But also I think he actually cared for her, not in a marriage way, but in a friendship way. He seemed to do a lot of things for her just out of kindness - loan her money, his car, let her stay at his house, let her eat whatever she wanted at his place, probably paid for things if they went out just out of kindness cause he knew she didn't have a lot of money. So he was coming from a kind-hearted kind of place, and Jodi took all of these things as a sign that he would be willing to marry her. Cleaning the house for money was I'm 100% sure Jodi's own idea...he probably was gonna just loan her money, and she said something like, well why don't I clean your house for you cause i feel sooo bad Travis just taking your money (fakey fakey). I'm sure he would have helped her out with anything if she called him needing help for whatever. I think the defense obviously HAS done a good job pushing the sex sex sex, since that's what a lot of us even talk about. The defense has been about sex from Day 1, and Jodi crammed it into the jury's mind with her endless days rambling about it on the stand. I believe their friendship was NOT just about sex. It's this fact that is the reason they kept coming back together despite everything she did to him - their relationship was more than just sex - phone calls, text, e-mail, etc etc....not ALL of those were sexually-related. It was in his kindness I believe where she found his weakness.
I agree that in the beginning he really liked her, but as time went on he began to see what all his friends were warning him about was likely true, she was a big phony, no substance, etc. I think he was just such a sweet guy at heart that he helped everyone he could, whenever he could. I do think he helped her with things because he felt guilty over still having sex with her, knowing he did not really want to have anything with her anymore. I do believe it was all about sex for him towards the end. I don't like it, but I am just saying Travis is not the first man in history, nor will he be the last to have the separate girl you take home to mom and the girl that avails herself to you. In that way, I think everyone on the jury knows this goes on, and with otherwise good men....so this does not equate to him being an evil guy that had it coming. That is all I am trying to say. John F. Kennedy was beloved, for example, as was Martin Luther King, but we later learned indeed they both had affairs. Travis was just a man, and he did NOTHING to deserve being murdered. I hope she gets the dp. I really do. I think she deserves it.
