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!!

I agree with you--Scott was the one who BENEFITTED from the murder (in his sick mind). That goes a long way.

I agree!

Scott Peterson: I am so sorry I hurt you in this way. ... It's the worst thing. I'm sorry, Amber. I'll just tell you.

Amber Frey: OK.

Peterson: Uh, you haven't been watching the news, obviously?

Frey: No.

Peterson: I have lied to you. ... I haven't been traveling.

(He tells her he's been in Modesto looking for his wife, Laci).

Frey: You told me that you had lost your wife. What was that about?

Peterson: She ... she's alive.

Frey: Where? She's alive? Where?

Peterson: In Modesto. ... The media has been telling everyone that I had something to do with her disappearance. So the past two weeks I've been hunted by the media. ...

You deserve so much better.

Frey: I deserve to understand an explanation of why you told me you lost your wife and this was the first holidays you'd spend without her. That was Dec. 9 you told me this and now all of a sudden your wife's missing. Are you kidding me?

(Peterson stammers and says he can't explain it now. He repeatedly says he needs to protect "all of us.")

Frey: So where is she?

Peterson: That's what we are trying to find out. ... I'm so sorry. You should be so angry at me and, God, I hope you are.

Frey: You sat here (Dec. 9) in front of me and cried and broke down. I sat here and held your hand, Scott, and comforted you and you were lying to me.

Peterson: Yeah.

Peterson: If you think I had something to do with her disappearance ... er, it, that is so wrong.

Frey: And you still have the audacity to call me "sweetie" right now?

Peterson: I know you can't trust me.

Frey: Didn't you say: "Amber, I will do anything for you. To trust me, uh baby, we have ... I feel we have a future together." What was that about?

Peterson: I never cheated on you.

Frey: Ha, ha, ha.

Peterson: I never did.

Frey: You're married. How do you figure you never cheated on me? Explain that one to me?

(Peterson says he can't explain it to her at this time, a refrain throughout the conversation).

Frey: How did you lose her then before she was lost? Explain that.

Peterson: There's different kinds of loss.

Frey: Then explain your loss.
