Social media reacts to second hung jury in Jodi Arias retrial phase

PHOENIX — A jury again failed Thursday to reach a verdict in the Jodi Arias penalty phase retrial, meaning she will spend life in prison, pending a parole decision from Judge Sherry Stephens.

As soon as the verdict was read, the Twitterverse exploded with instant reactions to the second mistrial.

“Travis' sister walking outside the courthouse told a group of people “the real justice will be in the afterlife” for Jodi Arias.#jodiarias

Gaydos – It's too bad #JodiArias will live. Mistrial. Hung jury. She doesn't deserve it. Sad for the Travis Alexander family.

Several jurors give apologetic looks to the Alexander family as they leave the courtroom. #JodiArias
