SCOTT PETERSON FLOODED WITH MARRIAGE PROPOSALS – IN JAIL

BACHELOR PAD Scott Peterson has become popular with the ladies since he was accused of murdering wife Laci. So far, none of his female penpals have visited him during his stay at Stanislaus County Jail in Modesto, Calif.

HOW "sick" is this?

Scott Peterson, accused of murdering his pretty wife Laci is being bombarded with letters from love-hungry ladies begging him to marry them!

Sources inside Stanislaus County Jail in Modesto, Calif., say the handsome 30-year-old fertilizer salesman has received marriage proposals from desperate gals of all shapes and sizes since his arrest April 18.

The kooky letters are delivered to the 6-foot-by-9-foot cell where Peterson is being housed alone to keep other prisoners from killing him in retaliation for the alleged murders of his wife Laci, 27, and their unborn son Conner.

"Inmates look down on men accused of killing women and children," says Stanislaus County Sheriff's Department spokesman Kelly Huston. "We don't want some three-striker with nothing to lose trying to harm Scott while he is awaiting trial."

Officials are so afraid that someone will get to their famous prisoner that guards are required to check in on him every 30 minutes.

Pretty, dark-haired Laci, a substitute schoolteacher who was eight months pregnant, was reported missing from the couple's Modesto home last Christmas Eve.

Peterson, who had joined in a frantic search for his wife, was charged with two counts of first-degree murder after the bodies of Laci and her baby washed ashore from San Francisco Bay in mid-April.

Now, at a cost of $34,000 a year to taxpayers, the suspect spends his days peering from his cell at a TV set mounted in a corridor and shared by inmates in five other cells. He receives three meals a day and is allowed to shower every other day.

Twice a week, two deputies escort Peterson to the jail roof, where he's given 90 minutes to walk, stretch or shoot a basketball.

He gets to spend as long as he wants with his lawyers. And he can respond to love letters in his spare time. But none of his passionate penpals have been invited to see him.

Peterson can have two personal visits every seven days. So far, he's only met with family members -- and none of his sicko fans.

[prophetic]

and meanwhile on similar news, O.J. Simpson is to be secretly wed in a private ceremony according to several re-lie-able sources...
When contacted for confirmation he smirked and said "well being a celebrity really helps and I figured using the media to get more exposure really had me getting the pick of the crop".

[Ben Bolt]

I told my wife this morning that I figured the ladies would swarm over him after his conviction . I stand corrected !

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Maybe it's a suicide thing.

[cgk]

I just don't get it...he's not even that good looking, he's not rich...what the heck????

A friend of mine once told me she thought The Night Stalker was sexy when she was young. She said she had no idea why she thought that way at that age. (early teens).

[Cathryn Crawford]

I saw that he was marrying some woman on the anniversary of Nicole's murder, but I figured that it was pure conjecture.

[Revolting cat!]

Dear Scott,

Please kill me next!

Yours,

Female Goofball

[NEWwoman]

Considering the way TV is going this days - this could be a blockbuster reality TV show: 50 women vy for the affection of a wife and baby killer.

On a serious note, may there be justice for Laci and Connor.

[Cathryn Crawford]

I don't understand it, either. Maybe it's the danger factor.

[Howlin]

LOL! Stop that!

[Psycho_Bunny]

So....I can end my current dry spell simply by murdering a pregnant woman?

[Poohbah]

Dear Scott,

Please kill me next!

Yours,

Female Goofball

Post of the day material here!

Marriage.....a few thrills.....pregnancy.......no having to deal with the "mess" of a husband......life insurance......book deal......movie of the week........

[cherry]

its our gender....we have so many among us that are just desparate and then there's the bunch that are just stupid and immoral....

its humiliating sometimes to call them one of us.....

about sp.....he is handsome, but he like Clintoon is not sexy in any sense....he is not charming, he seems unable to put one coherent sentence together ,and he has to use Viagra at his age....just think how bad he will be in 10 or 20 years...ugh.....

[No Truce With Kings]

Well, this *is* from that font of accuracy -- Star Magazine. Now I admit that the NYT recently hasn't been up to even Star's standards for accuracy and veracity, but that isn't a terribly high threshold.

It does answer one question, though. I have suddenly realized who is watching Fox News Channel now that they have gone "All Laci, All the Time."

[Michael.SF.]

anything is possible

OJ and Peterson are nothing compared to this guy:

Richard 'the Nightstalker' Ramirez

Believe it or not, he has a wife, to whom he was wed, while in prison.

[cgk]

There's been some opinion written on this phenomenon. Some of it (interesting, possibly factual), is Here.

The sheer outrageousness of loving a man who has murdered causes a woman to transcend her feelings of low self-esteem, of vulnerability. The thrill of her relationship makes her feel alive and important. By controlling the melodramatic events in their lives, women who love men who kill get a false and temporary sense of power.

[demlosers]

WHY IN GOD'S NAME?

Probably the same reason these guys almost got away with murder; the girls were just smitten with them.

[Paul Atreides]

I am baffled by women who do this.

I'm going to put on my flame-retardant suit here and offer a couple of theories:

1. They are losers; or,

2. They are the type who want the bad boy. The type who will marry a man, even though he has slapped her around the entire time they were together, before the marriage. Then, when they have lost enough teeth, and have had their fill of broken limbs, they will go on shows like Oprah and launch into a crying jag about how there aren't any decent men around.

[Revolting cat!]

This sort of thing happened with Ramirez (the night stalker). I am baffled by women who do this.

Baffled no mo! He has that famous star look!

[HassanBenSobar]

But no doubt you've noticed that the woman he was having an affair with was an outrageous hotty, so maybe women DO think he's good looking.

But when I hear stories like this, how some wife-murdering loser, unsuccessful fertilizer salesman (!) can get tons of hot chicks, whereas I...well, the song starts going through my head: 'I'm a loser, baby, so why don't you kill me...'
