WOW....

Our sources say Peterson told the inmate he had an accomplice help him dispose of the body. The inmate then told authorities about his discussion with Peterson, which led them to the alleged accomplice. We’re told the accomplice informed Will County Sheriff’s officials and prosecutors that the body was buried just outside Peoria, Illinois.

Will County Sheriff’s deputies and prosecutors took the alleged accomplice to Peoria Friday, and the accomplice led them to private hunting grounds. The owner allowed authorities to enter his property and the accomplice then led them to the site where Stacy’s body was allegedly buried. The accomplice told authorities the body was stuffed in a metal drum that had been buried underground.

On Friday afternoon, authorities brought police dogs onto the property and we’re told the dogs immediately took them to the place where the witness said the body was buried. Authorities then put prongs in the soil and hit a mass below ground that could be the drum in question.

Hi saca;)

Have been absorbed in the Joran Van der Sloot debacle:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2526320/posts

Then a poster mentioned Stacy Peterson - so here we are;)

Murderers are not really a break from politicians, but at least there is a possibility the killers will eventually pay for their crimes.

I do remember the huge search for a BLUE OIL DRUM and the tale about a long distance truck driver being asked to transport something out of Bolingbrooke. Also that Drew Peterson had a small plane parked at an airport.

Then investigations and searches for Stacy just STOPPED!!!

Another boondoggle based on an anonymous tip. Result: Fail.

Caveat: If they find Stacy, I’ll eat a raw shrimp and post it on youtube.

I just never trusted Peterson’s smug, emotionless attitude about his fourth wife’s disappearance. Would seem to me that if he were smart, he would have played the anxious, gieiving husband to the hilt. But he just had this cocky attitude, almost like you could tell he thought he got away with Stacy’s murder because he believed no one would ever find the body.

I’m hoping the body is found and that Peterson’s smug look will disappear from his face. Would be nice to have him and Vandersloot brought to justice.

I hope they find her for her families sake. There is most likely nothing that can be done for her now I’m sure she would’ve contacted her family by now if she were still alive but it is important for her family to atleast know where and how she died.

Twitter from a news reporter on the ground:

The state police ordered everyone away from a property they have blocked off down here in Peoria.

Waiting now for a press briefing.

That is a good link.

Looks as if we will have to wait until next week for some results.

That’s so sad for her family, but the storms in that area of the country look pretty horrific on radar, so it’s to be expected, I guess.

Locals in the area are saying that the weather has now cleared and that they think that was, in part, to get the perimeter pushed back so not everyone can see what’s going on and who they’re bringing in.

Reports are already out that the family had been told earlier today and that they were “very optimistic” that they’ll be finding Stacy’s remains, and that some of the family is actually there...

So I’m wondering if we’ll hear of a similar situation as we did with Amber Dubois recently. Remains are found but it’s a good 18 or so hours before that is made public?

I just pray that this will at last mean answers for another family that’s been waiting - if so, that’d be quite something...Amber, Natalee, and Stacy’s killers found or arrested and/or bodies found all in a matter of 3 months.
