August 4, 2004 -- REDWOOD CITY, Calif. Scott Peterson ordered explicit, 'round-the-clock satellite porn three weeks after his pregnant wife disappeared but abruptly canceled the service as cops raided his house, a witness testified yesterday. Donald Toy, a Dish Network representative, testified on the 33rd day of Peterson's double-murder trial that Peterson began subscribing to the Playboy Channel two weeks after wife Laci vanished, and tried it for four days before deciding to move on to the harder stuff: the "TENXtsy" package.
"They're adult content. Very explicit," Toy said of the movies. "You can order one movie at a time or unlimited, at your leisure."

When your pregnant wife disappears and volunteer crews are searching 'round the clock, you might as well relax over silicon-injected sleazoid sword-swallowers.
I mean, he was hurting real bad.
Obviously Scott knew Laci wasn't coming home.
Or, as we call it, "Skinimax."
plus, he sold her car and bought himself a new truck, asked a realtor how much he could get for the house, didn't he try to sell some of her jewelry? and Laci's mother bought it? I know he gave Amber some of Laci's jewelry...
This guy is not only sociopathic, he is stupid.
BFD...Millions of guys order porn but don't kill their wives.
Right, but every single guy that orders porn while his wife is MISSING under suspected foul circumstances did kill his wife.
Millions of guys don't order new porn subscriptions within days of their wives disappearing. LOL
Have you looked on DU ?
This same thread appeared there. The nutcases there saw nothing odd about a husband doing this and saw no reason why a wife should object.
Interesting. The Hacking murderer did the same thing via Dishnet.
If I were Dish network, I'd get someone else besides a guy named Toy to talk about porn stuff.
"Defense attorney Mark Geragos had asked the judge to block the porn testimony, saying it would smear Peterson's character but not help prove the prosecution's case that Peterson murdered his wife on Christmas Eve because he was infatuated with lover Amber Frey."
Too funnt - "smear Peterson's character"? WHAT character? He sounds more and more like the ultimate scumbag married to a sweet woman.
At the least it shows his state of mind during what should be a very stressful time. Wonder how the jury is going to put all the facts together.
This may do more to eliminate the possibility of "reasonable doubt" than anything else the prosecution offers.
Toy revealed the following chronology:
* On March 13, 2001, Laci Peterson ordered satellite programming with HBO, but no adult programming;
* On Jan. 8, 2003, two weeks after Laci's disappearance and more than three months before the discovery of her body, Scott Peterson ordered the Playboy Channel.
* On Jan. 12, Scott scrapped the Playboy channel for TENXtsy.
* On Feb. 18, as Modesto police served a search warrant at the house, the service was discontinued.
In other developments yesterday, a retired Modesto police detective said he pulled records from one of Scott Peterson's computers showing that on Dec. 8, 2002, he was researching water-current patterns in San Francisco Bay.
Prosecutors say Peterson bought a fishing boat the next day and told Frey he had recently lost his wife and was about to spend his first Christmas without her.
The suspect hubby has said he went fishing the day Laci vanished.
The bodies of his wife and her eight-month fetus were discovered washed up on a shore of the bay in April 2003.
A handful of witnesses yesterday recalled Peterson's smiling, apparently happy-go-lucky demeanor at a candlelight vigil for his wife shortly after she disappeared.
Lissa McElroy, a family friend, also noted how poor Peterson's judgment was when she came over to help select photos of Laci to share with searchers and the media.
"Scott pulled out a photo of Laci in a bathing suit on the beach . . . then a photo of Laci and her friends holding up drinks," McElroy said.

Are there any non-nutcases at DU?
I'm not on the jury. When Peterson hired Mark Geragos, he eliminated "reasonable doubt" in my mind. Hiring Geragos is one step away from making a tearful confession of guilt on Oprah.
Hacker didn't order any porn....He is innocent !!!!
Dang! I hate making a joke then looking like an idiot afterwards

Very interesting, indeed.
