I said years ago that i would rather get death than life, and that still is true today. i believe death is the ultimate freedom, so i would rather just have my freedom as soon as i can get it. >> so you are saying you actually prefer getting the death penalty to being in prison for life? >> yes. >> is anyone else surprised by the verdict? ryan byrnes is one of jeddys ex-boyfriends. he joins us. are you surprised by the verdict? >> not unexpected. >> when were you boyfriend and girlfriend? >> i m...

Murder? >> i think the biggest reason was is because that relationship was such a toxic in and out relationship. i this i travis genuinely wanted to get rid of her. what he show, they show four arguments between them. he said things you should never say to a woman, no doubt. but the four conversations, i think they came because he loathed himself when he gave inner to her sexual aggression and she got back into her life and he wanted to get rid of her and every time he let her in he loathed her....

Thousands of questions was an utter waste of everyones time. >> thats the problem with this case. in the actual case itself, you technically, they have already done the penalty phase. i mean, shes been on the stand and the psychiatrist has been on the stand. this is going to happen. when they put travis family, thats going to be maybe the difference. >> what were the lawyers like after the verdict isnt defense populars? >> reporter: they didnt say a word at all. jodi was not happy with them. one...

Talked about me being the horror of the state because i was so willing to offer up information and of it to the state about the license plate being upside-down and many things like travis phone and she had to read into it and find out she didnt think he was being as faithful. all that came from the communication she had with me because thats what she admitted to me why they broke up and why she lost trust which is why she had to be straight with her answers on a lot of those questions. >> when y...

I really believe that. >> reporter: i agree. i agree. i think there are two jodis. she has stuck by her story. i asked her about the gas cans and the gun. she said there were pictures of her and her sister out in the desert or the wilderness on the day of the break-in where the gun was stolen. pictures of her with bruising on a hashed drive. she said there was evidence her attorneys never brought in. she talked more about that than being sorry. >> troy, one of the things she was charged with was...

She feels and she didnt expect it to be premeditation, i think she -- she coined of noise there was premeditation, theres so many things. you look at the text message between travis and jodi on the 26th when travis said i dont want you to be sorry, i want you to know how evil i think you are. and even offering that hes willing to tell people what shes done. nobody really knows what travis means when hes saying that but people in the inner circle think travis new something pretty deep about jodi....
