mean for it to go off ... I have no clear memories after that at all," Arias concluded and reported by the Huffington Post.
Many of her answers to questions pertaining to the murder left her dumbfounded, and unsure.
"After you shot him why not run out of the house?" "After the gun went off... He lunged at me... It's hard to describe the fear... I really thought he had intentions to kill me... I don't remember any specifics of what happened after that point," Arias said.
Why no memory of killing Travis?
"I can't explain why my mind did what it did ... I really don't know," Arias said.
The jurors' questions and Arias' answers may prove pivotal to her fate. Arias faces the death penalty if convicted. The trial resumes on Thursday with additional juror questions.
