Scott Peterson Sells Missing Wife's Car

KABC-TV news Los Angeles ^

People have a fascination with crime stories that will never end, regardless of world events.

People are fascinated with crime stories that never end? Or do you mean the fascination will never end?

[spectre]

...pong! :~)

[spectre]

Both?

Yikes, better look in the trunk (caveat emptor?!?!?!)

Scott Peterson killed Laci Peterson....thats why we are talking about him.

And who was Laci Peterson? No offense but, should I know?

Not to sound crass, but there are many murders which take place across this country.

[Dr. Frank fan]

I seriously thought by the way the media talked about Clara Harris that she was already famous before the murder.

I don't know who Clara Harris is either. :)

I'm feeling more uncool every second...

[uvular]

Scott had issues with the house(?) and didn't want Laci coming back to it? What the heck does that mean?

Did Laci find him with yet another woman in her own house? Why wouldn't she want to come back to That home, where they had supposedly fixed up the nursery for their son?

[Dr. Frank fan]

Well, then why are you still here?

Because I would like to know who Scott Petersen is, and why this possibly murder case is of national importance. Was that not clear?

[Dr. Frank fan]

Wasn't Sept. 11 supposed to end America's infatuation with these kinds of sensational news stories?

I had thought. But maybe we can look on the bright side, the return of a shallow obsession with sensationalistic crime stories may indicate that we're winning the war on terror.... :)

I mean sometimes I really do long for the quaint superficial days of pre-9/11, when Gary Condit / Chandra Levy was important and fascinating, when Bush was "putting arsenic in our water", and so on... Oh for the days when we didn't have real stuff to worry about, right?

Yes there are, and this is one we have chosen to discuss at this time.

[spectre]

Dr. Frank, with all due respect, do you not own a TV? You're kidding with us, right?

Turn on the news......any channel should be able to bring you up to par very clearly..... so you don't have to keep asking who what where every other post.

[The Duke]

I'm thinking that he went to his favorite shark fishing
spot on that fateful Christmas Eve.

[wizzler]

Yes there are, and this is one we have chosen to discuss at this time.

Right. That's quite clear. But the question wasn't, "Which murder case are you discussing at this time?" The question was, "WHY are you discussing this case at this time?"

[SouthernFreebird]

the return of a shallow obsession with sensationalistic crime stories may indicate that we're winning the war on terror

your either on the wrong thread or your just a troll. Nothing here to interest you.... try another thread.

[Sungirl]

This guy is just full of sentiment......

[Dr. Frank fan]

[Not to sound crass, but there are many murders which take place across this country.] Yes there are, and this is one we have chosen to discuss at this time.

As is evident.

I was wondering what reason for this there might be.

It is apparent that you don't have an answer for me. That's okay. Thanks for trying,

[wizzler]

Actually, it's a quite legitimate question, and Dr. Frank isn't the first to ask it. It certainly doesn't make him a troll.

And if this isn't the right thread in which to ask it, which thread is?

"Please pick up the pace, Modesto P.D.!!! We need you!"

I'm afraid that will be a long wait. They have no case. Unless they can find the body and tie him directly to it, he's gotten away with a double homicide. You may think this next absolutely crazy but it may happen. Both he and OJ are golf nuts. I find it distinctly possible that you will someday read a story about a round of golf they played together. Don't say impossible! That's what people said 10 years ago when Rush said they were coming for your SUV!

[Dr. Frank fan]

Dr. Frank, with all due respect, do you not own a TV? You're kidding with us, right?

I do own a TV, but I am not kidding with you. I watch very little TV - mostly Simpsons and, sometimes, Sunday-type news programs. I also use it to view movies on video quite often.

As a result I haven't learned anything major about "Scott Peterson" using the TV which I own. (And I had ignored most threads with "Scott Peterson" in the title, till now; perhaps something about the banality of the headline "Scott Peterson Sells Missing Wife's Car" induced me to actually click.) Anyway, so that is why I am asking. I do apologize for my ignorance (and uncool-ness).
