Exactly, while I'm glad that women are no longer considered guilty, just b/c they have active sex lives, I hate to see the same thing happening to Travis, and the pedophile business is so evil of her. I'm still behind in testimony and I'm so confused about the pictures she took. I mean did she take the pictures of Travis purposefully? Her sending the Grandma flowers and then telling about the baby names, I just don’t believe Travis was thinking she was marriage material, and that enraged her. |
They were (according to her) at first doing a "Calvin Klein" type shoot of him in the shower - bc he was proud of getting in shape pre-Cancun trip (which he was leaving for the next day). So, many of the pics were purposeful. During the murder itself, it's clear that she either had the camera in her hand for part of it, or she stepped on the camera - causing some inadvertent pictures to be taken. After the murder, she erased the pictures - but they recovered them from the flash card.

I don't get the photo thing either or what that was all about but in that last photo, that man looks scared to me. When he's looking right at the camera and all wet - he looks petrified - like he just saw a full-grown tiger walk right up to him or something. Looks kind of stunned on his way to dismay and fear. And today in watching the HLN post-trial coverage, they showed photos of her pant leg and part of his head and arm on the floor! I have no idea what was going on with all of that.
Does anyone understand if she shot him first because he attacked her, what was he doing while she was running out of that room into the bedroom and closet and getting a weapon and coming back to the bathroom with it? Has anyone ever heard how she did all of that and came back to shoot him without him being able to stop her during any of that episode of action? Of course, he was stabbed by then, he had to have been fairly badly injured or that guy would have stopped her - knowing she could be going for a weapon IF he had known one was in the house. It sounds to me as if some believe she brought the gun with her and it wasn't in any closet at all but in her purse. But I haven't really paid any attention to any of it until this week. So I'm half-heartedly playing a bit of catch up.
Also, a woman in her thirties, I've never heard what her occupation is and how she supports herself or who is paying for her trial? I did a search for that on Google and can't find anything. |
The pic you mention in the first paragraph of her leg is when they think she may have been starting to drag him back to the shower, where she left him. I too have been inexplicably drawn to the picture where he is wet, and looking directly into the camera. Supposedly, this was part of the 'calvin klein' type shoot. However, the look on his face contains more emotion than just trying to say 'this is my sexy face' -- he's got some intense thoughts going thru his head at that very moment.
She claims she shot him first, however, the coroner *thinks* the shot was last bc there was no hematoma/blood pooling in his brain, at the site of the shot -- which can mean that the heart had already stopped beating. However, since his body was so decomposed when they did the autopsy, the coroner couldn't say this conclusion was an absolute.
As for her employment, she was waiting tables and trying to start her career w/ Pre Paid Legal - where Travis worked as well. Apparently, a lot of young Mormons work for Pre Paid Legal, I don't know why...probably bc it's owned by a Mormon, maybe...?

Some are saying that she planned this photo shoot so that she could get him in a vulnerable position. During the shoot, some of the pics are him sitting on the floor of the shower -- they're saying that when he was sitting in that position, that could've been when she started stabbing him. If the shot did indeed come last, I too am mystified as to why she shot him. Maybe to make it look like it was a huge self defense struggle, and to imply that she tried to shoot him - but he kept coming at her so she 'had to stab him' then...?
The only injuries she said she had was to her finger - that it was cut. And this is after she said he bodied slammed her to a hard tile floor, they had a massive struggle etc. If she did stab him first, I'm surprised she didn't have way more obvious injuries bc he is HUGE compared to her. I almost think it went down like this, given how few injuries she had: she tried first to stab him in the shower, he was injured but functioning and got up, she got the gun and shot him, he went down and was dying, she then proceeded to stab him in extreme rage - hence, the 29 stab wounds.
