ACK - I spoke too soon. Here's geraldo!

[MizSterious]

Think maybe today he'll produce "the real killer" he promised us? (trying to keep a straight face here...)

[kcvl]

Make it a quick email because Geraldo is interviewing Mark Geragos tonight, suppose to be "exclusive". Watch out for Geraldo and Greta when it concerns Geragos. They are his enablers. Both of them helped get Susan McDougal released by interferring in the trial. They make me sick.

Thank you, Miz. Sad that this has to be repeated so often.

Crier on now. Very pro-defense. She really believes the cult theory and is trying to convince Nancy Grace. Brought up the plastic bag again.

The media Or drug dealing. Nothing in this case would surprise me.

[Howlin]

What IS her deal with the baby being in that plastic bag? Isn't she the only one saying that?

I just read this from CTV board. Anyone see the Ted Rowlands report this morning about this new angle?

7:30am PST KTVU Update

This is basically a reiteration of the 7am report:

1. The prosecution's main theory is that Scott drugged
Laci with GHB prior to strangling her in the early of
hours of Christmas eve IN THE PETERSON HOME.
2. Info about GHB was found on Scott's computer.
3. This is called a "soft kill" because it leaves behind
little evidence.
4. It is unclear if any GHB was found in the Peterson
home.

Prosecution: Laci Was Drugged And Strangled

MODESTO, Calif. -- Police believe Scott Peterson drugged his pregnant wife with the growth hormone and date rape drug -- GHB -- and then strangled her in the couple's Modesto home, numerous sources revealed to KTVU Channel 2 on Friday.

Sources on both sides of the case told KTVU's Ted Rowlands that the prosecution's theory of the crime had been pieced together using information salvaged from a computer taken from the Peterson home.

The murder, one source said, was being classified as a 'soft kill' -- meaning there was very little evidence of the crime at the couple's home. The leaks came just hours before a series of hearings were take place in Modesto.


Weeks of courtroom maneuvering and spin control hurled toward a climax in those hearings into Christmas Eve murder of Laci Peterson and her unborn son, Conner.

And like most major developments in the case, the day promised to be bigger than life. Not one, but two Stanislaus County Superior Court judges were scheduled to hash out a laundry list of legal items.

Among those will be whether a gag order will be issued by Judge Al Girolami to plug the leaks and out-of-the-courthouse rhetoric that has characterized the case for the last few weeks.

The judges will also decide if search and arrests warrants issued in the case and their supporting documentation would be released to the public and whether the district attorney's office should be removed from the case because of its handling of wire taps on Scott Peterson's phones.

The issue at the center of the dispute is whether or not prosecutors listened to any of the 69 phone calls tapped between Peterson and his Modesto attorney Kirk McAllister. Also intercepted were two calls between Peterson and a private investigator working for McAllister.

"They (the defense team) need to make the motion, it's the responsible thing for the defense to do at this point," Fox News legal expert Mark Garcia told KTVU. "The judge will not grant that request. It's clear that Kirk McAllister has been around the area for a long time. The defense investigators and prosecution both know him well…They know his voice."

If this guy's time is correct, the dog had been returned to the Peterson yard already.

Thank you! I knew something was *wrong* with that little tidbit.

[melodie]

Thanks Clouda!! I guess the report is true!

I heard somebody mention that drug last night; it would have been either on Fox or MSNBC.

Don't wait up.
