Last night, local Seattle news reported that a pregnant woman had been shot by her husband who then turned the gun on himself, wounding himself in the face. Woman died. Baby died. Couple looked very nice, were educated, lived in a reasonably OK neighborhood. Then, the day after the shootings, the victim's pretty sister came on cool as a cucumber and said it was NOT the husband's fault, it was fault of docs at Seattle hospital who had refused to admit the shooter for alleged psychiatric symptoms the day before the incident.

Maybe, maybe not. But the lack of emotion in the sister, her dramatic, heads-up delivery straight into the camera looks exactly like the setup for a high ticket lawsuit.

I've been hoping that Lacie would be found alive. Also had a few movie scenarios in which she left of her own accord or was spirited away by a gang of satanists who wanted her baby....We shall see. Anything could get pulled out of that bay.

Modesto police searched the Berkeley Marina again Thursday using sonar in hopes of finding clues in the disappearance of Laci Peterson.

The search revealed an object that is possibly a human body, according to authorities.

Police officials said that weather and diver fatigue did not permit divers to examine the object Thursday. They say that, weather and conditions permitting, divers will attempt to examine the object and determine what exactly it is on Saturday.

Peterson, 27, was last seen at 9:30 a.m. on Dec. 24 by her husband, Scott Peterson. She is eight months pregnant.

Scott Peterson has told authorities that he went to the Berkeley marina and spent Dec. 24 fishing on San Francisco Bay. Police have previously searched the marina area but are now using side-scan sonar borrowed from the San Mateo County Sheriff's Department.

"They can take images underwater within a 50-150 foot area," Modesto Police Department spokesman Doug Ridenour said.

That is very true. If it is a body, from what I've read, it could be somebody else.

If help was really sought by or for the husband and was denied the day before the husband shot himself in the face, and killed his pregnant wife and unborn child, I'd say someone at the hospital screwed up big-time.

Not all lawsuits are without merit.

"or was spirited away by a gang of satanists who wanted her baby"

My feeling since the beginning was that she may have been abducted by somebody in the black market baby racket. Question is, if that is the case, would they let her go after the baby was delivered?
