That guy looks like he's not had a good nights sleep in a long long long time. Poor guy.
Yes. He shows more emotion than Jodi.
I'm best friends with his sister; he still has nightmares from it.
Shelli Goulding I bet :(
I feel so bad for him
Shelli Goulding did he testify in the 2nd penalty phase? I was always curious why the roommates were not called as witnesses? Hope he is healing!
I can't believe how graphically the interviewer describes Travis' death to his friend, who is obviously still traumatized after seeing his body.
Nancy grace has no compassion and she
Is a moron
Yes you can believe it...that's why you are tuned in because you know Nancy will cut to the chase.
It was five years prior to this interview that he had found it - he’s being paid 5 figures for the interview, in turn, exploiting his friend. So, he’s just as bad as Nancy, if not worse
Yeah, she's freaking stupid with most of her questions and keeps associating his trauma with hers. It's hard for me to hear the story and I don't even know him, but to say that to someone who actually knew him and loved him?? you have to freaking stupid and cruel. What would people do for views makes me sick.
Umm... Not his friends just a roommate.. plus he said he did laundry the day he died .. btw the police found the camera in the laundry machine.. also after they realize the time off death .. this guy say he washed his clothes after but when they found the body the camera was still in the washer machine.. plus he use to hangout with JODI WITHOUT HIS ROOMMATE AROUND EVEN THO THEY AIN'T FRIENDS..
Nancy, have a little dignity when you speak to people.
I HATE HER CRUDENESS, SHE'S SUCH AN ASS!!!
Lidia Lilli
Nancy Grace DOESN'T KNOW the meaning of dignity or class. She's disgusting, she's a drama queen and she only does it for ratings! She DOESN'T CARE WHO she's HURTING while she's TRYING to raise up the rating ladder
Impossible, no class with Nancy EVER!
Any time this woman annoys any of you, just watch the video where Elizabeth Smart schools her. Quite satisfying... ;)
I don't understand why people say they do not like Nancy Grace. Why are you here watching her if you feel she does not have dignity?
Nancy Grace is so tacky. Poor guy. Surprised she didn't ask him to go ahead & describe the corpse & how it smelled.
Rotten blood smell .
MJ Wilder lol I know
Miserable cow
Joseph Irizarry omfg I literally laughed out loud. Shame on me 😆
Lol. Right? Fuuudged up!! Poor guy.
She never listens well. Interviewees always have to repeat themselves. She's insensitive and rude. This was so uncomfortable to watch.
She interrupts so much and her comments are so crass and inconsiderate. Also, why does she ALWAYS have to bring up her own story when interviewing anyone?
Never got over it
What is her story?
My question to you is...why are you watching Nancy Grace?
@@jackanthony976 why do you keep defending her?
@@keychain3039 I find her very entertaining and over the top. So what of it?
I feel so bad for Zack having to relive this--He's clearly been traumatized.
He shouldn't have done interview.
Then why would Zack consent to speak to Nancy Grace?
JACK ANTHONY I am sure he was well paid
Umm.. IDK about traumatized .. do your research .. he lied many times to the police .. plus if Jodi dragged him then why was there no blood on the floor .. the blood pattern found show that 2 people carried him. He also told the police he did his laundry on the day of travis death which is where they found the camera.. plus he claims to not have seen any of them that day either .. and he got paid for the interview .. I don't see his real friends doing interviews bcuz it's wrong. Extra helpful people in a murder case is usually the murder(s)
I feel for this guy 😔. He is in need of support. Very sad
This man has PTSD. The black circles around his eyes, make me sad.
I was going to mention the circles...that's worrisome.
What if he always had those? You judging his appearance now?
Umm .. funny rumors has it he help kill him.
Nancy was being gross asking about specific details.
Dude's clearly still sick after having seen that.
It's like the time she asked Elizabeth Smart about the details of her rape and got shut down.
@@mochilochi Just lol at believing something that stupid. You seriously think Arias wouldn't have sold him out?
I absolutely detest the way Nancy almost salivates with excitement over such a profound tragedy. She's tacky and undignified and sensationalizes the facts in a grotesquely gratuitous, voyeuristic manner.
She has a horribly exploitative mentality, whereby she repeatedly interrupts her guests in the middle of a poignant anecdote, only to stoop to a despicably low level of tabloidesque, gutter-press journalism, whilst masquerading as someone with genuine concern.
Also, why does she always manipulate the interview to regurgitate the ancient story of her dead 'fiance' for the umpteenth time - so it becomes all about her ???
She really is a hideous piece of work!
I hate when she exploits families who are desperately trying to find a missing child and understandably wanting to get their child's picture and story out through every avenue available. Nancy uses them for sensationalism to get ratings. It sickens me. I refuse to watch her.
Yet, you continue to watch!!
@insidious yaaassss 😂
@@jackanthony976 We watched it to see what HE had to say, not to listen to her nonsense 😂 gtfoh
Agreed
Nancy Grace interviews are painful
Cause of that stupid delay
Watch her interview on the Jim and Sam show. It’s so satisfying
BrainArtOnFire bahahahaha ye
I can't stand Nancy Grace!
oh dear heavens, someone suggested NG might be good in bed. no way!
“what exactly did you see when your heart sank” he saw a chicken dancing to High School Musical Nancy
I laughed reading this comment. Thank you I needed that.
Silly Nancy
I think the dude is traumatized. I know I would be if I had scene what he saw. I don't think he acts crazy at all
straight up!
Kallihan Kokernot seen
Yes! Signs of trauma. Poor guy
I would
He'll have PTSD forever probably
OK, but why is she cross examining him? That's just horrible, poor guy
Yeah, she's trying to evoke emotion with her graphic words and rebounding with 'her' experience. She's a Dr. Phil!
@@paudsmcmack3117 yup, got that. Just the way she was pretending the guy had anything to do with it whatsoever made the cringe
And making it about her saying “I passed out” when she saw his casket and acting like she was so deeply affected by him when his own friend found him butchered in their home. That’s a slap in the face to Zach Billings. She’s something else.
Everyone knows Nancy tries to make everyone nervous.
She thinks he should have smelled something or noticed that Travis was not around.
She also is a victim so she can play the part really well.
See how she makes it all about her?
because the roommates were suspected to have helped jodi at the time
This has got to be the worst and most insensitive interview I've ever witnessed. Terrible questions, how did she get that job?
It's Nancy Grace, she's as delicate as a brick at all times. She made up the name "tot mom" for Casey Anthony who killed her kid, as if she couldn't say her full name like every other news reporter.
I’m asking myself the same damn question. That interview was HEARTLESS. As someone who also has PTSD it’s so insensitive and damaging to a person to bring up their trauma so casually and insensitively that it changes a person and how they think and not in a good way.
I thought the same. How the hell does she get these interviews? Poor bloke will have to go to therapy to get over that interview as well.
Also awful to speak so harshly about his neck wound to this guy is incredibly insensitive.
@@sarahtates yeah she's gross. Caylee Anthony was a person, not some faceless "tot" killed by "tot mom". I get that it helps her "remember" the victims she's talking about, but that's what every reporter has to do, IT'S HER FKN JOB! They manage to do it respectfully instead of "murder for pizza victim" or "too fat to kill". I find her so disgusting.
Damn this poor guy is still fucked up from what he saw. Seems like he's close to throwing up half the time.
Aw poor guy he looks so tired and sad xxxx
+Luna So do a lot of people I know. :(
so what dummy, it was self defence
PTSD
Fresh Love, wtf
He looks weird
This was 5 years after Travis was murdered. This guy still looks completely heartbroken. Im so sorry he had to be the person to find him.
PTSD
"what did u see that made your heart sink" HE JUST SAID I SAW A POOL OF BLOOD TO MY RIGHT. Stop poking at the poor dude he looks like hes about to break down this lady is so damn dumb lol
I was so thinking this exact same thing when she asked that. Shes a horrible tacky insensitive bitch .
Lol. That's what I said when she asked that question. Lol she stupid
No its, what EXACTLY did you see that made your heart sink
She’s just asking him to be more descriptive. He knows what he’s there to talk about, he agreed to the interview. It’s about a traumatic and heavy topic, but the point of the interview is to get the details. He knows he’s there to talk about these things, if he wasn’t able to he wouldn’t of said yes. They aren’t there to talk about the weather.
You are so wrong!
I hurt for him so when I watched, I saw what looked like a man trying his hardest to keep it together. Listening to his voice and looking into his eyes, this wasn't easy for him. He was nervous and so upset he had to pause and collect himself. God bless him and his memories.
well said and completely agree
hollie b it's heartbreaking
Actually the pausing was because of the lagging between the two channels. They were speaking to each other through internet or satellite and the connection isn’t very synchronized... I’m surprised I have to explain this... You probably don’t watch the news often do you?
Actually, I’m surprised you took the time to be more irrelevant to this video and typed all of that nonsense in response to my comment -based within the first 2-3 minutes of his most painful recollection.
Insensitive people probably wouldn’t see that though.. Shame to have to explain it.
It's terrible
His friend is obviously hurting. He is a hero! I'm glad he told his story to us, about finding Travis's body. Now he has a form of flashbacks of finding him. I just want to tell him, I'm so sorry for your loss. So sad. I wish he had of testified. And, she had the nerve to confront him knowing she butchered him.
I hear now that he "will" in fact be on the States Witness list!
edcjke He didn’t testify. I wish he did.
Sharon Jensen Very true. If they really needed him either side could’ve sent him a subpoena, but I’m assuming his police report was sufficient.
Hardly a hero. Look up the word. Poor basterd who found his murdered friend is the only description for this cat.
@@daddydoodoo9089 I don't feed trolls I let them starve. dfwm I don't care whos daddy you are ok!!!!
Nancy, this was NOT your finest hour!
Roommate: "I saw blood throughout the house. And I found his body in the shower"
Nancy: "When you say your heart sank, what did you see?"
wtf nancy
Yeah she’s deff a fucking bitch asking questions like this it’s strictly to get a juicy story and not to ask a friend of a victim. Smh she’s so cold
When Nancy talked about how Travis was almost decapitated was almost too much for that friend to hear. He looked like he was about to vomit. I'm glad she didn't ask him to describe the smell . She shouldn't of gone there ....just more trauma for this kid to go through. He looks like he is on the verge of a nervous breakdown.I hope he is getting counseling.
"When you say "I saw a pile of blood" what exactly made your heart sink?" Who is this interviewer? She would never be allowed on UK TV. She is such a terrible person. I don't know the woman, but it makes me wonder if she has ever got into trouble for her technique.
UK print tabloids are WAY worse than her though to be fair.
She was getting very brutal with some of those questions man! She was saying "i remember how i didnt want to see my fiancee's dead body bc i knew that image would remain with me forever. Did you feel that way when you discovered the body? What were you feeling when you saw Travis, dead in the shower?" Thats traumatic and she knows it, but yet she still keeps on with it!
Andrea Jimenez i actually think she does good job. sometimes it gets easier when you talk about it rather that keep it in all the time. and she asks questions others would like to ask. she just have to be like that. i cant imagine interviewer being too sweet and nice and over sensitive.
Andrea Jimenez she's just trying to relate to him
Andrea Jimenez Nancy anything for views grace
Nancy always hits hard. She digs into every story and is relentless with it. I miss her show. No one got away scott free.
fostered333 Hi, brother troll.
This is disgraceful journalism... stupid, sensationalist questions... “what did you see that made your heart sink”? ... seriously, take a wild guess 😡
Nancy disGRACEful is a loser interviewer and person. How did she ever get a job?
I didn't like how she really sat and described the decapitation wound like we don't all already know how fucking awful it was just from words and pictures
Let alone that poor man SEEING it
I’m disgusted at how Nancy grace is talking and being so descriptive to travis’s friend! She’s despicable! Truly!
Keep in mind she is only doing her job.
This poor guy looks so traumatised, tired and in a lot of pain. What a horrible thing to of seen. Very very sad 😭
Nancy is morbid and very inconsiderate in how she grills this roommate into describing what he saw when he found Travis..and she keeps returning to getting him to describe the details. She has absolutely no scruples or respect for Travis, in my opinion, or his family and friends, and more importantly, his memory. She should be ashamed. She even tries to cover up her rudeness by talking about her own fiancée's dead body. She is tasteless and trashy, and so is her show.
Slow clap very well said..
Lee Ann Downs I'm sure being a reporter Having to ask questions people more than likely called in or wrote and asked her or the network, isn't a simple job and I don't think there is a wrong or right way of getting such grave details. I wouldn't want to be a reporter. But she was an attorney so I think her questions shows her going toward that side. And her voice is just annoying.
She pushes Zack. I'm sure he has a scorching case of PTSD and she wants to hear every detail. Bullcrap, she didn't pass out in a funeral home! I hate Skank, but Nancy is right at the top with her.
+mizz2uall : No, the OP was right. Grace should not have interrogated Billings.
Billings discovered the remains of his friend. Grace claims victimhood because she discovered the remains of her fianceé. Which means, Grace should have more sense, based on her alleged experience, than to inflict emotional wounds on someone else who has experienced something she claims traumatized her. Not only is that common sense, it is the decent, proper and right thing to do. Add onto that, Grace elects to explain (in detail, I might add) how Alexander was murdered. Billings was already fighting an emotional response, as is evident by his NVC. Hence, it makes Grace a pig for pushing her "if it bleeds, it leads" agenda. Shame on her!
[Post script edit: Corrected an autocorrect created error.]
I agree.
She dyed her hair back to dark for two reasons... I’m guessing A she thought dark made her look more wholesome and B she knew if she got locked up she’d have horrible dark roots lol
She changed her hair color before she left California to Arizona.
Probably in an attempt to be covert.
Nancy ALWAYS NO MATTER WHAT makes sure we all hear for the millionth time that SHE is a crime victim. ALWAYS.
And a lawyer 🙄🙄🙄
This guy was in NO condition for any interviews. Shame on Nancy for her intrusive questions
From my point of view, the interviewer asked several morbid questions and she was overgeneralizing. Everybody behaves differently when tragedy knocks your door.
Nancy is so insensitive in this interview
Instead of having empathy, she keeps bringing it back to herself and fiance
She is disgusting and awful at giving interviews. So many examples of Nancy behaving poorly
why did she have to go into gruesome details when talking to the guy who found the body?
"How did you feel then when we now know she slashed his throat to the neck bone?"
she dyed her hair brown before the killing as seen in the photos of her taken on the day before she killed him and she had her hair brown when she was in the rental car
Yes before, but still because of... she felt like she knew she was gonna need to look different... she felt like she was doing a disguise.
She tried to make herself look as innocent and harmless as possible.
From that very intense blonde "partygirl" look to normal brown hair, with glasses, quiet, harmless "librarian" look.
Nancy Grace interrupts.
Thought it read Nanncy Disgrace...I thought he acted a bit strange,still don't believe he killed Travis,like some ppl.actually seem to think.I got mugged in the US once(Imeds'ID,cash,
Insurance, passport & other important stuff)When I eventually got a 6 months"crises"passport..(Missed my kids & felt totally helpless for several days)I looked something like this🦝The most expensive consealer on this planet wouldn't be able to cover those marks.I was already diagnosed with PTSD in my early teens;this happened nearly 20 yrs.later.Doubt anyone would allaw Nancy Grace on telly where I currently live(North West Europe)I've had lots of fun despite PTSD,thing is a woman like Nancy is fairly good at bringing out something in ppl.dealing with a serious issue of any kind. Thing is that something could be everything.There's just something about her looks/eyes,her interrupting(Yeah I know she works for media n'all but I also know several "media ppl"& none of them act like she does.I'm sure she'd make me shiver from my sofa overseas on a bad day,just from the way she acts/speaks.Another narcissist¿?Or just another Nervous Harriet...🤷🏼♀️
Yes Mimeko she is rude asf
He will never get over this and probably has severe ptsd. RIP Travis
"sorry we are talking about your loved one in such a cold clinical way.. now can you walk me through the emotions of when you found your friends COLD BLOODY DEAD BODY!? WHOS THROAT WAS SLASHED BACK TO THE NECK BONE!?"
Ashley Sparks I was in shock she even said that and by the look of it so was the guy
Jodie should be the reason why stalking & harassment should have legal consequences,jail time etc. No man or women should go through what Travis went through. I hope one day that will all change.
Does this woman really need to be so graphic?! The slitting throat comment was totally unnecessary
Poor Zach. It just seems like when he pauses in the middle of the statement that he , mentally, is trying to run from what he saw. Just my opinion.
I pray that gods comforts him and his wife is patient. He probably never goes a day without seeing Travis.😞
My heart goes out to this guy! You can just see on his face and hear in his voice how traumatized he is over all of this! He’s obviously going the through it! I hope he’s doing better now! 🙏
On top off all the sorrow for Travis Alexander,
I feel horrible for Zack, for finding him. He's a good friend of mine.
He was sobbing at the memorial.
Looking beautiful, Travvy is watching over all of us.
My heart goes out to Zack, he will have to live with this the rest of his life.😢😢
The way she's basically forcing him to describe what he felt when he saw his friend dead is disgusting. "Exactly what did you see that made your heart sink?" .... Ma'am , he was stabbed to death... NAKED... What tf do YOU think made his heart sink!!?
I hate Nancy.
She has spent 10 years of her life behind bars by now.
Now 11
Raise our glass and hope she stays in her cage for a lot more years
13 years....beginning July 2008
Doesn't anyone else notice how nervous he is while being questioned???? She's questioning him like she's investigating him. UGH THIS IS DRIVING ME INSANE
Maybe she is , dude was there with the body for five days and didn't smell anything
@@nathanielbristol5184 exactly. His friend AND roommate hasn't seem him in days. Knows where the spare key Is. I watched the interviene with the detective AND just read several need about it. Peoples prejudice against her were based ok His religiom
I wish that Nancy wouldn't make every crime related interview about her own "victim" status 🙄
How this guy and his girlfriend not have smelled the decomposition is beyond me! Marie Hall testified that upon entering the house from the garage, she immediately smelled a foul odor! Travis had been deceased in the house for nearly a WEEK the night they found him!
Tammy Ihnken mmm, something to think about.
I can't explain that either how come?? I can not! figure it out
Sincerely Shay watch ' jodi Arias the big satanic lie ' is shocking.
I also found intriguing, esp wen jodi said 1 man and 1 woman
Tammy Ihnken Maybe he didn't want to bring up.that fact becauae its in poor taste.
That poor guy, who can imagine that scene let alone have to actually see and deal with it. Bless him.
No Nancy is not being insensitive. When you've experienced such huge shock and loss, you can't be hurt more and it actually helps to talk about it. The worst thing is when people ignore what you have experienced.
Bull Shit!!
Enough with the floating pic's of Jodi who only dated him 5 months!!
Denise Munoz For real! Why even show her face? Why not show pictures of him with his family and friends who actually miss him?
This guy has great strength to go through that type of insensitivity! My heart still goes out to all who loved Travis
Nancy Grace should learn to talk to people who are grieving with a little more compassion. Shes like "how was Jodi acting at the memorial knowing that she slit his throat all the way back to his neck bone"?? Really? Who says that to somebody who found their friend dead in a shower? Shes so dramatic to point where she seems unsympathetic to this poor guy. There is no need to be so graphic and I'm sure she wouldn't appreciate it if someone talked like that to her about her husbands murder. Stop thinking about your show and think about how you say things to the people grieving a loss of someone they care about!!
+dawne f it was her fiance, and yes I agree she has zero compassion. Which is odd considering what she herself has been through.
She's stone fucking cold
@@tranquility9325 💯
This is the most insensitive interview towards Travis friend.
"when I opened the door, my heart sank as I saw blood everywhere"
Nancy: "so what did you see that made your heart sink?"
*Are you serious?!*
8:23 Nancy: *ENOUGH!!!! What the hell is your problem?!* I stopped right there for fear that you might have asked how painful it may have been. FFS lady the guy almost fainted!
Nancy should not have said that in a drammatical way.
This is crazy man, to say that to him
I agree!!! You can hear his voice breaking the minute he starts to answer to that. Zack appears to be really strong, being able to compose himself… if i were him, tears would be streaming down my face and i’d shiver the second she asks me that..I can’t even imagine that image on anyone.. he’s gone through more than enough trauma
Is it me or does it sound like Nancy Grace is torturing Zack Billings with her questions about him finding Travis' body and what were running through his thoughts at that moment? I'm sure that's not something anyone wants to relive in their mind.
I think it's fair to say that You'd be very correct!!! I mean you'd think that someone would obviously know that walking into a room & seeing your roommates & friend's pools of blood & dead body would be absolutely horrifying to say the least! It's ridiculous... I guess these tv hosts & interviewers Will say & ask ANYTHING For TV views, ratings & shock value! It's quite saddening, you'd hope that these tv hosts & interviewers would have or show some type of sympathy towards friends & family & show some type of couth when explaining situations or asking such personal questions. But unfortunately most of them dont! Here's the man who found Travis's body, he was A close friend, I'm sure that moment will unwillingly always be carried with him... It's something he'll never forget! & you have this woman interviewing him, practically screaming while talking, saying things about his slit throat & how is head almost came clear off!!! I mean REALLY!!! I think that's something that he & All of America already know! What happened to Travis Alexander is horrific & SOO sad! It disgusts me that people make A living off of other people's tragedies!
*****k You mean like the way she stood up for the Duke Lacrosse Guys that were being wrongfully prosecuted? How she stood up everyday during that trial to condemn and demean them, to call them rapist. And then when it was finally announced that the prosecution hid evidence and the guys had nothing to do with a rape, she all the sudden wasn't on air that night...nor did she apologize at any time afterwards. She doesn't stand up...she leads a witch hunt. She puts people on trial on her show....innocent be damned..she judges and convicts before people have their due process under the Constitution.
Rodney Fuller also 2 girls have killed themselves the next day after being on her show, Nancy tortured the hell out of those girls. I think both Families sued but I would have to read up on it again, its been awhile. But yea she may possibly be the biggest bitch on the planet
She got in trouble in Atlanta in a few different cases for with holding and falsifying evidence trying her best to send innocent people to prison for life. look it up. Yea she is a wonderful person
I didnt know the facts i just knew she had some problems there with misconduct,so i did have to look it up, Nancy has a right to earn a living like the rest of us but I have seen her interrogate grieving parents that were guest on her show and in my opinion she should have more compassion, and if she has stood up for victims rights then good for her. Maybe she should take up the cause of getting the people she wrongfully convicted out of prison.But she was one hell of a prosecutor even if she didnt play by the rules.
The most awkward interview. Is Zach okay he seems out of it
Let's be real. Travis Alexander was a complete douchebag. It is clear from reading his emails and texts to Jodi, that he was an emotional and manipulative bully who degraded, abused and belittled her. He used and dismissed her at his will. He discussed other woman, who, unlike her, were worthy of marriage, whilst calling her a whore and treating her like a sex object. He destroyed her self worth. His behaviour was utterly vile.
Did he deserve to die because of this? Of-course he didn't. Should Jodi Arias be in prison for the rest of her life for what she did to him? Absolutely, 100% yes. Were her actions in any way justifiable? Not a chance.
But, here's what i find frustrating. I don't believe for a moment that this killing was in self defence. It was planned. It was intentional. I believe that this was the act of a person who was so desperate and broken as a result of being psychologically brow beaten and down trodden. She is obviously mentally unstable. How anybody can lie so matter of factly after committing such a heinous crime is incomprehensible to me.
This was clearly a toxic relationship for both parties. It seems clear that there was mutual distrust between them, and an inability to allow the other to break off, but every media outlet that has reported on it, or written about it has focussed solely on the shortcomings of Jodi Arias. Travis Alexander has been portrayed as some kind of Church boy, when in reality he was manipulative deviant, who, while probably not physically, almost certainly emotionally abused this woman to breaking point. Rounded arguments and opinions don't sell papers though. Least not the same way the 'sex crazed killer' does. Just ask Amanda Knox.
I watch this video and it makes me sad that it's such a waste of life. For both of them.
He said that because their relationship fell off. Jodi was very clingy and according to TAs friends Jodi would act very inappropriately at professional events. Video of her appearing bored during TAs story about almost getting killed. She also scared TAs friends Chris and Sky to the point they told TA they couldn't meet at their home anymore. She stalked him, went through his emails, texted his females with mean messages. She was a jealous bitch and TA laid into her. I don't blame him at all for what he said to Jodi. He didn't want her anymore and was moving on and she went into a rage.
Couldn't agree more
Nina King Yes he does fit the profile of a covert narc..,he could have been using the triangulation technique with Mimi(the girl he was going to take to Cancun).But Damn Jodi didn’t have to slaughter and kill him like that..She gutted the poor guy
Whether or not he truly abused her, I question. But I do believe in Jodi’s mind she thought she was abused by him. Her identity was so wrapped up in this guy that it threw her over the edge and she had to make him pay for it. She deserves her sentence. I don’t believe in the death penalty but in this case I struggle with the jury’s choice. She didn’t have the history to support a psychopath diagnosis. She had a broken heart that continued to be torn apart by him. Clearly he was fine with having sex with her, but he wouldn’t even acknowledge her to the people dearest to him. When the person you love is embarrassed to be seen with you but willing to sleep with you it has to be excruciating. But this poor man didn’t deserve this death. He overcame so much in his very short life. What she did was so wrong, it borders on unforgivable. Did he make mistakes, yes. But they weren’t the kind that blacken your soul and scar you forever like her mistakes surely will.
Jerry Fallter She didn’t get that way from being abused by him or not anybody. She’s a born freak!
But wouldn't he have smelled the blood? Or the body decaying???
Jodi deliberately set out to manipulate and capture Travis' attention by using sex. I'm not being insulting when I say that for men that sex can be a powerful tool... Especially when a woman like Jodi is the one wielding it. She had no limits, no boundaries, and no self respect. I'm sure her behavior had backfired on her many times before but I think she was more emotionally involved with Travis so her rage knew no bounds. Yes, he could have handled things better but turning down easy, freaky sex would be almost impossible for any young man. Despite poor decisions that were made nobody deserves to be savagely murdered! She needs to stay in prison till her dying day!!
Jodi one dam nut job ,who got what she wanted, if I cant have you no one will.
Cant even imagine finding your friend like that. How did noone smell something foul he was in there for days
Lmao I just love Nancy. The conceit. Lack of consideration. Not listening. The interruptions. The inane chatter on her search to find other things to say as she disregards her guests.
I love.
21 years ago I saw a very dear person in my life, who passed away at a young age, and to this day, it still feels and pains me like that morning. You can never get that image out of your mind.
This poor guy. :( How horrible to find your close friend murdered in his room and then to realize he had been there for several days while life went on in the rest of the house. i do believe him when he says he thought Travis was gone on vacation. What a shock it must have been to open that bedroom door and see what he did.
I don't understand how he could have been dead in the house for 5 days and they were not able to smell his death.
That house would of had the worst odor. Lets say a man has a heart attack and he lies dead in his room/house. Within just two days his dead body would already have an odor of sorts. And thats natural cause of death, no blood no wounds. Travis was stabbed well over 20 times, major blood pools and his body left dead. THAT WOULD HAVE HAD THAT HOUSE SMELLING SO BAD... I could have sworn I heard one story saying friends of his knocked and knocked then broke into the house found Travis
Oh dear Lord, the poor roomate had to see that and then talk about it. I couldn't even imagine finding *my* best friend in Travis' condition upon being found. He sounds so grief stricken and heartbroken, that it makes my heart break with him. Zach, you are very brave for talking about this and for finding him. His other friends were too for speaking up and calling 911. He didn't deserve this.
This man SAW his friends body! Have a little respect for this man! He said that every time it’s brought up, he thinks about what he saw.. poor guy!
She dyed her hair on her way to Travis, I think. I'm sure I read when she picked up the rental car, at the start of the road trip, she was blonde but by the time she reached Travis she was brunette. Obviously, some form of disguise. Like if his neighbours saw a brunette they wouldn't think it was her, they'd know her as a blonde
my heart goes out to this man
Not saying any human deserves to be killed, especially in such a gruesome way. But let this be a lesson to you boys and girls...Don't go around playing with peoples hearts. You never know what someone is capable of doing. Why take the chance?
babiphat20 But most "people" aren't psychopathic murderers. I think your probably well-meaning caution/warning is inappropriate. It places Arias and her lunacy as some sort of befitting judge, jury and executioner. Don't play with people's hearts... simply because it's wrong.
Lol some ppl I swear. No shit sherlock...thanks for picking apart my comment.
babiphat20 that the heck how much more pathetic can people be.
babiphat20 Sorry if it annoyed you but I thought it worth pointing out. The reason not to "play with people's hearts" is basically because it's a lousy thing to do. Not because the likes of Arias may get really cross.
Scott Laux I'm as cynical about Mormon 'values' as is possible but d'you really feel "zero pity"? I can't believe you'd order him to be put to death for whichever lies he may have told. And would you appoint Arias as his executioner?
My heart goes out to him and all of the other Travis' friends and family!
I feel so bad for this man having to re-live the nightmare of finding his room mate all over again.
So Zack was in the house the entire time Travis was dead in the next room and he had no idea?
That interviewer was out of line. So harsh with her questioning- poor guy
My heart is hurting for his friend im so sorry you had to go thru that man
The curiosity wants me to see this, but Nancy Grace is making me gag in the first 3 minutes.
poor guy. so many people traumitised by this evil act. heartbreaking.
Sending prayers 🙏 angels light love and healing grounded energy to this sweet man. The trauma of finding a savagely murdered loved one leaves a never-ending scar. So brave to process this horrendous scene. Wicked wicked wicked perpetrator.
Nancy Grace just stop making him relive the horrificness of this. Fine with some questions but asking about the head almost being decapitated.. just please, please stop 🛑
I can't believe no one heard the gunshots or smelled the decomposition of TA's body.
How could he have not smelt the odor coming from the bedroom and how could he have lived in the same apartment and not go to check on his friend/roommate? Was he involved in the murder, was he sleeping with Jodi secretly?
i feel sorry for nancy, well not really cuz i dislike her ways also! :) does she have even 1 fan? people just dont like her. she is rude, bossy, she interrupts when she doesnt like what someone is saying, she just isnt a good reporter. bring on jane or greta. they are awesome at interviews!
Nancy is getting better. Everyone bitches about her, and says they don't like her. But she gets the ratings, so some of you lie...Guilty Pleasure. Nancy hates Jodi, she may kill her herself. She has NEVER invested this much time on any case, that I've seen. She is connected to this case from her Ex being murdered. I feel bad for N.G.
Yes, Nancy has many fans. Everyone who is on this blog is her fan..that is why they are watching her and commenting on her.
How did he not smell anything or hear the dog going mental and barking? And how did he not hear the friends ringing the doorbell and banging on the door loudly? makes no sense.....
I just wanna reach through the screen and hug this poor dude, I really hope he got some mental health help from this, I cannot imagine how traumatising this was for him
Nancy: "When you saw the body, did you think of Jodi Arias?"
Zack: "No, I did-"
Nancy: *interrupting* "When did you think if Jodi?"
FFS BITCH JUST LET THE MAN FINISH HE JUST FOUND HIS DEAD BEST FRIEND IN THE SHOWER WTAF
Exactly nancy is ignorant
I wish Nancy grace would talk less when she’s interviewing ppl
The thing is, people love to hate Nancy but she’s only asking the things A LOT of people want to know.
My heart is broken. For all the people who loved Travis . I pray comfort and courage to go on with out your loved one
Why do they keep calling Jodi a “bombshell” she wasn’t that attractive looking…. Calm down , evil isn’t attractive!!
I feel terrible for Travis's friends and family. He seemed like was a very loved and cared for, individual
He just contaminated a crime scene. If I saw that amount of blood, I wouldn't walk in. I would back out and call 911.
Nancy is so weird, lol.
Again Travis liked her only for one thing. But Jodi had no right to kill him. Obsession was the problem and then she took it far.
Her hair was brown in the pictures the day he was murdered.
She's actually doing a good job. She's shares being a victim of a murderer. He needs to talk and we need to see he's not ok, he needs support. I hope he continues to heal. Like everyone who knew Travis, he thought the world of him.
"His body. HIS DEAD BODY". LOL! You're the best Nancy!
Wow
The best at being heartless and insensitive, yea
It's like something out of a movie seriously I couldn't help but laugh. Like dear God
I cannot imagine walking into his friends bedroom and seeing his friend like that, omg
