Scott CANNOT benefit from a crime he committed

Sorry, Howlin, I have to call you on that - he hasn't been convicted yet. Once he's convicted, then you are correct. Until then, it's still his home...

CF, maybe you should look up California law before you state that matter of factly. From what the attorneys are saying, it would appear the house is sort of in limbo, and even though Laci is dead, she is still 50% owner of the house--which is to say, it's not "his" either and won't be unless he's exonerated.

[Howlin]

Actually, it's in limbo, which is exactly why the Rocha attorneys have been trying to get Geragos to do the right thing for the last month.

Because he is accused of her murder, he just cannot dispose of her belongings; the people who would be her heirs when he is convicted have a right to ask the court to STOP him from doing just that; they have that right.

Leaving aside the fact that it makes him look guiltier and guiltier; claiming that they can't go in because it's a crime scene after HE tried to SELL the house within weeks of her disappearance strikes me as JUST a little bit disengenuous.

NO, Until he's convicted and a Death Certificate is ISSUED, it is STILL in joint tenancy. Laci is an owner as to an undivided 1/2 interest.

Chad, you better be movin' down from up there in Fairbanks...the cold is beginning to affect your thinking.....

all along this thread you have stated boldly that the Rocha's are thieves....no trial, no arrests, no nothing....yet you state they are thieves....

well, if you can call them thieves without a trial , I guess the rest of us can call SP a thing or two as well.....

I'll await the trial, but I believe he is a merciless murderer...
