This type of representation answers the question of whether Lori is no longer with us...and who did it, IMO.
I find it no coincidence that the volunteer search was called off ad the same time the news of Mark hiring a lawyer came out....
I was just watching Fox news and I don't know if I misunderstood or what but they stated something to the affect that they had to have a body to proscute????? Did anyone else hear this?? Surely that is wrong. Many cases have never recovered a body. If this should be Utah law maybe that is why he hacked her in little pieces...His clothes had to be extremely bloodied are they in a dumpster too?????
I also had another thought as far as motive....Maybe he really hated the success of all of his family so much he thought by doing this he would ruin all of their lives and his father and brothers carreers would suffer badly from it
Hmmm. So Mark was planning to move to NC several weeks before Lori? Was he just going to disappear? He didn't have a home to move to... But then Lori found out and confronted him. And then he killed her.
I wasn't watching, but there are many cases where the body isn't found and they still charge someone with murder. They do need some evidence of a crime, it seems like they will have it in this case.
Remember Anne Marie Fahey? She was killed in Delaware by Thomas Capano. He dumped her in the ocean, her body was never found. He is in jail.
The similarities make me wonder if Mark observed Scott and his trial going badly for the prosecution and wondering if he could also maybe get away with it. I don't think that Mark is the inherently evil person like Scott, but sometimes you can dwell on something and what was a thought makes its way to becoming an action.
Maybe lady knows??
Marie's first husband wasn't gay. She had one or two kids with him. They went to elementary school with some of my kids. She lives about three blocks from me.
The first husband cheated on her.
He is a skunk
Yes! Did you read the book by Ann Rule, And Never Let Her Go? Good book.
"Why do women marry self-absorbed monsters like Peterson and Hacking?"
From everything I can gather, he wasn't always a monster. They knew each other since they were in high school. Mark is the fifth of seven children. His parents are -- according to everyone who knows them well -- really wonderful people. I've met them both in business settings, and they were friendly and kind.
Two of my daughters were friends with two of their daughters. In each case, my daughters said the Hacking girls were the nicest people they'd ever met.
Lori Soares wasn't spoiled. She was raised by a single mom, who worked for the Church. None of those jobs are extravangantly paid.
The Hackings, of course, had money, since Dad is a doctor. But I don't think they were spoiled.
Mark Hacking was, by all accounts, a sweet young man. Something happened to him. Maybe drugs. Who knows?
My daughter's father in law was his bishop before Mark was married. Bishops have to interview the people in their wards. They know where the warts are. He said Mark seemed like a fine young man. According to all Lori's friends, Mark was wonderful. That's why during the first couple of days, all Lori's friends -- who had known them both for years -- were saying there was no way Mark would ever hurt Lori.
This has hit everyone who knew them like a ton of bricks.
LL, yes, I wrote a retraction of that statement up above. I was thinking of Kathie Lee Gifford, whose first husband was gay.
I can't keep up with all these celebrity divorces.
BTW--Do you know Utah Girl?
Yes. I just read some more info about the phonecall Lori got at work.
Three days before she disappeared, Lori Hacking may have uncovered her husband's deceptions.
She received a phone call at her work, started crying and went home early, said a colleague at Wells Fargo Institutional Brokerage and Sales.
"I could hear her say things such as, 'But he's already been accepted. He's already applied. This can't be correct,' said Darren Openshaw, a Wells Fargo employee who overheard the phone call about 2:15 p.m. on July 16.
Openshaw said he believes the caller was from the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.

See Lady Lawyer's post.
That's what I love about Free Republic. There's always someone somewhere who knows the principals, or has inside information.
Once again, Marie's first husband was NOT gay!
Does Marie read here?
(Mea Culpa!!!)
Thanks for the insider's viewpoint.
I feel sorry for both families. Imagine how they feel today--having to go to the apartment and take everything out of it! To have to walk into that hellhole of a butcher shop!
By all accounts, both families are full of wonderful outstanding citizens.
Then there is the Bad Seed--Mark.
I don't think I know Utah Girl. But it's possible.
Sounds like you spend all your free time running!
Not that being a slug like me works any better...
You raise an excellent point.
Fox is reporting Lori Hacking was attacked and killed sometime between Sunday night and Monday morning in her apartment. They called it a rage killing.
Thats a long time for the rage to simmer...because she must have confronted him on Friday..do we know how they acted when seen on the weekend?? were they seen??
