- 9:17questions even voluntarily answer them
- 9:19if you want okay is that cool yeah
- 9:25thank you
- 9:27there was some question about you being
- 9:32well let's start with this
- 9:34what have you been up to since um
- 9:37since Travis is death what have you been
- 9:41doing
- 9:43um
- 9:44well I've been working
- 9:46I've been really working in prepaid
- 9:47legal there's not a whole lot here in
- 9:50this Marketplace which is it's kind of
- 9:53small here it's small here and really
- 9:54that could be seen as an opportunity
- 9:57rather than a hint
- 9:59because that just means the market is
- 10:01untapped in a large way so I could have
- 10:04if I wanted to but
- 10:06I have I'm kind of like a deer in the
- 10:07headlights when it comes to previous
- 10:09ly I kind of just have a fear of just
- 10:11approaching people
- 10:13um
- 10:14so I've been working at a Mexican
- 10:15restaurant in the north end of town
- 10:18um
- 10:20I've been
- 10:24I've been kind of in a daze at least for
- 10:26the first few weeks
- 10:29um
- 10:31like everybody you know yeah
- 10:34um I know that a lot of people have been
- 10:36posting on Facebook really nice things
- 10:39you know and memories and at one point I
- 10:41was like well maybe I should do that so
- 10:43I posted this thing and
- 10:44I said all my memories and
- 10:47I realized looking back on it that it
- 10:49was kind of It kind of sounded immature
- 10:50it's more like my dear Travis kind of
- 10:52letter
- 10:53and so I took it down because it's
- 10:55personal yeah some of it was detailed a
- 10:58little bit more personal not too
- 10:59personal nothing inappropriate just um
- 11:03I just
- 11:04felt funny I think because I'm a
- 11:06photographer I tend to communicate more
- 11:08into pictures so I posted a ton of
- 11:10pictures that I have of him and I have a
- 11:13ton more that I just can't access right
- 11:15now
- 11:16and videos and things that I know as
- 11:18family would want but
- 11:20um
- 11:22so I posted pictures and I took that
- 11:24down and I posted something last week
- 11:26but other than that I've been on
- 11:28Facebook in Myspace a lot looking at his
- 11:30profile looking at his pictures reading
- 11:33things about his obituaries and
- 11:38any news updates and you know there's
- 11:40legacy.com where you can write something
- 11:43about it yeah
- 11:45yeah
- 11:45um I've seen a lot of those postings
- 11:49um
- 11:50I didn't realize until I actually spoke
- 11:53with Ryan Burns
- 11:55he he told the guy that's in Utah and
- 11:58we've been talking a lot we try not to
- 11:59talk about that because it's kind of
- 12:00like and plus Travis is my ex-boyfriend
- 12:02but at the same time he's my friend so
- 12:04while I'm warning my friend how do you
- 12:06talk to your new potential possible
- 12:08Maybe person that you might start dating
- 12:10about your friend even though he was
- 12:12your ex-boyfriend so it's kind of a gray
- 12:13area I try not to talk about him too
- 12:15much but he comes up a lot
- 12:18um
- 12:20and it was through him that I learned
- 12:22that he said you know if you come out to
- 12:23Utah things are really weird because
- 12:24everyone is everyone thinks that you
- 12:26could have had
- 12:27um and I'm talking to a lot of people
- 12:29and
- 12:31everybody's pointing at a finger at you
- 12:33I know you know everybody is saying I
- 12:37don't understand what happened to Travis
- 12:39I don't know who killed him
- 12:42but you need to look at Jody
- 12:45and sometimes the simplest
- 12:48answers
- 12:49are the correct ones
- 12:51and that's one of the reasons I started
- 12:53looking at you a little bit closer
- 12:56and over the last month or so I
- 13:01I've gotten into Travis's lives
- 13:03talk to all his friends his family
- 13:06I got a really good understanding of who
- 13:08he is now
- 13:10and
- 13:12I got a very good understanding of your
- 13:14relationship with him
- 13:16and
- 13:18kind of just putting two and two
- 13:19together
- 13:21well and in it and it kind of matches
- 13:24so one of the reasons I'm here is to
- 13:26talk to you and figure out what was
- 13:29going on between you two what I know the
- 13:31relationship that you guys had was of
- 13:33convenience sometimes
- 13:36obviously you weren't boyfriend
- 13:37girlfriend anymore
- 13:39but you were still
- 13:40having a sexual relationship
- 13:43which
- 13:44doesn't really know about that
- 13:47curious no this family doesn't know
- 13:49anything
- 13:58he was
- 14:00um well I'm sure if Travis could speak
- 14:02right now he wouldn't care what people
- 14:03thought about him
- 14:05because they knew who he was okay a
- 14:08sexual relationship here or there
- 14:10because the fact he was a member of the
- 14:12church it really doesn't matter
- 14:14whole range of things
- 14:25we prayed about it didn't work or we
- 14:28didn't stick to our you know our guns on
- 14:30it and once I'm A girlfriend of mine
- 14:33just said why don't you just go to your
- 14:34bishop and talk and ask Travis the same
- 14:36and I talked to him about it he got
- 14:37really angry he said I've already had
- 14:39problems with this in the past I'm
- 14:41embarrassed by it I don't want to go to
- 14:42my Bishop
- 14:43and so we just kind of stopped for like
- 14:46a few weeks and then that must have been
- 14:48I think it was August and then it just
- 14:50resumed
- 14:52well the way Travis thought by you know
- 14:54getting into his head and everything
- 14:56that he's written his journals and
- 14:59um everything I found out about him
- 15:01he he truly had feelings for you
- 15:05and for some reason
- 15:08he felt that the relationship between
- 15:09you and him was somewhat unhealthy but
- 15:13he couldn't stop it
- 15:15and I assume that's probably maybe the
- 15:19same way you felt about him or it's
- 15:21maybe you didn't understand why he
- 15:23didn't believe it was healthy no I I
- 15:26didn't think it was healthy
- 15:27healthy actually at least and probably
- 15:28emotionally
- 15:30mostly spiritually and I think that kind
- 15:32of wants you to have something that's
- 15:33not healthy spiritually it filters
- 15:35through all aspects of your life
- 15:37um it's
- 15:38it's one of the main it's one like there
- 15:40were three main reasons I moved back to
- 15:42yurica and one was I was in financial
- 15:43dires trades
- 15:45um I was not getting ahead it was not
- 15:48I just things were not working
- 15:49everything in Arizona was like except
- 15:52for the wonderful friends that I made in
- 15:53my ward
- 15:54um and the opportunity it's like the
- 15:56Mormon land of opportunity there which
- 15:58is awesome but except for all that like
- 16:00every sign was pointing just just go you
- 16:03know you know I wasn't able to hold a
- 16:05job and that had never happened before
- 16:08um
- 16:09it you know too much of my
- 16:12my nightlife can was was about him you
- 16:15know he would text me and hey I'm
- 16:17getting sleepy dot dot dot is a bunch of
- 16:19Z's and that was his code to like come
- 16:23on over kind of thing
- 16:24your coast is clear you know
- 16:27so um you know and that was just I lived
- 16:30five minutes away 10 maybe 10 depending
- 16:33and it was just too convenient and too
- 16:34easy and it was fun and we had fun when
- 16:36we were together and so it wasn't
- 16:38healthy and I totally agree with that
- 16:40um so that was one of the re well
- 16:42financially I wasn't doing well I missed
- 16:44my family I moved away
- 16:46um shortly after high school and I come
- 16:48back to visit but I realized over the
- 16:49years I've missed out on a lot of things
- 16:51record sister
- 16:53missed out on just uh
- 16:56their karate or their baseball or
- 16:59cheerleading or
- 17:02whatever and um and my dad is not doing
- 17:05well
- 17:06he doesn't think he has very long to
- 17:08live but he always says that
- 17:10for like a decade he's still here thank
- 17:12goodness
- 17:14um my grandparents aren't getting any
- 17:15younger and I just have an awesome
- 17:17family
- 17:19and I wanted to be able to just
- 17:21be here for a little bit and regroup
- 17:23financially
- 17:25I owe my parents a lot of money and I
- 17:27have my grandparents a lot of money and
- 17:29I owe friends money I owe
- 17:32I know my um
- 17:34the guy that I bought a house with I owe
- 17:36him a lot of money he doesn't ask me for
- 17:38it but I intend to pay him back because
- 17:40he really footed the bill in the
- 17:42mortgage for a few months
- 17:45um
- 17:46and the third reason and I like to put
- 17:48this third because I like to think that
- 17:50second of those reasons I would have
- 17:52been strong enough somehow but the third
- 17:53reason was to put a distance a physical
- 17:56distance between Travis and I because
- 17:58I know that he really liked Mimi and he
- 18:00said he did
- 18:02um
- 18:04he just
- 18:05I kind of felt guilty I mean I know they
- 18:08weren't dating but I just felt guilty
- 18:09somehow and I didn't know Ryan at the
- 18:12time
- 18:13I met him in March at in Oklahoma City
- 18:16and it was just brief and I remember
- 18:17seeing him and saying oh I really want
- 18:19to go say hi to him but he was
- 18:21surrounded by people and it was he was
- 18:23kind of unapproachable
- 18:24and he says he remembers meeting me too
- 18:26and it wasn't until Zion my friend
- 18:31texted me and you know I think I told
- 18:33you that and this is all after business
- 18:37everything was all over sorry the
- 18:40timeline we broke I well it was kind of
- 18:43a mutual thing but I I sort of more
- 18:45broke up with him
- 18:47um and I it was hard to do because I
- 18:49really loved him but I just realized
- 18:51that without trust you can't have
- 18:53anything and I had violated him is that
- 18:55the main reason you guys broke up is to
- 18:57trust the trust I think that there's not
- 19:00not that the relationship was unhealthy
- 19:02because of the sexual activity
- 19:04possibility but just that you guys
- 19:06couldn't trust each other I think that
- 19:08and this doesn't make it right I think
- 19:10that you know being a convert you know I
- 19:13I've I've been I've had a couple of
- 19:16serious relationships before where I was
- 19:17where I was intimate with a few people
- 19:19and
- 19:22it's kind of silly but I used to always
- 19:24joke that um regardless of what the
- 19:28Bible says and yes I'm Christian I just
- 19:29live my life by the Ten Commandments and
- 19:31that's my those are my rules
- 19:33you know Thou shalt not this or that but
- 19:36it doesn't say thou shalt in the morning
- 19:37so I just used to joke about that
- 19:40it's a bad philosophy
- 19:42um I think that with Travis
- 19:45um there was part there was a part of me
- 19:47that felt really guilty because there
- 19:48was something inside that thought you're
- 19:50you know this is nice for instant
- 19:52gratification but you're destroying what
- 19:54you could have
- 19:55with Travis and that's why we we did
- 19:58pray about it I remember we knelt by his
- 19:59bed once and um
- 20:02and
- 20:04surprisingly he suggested it normally
- 20:07you know we would I would suggest that
- 20:09we pray before we go on a trip or before
- 20:10we eat if we're alone it was kind of
- 20:12unusual for him huh
- 20:14yeah because he was very resistant to
- 20:16prayer with me I mean I think in church
- 20:19it would find and I feel it maybe
- 20:20because
- 20:22we were driving away this Ferry
- 20:24constantly
- 20:26um
- 20:27or maybe he felt that by inviting the
- 20:29spirit he would feel guilty about later
- 20:31on in the evening or I don't know what
- 20:33the deal was or the excuse he used was
- 20:35because I'm a convert I need more
- 20:37practice saying prayers he's like so I'd
- 20:39say will you State Fair he's like why
- 20:41don't you say a prayer
- 20:42um why don't you say a prayer why don't
- 20:43you say a prayer so we go back and forth
- 20:45and
- 20:46I don't know until I don't know it's
- 20:48just
- 20:49one time when I was on a trip at
- 20:51Havasupai we were all getting on the
- 20:53road and
- 20:54I think Dan it was with Dan Freeman and
- 20:56his sister Desiree and they were all
- 20:58like um Jody will you say a prayer and I
- 21:00said sure and Travis was like
- 21:04anyway I didn't want to argue with them
- 21:06so
- 21:08um anyway what was I saying well he's um
- 21:13you know the whole trust issue keeps
- 21:15coming back into my mind yeah he was he
- 21:20was a big time flirt and that's the one
- 21:22thing everybody says about him he flirts
- 21:24a lot
- 21:25um does it mean anything by it no not
- 21:28really that's just who he is
- 21:31um he did have you know girlfriends here
- 21:33there and he was at a point in his life
- 21:35where he wanted to really start settling
- 21:38down
- 21:39it felt like
- 21:41he needed to kind of grow up
- 21:44I'll become a husband become a father
- 21:46you know those at that time had come and
- 21:48he felt that that time had come and gone
- 21:52and he was falling behind he told me
- 21:54that too he said he felt um I think his
- 21:57time was running out and I
- 21:58told him
- 22:00that you know despite the fact that he's
- 22:02not going to be in a singles War very
- 22:03much longer he still has a lot of
- 22:05options he's still a very eligible
- 22:07bachelor
- 22:08and he he just didn't see it that way
- 22:10he's like you don't understand he's like
- 22:11that might be true but my chances are
- 22:13severely reduced once I turn 31 . it was
- 22:16like this particular time finding a good
- 22:19Mormon girl you know was
- 22:22difficult because in that church you
- 22:25know that
- 22:27lots of girls to get married early 20s
- 22:29yeah you know he said he didn't want to
- 22:32marry a girl and early 20s because
- 22:34he said that he noticed a lot of pattern
- 22:36in the church with girls that married
- 22:37between 19 and 24 so speak would
- 22:41would you know they'd start having
- 22:43babies and growing their family and
- 22:46then they would look at their single
- 22:47girlfriends who are still having fun
- 22:49with no responsibilities and they would
- 22:50regret getting married and I think if
- 22:52you're strong in a church that's not so
- 22:53much a problem but
- 22:55it depends on who you surround yourself
- 22:57with too you surround yourself with the
- 22:59right people you know
- 23:01the story but you know that's where he
- 23:04was and did you guys ever discuss
- 23:07possibly getting married or anything
- 23:09when we were dating we did okay once we
- 23:12broke up
- 23:13he brought it up if he actually proposed
- 23:16to me
- 23:17a lot of times but he wasn't serious
- 23:20um I think he was he was serious once
- 23:23and it was when we broke up
- 23:25and that was really hard because we were
- 23:27on the phone and it was just like none
- 23:29of that stuff should be done on the
- 23:31phone anyway but I was hundreds of miles
- 23:33away
- 23:34and um I told him that I loved him we
- 23:36didn't say I love you during our
- 23:37relationship but we said it afterwards
- 23:39it was weird
- 23:41um I said you know
- 23:43this isn't breaking up with him on the
- 23:46phone wasn't really the way I wanted to
- 23:48do it but it was kind of a situation
- 23:50that had just come to a
- 23:54this couldn't be more
- 23:56let's move to after the breakup
- 23:59okay
- 24:00what uh
- 24:03what kept you and Mesa at that point
- 24:08I actually moved to Mesa a few weeks
- 24:10after we broke up really I mean as far
- 24:13as the timeline goes but I mean if you
- 24:16want to call it our official breakup
- 24:18shortly thereafter it's like we were
- 24:20still singing so you guys were seeing
- 24:22each other but
- 24:23was a long distance type relationship it
- 24:25was always long distance when we were
- 24:27officially dating we didn't we dated we
- 24:29dated from about the beginning of
- 24:30February to about the end of June
- 24:33February
- 24:34marching about five months to
- 24:37television 2007 you guys broke up and
- 24:40and they came up to Mesa
- 24:43um
- 24:43yeah
- 24:44the sort of most people when they break
- 24:47up they probably go I know and it was
- 24:50and we plans were already in order for
- 24:52me to move there
- 24:54um I was already speaking with a friend
- 24:55who was you know
- 24:58it was going to be her roommate and I
- 25:00was her roommate for a short time
- 25:05flighty
- 25:06it's a great girl though
- 25:08um
- 25:10I talked to Travis about maybe going to
- 25:12Southern California instead
- 25:14and he's really
- 25:17he's he's really
- 25:21persuasive and persuade you to stay
- 25:23there Mesa he's he kind of was playing
- 25:26up all the advantages if I did come to
- 25:28Mesa and if I did you know um
- 25:32he said you know it's it's a great place
- 25:34we could still see each other and hang
- 25:36out on occasion
- 25:38this church is very strong you know
- 25:41you'll make a lot of friends and I
- 25:43already knew all this stuff prior
- 25:44because I we talked about that
- 25:48um
- 25:49you know and so I went ahead and just
- 25:51made the move it sounded at the time
- 25:53like a good idea
- 25:55can you guys continue to kind of see
- 25:57each other at that time yeah at the time
- 25:59I would sort of living more across town
- 26:00over by greenfield do you know where
- 26:02that is it was a Greenfield near
- 26:04Broadway Greenfield Broadway were the
- 26:06nearest cross streets and that's where
- 26:07the girl that I was originally talking
- 26:09with I moved in with her that's kind of
- 26:12far from yeah yeah
- 26:15um the thing about her and and just to
- 26:17give you a background of why I moved
- 26:19suddenly
- 26:20um she
- 26:22approached me the weekend after I got
- 26:24there and said hey she knocked on my
- 26:25door can I talk to you for a second I
- 26:26said sure and she moved in with her
- 26:28boyfriend
- 26:29um and they were engaged
- 26:32you said hey I just wanted to let you
- 26:33know that Scott and I went to Vegas last
- 26:34weekend to tie the knot and I was like
- 26:36really she's like yeah we've told anyone
- 26:38but we didn't want to live in sin so and
- 26:40she had already been sealed in the
- 26:42temple once and was waiting for her
- 26:43cancel for her too
- 26:45yeah to be careful so they were going to
- 26:48have a civil wedding um
- 26:50and they did that the following the
- 26:52following weekend she told me that on a
- 26:56Monday or Tuesday it was the beginning
- 26:57of the week and she said the reason I'm
- 26:59telling you that is because I'm getting
- 27:01married this weekend and I have to go
- 27:03out of town a few days ahead of Scott
- 27:04you know make arrangements and now that
- 27:07he's a married man we don't feel it's
- 27:08right that you'll be here in the house
- 27:10she's like I don't want to inconvenience
- 27:11you but is there any way you could stay
- 27:13with somebody else or just find another
- 27:14place the time I was waiting on a house
- 27:17in Gilbert because I already knew they
- 27:19were getting married so it's kind of
- 27:20looking anyway and there was a great
- 27:21girl named Brenda and she was waiting on
- 27:24her keys for the mortgage to go through
- 27:25and it was a great Ward it was a great
- 27:26house it was brand new
- 27:29um construction and all that was really
- 27:30nice but she didn't get her keys for
- 27:32months and months I think she's in the
- 27:34house now but I don't know I haven't
- 27:35talked to her
- 27:36um so I scrambled I went to The
- 27:39Institute I wrote down a bunch of phone
- 27:41numbers I called them all a lot of them
- 27:42I got voicemails
- 27:44um one girl that answered her name was
- 27:46Tiffany and she knew Travis and she was
- 27:48at his services in Arizona and
- 27:52we've just remained friends sort of like
- 27:54on MySpace and Facebook and that kind of
- 27:56thing but she said hey sorry that's not
- 27:58dated posting I forgot to take it down
- 27:59but go to this website so ldshousing.net
- 28:01I went there I made three phone calls
- 28:04for the places that were within my price
- 28:06range I didn't think to look where they
- 28:08were the one girl that called me back
- 28:10her name is Shannon derricott she said
- 28:11here's my place here's the directions go
- 28:13ahead and go out and come see the house
- 28:15it was available so we did
- 28:18go ahead you have to get that no okay
- 28:22um so I moved out there and when Travis
- 28:24found out it was so close to him he
- 28:25freaked out about it
- 28:27and I made sure to check that it wasn't
- 28:29that that we wouldn't be in the same
- 28:32ward and it was within his word
- 28:33boundaries but it was also within
- 28:34another single sword boundary so of
- 28:36course I'm gonna go the other one
- 28:37because it would just be kind of weird I
- 28:39mean I didn't know about him and Lisa at
- 28:43first so I I don't know if they were
- 28:46even dating at that time I don't know
- 28:47what their whole timeline was
- 28:50um but it still would have been weird
- 28:51and it wouldn't have made traffic during
- 28:53that time that he was seeing Lisa did
- 28:56you continue to see him as well yeah and
- 28:58I didn't know that he was seeing her
- 29:00but he would call you and have you come
- 29:02home yeah I know there was a time when
- 29:04you I guess were cleaning his house too
- 29:06for for extra money or something yeah I
- 29:08hired you yeah I did that no because he
- 29:11knew that I was struggling and he
- 29:13he's like I've been doing the math and
- 29:14that happened pretty much right on I
- 29:16knew that started that started in August
- 29:18he's like I've done the math and I feel
- 29:20that I can be more protective
- 29:22my time is more valuable than x amount
- 29:24of dollars per hour so why don't I pay
- 29:26you this per hour and I'll work and you
- 29:28can make a little bit of money
- 29:30so that kind of makes sense so that was
- 29:32around the same time time frame was uh
- 29:34the move it was like a few weeks after
- 29:36the move I was still living in
- 29:39with Rachel over on Greenfield
- 29:42before when that started and he sent me
- 29:45this picture and he's like this is your
- 29:47uniform habit by Friday or Thursday or
- 29:49whatever and it was this French faint
- 29:51thing I was like no yeah let's have
- 29:53typical yeah like I said he's a very
- 29:56flirty guy and he is
- 29:59now obviously the racial release or um
- 30:03at least the relationship didn't work
- 30:06out and
- 30:07um
- 30:08and then it was a time period he really
- 30:10wasn't seeing anybody and then Mimi came
- 30:12into the picture
- 30:14um what did you think about her I didn't
- 30:16know a lot about her she seems like a
- 30:18really nice girl he showed me her
- 30:19picture on Facebook you know I don't
- 30:21think she had a lot of pictures on there
- 30:24um
- 30:24he said that he's not sure why but he's
- 30:29pretty sure that she could be it
- 30:33um I didn't find out about this
- 30:35conversation you had face to face with
- 30:36him yeah yeah it was in his room
- 30:39um
- 30:39and he had his laptop
- 30:43I didn't find out about Lisa until after
- 30:45we broke we had this conversation where
- 30:47we decided oh just come clean
- 30:50um and that was quite a conversation
- 30:53um because I was never Unfaithful but
- 30:56there you know when we started dating
- 30:58that timeline around February
- 31:00the reason I remember February is
- 31:02because he had told me in December you
- 31:04know go date other people kind of
- 31:07and so I did
- 31:09um it was January 10th that I went on a
- 31:11date with um my friend John for lunch we
- 31:15just went out and have sushi nothing
- 31:16romantic happened we didn't hold hands
- 31:18we didn't kiss we think we had it
- 31:20and I guess it was considered a day
- 31:21because he asked me and I accepted any
- 31:23paid for it
- 31:25um and that was in Pasadena yeah if you
- 31:27pay for it today yeah that was in
- 31:29Pasadena and the following evening I
- 31:31went out with my friend Abe and we he
- 31:34drinks and he just got like
- 31:37Maker's Mark I think as far as this
- 31:39drink and I got cranberry juice and we
- 31:41just talked forever about it he talked
- 31:43about politics which is all these guys
- 31:44in the Marine Corps or something they
- 31:45were both in prepaid legal
- 31:47um John Dixon is not in group illegal
- 31:49anymore he's moved on to other Ventures
- 31:50no but the uh the Marine Corps are they
- 31:52in the service at all okay Abe is kind
- 31:55of he's a little bit older he's just
- 31:57sort of businessman okay has a
- 31:59background in
- 32:00whatever production and this is during
- 32:02the time that you guys were broken up or
- 32:04visual kind of going I'm sorry this is
- 32:06before we started dating okay the reason
- 32:08I say this is because he told me a few
- 32:10times he told me during that
- 32:11conversation too that he's like you seem
- 32:13to have a very convenient timeline for
- 32:14when we started dating so I used to ask
- 32:16him like when did we actually start
- 32:17dating because I figured if we ever made
- 32:19it to a year we might as well
- 32:22um and he's like I'm not really sure and
- 32:24the reason I think it was February 2nd
- 32:27is because we
- 32:29do you know of Chris and Scott Hughes
- 32:31okay
- 32:33um I used to spend a lot of time at
- 32:35their house
- 32:37they're a wonderful family and uh
- 32:40sky was she she's somebody that I really
- 32:44opened up to
- 32:45and you know
- 32:47um I told her a little bit how I just
- 32:49wasn't sure about Travis at the time and
- 32:51and I wasn't sure what was going on
- 32:53there and she wrote in this long letter
- 32:55or she didn't write a letter Travis
- 32:57wrote the letter but she um kind of got
- 32:59on his case
- 33:01and and I was and they told me all kinds
- 33:03of things about Travis that I wasn't
- 33:06aware of what kind of stuff are you
- 33:08talking about
- 33:09um
- 33:12they said if I don't get away from
- 33:14Travis I'm gonna become just like Deanna
- 33:16which is his other ex-girlfriend yeah
- 33:19um
- 33:21you know do you want to waste six years
- 33:23of your life waiting for him
- 33:25um because he can't come in he's still
- 33:28tells Deanna I love you and I was like
- 33:29what you know yeah and I truly believe
- 33:32he he does love herself
- 33:37he's what you call a player
- 33:39you know what that means
- 33:42he he kind of he doesn't fools girls
- 33:45yeah
- 33:47but he can't make a commitment
- 33:49portrays himself to be a certain way
- 33:53but he's really not
- 33:56he portrays himself to have a lot of
- 34:00money he's got a lot of things he told
- 34:02me the first night that I
- 34:04said the first night that I met him
- 34:06it was the second I was at the MGM Grand
- 34:08invited me to this executive director
- 34:10banquet
- 34:11and you know he was kind of talking
- 34:13about what his earnings were the last
- 34:15year and how he almost made his six
- 34:17figures and that kind of thing and then
- 34:19he leans in and he goes in this business
- 34:20you have to show off your money a little
- 34:22bit and then prepaid legal it is people
- 34:24want to see that you're actually being
- 34:25successful so
- 34:26you know he's done a good job it's about
- 34:28making money yeah
- 34:31um anyway what was I saying
- 34:33it says Kristen sky or just by the end
- 34:36of the conversation they started calling
- 34:37me Deanna
- 34:38and I was just like shocked I didn't
- 34:40want to I certainly the last thing I
- 34:42wanted how did you feel about that
- 34:44um my biggest concern was losing respect
- 34:47in their eyes because I really really
- 34:49looked up to them
- 34:51and I thought I would have laughed it
- 34:53off and I thought it was kind of funny
- 34:54but my big but I feared inside that I
- 34:56was losing that respect
- 34:59um so when I talked to him next I was
- 35:02like uh you know what do I do what do I
- 35:04say and he ended up riding this
- 35:06letter just died saying I just got off
- 35:09the phone with a very reluctant to talk
- 35:10to me Jody you know
- 35:12and she wrote back
- 35:15saying something to the effect like you
- 35:17know I wouldn't want my sister to date
- 35:18you
- 35:20um
- 35:21why do you kiss Jody in the dark and
- 35:22then act like you guys aren't even
- 35:23together in the daytime things like that
- 35:26that's a good statement
- 35:28because
- 35:29that kind of sums up the relationship
- 35:31that you have with him
- 35:33it seems like especially she liked you
- 35:35he loved you
- 35:37he wanted to be with you but he was
- 35:41he was reluctant to make a
- 35:43commitment first off
- 35:45and truly he didn't think that you were
- 35:47marriage material
- 35:49and I don't know why not I mean I see
- 35:52you you're you're you're you're a
- 35:53wonderful girl you're
- 35:55you know you're struggling you're trying
- 35:57to to make your way through life and I
- 36:00don't see why you guys couldn't have
- 36:01made it I think we're just we have we
- 36:04have very many different philosophies in
- 36:06a lot of ways
- 36:08um we would argue about the dumbest
- 36:10things and like he would just want me to
- 36:12admit that he was right and I would
- 36:14happily do that it's a man thing that's
- 36:16and I would if I should have just known
- 36:19better and admitted that I eventually
- 36:20learned how to argue with Travis she's
- 36:22like okay
- 36:24fine yeah eventually that's what it what
- 36:26I began to do with him it's like the
- 36:27more I just agree with him the sooner
- 36:29the argument gets over the sooner we can
- 36:30make up and the makeup was always great
- 36:33um but um there are so many times I just
- 36:36couldn't wrap my mind around what he
- 36:38would I could but but I would try to get
- 36:40him to do the same for me like there was
- 36:41a time when I broke down on the way to
- 36:43La once when I was going to watch Chris
- 36:44Hughes do a train
- 36:46um and this was January
- 36:48mid-January maybe of 2007 and my my car
- 36:52got a flat tire so I had at the time
- 36:54roadside assistance because my car was
- 36:55still under warranty and they pulled
- 36:57they went to take the car in to change
- 36:59the tire and realized that when they
- 37:00sold me the car they didn't give me the
- 37:01wheel lock key so you know for
- 37:04anti-theft there was Wheelock so I had
- 37:05to get a hotel room I had to get my car
- 37:07towed it was a big nightmare
- 37:09um and I was kind of hungry it was
- 37:10dinner time it was 7 38 and it was dark
- 37:13because it was January
- 37:15um the tow truck guy said you know
- 37:17there's a Denny's two blocks down here
- 37:19and there's a Jack In The Box there and
- 37:20he was driving me to the motel I said is
- 37:21there an IHOP around because I really
- 37:23like IHOP he's like yeah but it's kind
- 37:24of like five miles back in the other
- 37:26direction I was like okay he's like I
- 37:28can drive you there if you want
- 37:30and I was like
- 37:31he's like this short Mexican guy and he
- 37:35seemed really harmless and I was like
- 37:36okay and he you know and I asked him
- 37:39about his life and he had a wife and
- 37:41kids and so he wasn't flirting I already
- 37:43had a girlfriend or something I don't
- 37:44know I'm just trying to be nice to you
- 37:45just being nice and so I ended up
- 37:47telling her and he didn't
- 37:48ever come on me or ever say anything
- 37:50inappropriate and then he drove me back
- 37:52and dropped me off and that was that
- 37:53and um
- 37:55and I got to eat and so I told that to
- 37:58Travis and he didn't say anything at
- 37:59first but it got back to Skye and sky
- 38:01was like why didn't you call me and then
- 38:02I think eventually that was used against
- 38:04me to establish a pattern that I do
- 38:06weird things like that so um that's
- 38:09something we had arguments about a lot
- 38:10was um he's like I just think that so he
- 38:13was truly upset with you about that he
- 38:15felt a little jealous but it I I
- 38:19he told me one said he's a little bit he
- 38:21was a little bit jealous when he found
- 38:22out that he went on those dates he's
- 38:23like but I know we're not dating and
- 38:25he's like yes I guess I am a little bit
- 38:27jealous but with these other incidences
- 38:29he said it just concerns him
- 38:31because he thinks that he thought that I
- 38:33would get myself into a situation where
- 38:34I'd get hurt because I have that sort of
- 38:36attitude and I was really since I joined
- 38:39prepaid I've been really trying to break
- 38:41out of my bubble and do things that are
- 38:42a little uncomfortable
- 38:43as far as um
- 38:46um talking to people and you know I made
- 38:48a resolution this year to overcome a few
- 38:50fears that I have
- 38:52really scared of so I think that by
- 38:54getting into that a little then I can
- 38:57you know overcome some of that
- 39:00um but his he did act jealous but he
- 39:03wouldn't say he was jealous but you
- 39:05would tell other people about it
- 39:09I may have told Skye about that
- 39:12but they probably had a conversation
- 39:14with them and he probably voices
- 39:17um I know that him and Skye had a lot
- 39:19had a lot of fights and arguments and it
- 39:20was and I was the root of that a lot of
- 39:23time
- 39:23but I think you know all in all they
- 39:26especially more recently they got along
- 39:29a lot better
- 39:31I think she gave him a really hard time
- 39:33about our relationship one of the
- 39:35reasons he really wanted to keep it
- 39:36under wrapped
- 39:40so
- 39:41you know moving over to
- 39:44his trip to Cancun that he was going to
- 39:48um when did you first find out about
- 39:50that that he was going with Mimi oh I
- 39:53didn't find I found out about that at
- 39:54his memorial services
- 39:56on Monday
- 39:58was the Monday night memorial service he
- 40:01didn't know that he was going to Cancun
- 40:02I knew he was going yeah I know he was
- 40:05taking maybe I didn't know that I think
- 40:07that's awesome actually yeah well
- 40:09unfortunately Mimi had called him a week
- 40:12or two before and
- 40:15look if you want to take somebody else
- 40:17it's fine but I have something to tell
- 40:19you
- 40:20I don't look at you that way I don't
- 40:22look at you as a boyfriend
- 40:25if you want to be friends we can be
- 40:27friends
- 40:28and that really broke his heart I know
- 40:30um
- 40:31I mean he didn't tell me that but I
- 40:33found out from Miss Bishop afterward
- 40:34when I talked to this bishop
- 40:37his Bishop did say that Travis really
- 40:38took that one
- 40:40they took it to heart and he said he
- 40:42realizes that it's probably speaking
- 40:45from a Bishop's perspective he said it's
- 40:46because you know Mimi is of a certain
- 40:49caliber when it comes to her
- 40:50spirituality and Travis was just another
- 40:52place and that's something he struggled
- 40:54with for a long time well I feel I feel
- 40:58responsible for that partly why do you
- 41:00feel responsible because I wasn't I mean
- 41:02I moved away but I had participated with
- 41:05him in so many things that kept us both
- 41:07down spiritually for a long time I mean
- 41:08if I had just cut ties completely I
- 41:11could probably be married right now
- 41:13probably be working on my own family
- 41:16um
- 41:18what can you do what what kept you to
- 41:20him
- 41:22I don't understand well moving is
- 41:25expensive for one so once I was there it
- 41:28was kind of stuck there
- 41:29um why do you continue to go back to him
- 41:31you know what he wants you know that
- 41:34it's not healthy
- 41:35but yet you continue to go back
- 41:38and it brings us to this point where we
- 41:40are now
- 41:42okay I mean
- 41:46I guess I
- 41:49I physically I keep saying it you knew
- 41:52that it wasn't healthy and and you knew
- 41:54it was contributing with something that
- 41:56wasn't good I think everybody had you
- 41:58guys continue to do it yeah and part of
- 42:01that part of my um perspective now has
- 42:04to do with the fact that I'm going
- 42:05through a repentance process that I
- 42:07worked out with you know with my bishop
- 42:10and he's given me you know certain
- 42:12scriptures to read and Ponder and pray
- 42:14about and it just it brings me back to
- 42:17where I was prior to all that
- 42:20um
- 42:21I don't know how much I ever really was
- 42:23there as much as I am now because even
- 42:24before I was baptized even the two days
- 42:27before I was baptized
- 42:30it was on Wednesday and I was baptized
- 42:32on Sunday
- 42:33um before Thanksgiving and it was just
- 42:35like like Travis and I were making out
- 42:37and you know that was Prior that we
- 42:39hadn't gone all the way at that point
- 42:41but was just too far and I called in
- 42:44that evening and I said having I didn't
- 42:46it just it felt different the first few
- 42:48times was like hey that was great you
- 42:49know whatever and then it just felt
- 42:52different this time it was right before
- 42:53I was about to be baptized and you know
- 42:55I already had my interview and and so it
- 42:58was like
- 43:00it was just different and he said well
- 43:02yeah he's like I feel the same way and I
- 43:03think that's the spirit you know telling
- 43:05us this that or the other and so um
- 43:09I think that by driving the spirit away
- 43:11so much you just get into this
- 43:13pattern of
- 43:16it was just
- 43:17it was convenient there was a couple
- 43:19times where I didn't answer his text
- 43:21messages and he would send me little sad
- 43:23faces or
- 43:25So eventually he would wait and then he
- 43:27would call and he would call again and
- 43:28if I didn't answer he'd call for eight
- 43:30times and obviously you guys kept this
- 43:31relationship hidden from everybody else
- 43:33and uh
- 43:36because nobody really knew about it well
- 43:38there were some people who
- 43:40have I talked to and said yeah they
- 43:42continue to have a relationship even
- 43:44after they broke up
- 43:46and there are others who said who are
- 43:47saying that
- 43:48you had become obsessive with
- 43:51with to the point to where you would go
- 43:54into his house when he wasn't there or
- 43:56when you weren't invited and
- 43:59he would talk to people saying
- 44:01he's kind of showed up and I don't want
- 44:04to tell her to leave but
- 44:06you know I don't want her here oh they
- 44:09were that was it must have been early on
- 44:11because there were a couple times when
- 44:14we established a rule early on just
- 44:16don't you know don't come over unless he
- 44:17said you can come over anytime but I
- 44:19need to know first he's like you just
- 44:21never know because she ran into somebody
- 44:22one time right didn't you run into like
- 44:24one of his ex-girlfriends as well or or
- 44:26was it the end of Detroit oh yeah well
- 44:29that was I was that was okay that I was
- 44:31there he asked me to stay there and um
- 44:33be with Napoleon because that was during
- 44:35conference General Conference in October
- 44:37of last year he took a road trip with
- 44:39some friends from his church to Utah and
- 44:42um unless he's going to California he
- 44:44pretty much leaves Napoleon
- 44:46at home and so he needed someone to be
- 44:49there and
- 44:50it's like I got Full House privileges I
- 44:53could sleep in the bed I could eat you
- 44:55know food I've talked to her and she
- 44:56said that was kind of an unusual kind of
- 44:58situation she didn't expect you to be
- 45:00there she didn't at all and so at first
- 45:02I was like well
- 45:04I was like did you give Dan any any you
- 45:07know black over coming over unannounced
- 45:09because we had just set this role and
- 45:11he's like I talked to her about it he's
- 45:13like but I'll tell you what I was on the
- 45:14phone for three hours with her she was
- 45:16freaking out that you were there
- 45:18and um
- 45:20I think the more that we as the more
- 45:22people knew about us associating The
- 45:24more stress we both got from it
- 45:26and so um it was just easier to try and
- 45:29keep it a secret and we we didn't always
- 45:31do a good job with that I think his
- 45:33roommates may have since he's seen her
- 45:34heard some things
- 45:36um
- 45:37but they were kind of keep to themselves
- 45:39types so we didn't worry too much about
- 45:42them
- 45:43there was actually one roommate John
- 45:45Hepworth who ended up marrying
- 45:47remarrying his same wife and moved back
- 45:49to Utah and um
- 45:52he I was cleaning his house one day
- 45:57he's like you know
- 45:59Travis is dating
- 46:02he said
- 46:04okay and I assumed he was you know going
- 46:08on dates and things he's like no he's
- 46:09really trying to date
- 46:13and I said okay and he's like he he's
- 46:17desperate to get married
- 46:19I said I know that's true and he's like
- 46:21I just wanted to tell you that because I
- 46:22don't think he was being honest with you
- 46:24and I was like okay so that night
- 46:27um you know I confronted him about it
- 46:29and we had a really big fight and it was
- 46:30also it was just a bunch of things were
- 46:32thrown in the mix together and and then
- 46:34we and and I he said listen I'm not
- 46:38dating anyone
- 46:40um
- 46:41but he was very angry at John for
- 46:43getting into his business
- 46:45um he told John in a very nice way I
- 46:48think he I know that you have probably
- 46:51have good intentions but just you know
- 46:53mind your own business kind of thing and
- 46:55from then on
- 46:57I don't think John really said anything
- 47:04and that was that was in October I think
- 47:07you've kind of given me a really good
- 47:09rundown of your relationship and
- 47:12um
- 47:13how you guys thought of each other and
- 47:15stuff and I was pretty pretty close to
- 47:17right on with my with my theory on how
- 47:20you guys you know why you continue to
- 47:22see each other and what was going on
- 47:24during that time
- 47:26um I think there's some other things
- 47:27that you're not telling me I think
- 47:30I think maybe you were
- 47:32the jealousy probably continue even
- 47:34after the fact that you moved away
- 47:38for instance the uh
- 47:42was it the week of the well the first
- 47:45week of June
- 47:48you took a trip to Salt Lake City
- 47:51remember that shirt we talked about oh
- 47:53this year I'm thinking back
- 47:55um yeah you had left I think it was like
- 47:57a Monday more like Monday June 2nd
- 48:00Monday June 2nd and morning or afternoon
- 48:03or something I came up with late morning
- 48:05I think it was morning
- 48:07had gone down to reading the rented a
- 48:09car where did you rent that car oh the
- 48:12Redding Airport
- 48:13you remember what
- 48:15car company it was yeah I don't know a
- 48:17rental company
- 48:20Ford Focus
- 48:21yeah I got that from other people in
- 48:23Utah they said you showed up in a Ford
- 48:24Focus it was white four-door no
- 48:30cruise control
- 48:31I like road trips please control this is
- 48:34good you don't remember what company it
- 48:36was
- 48:37uh okay
- 48:43okay I could look it up and so
- 48:46you took a trip and you decided to go to
- 48:51instead of going over to Utah you went
- 48:53straight out to Los Angeles area I went
- 48:55to Santa Cruz first Santa Cruz okay and
- 48:57then I stayed the night in Monterey
- 48:59and the next day I drove to Pasadena
- 49:03okay waiting for Laura to call me back
- 49:05you didn't contact her at all uh she
- 49:07contacted me finally after I'd already
- 49:09left out there was too late yeah and we
- 49:12had plans to do that again which route
- 49:14did you take from from there I was
- 49:17supposed to get on the 15
- 49:19and go all the way up
- 49:22and I somehow got off the 15. where did
- 49:26you end up
- 49:28um for a while it was lost and I'm not
- 49:30above sleeping in the car so I slept for
- 49:32a while I'm a heavy sleeper and I sleep
- 49:34a lot so but you were on the 15 for a
- 49:36while and you ended up getting off the
- 49:3815 somewhere yeah I I looked at a map
- 49:41but I'm pretty sure I know where I went
- 49:43can I drag him out sure
- 49:49because I eventually started seeing
- 49:50signs um for Phoenix and I was like and
- 49:53it was several hundred miles away still
- 49:55like that's weird where am I going
- 49:58um so we have California Los Angeles
- 50:01and
- 50:04um Nevada Arizona Utah
- 50:08and I was supposed to go somewhere right
- 50:09up here oh I'm a lefty so the 15 kind of
- 50:14does one of these yeah
- 50:16goes through let's say Las Vegas right
- 50:18here oh yeah
- 50:20I'm sorry
- 50:22that's okay so we'll just put just I
- 50:24just I know it cuts through our Zone in
- 50:26the corner
- 50:28Las Vegas
- 50:29um St George is somewhere here
- 50:33and then
- 50:37the 40 runs somewhere this way because
- 50:40somehow I ended up on the 40.
- 50:43and when I saw the 40 I'm like
- 50:45the only thing I associate with the 40
- 50:47is Flagstaff and Flagstaff is somewhere
- 50:49Northwest Utah I mean north north
- 50:52northern Arizona
- 50:54and so um and it was I was going east
- 50:57and I was like this isn't this what's
- 50:59going on here I just I wasn't going the
- 51:00right way and so I
- 51:04um I've had for the last two years I've
- 51:07had a car that has a GPS system and it's
- 51:09really good and um it I think it's sir
- 51:13it hasn't served me
- 51:15as far as getting a sense of direction
- 51:16when I moved to Palm Desert and you kind
- 51:18of rely on it a little too much too much
- 51:20in fact when I moved when I moved in
- 51:24with the last place I lived in Arizona I
- 51:26did not know how close it was to Travis
- 51:28I didn't realize
- 51:30um I have a very bad sense of direction
- 51:32and it wasn't until
- 51:35I began to I used my GPS the whole time
- 51:38I was there pretty much just to find
- 51:39things
- 51:42anyway so I got back
- 51:44I looked at the MapQuest that I I've
- 51:46mapped West a bunch of places I was
- 51:48maybe going to go to Death Valley
- 51:50um I was amazing did you actually cross
- 51:51over into Arizona is that how far you
- 51:53went I crossed over twice I think my map
- 51:56was wrong because the 93 goes north and
- 51:58then I hit the 15 again
- 52:01here and then I hit Arizona
- 52:06somehow I got North on the 93.
- 52:09and then I hit the 15.
- 52:11so I mean I don't know where Phoenix is
- 52:14in Mesa it's got to be over here yeah I
- 52:16didn't go anywhere near there
- 52:18so you you took this trip and you left
- 52:21on
- 52:23was it Monday
- 52:25the second
- 52:27right
- 52:29and you didn't get to Utah until
- 52:33Thursday you told me yeah I got tea time
- 52:35Thursday so Thursday and that's the
- 52:39fifth
- 52:41yeah I think so one day that's Tuesday
- 52:45Wednesday Thursday
- 52:48okay so we have
- 52:50it's like 48 hours there that
- 52:53obviously three days but
- 52:56plenty there's 48 hours so this trip
- 52:58took you a little over 48 hours today
- 53:01um I have a problem with this trip well
- 53:05I went first too yeah I know you went
- 53:08down here I mean obviously
- 53:10Yreka
- 53:12right there
- 53:14beautiful little place here except it's
- 53:15kind of smoky and I can't see the views
- 53:19I was hoping to see some mountains but
- 53:20yeah
- 53:23I've gone over this trip over and over
- 53:29and
- 53:31even if
- 53:33there's still 20 some odd hours
- 53:37even if you pulled over to sleep
- 53:40a couple of times did I tell you that I
- 53:42got stranded yeah
- 53:44you mentioned that if you slept for 10
- 53:47hours
- 53:48from here and here it would still leave
- 53:5318 some odd hours
- 53:57for something else okay this is what
- 54:00people are focusing on is this trip that
- 54:03you took because they're saying she left
- 54:05she gets until Thursday
- 54:11Wednesday
- 54:14some Travis was killed
- 54:20I did not go near his house isn't there
- 54:23aren't there I pulled your cell records
- 54:25your cell phone was turned off
- 54:28between here
- 54:30and here
- 54:32okay but
- 54:34the last place it pulled it
- 54:38was here
- 54:40the next place they turned on
- 54:42it's here
- 54:44what does that show me oh well I began
- 54:47oh no no
- 54:49is there plenty of time for you to do
- 54:51that yes
- 54:53can I do I believe that you
- 54:55had come to visit Travis yes
- 54:59I truly believe it
- 55:03did you have the opportunity yes you
- 55:04were traveling alone there's no other
- 55:06Witnesses your phone just happened to
- 55:08turn off from here here well I didn't
- 55:10turn it off physically but it died
- 55:13and then it magically he you found your
- 55:16charging here it was it was under the
- 55:18back
- 55:19seat of the passenger side and it was
- 55:21when I was when you were lost you
- 55:23couldn't have maybe pulled over and
- 55:24found it well I did finally start
- 55:26looking when I was stranded
- 55:28I wouldn't I wouldn't have pulled over
- 55:29when I was lost
- 55:31okay this I've been focusing on this and
- 55:33going over and over my mind
- 55:37why this happened why your phone turns
- 55:40off here
- 55:41outside of Los Angeles
- 55:44what city is that because I got a tour
- 55:46as far as um it's not cities there's
- 55:48Towers okay Towers dotted all over this
- 55:52place yeah
- 55:53yeah one tower hit here
- 55:54the tower here on the 93.
- 55:57there is no way
- 55:59somebody can get on that 15 and
- 56:01magically get on that 93.
- 56:03because that 15 goes right through Las
- 56:05Vegas
- 56:06right there
- 56:08and continues this way it never goes
- 56:10through Arizona I got off before Las
- 56:12Vegas
- 56:16the 15. you'd have to go to Las Vegas
- 56:19and then come down south go through
- 56:21Boulder City
- 56:23I went through Boulder City going north
- 56:27did you cross over the uh
- 56:30go down
- 56:33you didn't think that was odd you were
- 56:34crossing it over well after I figured
- 56:36out it was lost by then and I found
- 56:38the 93 and then found my way back to the
- 56:4015. and this Tower here it's not just
- 56:45over the Border in Arizona it's quite a
- 56:47distance inside of Arizona that it hit
- 56:50because there is a mountain range all
- 56:53along here
- 56:56and if you're on this side of the
- 56:57mountain range
- 56:58pretty good distance that Signal's not
- 57:01going to come not going to hit you to
- 57:03power Utah
- 57:04or Nevada or California it's not going
- 57:07to hit Arizona
- 57:08well I had somehow gotten off the 15 and
- 57:11gone to the 40.
- 57:13this is what happened
- 57:15the only way you can get on the 40
- 57:17is if after you cross
- 57:20the bridge
- 57:21or the uh the dam I think I got on the
- 57:2440 in California
- 57:28from the 15.
- 57:31well like because I had actually gotten
- 57:33I actually began to drive to 10 west but
- 57:36you see what I'm saying the confusion
- 57:37that we're having
- 57:39and we'll come back to this well I got
- 57:43on the 40 somewhere over here
- 57:45in California
- 57:48drive this way real I realized I was not
- 57:50in the right place at all
- 57:52and then I got onto the 93 North and
- 57:55then I hit the 15 again and then I went
- 57:57through Las Vegas and then St George and
- 57:58then on two times
- 58:02doesn't and I can pull them out to show
- 58:05them to you and you can go over and over
- 58:07and over again
- 58:09but I don't think you're being
- 58:10completely honest with me
- 58:11about about that trip I honestly got
- 58:14lost
- 58:16it's
- 58:17bad timing
- 58:22were you at Travis's house on Wednesday
- 58:24absolutely not it was I was nowhere near
- 58:26Mesa it was nowhere near no Phoenix
- 58:31foreign
- 58:51I was not at Travis's house it was not
- 58:56you were at Travis's house
- 58:59you guys had a sexual encounter
- 59:02which here's pictures
- 59:06I know you know there's pictures because
- 59:09I have them
- 59:12I will show them to you
- 59:15okay
- 59:17so
- 59:19what I'm asking you
- 59:20it's for you to be honest with me
- 59:23I know you were there
- 59:27are you sure those pictures aren't from
- 59:29another time
- 59:39the last time I had any kind of sexual
- 59:42contact with Travis was in April
- 59:50remember I told you about the camera
- 59:52[Music]
- 59:54that camera was damaged
- 59:57someone put it in the washing machine
- 1:00:00ran it through a wash cycle
- 1:00:03with some clothes of Travis's
- 1:00:05but the card's intact
- 1:00:09remember I told you that card was
- 1:00:10destroyed
- 1:00:13I didn't want to tell you the truth
- 1:00:16because I wanted to make sure those
- 1:00:18photos were accurate
- 1:00:20and we can pull deleted photos
- 1:00:23I don't care if you delete them
- 1:00:26six months ago
- 1:00:28pull every photo that was ever on there
- 1:00:30pull the little pixels together
- 1:00:33get the time stamps on them not all of
- 1:00:35them but most of them have time stamps
- 1:00:37on them and we can verify those
- 1:00:38timestamps
- 1:00:39and I have pictures of you in Travis's
- 1:00:42bedroom with Travis pictures of him
- 1:00:45and
- 1:00:47it's obvious you guys are having sex
- 1:00:50taking
- 1:00:52photos of each other
- 1:00:54and they're dated and time stamped on
- 1:00:57the day he died
- 1:00:59are you sure it's me I mean that because
- 1:01:02I was not there it's you
- 1:01:09I know all
- 1:01:12that I don't know is why
- 1:01:15why did you choose
- 1:01:17to go visit Travis that day
- 1:01:21and why did you do what you did
- 1:01:26yeah why did you try this
- 1:01:28you did
- 1:01:32you hurt him
- 1:01:34that's why we're here
- 1:01:37that's why I flew up here
- 1:01:40because I needed to talk to you about
- 1:01:41this
- 1:01:43I can just arrest you and throw you in
- 1:01:45jail but
- 1:01:47I want to know why why did you do this
- 1:01:50to him wouldn't hurt Travis he's done so
- 1:01:53much for me
- 1:01:56there's so much evidence in that house
- 1:01:59so much and it all points to you I I
- 1:02:03lived there
- 1:02:05I was there for months and months and
- 1:02:07months
- 1:02:15I know you took pictures of him in the
- 1:02:16shower
- 1:02:19just before he died
- 1:02:21I don't think he would allow that
- 1:02:25and the camera actually took a couple of
- 1:02:27photos by accident
- 1:02:30during the time he was being killed
- 1:02:32really
- 1:02:35you were there
- 1:02:38quit playing this game

- 1:02:42didn't know I I did not hurt Travis
- 1:02:49and not her Travis
- 1:02:55I wouldn't do that to him
- 1:03:00have the pictures
- 1:03:11can I see the pictures

- 1:03:42at the scene
- 1:03:44in blood
- 1:03:49what's going on there
- 1:03:51well I can explain the blood and the
- 1:03:53hair I don't know about my left palm
- 1:03:54print how can you explain the blood of
- 1:03:56that well because I used to bathe in
- 1:03:58Napoleon
- 1:04:01and um you haven't been there since
- 1:04:03April
- 1:04:04right
- 1:04:07he's had the house cleaned several times

- 1:04:10and this hair was not just a hair
- 1:04:14in the shower
- 1:04:16this hair was stuck
- 1:04:18with blood and obviously had blood on it
- 1:04:23at the time it got stuck where where it
- 1:04:25ended up
- 1:04:27there's no way over
- 1:04:30there's no other hair can you take can
- 1:04:32you take a hair sample yeah no no but I
- 1:04:36mean like you know how they can do drug
- 1:04:37tests and find out when things were done
- 1:04:39can you we can't do that can't you
- 1:04:42measure the time we have DNA matching
- 1:04:45that hair too okay I know but and that
- 1:04:47hair had a follicle on it and that means
- 1:04:49that that hair wasn't there very long
- 1:04:51follicle usually dissipate and go away
- 1:04:56after a certain time it'll fall off the
- 1:04:59hair itself
- 1:05:00well when I would brush my shoulder
- 1:05:03I mean this one
- 1:05:07you absolutely
- 1:05:09cannot
- 1:05:13cannot explain that away
- 1:05:16you've either had blood on your hand
- 1:05:19and you touch the wall

- 1:07:28if I'm found guilty I don't have a life
- 1:07:32I'm not guilty
- 1:07:35I didn't hurt Travis if I hurt Travis if
- 1:07:39I killed Travis I would beg for the
- 1:07:41death penalty was there anybody else
- 1:07:43with you
- 1:07:45I was traveling alone
- 1:07:47the whole time was there anybody else
- 1:07:48with you at Travis's household wouldn't
- 1:07:50stay the poor I was not a truck to tell
- 1:07:53someone said you are
- 1:07:55because that's when the blood was left
- 1:07:57on the bloody paw print was left on his
- 1:07:59wall
- 1:08:02I don't know what to tell you
- 1:08:05if you were in my shoes and I had this
- 1:08:07evidence against
- 1:08:09against you what would you say
- 1:08:12if I had that evidence against you it'd
- 1:08:15be pretty obvious but I guess being in
- 1:08:17my position I it just seems so
- 1:08:19impossible I want to see it I want to
- 1:08:21know I mean I'm not like I'm not a
- 1:08:24murderer but I guess if I were to do
- 1:08:25that I would wear gloves or you know
- 1:08:27something I just
- 1:08:30How Could my I don't know
- 1:08:34I know you tried to wash him off
- 1:08:37try to get some of the blood off try to
- 1:08:39clean them up a little bit
- 1:08:41but you're even denying the pictures
- 1:08:45have you been there
- 1:08:47there's pictures of you laying on the
- 1:08:49bed in pigtails
- 1:08:51pigtails yes
- 1:08:54now I've got pictures of you that I've
- 1:08:56blown up and you've got the little mole
- 1:08:58right there it's the same one it's you
- 1:09:00it's obvious
- 1:09:04I can show you some of these pictures
- 1:09:08if you want to see the pictures
- 1:09:11will that change your mind
- 1:09:15I'm curious
- 1:09:18we're breaking let me go find them
- 1:09:20I'm gonna show you
- 1:09:23I wasn't there what you need to think
- 1:09:25about what you're saying
- 1:09:27this continuing to lie is not going to
- 1:09:29help you
- 1:09:31if you want to something I didn't do
- 1:09:32won't help me either
- 1:09:35okay let's say for a second that I did
- 1:09:38and I say
- 1:09:40I did it
- 1:09:43I mean
- 1:09:47the motive is there a jealousy issue
- 1:09:52but I wasn't I wouldn't even say it was
- 1:09:55jealous I mean there may have been some
- 1:09:58jealousy there but then was this
- 1:10:03I think if you know if anyone maybe
- 1:10:05Travis was jealous but
- 1:10:10what everybody else says well they know
- 1:10:12he was jealous but they think that you
- 1:10:14are absolutely obsessed
- 1:10:17obsessed is the word that they use
- 1:10:19that's the word I hear from everybody
- 1:10:22Fatal Attraction I don't know how many
- 1:10:24times I've heard that
- 1:10:27could Jodi Jody
- 1:10:29has War she got someone to do it for
- 1:10:32there's not one person that says
- 1:10:34anything else
- 1:10:36why is that
- 1:10:38that's the perception they have of you
- 1:10:40and there's a reason for that perception
- 1:10:43maybe because it's true maybe because we
- 1:10:46kept hanging out
- 1:10:48but not because it's true
- 1:10:51cause of this
- 1:10:54I can prove you were there
- 1:10:56I can prove it
- 1:10:58but what I don't have is I don't have
- 1:11:00answers on why it happened
- 1:11:02or you know maybe something just got out
- 1:11:05of hand Maybe
- 1:11:08maybe things get out of hand the gun
- 1:11:11maybe that would
- 1:11:14join
- 1:11:15we're just playing games here
- 1:11:19the gun was in your possession
- 1:11:22when did you report it stolen
- 1:11:25um I didn't even know that there were
- 1:11:27guns until my grandma
- 1:11:28's reported it's still in the table the
- 1:11:30day that their house was broken into
- 1:11:33remember this a few months ago maybe
- 1:11:40did you do with the gun
- 1:11:43I don't have a gun
- 1:11:47they're going through your house right
- 1:11:49now so
- 1:11:50are they gonna find anything there that
- 1:11:52will lead you back for this I don't
- 1:11:54think they would
- 1:11:55I mean there's nothing that could link
- 1:11:58me there I mean that's pretty compelling
- 1:11:59I have to admit if you found my palm
- 1:12:01print there
- 1:12:03I don't know
- 1:12:05I just that's do you have a pair of
- 1:12:07sweatpants It's Got Stripes around the
- 1:12:09back side with zippers
- 1:12:13everybody's seeing you wearing those
- 1:12:14before
- 1:12:16I've got so many clothes
- 1:12:19yeah I think I do wait
- 1:12:21I have a well I have zipper one that
- 1:12:23zips in the back
- 1:12:25it's got like Stripes uh like big stripe
- 1:12:27on it on the wall
- 1:12:29stripe all the way down and they're
- 1:12:31white it's got the black I have those
- 1:12:33throughout the house okay it's got um I
- 1:12:36have two pairs actually one is too small
- 1:12:38and one is just about right
- 1:12:40um the other one I bought anyway that
- 1:12:42was too small because it was on sale and
- 1:12:43it's a good deal
- 1:12:45um but yeah they have stripes
- 1:12:48what does that mean what is that
- 1:12:51because I believe you were wearing a
- 1:12:52pair like that well that's when this
- 1:12:54happened
- 1:12:54remember I told you about the camera
- 1:12:57it was taking pictures by accident
- 1:12:59camera was upside down Flash
- 1:13:03another time camera flashed looked like
- 1:13:06it was on the ground maybe it was kicked
- 1:13:08but he took pictures and it's obviously
- 1:13:10a female
- 1:13:13and one of them was wearing those pants
- 1:13:16oh I didn't even bring those pants in
- 1:13:17that shirt
- 1:13:18so if we find those pants is that going
- 1:13:21to make my case a little bit better yeah
- 1:13:24relax
- 1:13:26take a little break but I need you to
- 1:13:28think about what you're doing here this
- 1:13:30is the best thing for you to do is to
- 1:13:33tell me the truth
- 1:13:35tell me exactly what happened because
- 1:13:37you know what I think your mom and your
- 1:13:39Dad really deserve the truth
- 1:13:45they're going to be asking
- 1:13:48and it's
- 1:13:50absolutely
- 1:13:55it's so important that you tell me
- 1:14:00why this occurred what was going through
- 1:14:02your mind and what caused you to do this
- 1:14:07if it happened and I can prove it happen
- 1:14:10and there's no doubt in my mind and
- 1:14:11there absolutely is no doubt in anybody
- 1:14:13else's mind who's investigating this
- 1:14:15that you were there and that you did
- 1:14:16this
- 1:14:18but
- 1:14:21I'll let you think about that

- 1:28:41that you did this to him
- 1:28:43that's my job my job is to speak for him
- 1:28:48and this is what he's telling me
- 1:28:50and
- 1:28:54I want to know why
- 1:28:58like there's no reason for it there's no
- 1:29:01reason why there's no reason I would
- 1:29:04ever want to hurt him
- 1:29:08there's no way anybody else
- 1:29:11he never raped me nobody never there's
- 1:29:14no way

- 1:29:24no way
- 1:29:25get that through your head if I was
- 1:29:27going to ever try to kill somebody I
- 1:29:31would

- 1:29:34I just said you were
- 1:29:36you know you had to plan this out
- 1:29:38perfectly

- 1:30:32I've never once said hi to them met them
- 1:30:34shook their hand met them face to face
- 1:30:35across the street
- 1:30:37when I spent time there he wanted to
- 1:30:39keep on private so it was um
- 1:30:42I spent them during my time inside
- 1:30:46not you know walking around outside
- 1:30:51except for a few times when I took his
- 1:30:52daughter for a walk
- 1:30:54would they see your car there
- 1:30:59would you park it down the street no
- 1:31:01they would see it there I drove an
- 1:31:03infinity
- 1:31:04so they would definitely recognize the
- 1:31:06car I'm sure because well there are a
- 1:31:08lot of cars there A lot of times where's
- 1:31:09the infinity now
- 1:31:13to the impound yard somewhere
- 1:31:18so are we going to find any evidence in
- 1:31:19that car
- 1:31:21you're free to look
- 1:31:25you can also look in the rental car
- 1:31:29company did you rent it from I don't
- 1:31:31remember but I can check my
- 1:31:33account can check my
- 1:31:35my debit card record
- 1:31:37I remember the making line no we're
- 1:31:39waiting for it anyway but you know all
- 1:31:41the new cars have GPS is in them
- 1:31:43oh
- 1:31:44Factory
- 1:31:46not foreign
- 1:31:54that's good because I was also going to
- 1:31:56ask you I don't know if this is
- 1:31:59something that
- 1:32:01you can recall but a lot of the
- 1:32:03stoplights in Mason things have cameras
- 1:32:05on them has been there any way we could
- 1:32:08back that up or you know if I were going
- 1:32:11through that tunnel is that surveillance
- 1:32:13anywhere
- 1:32:16unless you ran a red line
- 1:32:18unless you got caught on a speed camera
- 1:32:23but nothing
- 1:32:25beats that stuff
- 1:32:28can I have a solid case against you and
- 1:32:31I can present it to the judge
- 1:32:35as cold as as it is now
- 1:32:38I don't know why she did
- 1:32:41or I can present it to the judge
- 1:32:46with your explanation
- 1:32:51with your parents explanation have you
- 1:32:54talked to your parents about what
- 1:32:55happened
- 1:32:57um I told him I was worried about stuff
- 1:32:59about what stuff I said that well they
- 1:33:03knew I was upset about Travis and I feel
- 1:33:05really bad by the way I was acting
- 1:33:06because I wasn't
- 1:33:07especially toward my grandparents there
- 1:33:09were a lot of times why are they not
- 1:33:11surprised that you're sitting here
- 1:33:12talking to me
- 1:33:14about this
- 1:33:17what do you mean they're not surprised
- 1:33:20they're concerned they're they're hurt
- 1:33:24by him but my other detectives have
- 1:33:27and
- 1:33:29they're very concerned with you
- 1:33:33but they kind of suspected that you had
- 1:33:35something to do with Travis's death as
- 1:33:36well whose parents think that that's
- 1:33:40because I told them that a lot of people
- 1:33:42were dropping my name and I said I'm not
- 1:33:44worried about it because I didn't do it
- 1:33:45I said but it's very much it's hurting
- 1:33:47my reputation right now and it's it's
- 1:33:50casting me in a bad light I wouldn't be
- 1:33:52worrying about your reputation right now
- 1:33:54I'd be worrying about the rest of your
- 1:33:56life
- 1:33:57that means nothing
- 1:34:00absolutely nothing
- 1:34:02well they're my reputation will affect
- 1:34:05the rest of my life
- 1:34:08so I am worried about her invitation
- 1:34:14you're going to continue with the story
- 1:34:15then that you weren't and may sell on
- 1:34:18the fourth you born in Travis's house
- 1:34:20you didn't have sex with him that day
- 1:34:23and you had nothing to do with his
- 1:34:25murder
- 1:34:27those pictures are I don't know to me
- 1:34:29pictures are very compelling
- 1:34:33I know they can be modified I know they
- 1:34:35can be altered and date and time stamps
- 1:34:37I
- 1:34:38I don't know but I I think they can be
- 1:34:40kind of modify anything I don't think
- 1:34:42you would we take absolutely Special
- 1:34:44Care
- 1:34:46of what we do I know
- 1:34:48we actually take an image of that card
- 1:34:50or let's say you get a computer take an
- 1:34:52image of that hard drive and make a copy
- 1:34:55of it
- 1:34:56don't even touch your hard drive
- 1:34:58we just work with the copy
- 1:35:02and that's exactly what we do with the
- 1:35:03photos we don't work with the originals
- 1:35:05we just make a exact
- 1:35:08digital copy of everything
- 1:35:10move it over so we don't touch it
- 1:35:13and then we analyze it and our guys are
- 1:35:15so good
- 1:35:17every case that you've ever done that I
- 1:35:19know of
- 1:35:20has never been lost in court it's been
- 1:35:23argued and argued and argued there's no
- 1:35:25way that they duplicate or that they
- 1:35:29enhance or that they change or that they
- 1:35:31do anything to a photo
- 1:35:36see what happens
- 1:35:39you don't have to pay the price so
- 1:35:41what's the price
- 1:35:43I don't know don't you know what the
- 1:35:45sentences are that they have sentences
- 1:35:47that are carried for something depends
- 1:35:48on your situation
- 1:35:51how old you are
- 1:35:53depends on the type of crime
- 1:35:57it depends on whether
- 1:35:59you show remorse or not
- 1:36:02and part of that remorse is at least
- 1:36:04coming clean
- 1:36:07when somebody doesn't come clean
- 1:36:11I don't see any remorse
- 1:36:14I don't know if the judge would see any
- 1:36:15remorse I don't know if a jury would see
- 1:36:18it for remorse
- 1:36:20but I don't know that's not for me to
- 1:36:23decide
- 1:36:24my job is to investigate
- 1:36:28find out who did it why they did it
- 1:36:31and present it to a court
- 1:36:34and that's it I just can't imagine
- 1:36:43you have something to tell me but you're
- 1:36:45you're just so resistant
- 1:36:50I know you're afraid
- 1:36:52but you're already going through it
- 1:36:54right now there's no backing up
- 1:36:56there's no backing up to yesterday
- 1:36:58there's no backing up until that day
- 1:37:01it already happened
- 1:37:04and unfortunately you're gonna have to
- 1:37:07face the consequences
- 1:37:09um you know if if I did that
- 1:37:11I would I'd be fully ready to face the
- 1:37:14consequences
- 1:37:17um I'm not really for things like you
- 1:37:20know I'm all for the Ten Commandments
- 1:37:21Thou shalt not kill
- 1:37:23okay
- 1:37:25um but there's there's no evidence to
- 1:37:28show anybody else did that
- 1:37:30none
- 1:37:31well I'm just you think we'd find
- 1:37:33somebody else's fingerprint addicted to
- 1:37:35Dad
- 1:37:38there's something that happens you keep
- 1:37:40saying gloves there's things that happen
- 1:37:42when people wear gloves
- 1:37:44then we can actually see that somebody
- 1:37:46wore gloves in this case nobody
- 1:37:48workloads in this case
- 1:37:50nobody
- 1:37:52so evidence I'm just saying that if I
- 1:37:54were to carry out something like that I
- 1:37:55would have worn gloves nobody else
- 1:37:57nobody else did this there's no evidence
- 1:38:00to show that anybody else did this but
- 1:38:02you
- 1:38:03you were the only one
- 1:38:06that is it
- 1:38:09and I'm not seeing any remorse I'm not
- 1:38:12seeing any
- 1:38:14anything from you
- 1:38:17to make me believe anything otherwise
- 1:38:19you can continue to say I didn't do it
- 1:38:22well but you're the kid that got caught
- 1:38:24on videotape stealing the candy
- 1:38:27and you continue to say it wasn't me
- 1:38:31I have the proof I have the pictures it
- 1:38:34wasn't me
- 1:38:38I don't think you would you would admit
- 1:38:40to it if somebody if your old mother saw
- 1:38:43you
- 1:38:44do this and she told me yeah I saw her
- 1:38:47do this you would say no it wasn't me
- 1:38:51why won't you admit to it
- 1:38:57kill traffic
- 1:39:06did you have anything to do with the
- 1:39:08death of Travis
- 1:39:12directly to do with it but I feel
- 1:39:14responsible someone for it
- 1:39:17then what can you tell me about his
- 1:39:19death
- 1:39:21you know a lot more about it than I do
- 1:39:23when I say I feel responsible it's
- 1:39:25because I was
- 1:39:27I wasn't
- 1:39:29planning to go there at all and he
- 1:39:31really wanted me to go and
- 1:39:34I told him no and I would have if it
- 1:39:37weren't for Ryan and there's nothing
- 1:39:39really with Ryan and I in fact he has
- 1:39:42been very hesitant to move anything
- 1:39:43forward because he's not sure about me
- 1:39:47um he said a lot of people are talking
- 1:39:48I'll just tell you that right now I
- 1:39:50really wish this would get solved so
- 1:39:51that we can just put it behind us
- 1:39:54um maybe that's a good thing because
- 1:39:55he's not an active church member anyway
- 1:39:58but
- 1:40:00the reason I feel is because if I had if
- 1:40:03it weren't for Ryan I wouldn't fold it
- 1:40:05and I would have just scrapped all my
- 1:40:07plans and spent all of my days there
- 1:40:11um
- 1:40:12but I didn't and it stood strong and he
- 1:40:14got mad and got sad and he guilted me he
- 1:40:17didn't get really mad he just kind of
- 1:40:18guilted me and finally was like whatever
- 1:40:20fine let me hung up
- 1:40:27I feel that if I would have gone there
- 1:40:31if I could
- 1:40:34I could that I could have done something
- 1:40:37I could but you were there Jody
- 1:40:42you were there on Wednesday before can I
- 1:40:45ask you I don't know if you know this
- 1:40:49oh I have a camera in my storage unit
- 1:40:51that I don't use anymore but the Travis
- 1:40:53not used to use frequently and we took
- 1:40:56pictures with it
- 1:40:58um
- 1:41:00I don't know this is kind of do you
- 1:41:02remember taking these pictures
- 1:41:06there were many pictures I
- 1:41:09vaguely they were we took tons and tons
- 1:41:12of things some I saved the most we
- 1:41:14deleted
- 1:41:15um so he sent me through his phone and
- 1:41:17he usually deleted all pictures like
- 1:41:19this
- 1:41:21yeah
- 1:41:22any pictures like this that I found
- 1:41:24anywhere on this computer camera
- 1:41:27anything
- 1:41:30they were deleted
- 1:41:32well prior to him getting his camera all
- 1:41:35those pictures were on my camera
- 1:41:37um
- 1:41:39so
- 1:41:42I call these same pictures
- 1:41:46[Music]
- 1:41:46um
- 1:41:49I don't know
- 1:41:52I don't know we took um we took a bunch
- 1:41:54the week before I left
- 1:41:56um we took a bunch
- 1:41:58over the last
- 1:42:00six or seven months
- 1:42:02we took over last year even when we were
- 1:42:05still dating but we would delete them
- 1:42:06mostly
- 1:42:07um there were some that he sent me that
- 1:42:08I didn't delete
- 1:42:11um
- 1:42:15what I'm asking is is it possible that
- 1:42:18you know that my memory card would have
- 1:42:20been in his camera they're
- 1:42:21interchangeable
- 1:42:24s are interchangeable I don't that's why
- 1:42:27I'm asking is what kind of memory card
- 1:42:28it was
- 1:42:30just a regular little SD card well
- 1:42:33because I've got one I've got one that's
- 1:42:35like this big
- 1:42:37like a cracker
- 1:42:39and when I use on my professional
- 1:42:40cameras like this size and it's more
- 1:42:43kind of like that thick
- 1:42:46and the little one is really thin
- 1:42:49and it's got like little thingies here
- 1:42:52for reading it and maybe one that's like
- 1:42:54that and then that'll part
- 1:42:56so that one obviously probably wouldn't
- 1:42:57be interchangeable because it's a cannon
- 1:42:59and it's nice
- 1:43:01but the other one
- 1:43:05I don't know I don't know your camera's
- 1:43:07here his camera was there he just bought
- 1:43:09that camera
- 1:43:09well the other camera that I used before
- 1:43:12that's broken now it's in my storage
- 1:43:13unit but it's still there and you're
- 1:43:16saying those pictures are on that camera
- 1:43:18I know what I'm saying is I had several
- 1:43:21memory cards for this camera that I
- 1:43:22don't have anymore
- 1:43:24and so I guess
- 1:43:27I
- 1:43:28was so far-fetched but I guess it's
- 1:43:30possible that
- 1:43:32my my car just saying somebody took your
- 1:43:36your pictures or your card and is
- 1:43:39framing you and put that into this
- 1:43:42camera if if mine and regards were left
- 1:43:45at his house he could he would have used
- 1:43:46those for his camp
- 1:43:49time
- 1:43:50I don't know
- 1:43:54I can explain the blood though and I can
- 1:43:56explain the hair I don't know
- 1:43:58I can't explain the Blogger there
- 1:44:01well the hair
- 1:44:03there's hair everywhere and probably
- 1:44:05every square inch of that house my hair
- 1:44:07if you sweep it you'll get hair
- 1:44:09everywhere all over around the toilet
- 1:44:11around in the shop I don't know what the
- 1:44:12shower because the shower gets used but
- 1:44:13definitely around the bottom of the um
- 1:44:16the sink area
- 1:44:20follicle in it you haven't been there
- 1:44:22since April
- 1:44:24there's no way
- 1:44:26no way
- 1:44:30the blood
- 1:44:33no well the blood is mixed with his and
- 1:44:36that's that's the blood that he that he
- 1:44:38bled that day when he was killed well
- 1:44:42print I don't know absolutely if you can
- 1:44:44check how fresh the blood was no we
- 1:44:46can't check how fresh it is but we can
- 1:44:48go by where it is okay because I cut
- 1:44:50myself
- 1:44:54and you're saying that that blood
- 1:44:58that you cut yourself with back who
- 1:45:01knows when
- 1:45:02it was still on the wall in the exact
- 1:45:05same spot oh I don't know where the
- 1:45:08where the bloody palm print was
- 1:45:14a
- 1:45:19ble to give him that and I dropped it
- 1:45:21and when I picked up all the glass and
- 1:45:22I'm pretty casual about it because I
- 1:45:24break glass at work all the time and
- 1:45:26it's not a big deal it's nothing to be
- 1:45:27scared of
- 1:45:28I was probably just being careless with
- 1:45:30it and I sliced myself open and is that
- 1:45:33how you want to leave this
- 1:45:35because these far-fetched excuses on why
- 1:45:38your blood is there while your hair is
- 1:45:40there like a palm print is there what
- 1:45:43pictures are there
- 1:45:46that's how you want to leave this
- 1:45:48I wouldn't want to
- 1:45:51I seriously would not want to
- 1:45:55you need to come out
- 1:45:57and tell me why this happened
- 1:45:59I will not accept any other excuses
- 1:46:04I will just move on with my
- 1:46:05investigation with my final report
- 1:46:08submitting all the conclusions and all
- 1:46:11the evidence
- 1:46:13and we can just let that judge and the
- 1:46:15jury decide
- 1:46:17you yourself said that fewer in my shoes
- 1:46:19you would think that I was guilty
- 1:46:25we can leave it in the hands of a jury
- 1:46:28fine would that help me at all
- 1:46:32I mean you can't use them Accord but
- 1:46:34well then there's no point in taking it
- 1:46:38I thought those things can be used in
- 1:46:40certain cases in this case if you want I
- 1:46:42can check
- 1:46:44absolutely if I passed a lie detector
- 1:46:46test would that help you
- 1:46:48could help you
- 1:46:51you're so weird anyway
- 1:47:00this is your one opportunity to talk to
- 1:47:03me because I
- 1:47:05it's going to be a while before I talk
- 1:47:07to you again
- 1:47:08and it's not going to be in this kind of
- 1:47:10setting
- 1:47:14do you understand what's going to happen
- 1:47:15to you
- 1:47:20well we're gonna since these charges are
- 1:47:22out of Arizona
- 1:47:25um
- 1:47:26we're going to send you through the
- 1:47:27court system here
- 1:47:29and we're going to ask to extradite you
- 1:47:31to Arizona from California
- 1:47:33that just means permission for you to
- 1:47:35bring it over because you're out of
- 1:47:37state limits
- 1:47:38and the next time we talk could be in a
- 1:47:40whole different setting
- 1:47:42I've been in jail somewhere
- 1:47:47I think this setting is a little bit
- 1:47:48better
- 1:47:52but it's up to you
- 1:47:55Jody I know you were there
- 1:47:59I know
- 1:48:03that Travis was either
- 1:48:06in the shower or just outside the shower
- 1:48:08with him shot
- 1:48:10know somebody who was extremely angry at
- 1:48:13him
- 1:48:16took a knife to him
- 1:48:20and couldn't stop
- 1:48:23I couldn't stop
- 1:48:26and before you knew it it was all over
- 1:48:28and then you panicked
- 1:48:31and then I would I've never been angry
- 1:48:34that angry at him not enough for that
- 1:48:36I've been so far angrier at other people
- 1:48:38and other ex-boyfriends
- 1:48:41didn't tell me who could have done this
- 1:48:45who did this I don't know but if I am
- 1:48:49if I go to trial for this and if I'm if
- 1:48:51I'm convicted for this whoever did this
- 1:48:53is going to be sitting very pretty
- 1:48:54somewhere glad that it wasn't them
- 1:48:57and it's my job to make sure that
- 1:49:00and so person does not go to jail
- 1:49:04but I don't see this in person sitting
- 1:49:06in front of me
- 1:49:09when I asked you I always I always asked
- 1:49:12this one question
- 1:49:14actually it's two first one is did you
- 1:49:17kill Travis
- 1:49:19moments that I am I didn't have anything
- 1:49:22to do with it
- 1:49:23then I asked you similar question
- 1:49:26did you have anything to do with
- 1:49:28Travis's death
- 1:49:31you hesitated again that's because I
- 1:49:34feel like if I had gone to Arizona like
- 1:49:36most people would say no
- 1:49:40did you kill Travis no well I didn't and
- 1:49:43I didn't have anything to do with it now
- 1:49:45do I feel responsible I've been carrying
- 1:49:47around guilt since I heard about it why
- 1:49:49do you feel responsible if you felt
- 1:49:51responsible what means you know
- 1:49:52something else no because it means your
- 1:49:54actions led to his death because he
- 1:49:57always has guilted me he's always
- 1:49:58guilted me and so you feel somebody else
- 1:50:02you feel somebody else killed him
- 1:50:04well yeah for what reason I don't know I
- 1:50:07don't know how do you feel guilty
- 1:50:09because you don't know the reason here's
- 1:50:11why I feel guilty the one of the last
- 1:50:13times we spoke he was guilting me
- 1:50:16coming to see him and part of my heart
- 1:50:18still wanted to go see him and another
- 1:50:20part just wants to move on and
- 1:50:24pursue this new Avenue which was in Utah
- 1:50:27and there is a tinge of guilt you know
- 1:50:30when he would text me and he would say
- 1:50:32hey you want to come over and make out
- 1:50:33or wanna
- 1:50:36um
- 1:50:37I didn't respond one night and I just
- 1:50:40stayed strong and I didn't respond and
- 1:50:42then he called and called and called and
- 1:50:45then the next day he was like you don't
- 1:50:47care about me you don't love me you
- 1:50:50don't care I was there all alone and you
- 1:50:53didn't want to come and hang out or you
- 1:50:54didn't want to come and keep me company
- 1:50:56and he says it not like that but in that
- 1:50:58tone but it's in the sweetest sweetest
- 1:51:00way and it's it's it's guilt
- 1:51:04um
- 1:51:05still don't get the guilt I really don't
- 1:51:08you keep explaining it but it has
- 1:51:09nothing to do with whether because he
- 1:51:11guilty is killed or not how is you being
- 1:51:14there going to prevent him from being
- 1:51:16killed
- 1:51:17well I kind of kind of feel like I had
- 1:51:19gone that
- 1:51:22watching a movie
- 1:51:25done something more than just him
- 1:51:28I just feel like if if there was some
- 1:51:30way that I I could have prevented it
- 1:51:32there's some way that I could have done
- 1:51:34something to stop it and I told that to
- 1:51:36a few people know like well you might
- 1:51:37have been killed too
- 1:51:39maybe but maybe Travis would still be
- 1:51:41alive
- 1:51:47Travis has done a lot for me and I
- 1:51:49wouldn't hurt him
- 1:51:52he introduced The Gospel to me
- 1:51:57I prove to says otherwise Joey I can't
- 1:52:03I can't deny that
- 1:52:05I can't deny that proof
- 1:52:07and that proof is not pointing at
- 1:52:09anybody else
- 1:52:11nobody
- 1:52:12nobody in this entire world except you
- 1:52:17nobody
- 1:52:21nobody else was in that house that day
- 1:52:24looks up to you
- 1:52:27you're the only one you and him alone I
- 1:52:30didn't even go to Mesa can you check can
- 1:52:33you check your GPS yes we will check
- 1:52:35that
- 1:52:37if it's you know and if that comes back
- 1:52:39and and I've looked at the map and the
- 1:52:41way that you're saying that you traveled
- 1:52:43there is no way when the last road trip
- 1:52:45Travis and I went on we drove to Utah
- 1:52:47what I mean I'm sorry we drove to
- 1:52:49Oklahoma City
- 1:52:51um from Mesa and one of our stops on the
- 1:52:53way was Roswell after he drove all night
- 1:52:56and I slept and then when after Roswell
- 1:52:59Museum it was my turn to drive and he's
- 1:53:01like just get on this and drive 98 point
- 1:53:04something miles and then we should be
- 1:53:06there so I got on the road and I drove
- 1:53:0898.6 or two or whatever miles it was
- 1:53:12and I woke him up and I said I don't
- 1:53:14think we're here and he will come looked
- 1:53:15around it was just like rolling Fields
- 1:53:17Forever and I drove completely in the
- 1:53:20wrong direction and I'm not saying
- 1:53:25I don't know I'm just saying I have a
- 1:53:27poor sense of direction I got totally
- 1:53:29lost
- 1:53:30I know maybe that's just bad luck I got
- 1:53:33totally lost so even if you're not
- 1:53:35totally lost it doesn't explain all that
- 1:53:37time
- 1:53:38it does not I mean if you went four
- 1:53:41hours here or five hours in a wrong
- 1:53:43direction it's still at that one point I
- 1:53:46wasn't going anywhere because I ran out
- 1:53:47of gas
- 1:53:48I was totally stranded
- 1:53:54I was sitting like a Sitting Duck and
- 1:53:56that's when I began it was it was a
- 1:53:58little bit warm and it wasn't too hot
- 1:54:00but
- 1:54:01um that's when I just I read for a
- 1:54:03little bit I already slept um
- 1:54:06and that's when I just started looking
- 1:54:07around the car and organizing stuff and
- 1:54:11getting trash together and had a couple
- 1:54:13bites to eat from snacks that I had and
- 1:54:15when I said cleaning out under the seat
- 1:54:16I found my phone charger plugged it in
- 1:54:18powered it on there was no cell phone
- 1:54:19reception anywhere so you've never seen
- 1:54:22his camera
- 1:54:24there's a new camera I don't know he
- 1:54:26described it did you ever touch his
- 1:54:28camera
- 1:54:30I've never seen it okay so there's no
- 1:54:32reason your fingerprints should be on it
- 1:54:35because that thing's off at a lab right
- 1:54:37now
- 1:54:38and
- 1:54:40they're hopeful that they can get some
- 1:54:41prints off the camera okay and if your
- 1:54:43prints come back on that camera what are
- 1:54:45you gonna say
- 1:54:47well they won't come back on you because
- 1:54:48I've never touched it
- 1:54:56yourself can't explain the rest of this
- 1:54:58stuff
- 1:55:00I honestly can't explain the pictures
- 1:55:02the other stuff and or the palm print
- 1:55:04the other stuff I can explain it I can't
- 1:55:06explain the blood either
- 1:55:08because that blood is in blood I mean
- 1:55:11that it's it's part of the print
- 1:55:14unless you cut yourself
- 1:55:17at the beginning of the year and left
- 1:55:18your palm print and blood
- 1:55:20and it stayed there until he was killed
- 1:55:23I cut myself it wasn't the beginning of
- 1:55:25the year it was before convention no you
- 1:55:27can't explain that
- 1:55:30I'd have to say early March
- 1:55:32that palm print is there
- 1:55:35in blood
- 1:55:37partially yours and partially is
- 1:55:43is it possible there's just like any
- 1:55:46other way in the universe that that
- 1:55:47could have gotten there
- 1:55:49possible
- 1:55:51probable is the question you need to ask
- 1:55:53who probably was absolutely not probable
- 1:55:57I understand that but it is possible
- 1:55:59Anything is Possible
- 1:56:06that is very compelling
- 1:56:10that's why I'm here that's why I travel
- 1:56:12here
- 1:56:13because I came here to arrest you
- 1:56:17and get an explanation from you that's
- 1:56:19the second reason
- 1:56:21and since you're not giving me an
- 1:56:22explanation I guess we'll just continue
- 1:56:24with the uh I just have no reason to
- 1:56:26hurt Travis you do have race in her
- 1:56:28Travis what would my reason possibly
- 1:56:30believe it there's a whole history of
- 1:56:32you too but everybody knows it I have a
- 1:56:35whole history with other guys why is
- 1:56:37everybody saying that you had something
- 1:56:40to do with his death
- 1:56:42why is everybody saying that you are
- 1:56:43capable of hurting him
- 1:56:46everybody says it
- 1:56:48so don't tell me that you're not capable
- 1:56:50I don't even hurt spiders
- 1:56:55have you ever had any anger issues
- 1:56:57before
- 1:56:58never in your past
- 1:57:03arguments well everybody has arguments
- 1:57:05I'm talking about anger
- 1:57:07just absolute anger
- 1:57:10you just you lose it sometimes
- 1:57:12no I had a nervous breakdown once
- 1:57:15a chicken and a baby medication or
- 1:57:17anything about that
- 1:57:19well I had a nervous breakdown when a
- 1:57:21boyfriend and I were already once and
- 1:57:25and he he began to argue with me in a
- 1:57:28way that was totally different from how
- 1:57:30we had ever argued before and he was
- 1:57:32just like every time I'd say something
- 1:57:34he was like no no no you know it was
- 1:57:36kind of weird like
- 1:57:38every time I tried to formulate a
- 1:57:40thought and I was just sad and I was
- 1:57:42crying every time I tried swimming with
- 1:57:43that he would interject and twist it and
- 1:57:46it was like the weirdest psychological
- 1:57:48thing that had ever happened and
- 1:57:51and the way I reacted was I went into my
- 1:57:54room it was the guy I bought a house
- 1:57:56with
- 1:57:57um I went into my room and shut the door
- 1:57:59we had separate bedrooms
- 1:58:01I was in his room and went down the hall
- 1:58:04to my room and shut the door and I just
- 1:58:05remember hyperventilating
- 1:58:07and that's all
- 1:58:09and I was crying
- 1:58:11and then I went to get something out of
- 1:58:13my car
- 1:58:14and when he saw that he um maybe thought
- 1:58:17it was going to leave so he asked me for
- 1:58:18the key to his truck and pulled behind
- 1:58:20my car because he thought that because I
- 1:58:21was upset I shouldn't drive anywhere
- 1:58:23but I mean that's
- 1:58:26other than arguments no anchor issues
- 1:58:35that I can remember
- 1:58:38I kicked a dog once
- 1:58:42I was a freshman in high school
- 1:58:45and
- 1:58:47I love love love animals
- 1:58:51and one we had this dog his name was
- 1:58:54doggy boy and my parents until this dog
- 1:58:57that they have now have never been able
- 1:58:58to and I don't mean just them we as a
- 1:59:01family have never been able to care for
- 1:59:03a dog properly as far as giving
- 1:59:04attention and taking for walks and be
- 1:59:06consistent
- 1:59:07um so the stock stayed in the backyard a
- 1:59:09lot and he stayed tied up on you know in
- 1:59:11the shade with plenty of you know leeway
- 1:59:13at one point though he was untied and I
- 1:59:16took the trash out
- 1:59:18and he and this is when my little
- 1:59:20brother and sister were still in diapers
- 1:59:21and he tore this it was a diaper trash
- 1:59:24and he tore diapers all over the yard
- 1:59:28and of course I had to clean it up and
- 1:59:29when diapers get wet and they're like
- 1:59:32this jelly spongy weird stuff and
- 1:59:35I just I got
- 1:59:38I just kicked in with my right foot
- 1:59:40and he just moved a few feet and he
- 1:59:43didn't yell for anything but he just
- 1:59:44went
- 1:59:45he ran away and I never saw him go after
- 1:59:48that
- 1:59:49and
- 1:59:50I mean that's probably an anger issue I
- 1:59:52guess but
- 1:59:53well once I'm kicking dogs
- 1:59:55it changed my world as far as animal
- 1:59:58treatment goes because I just
- 2:00:01I've never seen him since
- 2:00:05and I need to apologize for that to him
- 2:00:07I know it sounds weird in my
- 2:00:09relationship with animals it's kind of
- 2:00:10like they're like people too you know
- 2:00:11they have souls
- 2:00:13you need to do is you need to apologize
- 2:00:15to the Travis
- 2:00:17did you just refuse and I can't help you
- 2:00:20anymore
- 2:00:22if you're not going to help yourself
- 2:00:25I can't I can't Jody you can keep
- 2:00:28talking to you blowing a face and
- 2:00:33I can't continue to listen to lies
- 2:00:39do you have anything else that you need
- 2:00:40to tell me yeah you would ask me what
- 2:00:43have I been up to in the weeks since I
- 2:00:44got back what did you mean by that
- 2:00:47this one way event
- 2:00:51because I know this thing has to be
- 2:00:52weighing pretty heavy on me
- 2:00:56I've been trying to
- 2:00:58put his death behind me
- 2:01:03if I
- 2:01:07I did anything that had anything to do
- 2:01:09with his death in any way
- 2:01:12it's not it to me I wouldn't it's not if
- 2:01:16it's not if at all well to me it is
- 2:01:19I would I would be more than remorseful
- 2:01:22is it maybe something you're blocking
- 2:01:23out of your head
- 2:01:25I don't think so I mean I tend to write
- 2:01:28everything down
- 2:01:30tend to I just finished the book the
- 2:01:32world has traveled and he said um
- 2:01:35the true definition of Sanity is
- 2:01:37dedication to reality at all costs
- 2:01:40so I think at times you know I may have
- 2:01:43you know prayed or meditated upon a
- 2:01:46certain way you know like like me being
- 2:01:49um wealthy or something like that but
- 2:01:54oh this is definitely reality
- 2:01:57we are sitting here inside of an office
- 2:02:01the Sheriff's Department
- 2:02:03then you are facing first degree murder
- 2:02:05charges
- 2:02:07are
- 2:02:09going to be booked into jail and
- 2:02:11eventually you will be brought back to
- 2:02:13Arizona and you will stand trial
- 2:02:18that's the reality and once you realize
- 2:02:20that I think you'll be better for it
- 2:02:25and if you really wanted to embrace
- 2:02:26reality you would sit here and explain
- 2:02:28to me why this happened
- 2:02:30but you refuse you refuse to embrace
- 2:02:33reality
- 2:02:42me
- 2:02:44um
- 2:02:45I've had worse issues with other people
- 2:02:46they're all still alive I'm still
- 2:02:49friends with my ex-boyfriends they're
- 2:02:50all still alive you know I've been doing
- 2:02:52this a long time
- 2:02:55and there's one thing that
- 2:02:57I can never get out of my head ever
- 2:03:00since the first day I talked to you
- 2:03:03there's an old saying that
- 2:03:05you know someone's just not acting right
- 2:03:08look into it
- 2:03:10you have not acted right from day one
- 2:03:14day one when I talk to you on that phone
- 2:03:17I just sense that you just you weren't
- 2:03:20acting like somebody who used to love
- 2:03:22this guy or who still loved them even as
- 2:03:25a close friend
- 2:03:27and even now when I told you that I have
- 2:03:30all this evidence against you and
- 2:03:33and that you're facing first degree
- 2:03:35murder charges you're
- 2:03:37you're just not acting regularly
- 2:03:40you're acting like somebody who's guilty
- 2:03:49you tell me
- 2:03:52I know because I've been doing it a long
- 2:03:54time it's taking me a long time to
- 2:03:56figure it out
- 2:03:57but within the first
- 2:04:0130 seconds to a minute of a conversation
- 2:04:03I can I know when something's acting
- 2:04:05right there's a certain way people act
- 2:04:08it's not like TV it's not anything
- 2:04:12I've seen it will be
- 2:04:14I see reality
- 2:04:16when I accuse somebody of committed
- 2:04:19penis crime or
- 2:04:21you know something very serious
- 2:04:24reality hits in and they definitely act
- 2:04:27a certain way
- 2:04:29and that's not you
- 2:04:31you act just like everybody else who I
- 2:04:34accused of doing a crime
- 2:04:36who did it
- 2:04:39there's no other way to tell you is it
- 2:04:41because I'm not crying
- 2:04:46it's not because of that what is it
- 2:04:48I mean I'm not going to change how it
- 2:04:50happens no obviously she's gonna change
- 2:04:52I mean I am okay you're sincere in the
- 2:04:55way you're acting
- 2:04:57but uh well you're just you're just not
- 2:05:00telling the truth
- 2:05:01how is it different
- 2:05:04it's not really something you need to
- 2:05:06focus on anymore
- 2:05:07I think you need to focus on the truth
- 2:05:09but it's something that you refuse
- 2:05:12so if you don't if you don't want to
- 2:05:14continue then
- 2:05:15then we'll just move on to the next step
- 2:05:17listen
- 2:05:22it's not that I didn't love Travis
- 2:05:26I still love him
- 2:05:27but
- 2:05:29I really needed to move on
- 2:05:32and
- 2:05:34the last
- 2:05:36what prevented you from moving on
- 2:05:39nobody was preventing me from moving on
- 2:05:41well
- 2:05:44the only person preventing me really
- 2:05:46from moving on was myself and until I
- 2:05:48made that step and I moved back I moved
- 2:05:50away and we communicated gradually less
- 2:05:54and less and less and I was fine with
- 2:05:56that
- 2:05:57um
- 2:05:58I haven't found the guy and the man that
- 2:06:01I want to marry the person I want to
- 2:06:02spend my life with but in my mind
- 2:06:05Travis did and I was happy for him and I
- 2:06:08thought there was also a part of me that
- 2:06:09felt if I stay I'm gonna jeopardize that
- 2:06:12for him as well we both deserve to be
- 2:06:15happy
- 2:06:16we both deserve to have
- 2:06:18you know be married in the temple
- 2:06:21um and that's where he wanted to go
- 2:06:27so I mean I didn't know that Mimi didn't
- 2:06:29feel that way I had never spoken to her
- 2:06:31except at church when I came down to
- 2:06:33Arizona I was always Avery
- 2:06:37the bishop who told me that you
- 2:06:39know but she had essentially turned him
- 2:06:41down
- 2:06:42and the last few
- 2:06:43um
- 2:06:44I mean now that I think about it he was
- 2:06:47really just the you know in his in his
- 2:06:51attitude and stuff and I just thought
- 2:06:52maybe that's just because we're just
- 2:06:53beginning to more distance ourselves
- 2:06:56um
- 2:06:58and you know he still had his trip
- 2:07:00planned to come up here
- 2:07:05I just the the reason I I don't know
- 2:07:09it's not that I'm not remorseful that he
- 2:07:11died
- 2:07:15I didn't kill him
- 2:07:17I didn't take his life
- 2:07:19you have anything to do with I have
- 2:07:22nothing to do with his death at all
- 2:07:25at all the reason I hesitate is because
- 2:07:29maybe this is something that's wrong
- 2:07:30with me psychologically as I think of
- 2:07:32the butterfly effect
- 2:07:33and it's like you could say that the guy
- 2:07:36pumping gas station can get pumping gas
- 2:07:37down at the gas station could have
- 2:07:39potentially because you see all these
- 2:07:40movies these funky movies where it's
- 2:07:42like this effect of this which affected
- 2:07:43this which Effectiveness I know if
- 2:07:45you've never met him could still be
- 2:07:47alive
- 2:07:48that's true yeah that's because you
- 2:07:50killed him no Jody you did I did not
- 2:07:53Joey
- 2:07:55can't convince me otherwise unless you
- 2:07:58come up with more proof
- 2:08:00that you didn't but I can't prove that
- 2:08:02anybody else no I couldn't have well
- 2:08:06what about if the car comes back that it
- 2:08:07was never even in that area it still
- 2:08:10doesn't negate the fact that we have
- 2:08:12this other evidence
- 2:08:19this is absolutely some of the best
- 2:08:21evidence I've ever had in a case
- 2:08:25convicted
- 2:08:26a few people on less than this well so
- 2:08:30I'm as good as Don right with that
- 2:08:32evidence
- 2:08:36I just can't admit to something that I
- 2:08:39didn't do if it would help
- 2:08:42if it would help my case and give me an
- 2:08:44easier sentence I know people plead
- 2:08:46guilty for those things and I don't want
- 2:08:48you to do
- 2:08:51that that is the absolute last thing I
- 2:08:54want
- 2:08:55well what I want to do is I want
- 2:09:07is I want what caused you to get so
- 2:09:09angry
- 2:09:10and the details on that would happen
- 2:09:14and it's something that you probably
- 2:09:15don't want to remember
- 2:09:17but it's something that I need
- 2:09:20because
- 2:09:21for me to finish a case completely I
- 2:09:24need to know
- 2:09:26not just the details
- 2:09:28but what was going through your mind
- 2:09:31because I need to present that
- 2:09:33as a full picture
- 2:09:35because if I don't I don't feel that
- 2:09:38I've completed my job
- 2:09:40then my job is to speak for him
- 2:09:43not anybody else
- 2:09:45my job isn't to speak for you
- 2:09:47the job isn't to speak for his family
- 2:09:50it's to speak for Travis
- 2:09:53and I know something horrible happened
- 2:09:54that day
- 2:09:56absolutely horrible
- 2:09:58something that could have been avoided
- 2:10:03whether something was planned I don't
- 2:10:06know
- 2:10:08whether you planned it or whether it
- 2:10:10accidentally happened or
- 2:10:12if something got out of hand I I don't
- 2:10:15know all I could do is speculate
- 2:10:18and I want to believe
- 2:10:21that you're not this cold-hearted person
- 2:10:24that could just go out and do something
- 2:10:26like this to somebody
- 2:10:27I want to believe that
- 2:10:31like a lot of people
- 2:10:34things got out of control
- 2:10:37and before you knew it it was too late
- 2:10:41that's what I want to believe
- 2:10:43and that's truly from my heart
- 2:10:46because I sit here and I've talked to
- 2:10:47you and and I'm talking to you now and
- 2:10:50all those conversations we had on the
- 2:10:51phone and I don't see a cold-hearted
- 2:10:54murderer like you would see on TV or
- 2:10:57that I've seen before sit across from me
- 2:10:59that's not what I see in you
- 2:11:02and I'm
- 2:11:05time to call it begging
- 2:11:06I'm begging you to at least come clean
- 2:11:09and tell me why
- 2:11:11because
- 2:11:13I don't want to leave here today
- 2:11:17not knowing because it's gonna follow me
- 2:11:20forever
- 2:11:24I wish that I had answers
- 2:11:25it's hard
- 2:11:29I'm
- 2:11:34you need to just let the answers come
- 2:11:36out
- 2:11:38there's just no reason
- 2:11:41there's just no reason there's no good
- 2:11:44reason why this happened there's never a
- 2:11:46good reason why somebody dies like this
- 2:11:52how many times was Travis stabbed
- 2:12:05and I'm not gonna sit here and
- 2:12:08show you pictures of him after the fact
- 2:12:11I don't do that that's not how I work
- 2:12:17that is not for me
- 2:12:19but eventually those photos will come
- 2:12:21out
- 2:12:39Joey we're here now
- 2:12:42so right here
- 2:12:54I think you're feeling the reality in
- 2:12:56the moment now
- 2:13:05I said I'm going to potentially miss
- 2:13:07miss out on with my family and I think
- 2:13:11of all the things that Travis's family
- 2:13:13is gonna
- 2:13:14this is totally true
- 2:13:19Eddie had brothers and sisters and I
- 2:13:22have brothers and sisters
- 2:13:25any
- 2:13:30isn't I fear
- 2:13:32[Music]
- 2:13:38it's not fair but this is where we are I
- 2:13:40mean you know that he's in a good place
- 2:13:42and I know that he's fine I know that
- 2:13:45he's doing great but what about all of
- 2:13:48his friends all of his family that are
- 2:13:52here and they're just going through all
- 2:13:54of this and I know that it's temporary
- 2:13:56but
- 2:13:57it gets so very much right now
- 2:14:07there's just no reason I would ever want
- 2:14:10to hurt him
- 2:14:14or whether you want to do is is
- 2:14:16different
- 2:14:18I'm just saying I don't think you wanted
- 2:14:20to
- 2:14:21I really don't think you wanted to
- 2:14:25foreign
- 2:14:30it speaks for itself Jody
- 2:14:34it goes beyond speculation
- 2:14:37this is Way Beyond speculation
- 2:14:41this is downright proof
- 2:14:44but there's no backstory to it
- 2:14:47all I know is that
- 2:14:53I need a story or else it's just cold
- 2:14:57cold
- 2:15:02cold you don't look like the person that
- 2:15:04would plan something like this
- 2:15:07you're just not that person
- 2:15:11I couldn't believe other things but not
- 2:15:13that
- 2:15:15but without the truth I can't paint
- 2:15:17another picture
- 2:15:24and it's going to be up to the
- 2:15:25prosecutor to paint that picture and if
- 2:15:27you want that prosecutor and I've met
- 2:15:29him and you don't want him painting that
- 2:15:32picture
- 2:15:34because he is
- 2:15:36good in what he does
- 2:15:39I've worked with him before
- 2:15:42and you allow him to paint that picture
- 2:15:43for you
- 2:15:46it's not going to be good
- 2:15:49it looks like you don't really uh need
- 2:15:52anything it just looks like I mean it
- 2:15:55looks like you don't even need a good
- 2:15:57prosecutor anyway
- 2:15:59so you're right
- 2:16:00I I have to maintain my innocence I
- 2:16:04can't admit to doing something that I
- 2:16:07haven't done
- 2:16:08like there's any part of me wants to cop
- 2:16:12out and say it no
- 2:16:14well if you're gonna cop out it's
- 2:16:16because
- 2:16:17you're telling the truth
- 2:16:19well that's not really talking about
- 2:16:21yeah I don't want you to sit here and
- 2:16:25tell me a lie
- 2:16:26to appease me that is the worst thing
- 2:16:29you can do for me
- 2:16:35but back there in that mind of yours is
- 2:16:38somebody screaming to get out and tell
- 2:16:40me what happened but you just came out
- 2:16:44foreign
- 2:16:50he has done nothing but I mean except
- 2:16:52for some mean words that he said
- 2:16:54people have said worse to me or just as
- 2:16:57bad
- 2:16:57except for that he's never he's helped
- 2:17:01me he's given me money he was selling me
- 2:17:03his car on the then why easiest terms
- 2:17:06ever
- 2:17:08there's no reason why
- 2:17:10it just happens
- 2:17:16okay
- 2:17:18there's just now well I have more work
- 2:17:20to do
- 2:17:22can you give me a rundown of what's
- 2:17:23going to happen from here when you leave
- 2:17:27yeah you're uh
- 2:17:30like just today for example
- 2:17:34well you'll probably be taken across the
- 2:17:36street to the county jail
- 2:17:38you'll be processed through there
- 2:17:40you'll be
- 2:17:42set in front of a judge at least within
- 2:17:4524 hours
- 2:17:47and uh
- 2:17:50there's a warrant for your rest
- 2:17:52and the bond is two million dollars
- 2:17:56if you can come up with a two million
- 2:17:57dollar Bond
- 2:17:59then the judge will decide whether to
- 2:18:01you know accept that 2 million or not
- 2:18:04at that point we're going to file
- 2:18:07extradition papers basically our courts
- 2:18:10of saying that hey you have someone in
- 2:18:12custody on one of our charges we want
- 2:18:15them brought back to Arizona
- 2:18:18or at least allow us to come pick them
- 2:18:20up and that's called the next tradition
- 2:18:22hearing
- 2:18:23you will be given the opportunity to
- 2:18:26either wave it and say that's fine I'll
- 2:18:29just go on my own Goodwill
- 2:18:32or you can fight it
- 2:18:34and say no I don't want to go back to
- 2:18:36Arizona what if I say I go on my own
- 2:18:38free will of course I would go yeah
- 2:18:41at that point the judge would say okay
- 2:18:42she's not fighting this so come get her
- 2:18:46and then we would go what if I did what
- 2:18:49happened then you would have a hearing
- 2:18:50it's like a little trouble
- 2:18:53basically a delays it and cause people
- 2:18:55that cares money
- 2:18:57and then you'll be transformed transfer
- 2:19:00transferred over to the Maricopa County
