No dna evidence wants to be opened up the judge.
Lacis autopsy sealed.. No real time of death established by the state. They waver between the evening of December 23rd and morning of December 24th and claim proving the time of death doesn’t matter because Scott did it.. This was the best case the state can prove: a flexible time of death, a sealed autopsy record of Laci, sealed fishing boat re-enactments, and hair on pliers as their only forensic evidence. He was sentenced to death with a case like this where the state didn’t even provide a real timeline of death. They did not prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. |
Poor Scott Peterson. He did the crime, now he can do the time. |
A couple million dollars was spent on the SF Bay search with scuba divers and radars and they couldn’t find Laci. They all knew from the Evelyn Fernandez case that the bay was the likely place the body would be but they couldn’t find it despite desperately searching for it to finally arrest Scott. The search was getting too expensive so they had to finally stop searching the SF Bay. They searched it over 30 times and couldn’t find anything. |
I hope he’s exonerated and sues California |
He won’t be, but dare to dream! Do you write him love letters in jail? Do you hope he will get in touch if he ever gets out? |
He is guilty, Janey. |
Sorry! |
Scott was offered tons of money for confession interviews and refused |
Not Janey and not a Scott fan. He’s a cheater and a liar, but that doesn’t necessarily equal murder |
+1. No one has any explanation for this, or selling Laci's car, or using the nursery for storage. Or making jokes during the initial search for them - his supposedly beloved wife and baby. |
The partner is the most dangerous person, period. Not just in DV cases. Cars are a leading cause of death. So is alcohol. Are we going to all stop driving cars or stop drinking alcohol? You are comparing apples to oranges and your stupidity is starting to really piss me off. Google is your friend. "The CDC analyzed the murders of women in 18 states from 2003 to 2014, finding a total of 10,018 deaths. Of those, 55 percent were intimate partner violence-related, meaning they occurred at the hands of a former or current partner or the partner’s family or friends. In 93 percent of those cases, the culprit was a current or former romantic partner. The report also bucks the strangers-in-dark-alleys narrative common to televised crime dramas: Strangers perpetrated just 16 percent of all female homicides, fewer than acquaintances and just slightly more than parents. About a third of the time, the couple had argued right before the homicide took place, and about 12 percent of the deaths were associated with jealousy. The majority of the victims were under the age of 40, and 15 percent were pregnant." |

The majority (over 60%) of court exonerations are homicide cases. Does this mean Scott is innocent? This is how foolish using statistics is. Forensic DNA evidence tells us everything. Motive means nothing. Anybody can build a motive in court about killing. Opportunity is also dubious. Why would he use Christmas Eve, the worst possible day ever, to kill Laci? Family was expecting her and she was preparing for her family as guests the next day (mopping the kitchen floor, baking, grocery shopping). He already had plenty of opportunities to sleep with Amber and keep it that way. There is also the fact that Scott was working on the morning of December 24th for a few hours. Where did he leave Laci’s body? Their home had no garage so how did he lift the body to the trunk in broad daylight? A neighbor saw him Putting umbrellas in his truck that same morning so this wasn’t some deserted neighborhood. Everyone was home because it was Xmas Eve. Surely, Mackenzie, the golden retriever, would not have been allowed to roam the streets and draw attention to a crime scene at the house. The dog had a muddy collar and leash when the neighbor discovered it which means Laci probably was on a walk with the dog. Many basic facts were overlooked by cops |
At the time, Scott didn’t know he was supposed to be grieving. He was keeping hope alive that Laci was alive but had a medical emergency. Just because he didn’t sit in a corner and wail and cry next to police, it doesn’t mean he didn’t miss his wife and want her home. Before the cops were called, he searched the store and neighborhood and called all the local hospitals. I don’t get why the cops and others are so angry because Scott didn’t provide the proper grief porn. Some men are stoic and never cry |
No. His baby was missing too. Normal parents are beside themselves with grief. Nothing about Scotts reaction was normal. He wasn’t grieving because he knew where they were all along. |
Actually they did. That is legally what they did. The jurors who heard the whole admissible case convicted him of murder. They all believed that they proved guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. |
