Are you confusing this Scott with the other Scott Peterson, the one who was an LEO? I only know of Laci and the baby as this one’s victims.
I owned the house across the street from the Petersons at that time. The street looked like a carnival of TV trucks. There wasn’t a soul I know that thought Scott was innocent. Sleepy Modesto turned into a crazy place during that period and the Condit aid disappearance.
