Travis Alexander's Murder Case
When reading about Travis Alexander's murder case, parts of it I remember, and some of I don't remember. Rereading about this case, it was so sad because a guy who didn't do anything to Jodi Arias gets stabbed 27 times, his throat slit, and shot on the side of the head. Honestly, it is quite sad that such a beautiful girl could be convicted of killing her ex-boyfriend. Most people think it's always guys that murder people but nope, for once it was a beautiful girl named Jodi Arias that kills such an innocent man I feel that Jodi Arias trial became such a spectacle because the detectives on the homicide could not find anyone else that could have killed Alexander. They only had the evidence of Jodi Arias. They found the gun that was taken from her grandmother's house in Travis's house. They even found a fingerprint that belonged to Arias. This case went on for a very long time but I think the media was interested in this case because they just couldn't believe that a young lady would be willing to kill such an innocent man for no reason at all. In May of 2013, the case finally ends, and Jodi Arias could have been convicted of first-degree murder, second degree murder, or manslaughter. The case was very popular with the general public because I feel that most people just could not believe what had happened. It was a shock to everyone. The media will get into anything to get stories that are worth sharing with the world.

I so agree , the media will not follow a story that they believe will not sell. Sex sells and that is how they looked at Jodi Arias. They did anything they could to try to not find Arias guilty even when all the evidence pointed to her. Everyone was in disbelief that a sweet women could commit such a hateful crime.
ReplyDeleteI always say that one of the scariest things out there is crazy! A sociopath is one of my biggest fears. The way they can go through life innocently and then all of a sudden act out like this is frightening to me. There is certainly a shock value that comes with it.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that we can say that Alexander didn't do anything. Although no one ever deserves to get killed, especially stabbed that many times and then shot. We do have to understand that, we will not truly know or understand how their relationship truly was. Its hard to collect all information in cases like this. The media won't know if they really did have problems before the day he died, or invoked anything to cause Jodi to get to the level she was at to kill him.
