SP danced around this one.

Both he and Laci have $250,000 life insurance policies, taken out two years ago. He called untrue a report that he took out such a policy on his wife only last summer.

Someone should email NE, and L84AD8 can you confirm any of this with what SP is now saying?

Scott Peterson's Lawyer May Have a Hobson's Choice

And, as you know, when you're not doing the right thing, it eats you up. You know you feel sick to your stomach and you can't function. And you have a hard time, you know, looking at someone."

Very telling, Scott.

Asked about the baby boy due within weeks, he responded: "That was, it's so hard."

WAS what, Scott???? tick, tick, tick...

Yay John and Ken from L.A.! They are not DJs or "shock jocks," but in your face talk radio hosts, who were disgusted with SP's little one-day search of L.A. with water bottles with Laci's photo on them and little flyers, as if the entire world didn't already see Laci's photos every night on TV.

So they went up to Modesto to do their show live in front of the Peterson house, and they had bottles of water with SCOTT's photo on them, and their one-day trip was "a search for the TRUTH."

John was the one yelling at Scott, "Scott! What did you do with Laci, Scott?" and "No one believes any of your stories, Scott!" He did the same thing to Westerfield before little Danielle's body was found. So he's a little confrontational - it shows he has a pair and it makes for good radio.

Where is the dog she was going to take for a walk, missing or not?

[Yaelle]

As much as I have been following this case, the first time I really heard about the umbrellas in the big blue tarp was yesterday. My mouth fell open even bigger than it did watching Scott lie his head off on TV.

Isn't it deadly incriminating that on the day Laci disappears, Scott takes two eight-foot umbrellas wrapped in a blue tarp and carries them to his car? His explanation was that it was raining??? Excuse me??? They are UMBRELLAS. Why the h*ll would you need to WRAP umbrellas in a TARP to keep them from getting wet???

And why take the umbrellas to the warehouse, anyway? On Christmas eve, at that?? Is this not the MOST suspicious behavior yet?

Supposedly parts of the umbrellas are missing, possibly the weighted holders that go at the foot of them, which could be weighted with water or sand, or possibly cement??

And a large blue tarp was found in the marina where Scott said he went fishing. LE took it in for testing. Hmmmm.

I hope they get him on this soon. Of all the evidence I have heard, being witnessed carrying something incredibly long and heavy and wrapped in a tarp out to his truck the day Laci went missing is at the top of the list of suspicious activities.

Scott Peterson is an emotionless, remorseless, lying scumbag; the result of eight years of unaccountability in our country's leadership. I sure hope there is more than appears going on behind the scenes. This one needs some closure. Today's News

SCOTT LIES AGAIN!!!

Klaas: 'I've Never Talked With Scott Peterson'

MODESTO, Calif. -- During a one-on-one interview with KTVU's Ted Rowlands on Wednesday, Scott Peterson said he had talked with missing person advocate Marc Klaas -- a claim Klaas strongly denied Thursday on Mornings on 2.

"There is no ambiguity in this. I have never in my life spoken to Scott Peterson," Klaas said. "Where he comes off thinking he can make a statement like that in the public forum and get away with it, I don't know...It's not the first time."

Klaas was reacting to Peterson's answer to a question from Rowlands about his actions. The KTVU reporter told Peterson that both Klaas and John Walsh had question his actions so far in the case.

Peterson responded: "I have had conversations with both those gentlemen. It is entirely too selfish of me to defend myself against these accusations...All the media time should be spent on finding Laci."

Klaas went further when asked about Peterson's account of his affair with Amber Frey.

"Listen, first there was no affair," Klaas said. "Then Amber came forward and said there was an affair. He had admitted there was an affair (when confronted by Laci's brother Brent Rocha)...Then he claimed he told Laci and she was okay with it...And now he says on the day Laci disappeared he called Amber and told her...But the first time anyone knew of it was when Amber went to the police."

"Obviously, this guy is stacking lie upon lie upon lie. He's indicting himself. It's like watching a train wreck."

Klaas reaction was like that of many to a series of interviews Peterson has held over the last 72 hours.

While there have been a few emotional moments in those interviews, most of the time Peterson has spoken in a low monotonal voice. His words have been carefully chosen. The message was clear -- Peterson wanted the world to know he had nothing to do with the disappearance of his wife, Laci Peterson, who vanished on Christmas Eve.

"I had nothing to do with Laci's disappearance," he told Rowlands.

For a complete report on the interview, click on the link at the left.

Wednesday's round of media interviews followed a Monday blockbuster in which Peterson talked for the first time at length about the case on 'Good Morning America.'

During that interview, Peterson said he told his wife and Modesto Police that he was having an affair. But he said it didn't rupture his marriage to Laci.

But Laci's friends told KTVU Tuesday night that they found that hard to believe.

"I can't say how she would have reacted," said Stacey Western. "I do know she wouldn't have been at peace with it. It would have been an issue. As close of friends as we have, she would have told one of us."

Peterson, 30, breaking a long silence and reversing weeks of denying an affair, told Good Morning America that the relationship with Fresno-area massage therapist Amber Frey "inappropriate."

But, he added that the affair "wasn't anything that would break us apart."

He said Laci Peterson, 27 and seven months pregnant at the time she disappered, was unhappy. "But it was not something we weren't dealing with."

Peterson said there was not a lot of anger, no physical altercations and that his wife made peace with the affair.

"No one knows our relationship but us," he told ABC's Diane Sawyer.

Laci Peterson's family issued a statement through the Carole Sund-Carrington Memorial Reward Foundation, saying, "We are not going to make any comments on his appearance. We would just like him to continue to speak with the police."

Peterson told Sawyer he didn't kill his wife and added there is no proof she is dead. The possibility runs through his mind, he said, but, "It's not one we're ready to accept."

The couple were expecting a baby boy they had named Conner, on Feb. 10.

Peterson also told Sawyer he still saw Frey, of Madera Ranchos, Calif., after he told his wife about her.

Frey made a dramatic tearful appearance Friday in Modesto on the one-month anniversary of Laci Peterson's disappearance, admitting a "romantic relationship" with Scott Peterson and apologizing "for the pain this has caused" Laci Peterson's family.

A shaken emotional Frey, a single mother with a 23-month-old child, said Peterson told her he was unmarried when they met Nov. 20. She said she called Modesto Police Dec. 30 when she discovered he was Laci Peterson's husband.

Peterson told Sawyer he didn't love Frey, but, "I'd have to say that I respect her" for making the public appearance.

He told he notified police of his relationship with Frey immediately last Christmas Eve, and that Frey was the only person with whom he had an extramarital relationship.

"It was inappropriate and I owe a tremendous apology to everyone," Peterson said. "It should have been brought forth by me, immediately..."

Modesto Police spokesman Doug Ridenour said Tuesday that police investigators have seen the interview, but declined to comment on any details of the interview, including Peterson's claim of telling police about the affair immediately.

>i?Speaking with Gloria Gomez of Sacramento TV station KOVR, Peterson explained why he said he told his wife about his affair with Amber Frey: "It was the right thing to do. And, as you know, when you're not doing the right thing, it eats you up. You know you feel sick to your stomach and you can't function. And you have a hard time, you know, looking at someone."

If he really cared and really told her, he would NOT have gone fishing Christmas Eve. His story stinks!

[TexKat]

"It was the right thing to do. And, as you know, when you're not doing the right thing, it eats you up. You know you feel sick to your stomach and you can't function. And you have a hard time, you know, looking at someone."

Well if that is the case SP should have had diarrhea and vomiting at the time he was speaking the above words to the reporter.

[kaki]

I just heard on FNC that someone (waitress or whatever) has reported seeing Laci in the past two weeks, and she was with an older man and told the waitress, whatever, that she had been abducted and to call police, but the woman "got busy". does anyone else (I am the eternal optimist) think that either Laci was abducted to take her baby for the black market or that she possibly is a really "witch" who after finding out about the affair, has taken flight and hiding to let Scott suffer? Some women can be vindictive as well as men can be murderous! I a hoping that she has that "umphh"!!

[Porterville]

I don't know??? Did he??? Didn't he???

[Porterville]

Maybe she was didling the gardner and the baby belonged to him. Then they either ran off to Tahiti or the gardner did it in the backyard with the garden hose.

"Clue" I win.
