Is there a real possibility the infamous Jodi Arias case could be retried due to missing evidence and alleged misconduct?

For the first time in years, Jodi Arias is publicly addressing that question herself.

Arias was convicted of murdering her ex-boyfriend, Travis Alexander, in 2008 after stabbing and shooting him in the shower. She is currently serving a life sentence. Now, more than a decade later, Arias has begun writing about her case again — and this time, her focus is not prison life, but the integrity of the investigation and prosecution that put her behind bars.

Through her attorneys, Arias has filed a post-conviction relief request. From inside Perryville Prison, she responded to investigative reporter Tammy Rose regarding the possibility of an interview related to that filing.

Until now, Arias’ “Just Jodi” prison blog has largely avoided the details of her criminal case, focusing instead on daily life behind bars.

But a new post titled “Hello, 2026” marks a significant shift. In it, Arias makes serious allegations, claims misconduct, and states she is seeking new legal counsel to pursue them.

In the post, Arias accuses investigators and prosecutors of withholding, losing, or destroying exculpatory evidence. She specifically names former lead detective Steve Flores, now retired, and former prosecutor Juan Martinez.

“Important, exculpatory evidence in my case has been lost or destroyed,” Arias writes. “Where is my proof? I’m working on that.”

She also alleges her current legal representation has dismissed her concerns, claiming her attorneys minimize her claims while continuing to bill the county.

Adding to the controversy, both attorneys from Arias’ original trial were later disbarred. Former prosecutor Juan Martinez was disbarred for misconduct following the trial , and Arias’ defense attorney, Kirk Nurmi, was also disbarred after writing a book about his client while her case was still active — a move widely criticized as unethical.

Court documents also reference requests for information regarding a book Martinez allegedly began writing during Arias’ first trial, raising additional concerns about potential conflicts of interest.

So the question remains: do these claims — combined with documented misconduct surrounding key figures in the case— give Jodi Arias a legitimate path toward a new trial?

For now, the courts will decide whether her allegations warrant further review. But for the first time in years, Jodi Arias is no longer avoiding the case – she’s confronting it head-on.
