Marinez points out the Jodis so called friends are people she lied to....

"A Good Friend" is NOT a mitigating factor.

5:14 p.m. ET: The attorneys are at a sidebar with the judge.

5:11 p.m. ET:

“Weren’t you present when she sat in that witness chair after taking an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and look each and every one of you in the eye and started to talk to you about the events leading up to the crime? Well most of you know what perjury is. That doesn’t mean she has been convicted – no one’s saying that. Just because you’re not convicted does not mean you have not engaged in criminal conduct,” said Martinez.

5:10 p.m. ET:

“She showed you pictures of her growing up. Mr. Alexander is no longer going to have any more yesterdays. He’s not going to have or be able to enjoy the experiences she told you she’s going to miss: holding a nephew, missing Christmas – she told you about all of that,” said Martinez.

5:09 p.m. ET: Martinez is going through every mitigation factor the defense has mention and explaining how they are irrelevant to the crime. The attorneys are at a sidebar with the judge.

5:06 p.m. ET: Martinez said Arias' age has nothing to do with her actions. The attorneys are now at a sidebar with judge.

“She wasn’t 18, she wasn’t 19 years old. She wasn’t anything like that. She had already experienced life,” said Martinez. “She had experimented sexually. She had friends, according to her. She had had a good family. She had been out in the world on her own…”

5:04 p.m. ET:

“It’s an entitlement road that they want you to travel when they talk to you about the fact that she’s a good artist. It doesn’t mean anything. All it means is, give her special or preferential treatment – that’s what that means,” said Martinez.

5:03 p.m. ET: Martinez said when the defense says she is a talented artist what they are really doing is asking that she get special treatment, because she has a skill.

5:01 p.m. ET: Martinez is reminding the jury that if they give Arias life in prison she could be eligible for parole after 25 years.

5:22 p.m. ET: Martinez says the mitigating factors aren't strong enough when you look at the horrific nature of the crime.

5:21 p.m. ET: "Don't most people want to improve their life? Don't most people want to make the best of their life? She's doing the bare minimum. The absolute bare minimum that everybody does," said Martinez.

5:19 p.m. ET: Martinez says there is no evidence of abuse but Arias likes to play the victim.

"Are there any medical reports to support it? Are there any police reports? Are there any 911 calls?" said Martinez.
