I posted the following a few days ago. At the time I was being sarcastic--or so I thought. The last two days of Scott Peterson news-mania has been about his "new look."

			Posted by TomGuy to Semper Paratus On News/Activism 05/25/2003 10:01 AM CDT #15 of 248 I guess it was too much to hope for the FR to be a Scott Peterson free-zone. Rita Crosby on FoxNews has issued a news alert from her special sources. Scott combs his hair left-to-right! Greta Sustren will be covering this latest development in depth on her program. She will delve into the psychological impact of this earth-shattering revelation.

I caught Greta on Fox news last nite interviewing Laci Peterson's family. Laci's parents said they have tried to get into their daughter's home and were told by Scott's attorneys that they couldn't go into the house.

I thought this was just horrible. To be denied access to your dead child's home.

What do you think of this? How can they legally deny them access to the house?

There will be more court hearings before July 16th, viewed from the short caption of yesterday's hearing, read here: Hearing datesMay 27, 2003 hearing results

"Police listened in or recorded at least two of the 69 calls between Peterson and Modesto attorney "

I was hoping that no rules would be broken...but even if they did...did they use the information to get knew information..hence the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine?

Harry, we were talking about Community Property on the other thread last night so I am bringing this over to the new thread this morning. Other Thread

I did a Google search on Community Property and found there is a fairly new law in Calif. in regards to the Community Property as far as a home is concerned.

All married California homeowners should know of this change.

New California Law: Community Property with Right of Survivorship
-- Law Effective July 1, 2001--

If you’re married and own a home or other real estate in California, it may help to know about a new law that will become effective July 1, 2001.

Background George and Barbara are married, and live and own a home in California. Their home has appreciated in value.

Joint Tenants. If George and Barbara own their home as joint tenants, they have created 50%-50% interests and a "right of survivorship". When one of them dies, the other (the survivor) receives title to the home outright (100%) by filing an Affidavit – Death of Joint Tenant with the County Recorder. This survivorship comes about regardless of what they say in their wills.

Community Property. Spouses (and only spouses) may own real estate as community property. Community property carries no automatic right of survivorship. If George and Barbara own their home as community property (without the effect of the new law), they have created 50%-50% interests, but without a right of survivorship. Each may pass on his/her share (50%) of the home to whomever they name in their will.

New Law: Community Property with Right of Survivorship
The new law provides for a right of survivorship for a married couple while owning a home or other real estate as community property. This would mean that when one spouse dies, the other spouse will own the home outright (assuming proper filing is done) and receive a "stepped-up basis" for the entire home (if it has appreciated in value) for capital gains tax purposes.Couples owning appreciated real estate as joint tenants may want to use the new law. To do so, consult an attorney experienced in this area for the necessary paperwork. Typically, this would be a deed signed by the couple granting to themselves their home as community property with right of survivorship. The paperwork may be created on or after July 1, 2001.

Maybe this is what the below action was all about.

THE FIVE FACES OF SCOTT

When Amber asked him if he had anything to do with Laci's disappearance,
Scott said; "Ah,ah, No! But I know who did."

[TheSpottedOwl]

Scott's latest incarnation has him resembling Adam Sandler. I'm worried that those taped phone conversations might damage the prosecution's case.

[EricT.]

I still think he looks and acts like the dirtbag fiance in "The Wedding Singer".
