Again her story changes:
...the defendant told the police that the victim was unconscious after being shot but then crawled around and was stabbed."
I thought she said that she originally claimed that she didn't see what happened to Travis?

Hi, Nobodyzgirl; great discovery! On her TV interview, Jodi said this:
"I heard a really loud pop. And the next thing I remember, I was lying next to the bathtub and Travis was screaming.....”
Then later, after she leaves the bedroom where she was left, apparently unattended and unmanacled:
“I saw Travis was on the floor in his bathroom on all fours. As soon as this guy left, I just got up and I charged her. And I ran straight down the hallway. And right before she could turn around even and see what was going on, I shoved her really hard. And she fell over him.”
[Then this summary: Jodi says the woman was armed with a knife, but can only “assume” the woman stabbed Travis.] “I didn’t see her stabbing him. He had some blood all over the floor. And there was some just coming down on his arms and on his hand, his right hand. I started pulling on Travis. And I said, ‘Come on, come on, come on.’ He finally just said, ‘I can’t.’ And then he said, ‘I can’t feel my legs.’

On the video, as I see it described and remember it, Jodi says nothing beyond "the pop" about hearing or seeing Travis shot or, for that matter, stabbed. Perhaps it is the discrepancy that you noted and other differences that prompted a police official to say after the airing of the interview that they hadn't heard that story before.
Jodi's alibi was extremely primitive. When its walls began to crumble in the police interrogation, I imagine that she tried hard to cobble together a more presentable theory on the spot. When she told the story again to the TV interviewer, the story (as you discovered) changed again. (To me, the TV story is shaped less to strengthen her alibi than to make her role more dramatic and praise-worthy. She becomes a comic book heroine who risks her life trying to save poor Travis and then make a forceful exit.)
P.S.

Interestingly, in an early newspaper interview, Jodi seems to be claiming that her DNA was found in the apartment only because she had spent time there. During the same interview, however, she indicates that during police questioning, she did break down and tell them:
"And while police won't release any details on why Arias is their suspect, the calm, soft-spoken woman told the Tribune on Friday from a phone in her jail cell that she is innocent.
"Originally, I just sort of, I didn't tell them a lot..." Arias said of her statements to detectives. "Then I just broke down and told them what I knew. It was almost like it was happening, like I was watching ... I was just very calm and rooted in my own innocence."
Arias declined to discuss all the reasons police believe she killed Alexander, but said that while investigators' evidence is "compelling enough," it is purely "speculation."
"None of it is solid proof that I committed a murder," Arias said.
Arias said detectives told her that they found her DNA inside Alexander's home, but said that her DNA "could've been found there just as easily as (Alexander's)" since she spent a lot of time over there
