12-24 Laci missing.12-26 LE get search warrent for Laci and Scott's house.

Now, I will catch a lot of crap for this, but as soon as that happened -- as soon as he denied them access to his house IMMEDIATELY -- I knew he did it.

I don't care what anybody says, if you LOVE your family member and are truly worried about their whereabouts, you let the police in IMMEDIATELY.

BTW, thanks for that excellent timeline; sometimes we forget what we know......LOL.

I agree. It seems to me that anyone who has been gripped by the fear of having someone they know, let alone love, in possible danger knows you don't resist efforts to assist.

Another thing, though I am not sure of the exact chronology, Laci's mother has talked about the call she got that afternoon when she heard from Scott, "Laci's missing." I have never been quite clear on how long Scott was home before he made this call but it seems like it was less than two hours. Isn't that a short time to conclude that she was missing and not out on a walk, with friends, doing some last minute Christmas chore or whatever?

True. Dateline ran a case last night that was very interesting, about a rabbi who came home to find his wife brutally battered to death, blood everywhere. He called 911. Their son happened to be an EMT and heard the broadcast of his parents address that night, responded to find his father calmly telling him everything would be alright. Son asked what about Mom, dad didn't say.

Bottom line, dad had hired someone to kill her because he was in love with another woman, and son noticed that dad had no blood on him at all, meaning he had gone no where near Mom to check and even see if she was still alive when he got home. There was a lot of other behaviour and such, but talk about circumstantial evience, this case was full of it, including the actual "hit" man finally confessing some 5 years later, but the problem was this guy was a habitual liar. First trial, son really wanted to learn the truth, he had doubts, couldn't really believe his dad could do such a thing--dad had nothing in his past, outstanding reputation, rabbi, etc. So, when the son testified, he gave direct, minimum aswers, especially because he did not want to be the one to sway the jury, he wanted to have absolute proof for everyone, if his father really was involved.

Dad testified, denied everything, of course, said the affair was true, did write letters to the woman, but she was not the love of his life, that although the woman tesified that she should trust him, that God closes one door and opens another, someday they would be together (this was weeks before the murder) he denied he ever said that. He said absolutely there would never be divorce, his was an affair, not love. Then the DA played a tape recording with him telling the lover how much he loved her, that he had never loved like this before...DA said that was as close as he had ever gotten someone with perjury before.

Son watched father testify and heard him talk about how he never touched his wife when he came home, he called 911, said that was all he could do for her. Son listened to rest, and heard him lie after lie, things son knew were lies.

Jury was out for 8 days, came back hung. New trial, son testifies, but now knows father is guilty. Testifies with direct emotion, looks father in the eye while testifing, father stares him down, son calls him on it while on the stand. Father found guilty, 8 years after murder.

Oh, one more thing, father hired hit man after murder to be "investigtor" in order to hide the payments he was making to him--and to top it off, he later performed the marriage ceremony for the hitman and his new bride in the same living room that the murder took place.

These guys are a piece of work.
