He said Scott called him in the morning. He told his dad Laci was preparing for a walk.(No mention of Laci mopping floor). He was going to go fishing and they discussed their plans for Christmas eve. A little later Scotts dad said Scott called him during the day while he was fishing and they discussed their Christmas eve plans. I believe on another interview earlier in the investigation, perhaps it was on LKL, Lee Peterson did not mention any phone calls with his son on Dec 24th. It was after the disappearance he said that Scott told him Laci was mopping the floor that morning.

If Lee Peterson is fabricating these phone calls, especially the one supposedly made while fishing, he must be crazy. He must know that cellphone records will at least prove or disprove the story about the call made while fishing (unless there's a land line somewhere out in the Bay.) And what about the supposed call to dad in the morning, before going fishing? Isn't Lee Peterson in San Diego? So that would show up as long distance call on Scott's home phone--or if made from the cellphone, it would show up on cellphone records.

As STOCKHRSE said, they can determine through the towers used, more or less, where a person was when he made a cell call.

I just thought of this, though: What if Lee Peterson has an 800 number for his business? What if he was at the office the morning of Dec. 24th? (Lots of people worked that morning.) Wonder if the individual phone calls would be discernible on either end if Scott was calling an 800 number...
