HLN After Dark re-enacts Arias killing
Forensic psychologist Richard Samuels testified last week that Jodi Arias has shown signs of an anxiety disorder people suffer from after experiencing a traumatic event: Post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD.
“What it means is that an individual has a stress-related disorder that involves certain characteristics that are seen over and over again in people that are similarly diagnosed. There may be a sense of detachment. There may be emotional blunting. There may be intrusive thoughts,” said Samuels. Read about Samuels' testimony from Tuesday here.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, PTSD is a type of anxiety disorder that can occur after a traumatic event; it can develop following events such as war, rape, assault, and domestic abuse.
Throughout the show, HLN's legal experts will argue all sides of the issue in front of a jury of in-studio guests and you at home. Based on the facts and evidence presented by both sides, the in-studio jury will present a verdict of guilty or not guilty at the end of the show.
