Burglary of Peterson home detailed

Woman laid on Scott's bed, stole Laci's clothes

By Jason Dearen, STAFF WRITER

REDWOOD CITY -- A woman "infatuated" with Scott Peterson burglarized his home a month after his pregnant wife went missing and, once inside, made herself a Jack-Daniels-and-Coke, unwrapped some Christmas gifts, and took off with a bundle of goods, a Modesto detective testified Monday in Peterson's double-murder trial.

Kim McGregor, a neighbor of Peterson's, had volunteered to walk their golden retriever while he dealt with organizing volunteers for search efforts. She met Peterson when Sharon Rocha, Laci Peterson's mother, recommended her for the dog-walking job after the two met at the volunteer center. But McGregor had already met Laci Peterson a number of times at neighborhood meetings, defense attorney Mark Geragos ............

In his third day under cross-examination by Peterson's lawyer, Modesto Police Detective Allen Brocchini recounted his contact with Kimberly McGregor, a neighbor who admitted breaking into the couple's home on Jan. 19, 2003, about a month after the Laci Peterson (news - web sites) disappeared.

Brocchini said McGregor stole eight ........

Transcript: Frey's Dad Says Peterson Is a 'Criminal'

Monday, June 28, 2004

This is a partial transcript of The Big Story With Rita Cosby, May 26, 2004, that has been edited for clarity.

RITA COSBY, HOST: After the dismissal [in the Scott Peterson (search) trial] of the now infamous Juror No. 5, an unusual offer comes to the judge from our next guest. Ron Frey is the father of Scott Peterson's former girlfriend, Amber Frey (search), and he joins me now on the phone from Fresno.

Ron, what is your reaction first of all to the Juror No. 5, who has been talking up a storm?

RON FREY, AMBER FREY'S FATHER.......

[bmwcyle]

It has become sport to be a defense lawyer. It is not about justice.

[runningbear]

not sure.... could be that gal who was a Laci look alike?

[runningbear]

oh yeah.... and a sad thing too, being that if the suspect is guilty, this attorney will risk the public at large safety for freeing him back into the streets and commit further offenses, if guilty......

[bmwcyle]

You have great inner sight runningbear.

[Jackie-O]

And let's not forget THIS defense attorney, MG, was a talking head on various shows who was adamant about Scott's guilt...that is before he was given a million dollar retainer....$$$$$$$

[Jackie-O]

I was just reading a story in the paper with that pic...I was going to come look for it...you are on the ball bear!

[Devil_Anse]

Hey, look! There's big-nose Geragos hugging Monica!

Gad, that man is an uggo.

[Jackie-O]

Kind of a perverted little smirk on his face too! ;o)

[Devil_Anse]

You know, I'm sure Brocchini wrote report after report after report about this case.

It occurs to me that maybe this report from which the part about the warehouse "witness" was "excised" may have been an outline of their evidence they were going to use to get one of the warrants they got. In which case, it would be SUPPOSED to only have the stuff that was favorable to the point they were trying to make to the judge they were seeking the warrant from. It would be SUPPOSED to only have stuff that was favorable to the police's theory of the crime at that time.

If that's the case, then this whole attack on the "excised" police report would be like Geragos attacking a legal memo written by Distaso, saying it wasn't "fair" b/c it didn't give equal time to the defense's legal arguments. That, of course, would be ridiculous, since such a memo is expected to give only its author's side of the issue.

[Devil_Anse]

Good. Ron Frey is right on this one!

Oh, and I am starting to doubt that Amber was hiding some of her conversations with Scott from the police, when she had promised to let them in on all her contacts with Scott. It's starting to sound like more Geragos b.s. I imagine Scott is really angry at Amber now, and so he's going to tell his lawyer lies about her.

[Devil_Anse]

Ain't that the truth! And since that million dollar retainer has taken Geragos' butt-ugly, babbling face off TV ever since it was paid to him, I would just like to say that it was money well spent!
