I'm thinking Laci found out about the affair Scott had and it threatened to ruin Scott's "perfect boy" image so he snapped or she whacked him and he went wild. Sounds like the perfect image problem that often rears its ugly head when everyone learns it ain't so perfect after all.

I think you're pretty close in your theory, LaES.

Oh, I hope they got the arrest on film!

I don't believe for a minute this death came during the heat of passion. This has pre-med written all over it. He never went fishing up there. He studied the currents of where she was dumped. She was cemented down and put under water. The baby was also found a mile away, which makes me wonder if the baby was born before she died, or whether he was cut out before he put her under water.
Even if they can't determine pre-med, they won't have any trouble establishing viability of the baby at 8 months. That will be two homicides which will make him eligible for the death penalty here in California.

Very good observation. There are certain people who cannot survive an "image defamation". They will lash out without thinking; they are in a rage. This could be an explaination for Scott Peterson.

I lean toward the scenario of an accidental killing and then a complex plan to hide the body. He sure is stupid. He should just have admitted it and gotten a light sentence instead of all this deception. I'm glad they arrested him; I think he was on his way to Mexico--dyed hair, beard. Ruined not only Laci and Conner's lives but his own and all his and her family members. It is so incredibly sad.
