I think her ex boyfriend shooting him cutting its throat.

Is implying that she was the real victim in the relationship.

She's -- areas she took the stand for a third straight day in a courtroom in Phoenix.

She's facing possible death penalty for killing her -- back in 2008.

We have a photo of what the couple looked like back then you'll notice she was blonde at the time.

Areas admits stabbing and slashing Travis Alexander 27.

Times putting a bullet in his head in slitting its throat.

Prosecutors say -- did it because she was jealous that the boyfriend was getting together with another woman.

But she says it was self defense and today she claimed that during their relationship.

He was using her.

Are at -- -- he's been monitoring the trial Adam this they just wrapped up for the week what where does it stand.

We'll stand with her still on the on the stand -- you know the surprise was a couple of days ago that she took the stand and on her defense and now.

She's still there and she'll be back on Monday it would probably at least one more full day of the defense team.

-- the defense team is going very methodical very slow exploiting every single relationship she's had since high school now talking about Travis Alexander.

And at one point during testimony today she says she felt used after one of their very first encounters.

I began to sink -- into the Texas you can lending some -- my dad instilled in return any of those three attempts -- that that week.

I was beginning to think.

That I can be very stupid and haven't won and he wasn't interested in me anymore.

Again an offense providing details by using her -- and a testimony basically trying to paint him as being a bad guy -- A lot of that -- of that we heard a lot of testimony about her love life what does that accomplish.

Well I was extremely graphic -- pictures and in words up we're not gonna show here on the air but what together trying to do is the show that this man was not a proper -- single man.

That he would go out of his way to meet other women he would do things that most Mormon men would not do.

That he basically misled her.

And that thought is by court observers that this war eventually lead to what they contend again the defense contends that he might have beat her or threatened her and that's what led to her killing him.

Back in 2008 of course the prosecution said this was all -- jealous rage and that she kill them when she found him with another woman shepherd.

Adam Housley live -- -- thanks.
