To start with, I don't know if Scott killed Laci.
Only Laci, Scott and the real killer (if it isn't
Scott) know this.
Anyone else is just guessing.
------- His wife's body was found only two-to-three
miles from where he
supposedly fished that Christmas Eve (some
sixty miles or so from their home).
The Berkeley Marina is some 90 miles from Modesto.
Since Laci Peterson's body had been in the water quite
some time before it was found, I don't know how
accurate a coroner will be able to determine the date/time of
death or how long the body was in the water.
Since Scott stated very early on, within days of her disappearance,
that he was at the Marina, it would be easy for
her killer to dump her body anywhere nearby, and make Scott
look guiltier. It also would have been
easy for Scott to do.
Bart reply: Good point - the media never bothers to make that
clear.
Did Scott drive past 30 great dumping places, just to get close to
the 'good fishing?'
---- He took out a $250,000.00 insurance policy on his wife's life two months before her death,
There have been several stories about this policy,
but I have seen nothing that states only two months before
her death. The two stories we've heard
the most are that he got the insurance policy shortly after she became
pregnant (she was 7 1/2 months pregnant at the
time of her disappearance), or that the insurance was on both
of them, and they got it when they purchased
their house, about 2 years earlier.
---- traded in her SUV a few days after she was reported missing,
FALSE. The SUV was initially impounded by
the police, which would make it difficult to trade or sell.
They impounded the SUV, along with Scott's boat
and truck. The SUV was returned, the truck and boat
remain impounded. He traded the SUV for
a truck sometime around the end of January; a month after Laci
was reported missing. He supposedly did
this because the SUV was unreliable, and he needed a truck for
his work, plus he couldn't afford the SUV payments.
---- and put the house they shared on the market
long before her body was found.
FALSE. Apparently Scott and Laci had talked
about selling the house before Laci disappeared,
but they never did anything about it. The
house has not been put on the market.
---- It seems he knew she wasn't coming home
(surely a loving husband would have wanted
to keep the house in case she one day found
her way back).
Scott did apparently look into selling it, after
Laci disappeared, because he didn't want Laci coming back
to it, after whatever happened to her.
If you believe this story, it sounds like he is a "loving husband" that
didn't want her to have to relive the trauma
of whatever she went through. Anyway, about a week after
looking into, he decided not to put the house
on the market anyway.
---- On the day the police found her body (and
the baby's), Scott Peterson didn't even bother
to present himself at the police station to
inquire of the details.
On the day the police found her body, the day
after they found the baby's, they only suspected it was Laci
and the baby. The DNA tests that proved the bodies
were of Laci and the baby were not released until
after Scott had been arrested, so it would be
difficult for him to present himself at the police station.
He was also in the San Diego area, supposedly
with his parents, quite a distance away Modesto, about 450 miles.
---- When he was arrested a few days later,
he was in transit (no one knows to where),
He did happen to be in a car, and he was in the
area of his parent’s home. I have no clue if he was going to a store,
coming back from a gym or about to flee to the
Mexican border. It is my understanding he had been staying with his
parents.
---- had dyed his hair blonde (he was originally a brunette),
He says he had been in a swimming pool ... sounds flakey.
Bart's reply: I agree.
---- and was in possession of his brother's driver's license and $10,000.00 in cash.
No substantiation, other than the newspapers reporting
it. I've also heard that he had far less than 10K on him.
Also the drivers’ license has been reported to
be his brother's or one from Florida.
---- A win for [Geragos], though, would mean that a murderer goes free.
I'm glad I don't live in the guilty until proven
innocent world this person lives in.
Bart's reply: But
you do.
That's one reason this should be talked about. If not for Geragos,
Scott would be just another helpless,
"We all know he's guilty" victim
of the media scandal machines The public wants Scott to be guilty,
so the money-grubbers are feeding that fire. It's about maximizing
profits - not telling the truth.
------------------------------------------------------
It seems this person remembers the facts that
circumstantially prove him guilty and doesn't seem to catch
the news articles contradicting any of those
"facts". Granted newspapers today hype what sells papers
and buries any admission of incorrect information.
Other than the items I've marked FALSE, when it
comes to the alternate explanations I've given,
they come from the same media that has evidence
that has proved him guilty in the court of public opinion.
We really don't know what the truth is right
now.
Personally, I figure he probably did it, but who
knows, stranger things have happened.
Hopefully the facts will come out at the trial.

Bart's Reply: RJH, I hope we get more facts about this non-historic
event than we did
JFK's murder,
RFK's murder, MLK's murder, who was Deep Throat?, Neill Bush's lunch
with John Hinkley's family
just before he shot Reagan, Iran-Contra and why Bush had to pardon
everyone to keep them quiet,
the Poppy Bush Telex to Saddam, what's in Reagan's presidential papers
that Cheney must keep hidden,
the racists who ran the Arkansas Project and Clinton's impeachment,
the Rape of Florida 2000,
what the B.F.E.E. knew about Osama and his 9-11 motives and
what really happened to Saddam's WMD.
Yeah, ...I'm holding my breath, waiting for the "truth" on Laci Peterson's murder.
Thanks for writing that.
