It's very difficult to hold onto "innocent until proven guilty," that's for sure.

FINALLY? I think it's painfully OBVIOUS that he murdered his pregnant wife.

where did he kill her, in the house? and then he transported her and decapitated her (sorry for being so graphic)? or did he transport her alive someplace?
To: Catspaw
If he ain't guilty...
He sure managed to LOOK guilty.

Have you heard any more details???
Please tell us they took him out in the back woods some where and beat the ever loving $hit out of him with phonebooks or something that does not leave marks. This person should not be able to just waltz to the needle when that time comes and just be put to sleep. Thats not fair.

Hadn't heard exactly the charges. However, they may wish to try him separately for two charges, in case on doesn't stick.

A reporter on KFI said the other day, how shall I put it, a lot of times people think they've covered all the angles when they weight someone down -- but the human body disintegrates and comes apart at weak points. I think that's what the prevailing theory would be here. At least it made sense to me.

HOWEVER, is anyone else here wondering why there aren't two counts of murder?They might not be able to prove the baby was born alive. I also don't know if California has a fetal homicide law. I hope one of the Cali freepers can answer that one.

In Custody
Scott Peterson's Family Says He Has Been Arrested for Probable Cause
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/SciTech/bodyfound030418.html April 18 Scott Peterson's family says they believe the Modesto, Calif., man has been arrested in the disappearance of his pregnant wife, Laci.
The development comes days after a woman's decomposed torso and the remains of a full-term male fetus washed ashore on a San Francisco Bay-area beach.
A spokesman for Peterson's family said this evening it was their understanding that he had been arrested in San Diego for probable cause in the disappearance of his wife.
Police in Modesto had earlier announced "a significant change in the Laci Peterson investigation" and planned to hold a news conference at 9 p.m. ET to discuss the investigation.
Authorities have been conducting tests to determine whether the corpses found Sunday and Monday on a San Francisco-area beach are the remains of Laci Peterson, 27, and her unborn child. Scott Peterson, 30, had not appeared in public or made any public statements since the bodies were found.
However, in today's edition of The Modesto Bee, Scott Peterson's lawyer said he still hopes to find his missing wife and child alive.
"As he has been for the last several months, he is hoping to find Laci and the baby alive," Kirk McAllister said. "He is hoping this doesn't mean that his search for Laci and the baby is over."
Lacis Father Suspects Scott
Scott Peterson told police he last saw Laci on the morning of Dec. 24 before he went fishing out of Berkeley Marina. Laci was due to give birth Feb. 10 to a son she and Scott had already named Connor.
Peterson has acknowledged he was having an affair, but maintains he did not hurt his wife. Laci's family initially supported him, but after learning of the affair, they lost trust in him.
Her father, Dennis Rocha, said earlier this week in an interview with WBZ-TV in Boston that he believes Scott killed his daughter and unborn grandson. Rocha said he wanted his son-in-law arrested.
"That's what I want, some justice done here," Rocha told WBZ-TV. "I can't see Scott being out there free. That would just eat me up."

I know, and you're right, he'll probably have five thousand marriage proposals...and how much do you want to bet that there are tens of thousands out there for his "candlelight vigil" during his execution?
If this punk gets out of this, ala O. J. and Condidit, then I will have forever lost all faith in our judicial system...

I felt like Laci was one of my own, and I just could not rest as long as I knew that Scott was on the loose, and no matter if it takes a long time to try him, I feel better now. The moment that I read that Scott had told Laci that he had a mistress, I felt so sure in my heart that he had killed her, due to her likely response. I knew he was lying when he said that Laci was okay with it, and it would not break up their marriage. Scott's philandering has cost Laci her life, and I doubt that she would have accepted it. Laci and baby deserved better.
