WATCH: Jodi Arias Laughs, Sings, Stands On Head In Bizarre, Just-Released Interrogation Room Video
Accused murderer Jodi Arias wrapped up her 18 days on the stand in her Arizona trial on Wednesday. But now, some shocking and disturbing video has emerged that could pile further doubt upon her not-guilty by way of self-defense plea.
Arias has insisted that while she did lie to police during her initial 2008 interrogation when she denied murdering boyfriend Travis Alexander, she is now telling the truth when she says she shot him in the head, stabbed him 27 times and slit his throat, in self-defense. The new video footage, obtained by Fox News from Arias’ June 2008 interrogation, shows the defendant participating in bizarre behavior for someone who had been questioned for four hours, often in tears.
After the prosecutor left the interrogation room, Arias can be seen laughing and admonishing herself in the third person for not wearing makeup. She breaks out in song, singing Dido‘s “Here With Me,” which ironically includes the lyric, “It might change my memory.” Finally, Arias is seen standing on her head against the wall. Shortly after, she was charged with the murder.
A psychologist acting as an expert witness for the defense argued Thursday that Arias suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder following the killing, which he said could affect her memory issues and even explain her actions in this video. But if this footage is admitted as evidence in the trial, what will the jury think?
