And you think I don't have connections? But you can send me on if you like!!!

Thought you'd be interested in this excerpt from a different thread since it concerns the aspect of joint tenancy/rights of survivorship that we've been discussing about the Peterson home:
"...After his arrest, Peterson gave his parents power of attorney. That does not mean they can sell the house, however.
The title is in both names: Scott's and Laci's.
Generally speaking, in a joint tenancy, when one of the joint tenants dies, the property is divided up to the surviving tenants, said Dewey Weiford, Stanislaus Division president of Stewart Title of California. "However, the surviving joint tenant cannot be the cause of the deceased's death," he said.
Weiford noted that if a death certificate lists the cause of death as unknown or involving violence, the title and sales process is halted and the situation investigated.
Under the state Probate Code, if a joint tenant feloniously and intentionally kills another joint tenant, "the killer has no rights by survivorship." (end excerpt)

Thanks, I started that thread. LOL I should have pinged you.
To: MightyMouseToSaveThe Day
Thanks, MM! That sounds about right to me.

Read up on the case, including the account of that other pregnant woman, and get back to us. It is obvious you haven't been following it as many of the posters here have.
To: IC Ken
Why don't you look up that case and brief us all on it? Or you could ask RGSpincich, who posted some information on it above--information which you seem to have neglected to read.

Devil got 666! YIKES!

There's another call, too, that I'm confused about.
About a week ago we began hearing of how Scott called some friends on Dec. 24, to speak to them and finalize plans for New Year's Eve.
I assumed that this call was made before he "returned home and found that Laci was missing."
Heard on TV over the weekend, some reporter was claiming that this call about finalizing New Year's Eve plans was made AFTER Scott had gotten home, discovered Laci missing, and the alarm had been raised. True??!? He's calling friends about New Year's Eve plans--with his wife having just gone missing??!?
To: IC Ken
Do you really think the DA or the police are going to tell us the evidence before the trial? Surely you must see how odd and suspect his behavior has been since Laci disappeared.
I am confident the DA has the evidence and it will be revealed in a court of law which is the proper place.
To: juzcuz
You're right. Her letting him pick up her child, having known him about a month, that's kind of strange. Equally strange, I think, is that he was around to do it. I mean, I assume his interest was in Amber; the child was just incidental. Most men I know wouldn't be that familiar, that they would be taking care of little domestic details such as picking up the baby--at least, not so early in the relationship.
Also, look at how many pictures of Scott and Amber there are. And the pictures we see are not exactly ambiguous: there is a definite "trophy" quality to them. That is, it seems as though one or both of these people were declaring to the world, "This is my new steady."
Maybe, just maybe, we will find out that Scott and Amber knew one another before November 20.

Heard on TV over the weekend, some reporter was claiming that this call about finalizing New Year's Eve plans was made AFTER Scott had gotten home, discovered Laci missing,... Welcome back.
No, the guy was just on one of the morning shows with his wife. I understood him to mean late afternoon when SP called about the New Years Eve plans. He did call them again, much later, after Laci was discovered missing. They said he left a "frantic" message on their machine saying that Laci was missing and wanted to know if they had seen her.
To: Devil_Anse
He did call them again, much later, after Laci was discovered missing. But still on the 24th. Two calls on the 24th.
To: Jackie-O; MaggieMay
Hi you guys! I'm back. Thanks for noticing that I was gone! Death penalty for Laci's killer? Can't happen soon enough for me!
Hey, I've been catching up on this thread. Someone said they heard on TV that police are saying (privately, I take it) that she was strangled? Okay, but then why do we keep hearing that there was some blood found?
To: An American In Dairyland
Not really anything that verifies it was a sexual relationship.
However, I watched Amber's shock press conference. She spit it all out in a hurry, and then got out of there. Part of what she said was to this effect: yes, I was involved with Scott Peterson, whom I didn't know was married... did I say I didn't know he was married? Because I didn't know he was married, you know... and yes, it was a ROMANTIC relationship.
So I got the impression she was trying to say, yes, we slept together, and that's all I'm gonna say about that.
To: Yeti
Now stop that, Yeti. Poooor Amber!! You keep that up, and iconoclast and those other manly men who do things in manly ways are going to make you become an honorary member of the CABAL OF WOMEN on these threads! (That would probably just be the fox guarding the henhouse... but I digress... )
To: Yeti
I'm afraid it looks like a lamb, Yeti. The black sheep. Oooh--a goat, maybe.
A goat with a head that can rotate 360 degrees. And it says "redrum" instead of "baaa".

I missed it too, Velveeta. Look at all these half-empty cups! And stepped-on cheez-its on the floor.
The neighbors don't look too pleased, either!

Sherina Vincent--also known as Saki, according to Amber.
She took the pictures, and there was a pic of Sherina herself on the wall, so this was probably either Sherina's home, or, um, Sherina's mom's home.
Maybe at last we've found out who introduced this happy couple?
And what is with this couple, having so many pictures taken? If they had only just met? Since when does the picture-taking stage arrive so quickly?
To: Thommas
There were pictures, and they were racy. They were in the NE and also on a website somewhere. But they really had nothing to do with this case.
