Jodi Arias may get another chance to plead her case.
The Arizona Court of Appeals agreed to consider how numerous allegations of misconduct against Maricopa County prosecutor Juan Martinez could overturn Arias' conviction.
Arias was sentenced to life in prison in 2015 for murdering Travis Alexander in his Mesa home in 2008. The trial, full of tales of sex and violence, made headlines nationwide.
The Maricopa County Attorney's Office did not initially provide comment when contacted by The Arizona Republic.
