Okay, Scott walks.

I am just thinking, though... one thing that has bothered me all along is something that will not be presented by the state as an argument that Scott did it. But in spite of that, it is something that in MY mind makes ME think Scott did it: the question I have for you is (and yes, I know this has no place in a courtroom), if Scott didn't kill her, who did, and above all, WHY?

if Scott didn't kill her, who did, and above all, WHY?

If he didn't, then money or a jealous woman would/could be the motive. We heard from that character, Carroll (or his attorney, Muna), that there was a kidnap plan, and that they were planning to extort money from the Rochas. It has occured to me that maybe SP told the gang that say $250k would be no problem for the Rochas. Suppose for a minute that (IF SP didn't do it), after Laci disappeared, SP got the feeling that the Rochas were kind of po'd at him, and he'd better not ask them! Then, say, he was trying to come up with the money himself to get her back, like selling Laci's car, trying to sell the house, but he knew dang well he'd better not tell anyone of his sleazy plan. Suppose Dirty and Skeeter gave him two weeks or so to come up with money, and SP couldn't or wouldn't. He would have been afraid of Dirty and Skeeter and wouldn't want to toss their names out there, and he certainly didn't want to go to jail himself, so .....

As for the jealous lover, maybe we should look more carefully at his neighbor who seemed to be around at all times. Just a couple of ideas--if Scott didn't do it himself.

I think Scott had this PRE-planned at least sometime in December. Plus he "prophesied" to Amber and her friend, that he was a widower and that THIS would be his first holiday without his wife, "that girl named Laci"! GAG. THAT piece of evidence there is ULTRA DAMNING. There is NOTHING that could have made that come true but him. AND he was the only one to benefit from it coming true. If I were a Juror, no way, could I surmount that hurdle. THEN add to that, WHERE Laci turned up!!
