Have you ever had a panic attack? Extreme anxiety? Felt like everything was spiraling out of your reach - everything was chaotic? This is what I imagine abusers feel when they're losing control of a victim.
People leaving an abuser are at more risk of violence than at any other time in their relationship. At the vortex of imminent loss abusers will do anything to gain and maintain control of their victims.
I tend to think all May was spent with Jodi realizing she was losing control over Travis and coming up with nefarious machinations to regain that control. Ultimately that day in June she realized she could not control what was happening around her. (I tend to believe despite having sex with her, presumably, Travis reiterated after he wanted to end things.)

I entertained thoughts about Jodi and anxiety attacks but from reading what others have said about the psychopathic personality stress, anxiety is not a reaction with them. Rage is but fear isn't. So I started looking at everything Jodi does and her reactions from the premise of her being in control. She does show stress and I now view this as a chink in her controlling the situation, same thing with the tears.
I now think that the frenzy, the anxiety that I thought I saw in the amount of damage done to Travis's body wasn't frenzy at all. IMO it was aggravation, rage at him for not hurrying up and die that kept Jodi stabbing. She had a lot to do to stage the scene and this guy was still fighting to live and delaying her plans.
