Our Friend Travis

Travis Victor Alexander was a good looking, charismatic, entrepreneur and motivational speaker. He was in the prime of his life enjoying good health, financial success, world travel and a bustling social life. But, things weren't always so good for him. His life began in dismal circumstances, and tragically, it ended worse than it began. He was born to drug addicted parents and suffered many of the worst privations of life. His family was poor and his parents were neglectful and abusive. He was teased and bullied as a small child and had few, if any, friends. Rather than allowing himself to be victimized by his past, he used those negative experiences to propel him into a life of abundance and success.

Like many single, thirty-year-old men, he was dating in hopes of finding Mrs. Right, so he could get married, start a family and live the good life. Unfortunately, Jodi Arias, one of the women he dated, was a psychopath who could not accept that he did not want to marry her. After stalking him, stealing from him and violating his privacy in the most vile ways, she planned out and executed his murder.

When the case finally went to trial, it became one of the highest profile murder trials in recent history. On May 8, 2013, his killer was convicted of first-degree, pre-meditated murder. During the grueling, ten month trial, which was in large part a circus act of character assassination, lies and fiction, Travis’s life was purposefully distorted and despicably misrepresented. 

Our Friend Travis is a book about the real Travis Victor Alexander; his life, his light, his triumphs, his mistakes, his death and his legacy.
