[The Great Satan]

According to their chilling scenario - which they stress is just a working theory - eight-months-pregnant Laci was abducted and sacrificed in a satanic ritual by one of several cults in the Modesto area, NBC reported.

Followers of Geragos' last killer client, Gary Condit, perhaps?

Funny you bring up Gary Condit.

I was about to post comment that I found surprising similarities in the synchronicity of the Laci case to the accusations regarding Condit.

In both situations, it seems that a relatively obscure unsolved crime makes national headlines for prolonged periods, while volumes of other unsolved cases never even make the back page of a county newspaper.

It seems that in both cases something very ulterior might be at hand, which isn't obvious to the public simply introduced to the affairs by press accounts.

I'd come closer to accepting something Satanic might be going on,... as in conspiracy theory, aka Illuminati, some esoteric branch of Freemasonry or Rosicrucianism, or some other fringe cult associated or linked to soe ensemblage of persons in a national level power structure. Not something overt, but intricately occultic,.. hidden in the wide open.

If it's WYSIWYG, then why aren't more unsolved murder cases as readily publicized? (Not trying to make anybody disprove a negative, but IMHO, the mechanics of making press seem to make the Condit and Laci cases much deeper than meets the eye.)
