I sure would like to know what that was all about.

I believe that statement was actually in regards to the warrants served on Modesto's mayor in a separate case involving some improprieties with public funds, etc. The judge's decision on both cases came down at the same time and the reporter failed to make the separation. Imagine that, a reporter not presenting ALL the facts. There were reports of missing evidence and harassment of witnesses in the mayor's case.

Remember the reason given for not releasing the warrant information was because it may prevent others from coming forward, AND IT COULD JEAPORDIZE THE LIFE OF SOMEONE

I sure would like to know what that was all about.

Me too, and I can't help thinking it's got something to do with Amy. I've felt that way from day one when she went into the Peterson house to gather evidence.

I don't know what it's all about but mostly about bluff, I think. On or about march 15th MPD went to the DA with all they had. They put it on the table and told the DA that they wanted to arrest Scott and go for a non body murder trial. The DA said flat no, not enough to indict. There was no proof of homocide and no acceptable connection between Scott and the crime if any
You see, all this circumstantial evidence not only has to stand alone, it has to group together to form a logical criminal path TO THE CERTAIN EXCLUSION OF POSSIBILITY OF ALL OTHER PATHS logical or criminal, if a conviction is to be obtained and upheld...IMHO...
Also this case has no DIRECT connective evidence except the connection of laci and connor to death and the connectin of Scott to the Marina. Nothing. There is NO direct connective criminal forensics,(blood etc.)in sufficient quantity; that was evidently b/s as it turns out. Additionaly, NO human witnesses have appeared that can make the required connection.
IMHO... if the bodies had been found anywhere else Scott would probably still be free, in fact I know he would. Scott delivered the only acceptable piece of connective circumstantial evidence to us;the receipt from Berkley.
This is good, as far as it goes,and I hope it is adequate for two life terms(Special circumstances) W/o parole. If the DA tries to pile more non-direct circumstantial evidence on top, in an attempt at Capital Punishment, there is a possible risk that it will all come falling in like a house of cards, as happens on occasion. Then it would all be over.

It appears LE is aware of this B/C as of this time the DA is not asking for the Death Penalty

The above is FWIW:FYI....;-0)
