And they said he was watching football while that all happened?

BTW, Lee Peterson said that he had gone to the marina himself and that HE had names of people who saw Scott there -- did you ever see those names?

Last I heard, the only eye witness who said they saw Scott was the groundskeeper at the marina. And he saw Scott PULLING HIS BOAT OUT of the water somewhere around noon. (Can't recall exact time.)

Short fishing trip, eh? And after such a long drive too! /sarcasm

ABRAMS: In the Laci Peterson investigation, new information that could bolster Scott Peterson’s claim that he had nothing to do with his wife’s disappearance.
A couple who live about ten blocks away from the Petersons say they told police they saw Laci walking her dog the morning she disappeared. They say police never called them back to follow up.
Vivian and Bill Mitchell say they saw Laci at about 10:15 in the morning, which is 45 minutes after the time Scott says he left on a fishing trip.
I spoke with the Mitchells earlier and asked Vivian Mitchell exactly what she saw that morning.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
VIVIAN MITCHELL, NEIGHBOR OF THE PETERSONS: I happened to see this golden dog and the lady was walking the dog. And I never met her personally, but I did have a very good view of her for, oh, probably 10, 15 seconds. And then I hollered at Bill, “There’s that pretty dog.”
ABRAMS: First of all, are you sure it was Laci Peterson?
V. MITCHELL: Well, I’m pretty close to positive after seeing all the pictures of her. And I had seen this lady walking dogs several times before. I’ve been recovering from a broken hip, and so I had a lot of time to look out the window.
ABRAMS: All right.
V. MITCHELL: Until I was able to walk again.
ABRAMS: Mr. Mitchell, let me ask you about the time, then. How are you so sure it was 10 or 10:15 in the morning and not earlier or later?
BILL MITCHELL, NEIGHBOR OF THE PETERSONS: I’m sure it was well after 9:30. The football games began at, I think, 9 a.m. California time. Or 12 p.m. eastern time. And I was checking which ones were on and where I’d find them.
And I was in front of the television in the living room.
ABRAMS: So based on the timing of the football-I apologize for interrupting you.
B. MITCHELL: Sure.
ABRAMS: Based on the timing of the football games, you’re confident -
” again, this is such an important detail, you are confident, you feel certain that this was well after 9:30? It could not have been 9 or 9:15?

B. MITCHELL: That’s correct.

The only 'witness' I've read about is the marina groundskeeper.
