The cops couldn’t find Laci in that body of water they searched hundreds of times from December-March. The police department finally gave up on thinking Scott placed her in water when fishing and at some point, thought maybe he buried her in his backyard or in his warehouse with fertilizer. The cops kept saying they had “no leads” on where Laci’s body was while their phone line was ringing off the hook with tips (some true, many untrue) of Laci sightings in late December-early January. They did have leads. They just didn’t want to follow any leads that implied Laci was still alive |
The partner is the most dangerous person, period. Not just in DV cases. |
And they still haven’t found the rest of her knowing that it should be in the Bay. It’s not some easily searchable neighborhood retention pond. They had “leads” you seem to think they never withhold information from the public in these cases. They also didn’t tell Laci’s parents they were aware of Amber as soon as they knew because they were using her to try to get information from Scott. Meanwhile the family was still supporting Scott. But it was an active investigation. |
Cars are a leading cause of death. So is alcohol. Are we going to all stop driving cars or stop drinking alcohol? What does statistics have to do with an actual crime? Start with the crime and the crime scene and the clues not assumptions and general statistics. The cops handled the investigation backwards, starting with the suspect first, and clues second. Instead of evidence collecting first and suspect last. Laci and Connors bodies were not found until mid April. They went missing on Christmas Eve and that marina and SF Bay was searched so extensively including with radar and scuba divers. Nothing was found until the search ended. A passerby is who alerted cops to Laci and Connors remains. They didn’t find it themselves. How was Scott able to hide human remains in such a shallow body of water on his first attempt? They searched the water day and night for Lacis remains and nobody found anything until the SF Bay search is suspended in March |
You might want to post this on Modesto Urban Moms. I don't think anyone on this site is in the jury pool that you are trying to convince. |
Laci’s body was found in the bay right where it was suspected to be. Because it wasn’t found earlier than April doesn’t mean it wasn’t there all along. The body was consistent with a body that was submerged in water for many months. The bay has swift currents, it’s dark, muddy, etc. This isn’t that hard to figure out. |
What jury pool? This case is done and dusted except for one or two conspiracy theorists keeping it going. |
Why would there be sightings of Laci if she was kidnapped and they had the intention of killing her. She wouldn't just be walking around in public with her kidnappers. Also, how do petty theft druggies go from burglary to kidnapping to the extent they keep her alive for months, allow her to give birth and then kill her and the baby. This is such a stupid theory. |
The jury pool if Scott gets a new trial, which is the apparent goal of the poster who believes Scott did not do it. |
They ignored all leads that Laci was kidnapped and thought all the Laci spottings callers called in with were all bunk. After Amber showed up, they were convinced it was a homicide case even without a body. They should’ve spent more time vetting the calls from locals because there weren’t that many 5’1, heavily pregnant women around. Modesto has a small town feel with close knit neighborhoods and the surrrounding area was rural. On May 1, 2002, 24 year old Evelyn Fernandez, expecting a baby boy, disappeared at eight months pregnant and her torso and legs were also found in the SF Bay in July 2002. Her murder is still unsolved. |
Yes, but that’s not me. You replied to me above saying I was trying to convince a nonexistent jury pool, when I’m sure Scott did it. |
They weren’t wrong, there was a homicide and they waited until the body turned up to arrest Scott. That’s when Scott tried to hightail it to Mexico with weapons, cash, dyed hair, and speeding. Guilty as sin. |
During Scott Peterson’s trial, the judge sealed Laci’s autopsy files. |
Zzzz.... |
It’s no wonder our Justice system is so screwed up. It’s all in the hands of cops and juries of our peers who don’t care about anything besides their own biases about who killed someone. There is zero impartiality in the legal system. It’s a 21st century Salem witch trial |
