Testimony in the Jodi Arias murder trial concludes on Wednesday. After four long months, the final witnesses for the defense and prosecution are expected to take the stand.
Judge Sherry Stephens, who has presided over the case since it began in January, said Wednesday is the absolute last day for testimony, and the proceedings will go as long it takes so that closing arguments can begin on Thursday, according to ABC News.
Arias' defense attorneys are expected to call Dr. Robert Geffner to the stand on Thursday. The defense will use Geffner to rebut testimony from state expert Janeen DeMarte, who testified two weeks ago that Arias has a borderline personality disorder.
The defense also plans to use Geffner to rebut Demarte's testimony that she did not believe Arias showed signs of being a victim of domestic abuse, an important part of the defense's claim that Arias acted in self-defense.
State prosecutor Juan Martinez is expected to call an expert witness, forensic psychologist Dr. Jill Hayes, later in the day to rebut Geffner's testimony.
Arias' attorneys claim she is a victim of domestic abuse and acted in self-defense when she stabbed ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander almost 30 times. She originally claimed that masked men broke into Alexander's home and killed him.
The Prosecution argues that Arias is a "scorned lover" and, after planning it, murdered Alexander in cold blood.
The 32-year old could face the death penalty if convicted. The trial resumes on Wednesday at noon.
