48 Hours

So I enjoy a good murder mystery. I DVR 48 hours every Saturday. It may be a bit weird and creepy, but I like it. But it's not everyday you start to watch it and the face that stares back at you is of someone you once knew.
A couple years ago Rocky's family was introduced to a business venture called Prepaid Legal Services by this man .
Travis Alexander.
We have met him several times and even spent some time in his beautiful home.
It came as quite a shock to hear he had been killed last summer. It was very weird seeing his face and hearing his story unfold on TV.
I actually ran into him at the store a few days before he died. Never did I think I'd hear of his brutal murder a few days later.
You can check out some of the story here. Or you can come over and watch it. All I have to say is it is amazing what a person can do and then lie about it.
Funny how our jails are full of innocent people just like his killer Jodi Arias.
Check out her mug shot. She's totally smiling.
If that isn't creepy, I don't know what is!

How crazy! I think I remember seeing that on the news. Can't wait to hear more about it at Bunco. Are you coming? Oh BTW the first link doesn't work.

I totally remember this story. I don't quite recall what the motive was though. And- you've inspired me! I went out today and bought a pumice stone for all of my lovely QC hard water!

Colton and I watched that too. I DVR it also. Not creepy at all. We figured being from Mesa someone we new would know them. Sad story.

Okay, I had to go watch this on CBS's website after reading your post. That's crazy! She talks so innocently and sweet. How sad for his family.

FAREEKY! I watched it too, she was a total creep. How could you possibly be innocent and not tell ANYBODY the second you "escape" and especially five days later. She was right though, there are a LOT of people that DON'T believe her story! Just a off question, how is Agnes doing? It's been such a long time since she's posted and I haven't heard anything from her for a while. If you see her around, tell her I said HI!

That's absolutley nuts! It's scarey to see someone you know on tv. Last year, an older man went missing on his way up to Camp Geronimo. I totally know him. Luckily they found him alive 4 days later.
