Scott Peterson's Defense Could Rest Tuesday

Scott Peterson's defense team could rest its case Tuesday.

On Monday, his lawyer called on Peterson's mother to try to explain why he had nearly $15,000 in cash on him when he was arrested. She says she gave him back $10,000 that she accidentally withdrew from his account.

His lawyer also questioned police about whether someone else could have been responsible for the death of Scott's wife, Laci, and her baby.

Prosecutors say he killed her and dumped her body into the San Francisco Bay nearly two years ago.

The defense maintains ........

Remember how she kissed up to OJ? He called her show and it made big news. Then, she got an exclusive with him on the to year anniversary.

Yeah, the problem with that one is, in order to take him down on it, they'd have to take "poor old oxygen-deprived, sick, pathetic Jackie P." down, too. And there are enough fools out there, I imagine, who would complain that they are being "mean" to the poor sick old woman.

Scott didn't dye his hair. Remember, it was chlorine from a neighbor's pool...

Oh, I'll bet that's just Geragos' latest apologist (Horowitz--he's really scraping the bottom of the barrel with Horowitz) pretending they HAD a defense to present in the first place!

Part of it was my yapping, lol. Let's all join together in a mournful country song for Scotty. A jail song, that is.

If these prosecutors were as mean as one I knew in New Orleans, they'd present him with a tube of KY after the guilty verdict.

because as Mrs Peterson explained, she was trying to prevent police from taking his vehicles...

Thing is, police don't just take vehicles because they want to. They take them for various legal reasons by law. Scott wasn't breaking any vehicle laws the last time I heard. He was a lawful licensed motorist!

I heard a report on newsradio today. They have a new medical term for our condition. Electoral nervosa.
I have it too...major stress from talking/arguing politics with family, friends and co-workers.

maybe not.... wasn't brought into court for evidence? Or markie would have sissy fit!

Many things from Geragos witness could be refuted. Hopefully the DA has more smarts to bring it on!

As much as I hate to admit it, Snotty actually has a strong argument that his conviction should be overturned or retried because his lawyer failed to vigorously defend him. Geragoon's defense has been appalling, and has consistently made Peterson look guiltier with every blundering attempt to clear him

Maybe this is Geragos handing the inmate his grounds for an appeal on a silver platter. I really don't think MG had much to work with tho. Sociopathic-narccisistic, pathological liars are quite hard to defend in this age of media hype, GPS,taperecorded conversations, etc. Especially when the bodies of their wife and child wash up where they were fishing 90 miles away. /sarcasm
