Drew Peterson's 24-year-old fiancée has returned to him their engagement ring and this morning moved out of his Bolingbrook home, according to the woman's father.
Bolingbrook police were called to the home of the former Bolingbrook police sergeant about 10:30 a.m. to assist Christina Raines' move out.
Police spokesman Lt. Ken Teppel said about five squad cars responded to a call by Raines' father, Ernie, who had come to Peterson's home earlier in the morning to help his daughter.
Ernie Raines said his daughter has moved back into the apartment she had shared with her boyfriend of more than a year. She also returned to Peterson the engagement ring and a cell phone he bought for her.
Peterson declined to comment on the details of the breakup but he did question the public's fascination with his relationship.
"Isn't it hilarious that the citizens in the country are more interested in my love life than the impeachment of governor?" Peterson said. "We have an impeached governor and every time I go on a date, they're more interested in that. I'm boggled. This is beyond me. It's like Drew TV."
Ernie Raines said he thought that an interview Peterson had done on "Nightline"--which aired Thursday--sparked her decision to leave him.
He said his daughter called him Thursday afternoon--before the "Nightline" interview aired, but after snippets were circulating in the media--saying that she needed his help moving out of Peterson's house.
But during his interview with the Tribune this afternoon Christina Raines yelled from the background: "I was leaving regardless!"
Why isn’t this in Breaking News with a spinning siren and a Faux News-Obama Breathless Blonde Bloviator Alert?
Because the Blago cameras haven’t found the Peterson home yet on Mapquest.
Since they think he murdered them but can’t prove it, he might have. I don’t know.
She probably fell in love with him before she found out who he was...
There, fixed it (sorry, couldn't resist).
I agree it wasn’t a smart choice; however, she was smart enough to use “regardless” correctly. :o]
Looks like she already has -- from the article:
Ernie Raines said his daughter has moved back into the apartment she had shared with her boyfriend of more than a year.
LOL
When his girls Dad drove up to get her stuff out of that scums house, Drew said FU.
This is a loving daddy and he did the right thing.

Have a feeling the relationship might go back before the last wife doed.
Smart woman.
