I hope Tony didn't take it wrong... You'd better hope he didn't.
Thanks for the explanation.

We're over here, Queen. Hop on in...
I don't know how we can believe a word of what Scott says. He has no witnesses to any of his fabrications, except the person who saw him leave the house with the possible "evidence". No one saw him at the Marina, no one saw Laci walking the dog, no one saw him at a store, NO one saw either Laci or Scott where he says they both were going.
AND, from the time he left the house, till the time he came home, he had no actual communication with her. He messed up. He should have added he tried to call her to let her know he was leaving the office to go on his impulsive fishing trip. But he couldn't say this, because by doing so, he would have had to suspect something might be wrong, and try to track her down.
He just said he tried to call her AFTER the fishing trip.
But he was probably busy disposing of the body, when he says he was at the office, so naturally, he couldn't even "pretend" to have called her.
Better late than never, huh Scott? NOT!

I bet Scott wishes he could kill John and Ken too. LOL, when they were yelling through the fence at him, telling him that no one believed any of his lies, he was probably looking around for that old murder weapon... Whoops, that's right, had to get rid of it...
My money's on John Kobylt anyway; he's pretty feisty! Those bodyguards have to work double to get between him and the public figures that seem to all want to attack him!

I noticed the "was" as well. He really needs to watch his verb tenses. They are telling a lot about him.
To: spectre
Naturally, my theory works better if she died sometime during the evening of December 23rd. That would have provided him with sufficient time to deal with the fact that he had killed his wife; needed a plan to dispose of her body, and; develop an alibi.
If she was dead by say midnight of the 23rd it seems only logical that he would use the cover of darkness to assist him in disposing of the body. The difficulty of waiting until the morning and transporting her body to his "work space" and then to the Marina is that any friend or relative of Lac's might have called early on the 24th looking for her. As long as he could establish an alibi that he had already left he probably felt he was in the clear.
However, if she died somewhat later that night say 4 or 5am of the 24th, he had to work quickly to prepare her body and come up with his plan and alibi. Darkness would not have helped him since it would have been light before he could have gotten everything in place.
The initial report on the bloodhound was that they followed her scent to to the driveway and lost it which led them to believe that she had departed by car.
If she didn't die until early that morning then I think it is possible he was forced into a plan which entailed wrapping her body in a tarp (blue?), weighting it down with the umbrella standards because of their weight, and driving her corpose all the way to the Marina.
Experts here have already said how difficult it would have been to boost her body up over the side of such a small boat in the chop of the Bay without tipping over, but perhaps he was able to accomplish it. Maybe the tarp got away from him and resurfaced later on shore.
So I think it depends a lot on when she actually died. Is possible she was killed in her sleep and never knew what hit her?
I just thought that the evening of the 23rd was the most probable for an intercepted phone call, motel receipt, discovery of a gift for Amber etc., since they would both be up and about and people could contact them. But she may have died in her sleep in a plan he plotted hours later after a violent confrontation in which she stated her plans to divorce him.
To: Neenah
Only $400??...I'll take 3!
To: spectre
LOL. Guess he didn't have to make any "potty stops either.
Unless he just P'd over the side of the boat? He WAS invisible, ya know.Remember what I said about Hwy 5 and the closeness of the river to the road there. Pulling over to take a wi## would be exactly what anyone who MIGHT have seen him thought he was doing.
In reality he could have carried her body about 10-15 feet, dropped it over a low fence checked for oncoming cars and then hopped the fence and drug the body under some nearby bushes. This is not you average 3-4 lane Hwy. It is two lanes only.

("You are NOW posting a message on FR. Do you know where YOUR moral compass is?)
To: spectre
If in fact he called, did he leave her a message? I understand that he tried calling her before he went fishing to let her know he was going fishing. She did not answer. I understand that he tried calling her after he went fishing. Once again, she did not answer. She has a cell phone right? Scott said her cell was with her purse. If he tried calling early in the day and tried calling her later in the day and she did not answer both times, did he not get a little worried? I mean I have my cell phone with me at all times. I would have at least answered one if not both of the calls. After all she is a pregnant lady. Did it occur to him to call her mother just to have the mother check up on her? When are they going to put the cuffs on scott?
To: Velveeta
Scott says: "My silence previously was intended to keep the media involved in this case. It's a rationale that we developed after perhaps the third day she was missing. We know from experience of others ... that it's up to the family to keep the media. That's our biggest tool is the media."
HUH??? I don't get it....can anyone make heads or tails out of that statement?
All that statement says to me is that Scott knew that Laci would not be found immediately---how did he know that? Why would he know they would need the media entertained in order to stay on the case? He came up with this idea right from the start, he's that media savvy?
To: tubebender
30 degrees at Berkley Yeah, I caught that too. It just doesn't get that cold here, esp. during the day. Daytime was about 55, night was lower 40's. Her info is just worng on that point.
Don't know anything about bait.

To: Space Wrangler
Exactly!
Plus, Scott did not come out in front of the media the 1st day, or the 2nd day or 3rd day.....he already knew she wasn't coming back and it was more important for him at that point that Amber not see his face on TV.

Are they keeping the lawyers name secret because they don't want to bring attention to the fact that Scott even has one? If Scott keeps talking like this his lawyers gonna quit, or else the lawyer gets control of him and shuts him up. One of these has got to happen very soon.
To: Rusty Roberts
THis is another example of him saying something that is exactly the opposite of what it is. Staying away from the media means you DON'T want the story in the media.
To: alexandria
I can't believe Scott would be this cocky if he dumped Laci's body in some bushes. He'd only be this cocky if he dumped her in the bay.
