PHOENIX — The jury in Jodi Arias' trial was dismissed Thursday after failing to reach a unanimous decision on whether the woman they convicted of murdering her one-time boyfriend should be sentenced to life or death in a case that has captured headlines worldwide with its sex, lies, violence.
A new panel will be seated to try again to reach a decision — unless the prosecutor takes execution off the table agrees to a life sentence. The judge scheduled a retrial for July 18.
