ABC national news at the top of the hour on our local station reported that Scott P. had been arrested for "probable cause" several hours ago. San Diego police would be holding a news conference in a couple of hours (about 6 p.m. PDT)

He'll get a lawyer, say the glove doesn't fit, and that poor potty training and the current ABC prime time lineup drove him to do it. He'll get a light sentence and then sue ABC or get a movie deal. California is the last remaining French province in America. You can get away with murder out there...

I just heard this on the car radio and you guys are already up to 300+ posts! Need to start reading.

Hopefully he will be raped by his fellow prisoners several times before he's moved into solitary confinement.

That "man",err-r-r, animal is as cold as I have ever seen.

Just how could anybody do something like that? Mindboggling.

[nmh]

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

[isthisnickcool]

People! People! This is not fair!

Remember! Everyone is innocent until PROVEN guilty! Everyone*

*Except OJ, who was always guilty. And Scott Peterson.

Interesting that the Great Drudge doesn't have a hint of this yet, at 4:35 p.m., PDT long after it was reported. I even heard it on the radio 15 minutes ago. Guess he's asleep as usual. His site is greatly overrated; better and more current info here on FR.

Why isn't anyone trying to understand what intense pressure Scott was under? He had just recently declared bankruptcy, had to join an expensive country club and had to drive all the way to Fresno to get a little!

[Houmatt]

Dammit! I only heard about this less than a half-hour ago and posted it. Little did I know someone beat me to the punch again.

Oh, well.

I am sure FOX will be covering the news conference; will anyone be watching besides me?

[marshmallow]

Looks like they were just waiting for a body to put the last piece in the jigsaw.

I'd say they've got some forensic evidence on Scotty boy, but until they had a body, this was still technically a missing person case.

[Im Your Huckleberry]

Could be.

I'm waiting for the press conference. I hope they actually give us some information this time.

I'd like to know what evidence they have. Otherwise my fear is this a@@hole is going to get off...

[TC Rider]

This is what happens when they put a public relations hack up front.

[ladyinred]

Expected this for a long time. It was clear that the jerk had disposed of his wife and baby to be.

[mafree]

They must have some pretty solid evidence- you're toast Scott you scum!

--Jury List--


Gary Condit

OJ Simpson

Bill Clinton


The Verdict?

Innocent, of course.

[auboy]

Well, well, Scottie. Where's that brash and cocky smirk and dance now? I just heard someone on TV mention they have yet to determine Laci's cause of death. May I suggest Scott Peterson?

[PISANO]

I hate to say it but it will be 24/7 on this story for the next week or more. The Liberation of Iraq will have to take a back seat. It is times like this that move me to turn ALL cable news shows OFF.
