The live court session for Jodi Arias' first-degree murder trial will resume on Wednesday for the 2008 Arizona killing of her boyfriend Travis Alexander.

The trial can be watched via the free live stream below.

Enstars reported on April 12 that Arias has a Twitter account and has been using someone outside of jail to write tweets slamming Arizona prosecutor Juan Martinez and HLNTV's Nancy Grace. According to a report, Arias' offensive comments on Twitter were addressed by Martinez in court on Monday. The prosecutor announced that Arias has an account with the popular social media website and then asked that it be closed.

"I'm asking court to issue an order to force her to stop," Martinez told the court without the jury present, according to Radar Online. "She is discussing the case and she's a witness."

Arias' defense attorney Kirk Nurmi then requested a mistrial citing Martinez' prosecutorial conduct.

"What the media and public choose to believe I have no control over that," Nurmi told Judge Sherry Stephens. "The defendant does have control."

Judge Stephens denied Nurmi's request for a mistrial; she said she will not be taking any "action with regard to the defendant allegedly tweeting from jail." The judge reminded the court that Arias is already under the supervision of the Maricopa County Sheriff, who is unable to stop her from tweeting from behind bars because she has not been convicted.

Fox 10 News learned that Arias speaks to her friend Donovan Bering every night on the phone and tells her what to tweet to Arias' 18,000-plus followers. Bering has been sitting in the gallery during the three-month trial beside Arias' mother, Sandra Arias, and confirmed that she handles Jodi's Twitter account.

"She'll call and say 'I have a quote,'" Bering told the news station. "We'll talk about it. Sometimes she says 'let's tweet.' And then she'll say 'no let's not do it. "I think it's a way of her getting out her frustration, because she doesn't have a chance to say much."

Bering has tweeted, at Jodi's suggestion, several comments slamming Martinez.

"Hmm... Anger Management problems anyone?" reads Jodi's Twitter feed. "He who tries to establish his point by much yelling shows that his reasoning is weak."

Another post read, "Those afflicted with Little Man's Syndrome taint society's perception of genuinely good men who happen to be vertically challenged."

The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office admitted that they are aware of Jodi's Twitter account but cannot do anything to stop it because she has not been convicted.

"We do talk about the fact that Jodi seems to be able to reach out into the community in various ways and profit from her notoriety. We don't like it... but there is nothing we can do about it," said Lisa Allen, a Maricopa County Sheriff's Office spokesperson.

Arias' attorneys are also aware that she has a Twitter account and are not happy about it, according to the report.

Arias has been on trial for three months because autopsy records showed that she stabbed Alexander over 27 times, slit his throat from ear-to-ear and shot him in the head. According to police, she lied twice at first about how Alexander was killed and later admitted that she killed him in an act of self-defense. If she is convicted of the murder and the lies that she confessed to, she will likely face the death penalty and become the fourth woman in Arizona's history to die by lethal injection.

Watch Arias' murder trial live online when it resumes on Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. EST. Defense witness Dr. Alyce LaViolette, a domestic violence expert, is expected to return to the witness stand.
