That pos STILL has that smirk on his face.

For sure I thought it would have been long gone by now.

He also receives numerous letters from female admirers who send him checks for his commissary account

Stupid is as stupid does.

While many cons plaster their cells with pictorial collages, Peterson has only one photo hanging across from his bunk: a smiling shot of he and his wife, Laci.

Sick.

Is it too much to ask for major publications to hire people who understand basic grammar?

Wow... 4 x 9 cell. What a way to spend your last days (or, in California, your last years). Plenty of time to think about what you have done (and not much else to do).

Here’s a video tour of a 6 x 9 foot Florida death row cell. I imagine Peterson’s isn’t much different:

Yeah, a death sentence really doesn’t have the impact it did back when it actually was a death sentence. How far back is that, the Old West? Or have I been watching too many Clint Eastwood Westerns lately?

Why yes it is, thanks for asking.

The job of a modern day propaganda journalist is to advance a leftist agenda through imagery and dishonest omission and distortion of facts. Knowledge and usage of correct grammar is NOT a job requirement, as long as you have the right “feelings” and ideology.

I’d probably opt for the death penalty rather than spending my life in a 4x9 cell. I’d go insane.

Predictions that Peterson might be ostracized – or worse – because of Conner’s death have proven not to be true. “In Scott’s case,” says Robinson, “the perception [among the inmates] is that he killed his wife, and yeah she was pregnant, but he killed his wife. He hasn’t encountered the challenges others face who have killed kids individually.”

Robinson says Peterson still gets regular visits – several each month – from family and friends. He also receives numerous letters from female admirers who send him checks for his commissary account. “He has a significant amount of money in his account from people all over the world,” says Robinson. Peterson can spend $180 a month on items such as soda, candy, cookies, toothpaste and deodorant.

Smug look and all.

Another excerpt:

...

Blogging from Prison

Peterson’s only communication with the outside world is the blogging he has done for nearly a year on his family’s Web site: scottpetersonappeal.org, where he comments on his case and news events. Since Robinson says inmates are not allowed to have computers or access the Internet, his blogs are composed on a typewriter and mailed to his family to post. His most recent post, headlined “Media spotlight wrong again,” concerned the arrest of a man in the Chandra Levy murder.

...

WHY ARE WE PAYING FOR INTERNET ACCESS?

He should have been executed a long time ago.

This is disgusting.

The taxpayers aren’t paying for that site. His family runs it. It’s their money to waste as they please.

Ummmm, the quote you posted specifically said he has no internet, or even computer, access. He has a typewriter and his family then posts the items they receive through the mail.
