Peterson tackles rumors, reports

At first, Scott simply let everyone believe that he left the house, with the anticipation of going fishing.

We only recently learn, that Scott went to the office/warehouse and after a couple of hours, and on the spur of the moment, decided to "go fishing".

So why did he HAVE to explain himself about this? I mean, it isn't like saying because he was going to go fishing that day seemed to be in and of itself, an indicator he killed his wife?

Mark Fuhrman said there were 51 minutes unaccounted for. But NOW, there is at least another hour or two added to the mystery. All he really accomplished with this new revelation, was to give himself less time to actually fish. He cast more suspicion on to himself.

We don't KNOW how much the MPD has on this guy to cause him to start the damage control TV appearances. But we're fixin to find out, I'll bet.

You guys have GOT to get in touch with these folks on John Walsh's tv. If you can't, maybe you can get through to the show and provide contact info!!

They are wanting to create a support group for people who have ADULTS who are "missing under suspicious circumstances."

Here are their names (from his website)

Finally, other parents whose children are the victims of other unsolved mysteries in Modesto, CA – Donna Raley, Barbara West, & Denise Smart – talk about their missing children and what they’ve done to help other families in the same situation.

Web search on on Donna Raley

I found her website..

she founded the group with the Levy's. I think you guys should present your petition to them..maybe they can help you.

Or if Scott were poor and black and on Death Row for a proven murder.

I never saw The Modesto Bee assert that that cup in his hand was a drink. I think the most oft-seen picture, the one where he had the object in his hand (and a big smile on his face) might have been taken by The Modesto Bee.

On these threads, several people thought it was a drink in his hand. They were repeatedly corrected, and the way I remember it was, one by one they posted saying that they stood corrected, that they now realized it was a candle in a cup--not a drink.

[spectre]

Yes. Scott's statement shows he is desperate. "Live by the media, die by the media", Scott!

WC, has it occured to anyone that the wallet could have been for Amber?

I don't remember ever reading that the newspaper said he was holding a drink. That photo might be their photo, though. I remember some posters mistakenly thought it was a drink, but they saw the light later and realized and admitted that it was a candle.

I wondered if Laci asked for the billfold..and if she did, did she tell anyone besides SP?

[Freedom2specul8]

There is something wrong with him and the family and friends are finally admitting in public that they know we, we know it, the media knows it...he is failing at his duty..to FIGHT for his wife. That was the perfect description that Laci's friend said this morning. His emotions are stunted or something.

[Freedom2specul8]

that they know it, we know it, the media knows it...

Sometimes I think too fast and my fingers can't keep up.

That wallet was very pricey. I sure would have told my sister or best friend "I have asked my husband for a Luis Vuitton wallet, or Coach, or Hermes!"

It could be he bought it for Laci, and it could be he bought it for Amber? Would be interesting to see if there was "another" baby type of gift he might have purchased for Laci for Christmas?

Got some errands to run, see ya later. PS, I don't get the John Walsh show on my Satellite...sniff.

I never thought of that ( the wallet being for Amber). That could explain why he didn't get all distraught thinking of Laci and the wallet she would never receive.

[Devil_Anse]

Nice try. Does it hurt to make such leaps in reason to blame Clinton for everything that goes wrong?

Right! Clinton is not to blame for Scott's wrongs.

Tony Soprano is.

There have always been, and will always be, emotionless, remorseless, lying scumbags in this world.

Yah you right! And Clinton is the Mother Teresa of all emotionless, remorseless, lying scumbags!

[Freedom2specul8]

Oh hey, if they've questioned him or her, I wounder why he or she hasn't spoken to the media. It's VERY STRANGE.the silence from that person

[Freedom2specul8]

That's why hubby doesn't want to get satellite...because we can't get local tv stations.

WRT:billfold, me too! however, I woudl be embarrassed to tell anyone that I wanted it. It seems so "materialistic"..

I have to leave too..been sitting here off and on for an hr.. Talk to ya later

[Yeti]

Yah you right! And Clinton is the Mother Teresa of all emotionless, remorseless, lying scumbags!

LOL! That woman, what a piece of work ...

I remember the Jeffrey McDonald story, Yaelle. I saw the movie and read the book. Karl Malden was great, wasn't he?

Kim, he was finally convicted. He is in jail now, has a website and all, still proclaiming his innocence, and apparently still assuming that his own wonderful self is the most important thing in the world to everyone.

The creepiest thing I remember about the McGinnis book was when the author described going into the military housing where the crime had occurred--9 years after the fact. All had been left just as it was the day the MP's investigated the scene. Even the food items in the refrigerator were still in there--and the refrigerator had been chugging along all those years, never having been unplugged. Ice cream that was 9+ years old in the freezer!

[Jackie-O]

True, it is strange that no one has come out to speak to media. Maybe he/she were asked to keep a lid on it to protect the investigaion?

[Arthalion]

But that said, who knows anything about the park Laci was supposed to visit that day?

See this post by me, from a thread yesterday. She's not there.

[Devil_Anse]

I'm also thinking of his executive orders.

Remember this? "Stroke of the pen, law of the land--kinda cool!"

And there are even people who will watch THAT arrogant sack of manure (Paul Begala) on "Crossfire"!

[Devil_Anse]

the wallet could have been meant for Amber?

Spectre, some of us have come to the conclusion that the wallet WAS meant for Amber--but only after Laci no longer had any need for it.

To everyone: This is a joke, I have not read that he gave Laci's present, the wallet, to Amber!
