More than a decade after she was convicted of the 2008 murder of her ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander, Jodi Arias seems to be seeking new counsel in an attempt to clear her name and challenge her conviction. Arias, 45, has been writing a blog called "Just Jodi" as she serves out her prison sentence. In her first post of 2026, she revealed her legal plans for the near future. She started off the post by going after the lead detective in her case, Steve Flores, and the former prosecutor from her trial, Juan Martinez, according to Arizona Family. "Important, exculpatory evidence in my case has been lost or destroyed. Where is my proof? I'm working on that. My lawyers yawn when I explain this. After all, I'm just the mentally ill woman they have to entertain for half an hour by phone every few weeks, after which time they bill the county," she wrote. Arias continued, "Detective Flores or some other henchman acting at Juan's behest likely destroyed or disappeared this exculpatory evidence. Maybe one of them will gain a conscience and admit to their tampering."

Over the years, I've helped enrich this person with a lot of my money, and happily so because they were amazing at their craft and I benefited. Recently, however, they used intel I shared with them against me, then avoided my calls to avoid having to explain themselves," Arias continued. "I'm stunned by this betrayal and mourning the end of this relationship." Arias went on to note that she has spoken to "eighteen lawyers" about the case. "There is a theme in my life of being manipulated, exploited, abused and deceived by attorneys," she said. "I have learned the painful way that they will, despite their oaths, put the interests of others above their client's, and that they should never be completely trusted." Arias said that she is "going to hire more attorneys" as she seeks a new trial. "This is not a Will I, won't I?, like my April memoir. This is a definite, immediate move I'm making while the January calendar is still in single digits," she said. "These attorneys won't be for PCR. Rather, they will act as advisors with an eye towards habeas." Habeas corpus, which is when authorities bring a detained person before a court to justify their imprisonment, takes place after a conviction is challenged and the attempt fails.

"For five years, PCR has been a watched pot that I'm beginning to realize will never boil," she concluded. "I have been naive to approach it the way I approached my case during the pretrial phase, which has been to let attorneys who didn't care as much as I do (through no fault of their own-nobody can care as much as I do) take the wheel while I buckle up and cruise through it, hoping to reach Destination Freedom." Arias was found guilty of first-degree murder of Alexander following a high-profile trial in 2013, and she was sentenced to life in prison without parole in 2015. During the trial, Arias admitted to killing Alexander out of self-defense, according to ABC News.
