"The Arias case may have caused further harm to the honest use of the domestic violence defense. Days ago she launched a t-shirt fundraiser ostensibly to raise money for “other survivors”. Really? Jodi Arias is not a “survivor” of domestic violence – there was not a shred of evidence, even in her own diaries, of being abused. She had no self-defense wounds. And while domestic violence victims often keep their abuse hidden, they do not steal a gun and travel across state lines to meet up with their abuser for a sexual tryst. They do not stab someone 27 times. A victim who is terrified and acting in self-defense will take drastic action to defend his or her life, but stabbing a “beloved” 27 times is something only an abuser does." http://www.politicususa.com/2013/05...ramsey-domestic-violence-confuses-people.html
"Jodi Arias’ claims that she killed Travis Alexander in self-defense have set actual domestic violence victims back ten years, according to one abuse survivor.
“Travis was the victim of domestic violence,” said Leah Pettyjohn, a domestic violence survivor. “He ended up the ultimate victim when his ex-girlfriend murdered him.”

"Jodi Arias fits criteria as the abuser in this relationship. It's all about power and control. Many of my male and female clients report things such as their ex- partner showing up to their home unannounced, texting to engage in sex, texting things such as "I love you," "No one will love you as much as I do," and "I need to see you right now." This is much the same as what was reported about Jodi Arias, she had the power over Travis in that relationship."
