Mark Geragos got Detective Allen Brocchini to admit he deliberately deleted from his report a witness account that could be favorable to Scott Peterson

This makes me INSANE!

Got him to admit? Brocchini handed over his notes AND his audiotape.......how is that "getting him" to admit?

And nowhere did Brocchini say he DELIBERATELY deleted them; he just said he didn't put them in there.

It was Geragos and the press who said he did it on purpose.

IT MAKES ME CRAZY TOO!! The MEDIA - that is THEIR wording. It gives their headline a little punch when in fact it was NOTHING!! Honestly, I hope the viewership to CTV drops right off. After many many complaining emails of course.

Just heard a blurb on CTV...Kim McGregor, the wedding dress thief, has been presented as a viable suspect in Laci's murder. I have no details yet...She may be bipolar. Broncchini reviewing interview tape....Just another good muddying of the water IMHO...Geragos may go too far unless he can tie this together.... She wasn't truthful about her alibi.Beth reports

Beth say one writes in the date of his fishing license...so why was fishing trip called a last minute decision when he wrote in 23rd in addition to 24th...

True, but Beth fails to note they must write it in at time of purchase. One does not usually call a decision "last minute" if one has purchased a license to do so is my take.

"Apparently we've all been a bit misled about Frey's level of cooperation with police," Crier said in her on-air report, based on information from confidential sources, that police had a meeting Jan. 13, 2003, to discuss "the Amber problem."

Is Catherine Crier under the impression that she's a party to this case?

She's been making a lot of statements on her show lately AS FACT; for instance, she said that Scott went into the bathroom on Christmas Eve at the Rocha house, turned on the shower, and called Amber.

I don't even think they were AT the Rochas on Christmas Eve .....and I haven't heard of any phone calls between Scott and Amber on the 24th.

Unless she's getting this from Gloria, I have no clue where that stuff is coming from.

It appears to me that Geragos is just throwing anything and everything out there.

And that tells me he's got nothing to defend Scott with; now I know he doesn't have to prove anything, but it sure would help if anybody could account for Scott's whereabouts from 7:00 P.M. on the 23rd until 5:15 P.M. on the 24th.

MEG I agree. Geragos has had so many "theories" now that it is laughable. Any IDIOT can see what he's doing and IF they can see that, they most certainly should know by now that it's because he has NO DEFENSE. A DOZEN defenses just doesn't cut it.

Yup I read it and I heard Beth Karas say that it was Sharon Rocha that said maybe Kim should be given a key so that she could walk McKenzie. From what Beth said Kimberly McGregor had a crush on Scott. I didn't hear anything in there that could possibly make Kim a suspect in committing the murder? HOW could she committ a murder like that and haul a bundle that size of a dead pregnant woman. It's just so damn stupid. I could tear my hair. I hope to God there are no jurors stupid enough to believe such nonsensical drivel. Sometimes I think we don't give Jurors enough credit. None of Geragos's theories go anywhere. They are just theories with NO supporting evidence as opposed to Snott boy!!

I have finally learned to take everything "sources " are reported to have "revealed" with a block of salt....There may be truth and rumor, fiction and fact all mixed together....The media prosecution bashing got almost hysterical...

I agree it was a huge mistake for Broncchini to not put that part of the witness information in his report because of the HUGE deal made out of it...NEVER let them see an opening.

They can come back on Geragos over that one tho Meg. That interview is STILL contained in another Detectives report and Geragos knows it. He also KNEW about this witness a year ago. ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING was witheld from him and I think the Prosecution on redirect is going to be able to score some REAL points on Geragos's less than honest behaviour. I have heard several TH's say that this may bite MG in the A$$!!

It won't come back to discredit Geragos satisfactorily with me unless he is discredited in the eyes of the jurors and that I won't know for a long time...

It may discredit the MEDIA and THs, a pleasure to watch...Headlines will not change that have been written, words said by Michael Cordoza and Jim Hammer have still been said and they aren't going to turn around and bash themselves. Hope someone else will. I await the redirect.

Good point. I often wonder "how" they pick the talking heads they do. Cardoza raises my hackles before he even opens his mouth. I would like to reach inside my TV screen and give him a knuck sandwich. Can't STAND the man. Jim Hammer totally disappoints me. He's a prosecutor and he got in trouble for breaking the rules that he knows very well. So now he's going to undermine another Prosecutor???? don't get it!!

If it means anything, that license was purchased on Dec. 20th at Big 5 in Modesto.

Well if it's any consolation, Gloria Allred says that anything Amber testifies to will be corroborated by unequivocal evidence. I suppose such as tapes and Peterson's OWN voice.

I think Beth was trying to suggest that he could buy the license and fill in the dates later, so the 23rd date assumes a more suspicious thing...perhaps intimating he might get out on the bay the late evening of the 23rd?

As I understand it he had to write those dates in on the 20th in front of the clerk at Big 5. True, the spaces are empty for the dates, but the purchaser must write them at the time of purchase.

He premeditated fishing either the 23rd or the 24th..or..He premeditated the ability to go fishing so he could make a last minute decision?..

I am nitpicking the media and I like Beth..
