Okay. For me, that ends any doubt as to whether there really was a life insurance policy. And it ends any doubt as to whether money may have been a partial motive for Scott to kill Laci.

Principal Life Insurance Co. Hmmm. Wonder when the policy was really taken out. (I know what Scott said, but he's been known to lie...)

This is getting really interesting huh? I do recall that Amber's client and friend was a retired Detective and that he was currently working as a PI. Pretty incredible set of circumstances. Sometimes however, it can be a small world. This is just my feeling, but I have the feeling that when WE all get to see what they have on Peterson, even we are going to be shocked. It's like a puzzle and pieces just keep dropping into place and it's beginning to make an ugly ugly picture.

I think I read on another web site that it was taken out in the summer of 2001. The insurance info is in recently filed court documents. It could have been a partial motive, but I don't think it was the primary motive. I think we often error in assuming that behavior is motivated by one factor when in fact there is almost always several motivations....Scott's motivations: freedom, independence, maintenance of image, access to Amber, and $250,000 is a nice side benefit.
