Jodi Arias is pulling out all the stops in her quest to keep her liberty, and more importantly, her life, as she faces a possible death sentence if convicted of the brutal murder of her ex-boyfriend, Travis Alexander, but she's fighting a losing battle, according to veteran HLN host Nancy Grace, who tells Breaking Celebrity News exclusively that she's confident the jury will not buy her defense and will find her guilty!

“There is no way around a murder conviction for Jodi,” the acid-tongued former prosecutor predicts.

“In my opinion the facts have proven that this is Murder 1. BUT, if they feel pity for her they may give her Murder 2. I think that they will give her murder one though, but with no death penalty.”

As we previously reported, Grace, who was in the Phoenix, Arizona courtroom last week to hear the defense present their argument that Arias was acting in self-defense when she shot the 30-year-old motivational speaker in the face, slit his throat and stabbed him 27 times, broke the bombshell that Jodi has a secret lesbian lover behind bars - proving, legal expert Matt Zarrell claimed in an interview HLN, that the 32-year-old has the ability to “charm herself into any relationship. She has charmed herself into yet another relationship, but this time it is with the same sex, with a female.”

Grace says that the revelation of the jailhouse girlfriend, combined with several of the defense witnesses' testimonies that have inadvertently proven be more detrimental than beneficial to Arias' case, is helping bolster the prosecution’s argument that Jodi is a jealous and obsessive cold blooded killer who is willing to use her sexuality to manipulate people in order to achieve her dreams, no matter what the cost.
