There is a CA code section that allows police, without a warrant, to seize weapons when responding to any kind of domestic situation where they think the continued presence of a weapon may pose a problem….Anyway, thanks to the many excellent posts, it is all starting to make sense, at least to me.

Jacquelyn told Amber about the mailbox the same day he rented it, on that 23rd, but she was even more suspicious and told him so in no uncertain terms, so he told her he would call her later that day. He murdered Laci as soon as they got back from the hair salon, and he immediately called Amber and gave her his home number and told her she was welcome to call at any time. He even told her he was listed in the Modesto phone book, and the only reason for the private mailbox was because he was gone so often and mail and packages would get lost sitting on his porch, he not having any family and what not.

He challenged her to call anytime, and no one else answering would prove he was telling her the truth. As to the alibi, he had always planned on the golfing alibi, but couldn’t resist the compulsion to return in daylight to make sure the bodies had not surfaced. He may not have even launched the boat that second trip. When he first talked to the neighbors, he was still in the golfing alibi mode. As many lies as he tells, it is hard keeping them all straight.

What he had planned was dropping off the dog some distance from the house, but he never planned for the dog to return home so quickly, as he had doped the dog as well. But dogs apparently have a higher tolerance to GHB and unlike with Laci, he had never experimented with dosing the dog. JMNSHO. (Just my not so…)

Pretty good, pretty good! Ties up a lot of details, I must say.

Thank you for telling us about the CA law that allows the cops to simply seize the gun. Considering that they had a distraught husband, woefully missing his dear wife, on their hands, I think it was prudent of Brocchini to grab that gun, and that's probably one of the situations the statute was meant to address. (We won't go into whether CA's gun laws are reasonable, ha ha.)

Gee, imagine that! Brocchini, part of that criminal enterprise known as MPD, actually did something LEGAL??!

Thanks, at bay! I really don't doubt that Brocchini had a right, without a warrant, to seize that gun. What I doubt, since they're arguing about the "seizing" of mops and bucket without a receipt and only verbal permission by Scott, is that Brocchini would have a right to take that gun without telling Scott that he was doing so. I hope that makes sense.

Interesting scenario that you have put forth, but has it been established that Scott and Laci got home at 8:30 p.m. on the 23rd? You know, Laci called Sharon at 8:30 that evening.

Now, that MG has subpoenaed Amber's telephone records, we might, perhaps, get to see if, when and what time on the 23rd that Amber called SP's home phone number.
