At first the couple comes across totally cool, but I think they're a little off probably because they are Mormons. If I offered a room to my buddy and his gf because they never get to see each other I would expect them to hook up. In fact I'd bring them breakfast the next morning and give them high fives. So i think these two are a little screwed up, I guess it depends on your view of sex.
I just think it's ridiculous that the wife thinks it's odd that she's all over Travis, like just because Jodi is showing a ton of affection, there must be something wrong with her. And then to make them sleep in separate bedrooms :? my parents wouldn't even do that. And then to call her crazy because she was listening outside the door, the poor girl probably came upstairs to hook up and overheard June Cleaver talking about her. I'd be pissed too.
I wish the show would have had at least a couple of people that knew Jodi instead of all the interviewees being related to Travis.

One of the big views in mormonism is that premarital sex is not acceptable. It obviously happens, but it isn't condoned or encouraged, so why would two devout mormons think anything else then that these two other devout mormons didn't need to be sleeping in the same bed doing things mormons aren't supposed to be doing? That part I get, and I'm guessing it was just sort of an understanding. as far as the PDA goes, its also something I don't think is encouraged. Mormonism is a very conservative faith. I don't think the way they were thinking is off at all considering their religious practices.
It would have been nice to see more from Jodi's corner, just to get the full view of both the victim and the accused. Not saying I think she's innocent, but its interesting to see what people who really knew her thought. Its likely that none of them wanted to speak to 48 Hours considering everyone in the country thinks she guilty. They may have figured it would be a slanted project. Who knows?
