The Murder of Travis Alexander of Mesa Arizona

[_darricktevenson]

Travis Alexander was a Returned Missionary in Mesa, Arizona. Very charismatic. Very popular. In the Elder's Quorum Presidency of a Young Adult Ward. Very active. Temple recommend current. He was murdered by Joni Arias, a woman with whom he had a sexual relationship for four months. Never confessed to the bishop. Never turned in his Temple Recommend. Continued to wear the ring "CtR" (Choose the Right). After having sex on his bed for several hours, Arias shot him in the fact, and stabbed him 27 times. Then she washed the sheets, took a photo of his dead body, then erased it on his phone (police later recovered it...nothing is ever erased from a cell phone). Put the sheets and phone in a washer and washed them (to get rid of her DNA material from the sheets) and I guess she thought she was destroying the phone (no such luck). Why she did't take the phone with her, I don't know. She was panicking.

Anyway, on the phone were photos of him nude in the shower (alive), her nude on her bed, her slopping his knob, etc.

Now, let us say, Travis Alexander was never murdered on Saturday. I get into my time machine, and disable Jodi's car. She can't kill Travis. Then I go to Travis' Ward on Sunday, and I say, "Hey Travis, do you believe that sex in any form before marriage is wrong?" He would say: 'Huh! Fornication is next to murder, and so the Brethren have told us" I would say, "Are YOU worthy Travis?' He would say, "Well, none of your business, but of course yes!" That is after his boffing Jodi for four months--in secret. After all, he's not boffing a girl "that moment" so, in that moment, he is "worhty"


The POINT is this...Travis boffed Jodi Arias for four months. He was his "fun girl" He had no intention of marrying her. As one of my former Mormon friends used to say: "Boff 'em once--then dump 'em--that's the crazy bith rule!" In other words, if a LDS woman (or any woman) is sexy but "insane" you boff her one time, then dump her. Otherwise, she'll "kill" you. And this is exactly what happened to Travis. He boffed her probably 90 times, and then dumped her when he found a woman he intended to take to the Temple. Jodi went mad...and killed him.


My POINT is this....Liz....if you asked Travis before he was murdered "if" he respected Mormon girls, he would say "ABSOLUTELY!" If you asked him if fornication was wrong he would say "NOT ONLY WRONG...NEXT TO MURDER!" then he would probably boff another girl that nigh! THAT is the single Mormon males I knew! Sorry, but true.

Yeah, there were plenty of guys I knew like that in the Atlanta singles ward.

Two of them were excommunicated but would always show up to Church dances to prey on other LDS women who came from out of state. Those who didn't know of their reputations. The first friday of the month dance behind the Atlanta Temple was a popular activity for singles who came from Alabama, Tennessee and the Carolinas.

The strange thing was how successful they were in getting so many Mormon women to get naked and do the nasty.

So if you're point is that Mormons are no more virtuous than any other group, then you're probably right. For many young Mormons, life is all about image, and image can be maintained through lying.

I'll never forget the day the Bishop from the singles ward stood up during a special Priesthood session after conference and started talking to the men about some of the crazy rationales he had come across. He said he had guys come into his office with a straight face and claim that they were still virgins because they've only had anal sex!

ROFL!

Not sure what your point is other than you surrounded yourself with dirtbags.

You didn't know me and the guys I used to hang out with when I was single. Not sure if I can believe your lame story.

Well, I don't have any problems believing it. Mormons are not immune from the human ability to deceive. I knew missionaries who would put on the show of the perfect humble missionary, and then later get busted masturbating or making out with girls.

In my first ward the Bishop's son played the part, being a perfect example to everyone his age, until he got caught using LSD. Another kid I knew seemed to be as virtuous and obedient as you could expect to find in the Church. He never came close to swearing, he was always cheerful, always insisted on Sprite instead of Dr. Pepper, would always change the subject if someone raised a subject that was less than wholesome, Eagle Scout, clean cut, high grades, etc. And then his brother later told me that he found his hidden stash of porn while he was serving his mission, and when he returned, he caught him using it to help with his masturbation.

I guess he missed that Boyd K. Packer talk, saying masturbation leads to homosexuality.

But these stories are hardly extraordinary. It just seems so to those who have a hard time believing faithful Mormons can actually act contrary to what they say. That the image they present of themselves is really just a farce.

Wasn't there a study presented here some time ago showing that Utah had the highest per capita downloads for Pornography?

I agree that such things do happen among LDS persons. I had a number of friends get the GFs pregnant at around 18. They did marry in most situations. LDS people have all the same problems as others. Adults as well. Remember I was a bishop. After the first year nothing really surprised me. The point I would like to make is that Darrick's portrayal is not necessarily fair to extrapolate to ALL LDS. While we have issues I think most active believing LDS are not as cavalier as Darrick makes them sound even with issues of sex. Maybe he ran with a crowd that was like that. I am somewhat skeptical though as to the extent of what he claims. But my experience is most active LDS youth try to live the law of Chasity and when the break it they try to repair things best they can. Some are flippant about it but not all. At least that is the experience I have had.

I Personally knew Travis Alexander.

[_Joseph]

Hey derrick, did you used to date Tammy Fay Bakker?

[_Brackite]

Travis Alexander was originally from Southern California. I knew him when he was in Southern California. When I knew Travis, he was a very faithful TBM Member. He wouldn't even drink caffeinated beverages. He was a Virgin when I knew him. And as far as I know, he was a Virgin up until the time he met Jodi Arias. I never knew Jodi Arias Personally. I am hoping that she gets officially found guilty soon, and that she gets to spend the the rest of her life in Prison.

One thing that separates the Mormon sexually active person from some other sexually active person, is the ability to be familiar with and even possibly quote from the Book of Mormon.

Okay, what separates a sexually active Mormon from a sexually active Baptist?

Mormons can also stand up to do the tango.

. . . then he would probably boff another girl that nigh[t]! THAT is [sic] the single Mormon males I knew! Sorry, but true.

I really, really wish that I was one of the single Mormon males whom you knew.
