Expert suggests Peterson bodies draped in random debris unrelated to murders
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — A forensic examiner suggested Tuesday that a length of plastic around the neck of Scott Peterson's son was unrelated to the fetus' murder, a blow to the defense claim that the plastic points to another perpetrator.
Peterson's lawyers had said the positioning of the plastic loop indicated assailants wrapped the 4-foot-long strand around the baby's neck after it was born alive. Laci Peterson was eight months pregnant when she vanished Dec. 24, 2002, and her husband was under near constant police surveillance after her disappearance.
Criminalist Pin Kyo of the California Department of Justice, however, seemed to lend credence to prosecutors' theory that the fetus the couple planned to name Conner was expelled from the mother's womb after Peterson dumped her in the San Francisco Bay and the plastic loop was only trash that washed over the baby's head as the body floated toward the bayshore.
Kyo, spending her second day on the stand as a prosecution witness, said the loop was "chemically similar" to plastic debris recovered near Laci Peterson's remains and noted that it was not tied tautly.

They must have served raw onions for lunch in the prisoners' cafeteria.

He can cry on cue, it seems.
ROTFLMGO!
That reminded me of a commercial I hear on the radio every morning. Its an awareness comercial to have people put their children in booster seats, but the commercial just cracks me up.
It goes something like this.
Jeannie (or whatever the kids name is) see that hornets nest up there near the roof? Now take this swatter and climb up on that ladder and with that swatter knock that nest out into the field.
But mommy I am scared.
Just get up there.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Scream! Will they bite me?
Silly girl hornets don't bite they sting.
SCREAM! OW! OW! OW! GET AWAY FROM ME! SCREAM! SCREAM! SCREAM!
I crack up every time. Then there's the one where the father sends the 4 year old son out to walk the 90 lb Boxer. LOL!
Well said!
If Peterson goes free, I am available...FREE.
Tee hee!! We're getting slap happy. LOL
GOOD NIGHT ALL!! CO
Well, my kids are all home, the vcr is set for a Farscape Marthon, so I have to watch the hurricane upstairs.
Good night all, sweet dreams. |-)
Nightmares for you, Scott! >:-(

runningbear just in case you didn't see Rambler7's post he/she wants pinged, but be gentle.
Hi CO LOL sometimes I am lucky to get to sleep by 5 am...insomia
And YES YES YES CO it was a great day....The TH's are lucky that Ivan is happening because I haven't seen much reported tonight on the great events today in the courtroom
LOL....
you are pinged or notified of new stories of interest on Scott and Laci Peterson, as they arise in the online news...
LMAO!!! I don't know who's funnier...you or the Devil!!
There was only a quick mention of the concrete match on Greta last night. She said something like, "the defense has to explain where the rest of the concrete is." Something like that.
I understand that most of her coverage had to devoted to the hurricane threat, but she could have at least made a bigger deal out the concrete testimony...but she won't because it didn't score points for her buddy MG.
You made that post on the 15th. Here it is 3 days later and I just finished reading (among other things) the cement guy's testimony. And the concrete does NOT match!!! And the guy was a GREAT WITNESS!!! O'Neill, wasn't that his name? He was fantastic!
You bet she figured it out, at least, some of it!They were practically leading separate lives in December.
And the latest is that now there's this couple who say they heard a loud argument btw Laci and Scott, a few months b/f the murder. I'm sure you read that article--I read it on here somewhere.
Is there another commercial where the guy sends his pregnant wife out to walk the 90 lb. Golden Retriever down a muddy, unpaved lane to a misty park where toothless murderers lurk?
