Amber Frey turns motivational speaker
ABC news ^ | August 11, 2005

Amber Frey Turns Motivational Speaker The ex-lover who helped put Scott Peterson on death row for the murder of his pregnant wife is applying her experiences from the affair to help women bounce back from rough times - all for $19.99.

Frey, a Fresno massage therapist who turned star witness at Peterson's trial, has tried her hand at writing a book and now adds motivational speaker to her resume.

Frey said she wants to offer her hard-won knowledge to help other women.

"I feel there's something I have to share and I feel almost like I need to," Frey said. "There are so many women who can relate. They're questioning how I got through this to where I am today."

Frey met Peterson, a fertilizer salesman, through a friend and they began a whirlwind affair in the fall of 2002 that eroded when Frey found out that Peterson's wife, Laci, had disappeared and was the subject of a massive search.

Peterson originally told her he was single, but then said he had "lost" his wife - before she disappeared from their Modesto home.

Police began recording Frey's police calls and her testimony helped convicted him of murdering his wife and the fetus she was carrying. He's now on death row at San Quentin State Prison.

On Wednesday, Frey cashed in on her experiences before a small group of women willing to pay to hear about her transition from gullible girlfriend to teary murder trial witness to self-help instructor.

"I think there are a lot of sociopaths out there, and she has a lot to share with women who run across unsavory characters," said Marti Gallagher, who attended the class held by The Learning Annex.

immunity prosecutors had granted, but the judge ruled against it.

Melville also refused to order the playing of a tape of Amen's interview with prosecutors.

""I feel there's something I have to share and I feel almost like I need to," Frey said.

Like you needed to share your bed with a married man?

Lesson 1. If you're planning to screw someone on the first date make sure that he isn't married with homicidal tendencies. Non-homicidal married men are OK.

I think most of her boyfriends were married. I know the last one was, the one after Peterson. He went back to his wife, then subsequently divorced.

There are so many women who can relate.

She's so right! There's so many women out there who have affairs with married men who murder their pregnant wives resulting in the women becoming tv, um, personalities.

Boggles the mind. I guess some people are so desperate that they think anyone who's been on TV must be superior.

Now here's my favorite motivational speaker

Hey, I was divorce, living in a van down by the river, eating a steady diet of government cheese, till Matt Foley motivated me to grab the world by the tail, wrap it up and stick it in my pocket.

Thanks, Matt!!

Maybe she can take lessons from that guy on the Maury show, Dee West. The big guy that comes out and yells at the little out-of-control girls.

Gloria Alred!

Better be careful, I've had several butt chewings from the Amber apologists for sarcastically saying I wanted my daughters to emulate her.

Amber helped put snott away, she's getting her life back together, at least she didn't have an abortion when she was pregnant with that married guys baby, blah blah blah

I'm guessing that sooner or later she'll do a penthouse spread. I've seen quite a few disgusting pics of her on the internet already.

She's right about there being a lot of women out there who can relate to her problem. Just read almost any of the popular novels written in the last thirty years. Young woman meets man about whom she knows NOTHING. Half hour later they're in the sack. And her stupidity is glorified by the writer. Great message the publishing industry is sending to our young women.

Yeah, an' I like my women just a little on the trashy side,
When they wear their clothes too tight and their hair is dyed.
Too much lipstick an' er too much rouge,
Gets me excited, leaves me feeling confused.
An' I like my women just a little on the trashy side.
