Surely they checked out exactly when the Martha Stewart Makes Meringue Show aired?

"Distaso mentioned the gun several times and showed the jury a picture of it, vowing that an expert would later testify on when it was last fired. "

The day before the 24th?

And remember this: when that gun was discussed during the preliminary hearing, Sharon Rocha got up and quickly left the courtroom.

Hm.....

I think the meringues show was on the 23, the day she died. Not on the 24 the day he went fishing.

>>"Distaso mentioned the gun several times and showed the jury a picture <<

Do you think she was shot??

All this time I thought he strangled her.

Why would they call an expert to testify about when it was last fired?

And remember this from last week?




"REDWOOD CITY -- Scott Peterson's defense attorney Mark Geragos claims Modesto prosecutors withheld information for nearly a year- and-a-half about a former peace officer who claimed to have seen Laci Peterson get pulled into a van by two men.

In a motion filed Monday, Geragos charged the prosecution with misconduct for withholding the information until just before the trial.

If Geragos' claim is valid, the news could present Peterson's defense with an important new eyewitness who could raise serious questions about the prosecution's case. "




It's a LIE..........they gave him the name a year ago!!!

He's gonna get nailed for all this lying; he just cannot keep this up!

I think it was "How to cook your own goose."

Just my small list of info to add on:

Told police he left at 9:15-9:30 and went strait to fishing spot. Prosecutor said he was still only 1-2 miles away at 10:15-10:30 and was using his cell phone alot.

Told police what Lacy was wearing, but it turned out she was wearing (when found) the same clothes she had on the night of the 23rd. when her sister saw her. (I've always thought he killed her the night of the 23rd. and took her away on the 24th.)

Said she was watching Martha Stewart making Lemon Merg. Pie, but police found no show for that day with pies being made.

A few minutes after the Rochas arrived to start searching the park near Laci's house, Scott told Mr. Rocha he was fishing in the San. Fran Bay. And he told the uncle during the same search, he was golfing. Also told a neighbor earlier he was golfing.

Scott didn't know what he was fishing for, and police said he didn't know what he was using for bait, then said lures...what kind...he said "silver".

Before 3 weeks were up, end of Jan., he was already trying to sell the house. Tried to list and told the Real Estate Agent to keep it quiet. A week later he sold her car.

Told police the first night of search, they couldn't go to his warehouse to see his boat because there was no electricity. Cops took him there anyway, and guess what? His computer was on - that was the first thing they saw. Elect. worked fine....

No rope, no chain, nothing that could be used for an anchor was found in the boat.

Professional anglers will testify that no one could hope to catch fish with the equipment found in Peterson’s boat, Distaso said.

Hey Dev, I thought each side was limited to two hours for opening..just heard that Distaso took 8.....

I heard (on Fox?) that he took 6 hours and that while some thought that was too long, others thought he was very meticulous and at the same time compelling.

The prosecution has been tap dancing around this gun without giving an indication of what relevance it has. I do hope that they are toying with the defense. Wouldn't we be surprised if the smoking gun in this case was a ...smoking gun.

They lady who brought the dog back to the house will testify that the door was LOCKED; yet another lie by SP.

The DA closed with the autopsy photos of Conner.

Isn't it odd that he would tell a reator that he wanted to sell the house with all the furniture in it?
