I just heard on Dr. Drew that the jury has to agree 12 - 0 on the sentence and if they can't, they bring in a whole new jury just for the penalty phase! Once the aggravation part is over and each side argues whether or not the murder was cruel, apparently that is to inform the sentencing one way or another. I'm not sure about that but otherwise, why have this aggravation day tomorrow? I'm okay with her rotting in jail forever or getting the needle - neither one is going to allow Miss Arias to live a life. Ordering snacks, eating dirt cheap food meal after meal, sketching or reading and exercising or whatever - it's all the same old same old day after day after day after day for the rest of her days. Talk about 4 walls closing in. A mind like hers - that will drive her nuts. Still, I think she deserves death if anybody ever does. If they don't needle her, this jury needs to apologize to other inmates who've been put to death by the State. Slaughter a guy like a pig in his very own home for breaking up with you and no death sentence??????
