Laci's things in tug of war

May 1996 - Three teenage Satanists in San Louis Obispo, California, are charged with raping, torturing and murdering 15 year old Elyse Pahler. Prosecutors say the defendants hoped a virgin sacrifice would earn them "a ticket to hell." (Indianapolis Star, May 3, 1996)

These guys were three guys in a garage band trying to make a name for themselves. Acting out the lyrics of a popular band's song. They were not part of a satanic cult, not "Satanists". I'm guessing many of the other examples you give have the same misinformation.

in order for her to benifit from the oxygen, she would have to wear that constantly

Not true. Oxygen for most is worn "as needed". They know when they need it. Stress also increases the need for 02.

Storm??? I zonked last night and didn't hear a thing! Fighting back tears as my 8th grader graduated yesterday wore me out.

I'd like to KNOW about SP brother....he gave him his ID, which I believe I heard on one of the talkshows that he was filmed placing it under the mat & SP retrieving it...how much does his brother know?? Is he involved??

[MaggieMay]

Yes, there are so many tantalizing bits of information that just make you want to know more. And as Ray would ask, how much connective evidence does LE have? That is the 60,000 dollar question,right? I was encouraged to read, that along with Connor's body it was reported,a cement bag washed up. We can all just hope and pray there is a recipt or a matching bag of cement at Scott's house,warehouse or storage locker.

Interesting post. Thanks for taking the time to put it all together.

Yes I have found it suspect also that he allowed his"ill" mother and sister-in-law to do all of his talking since this case began. I also suspect that none of his male relatives have spoken publicly, maybe they have a few skeletons too?
We have heard from Lee but I cannot take this man seriously since his tirade on LKL, he just strikes me as a man who has little respect for women. And I am still confused about the family and who's kids are who's.
If it does come out in the trial that Scott has other women while with Amber, yes I agree that she is just a symptom, but from the reports of his conversations with her all the way up till just before his arrest, I think she was his obsession.

Didn't know SP was iinvolved with a stripper. When did that come out and what's the scoop?

[daylate-dollarshort]

What.......?

THEY PLEADED GUILTY TO THE MURDER.!!!

They are only now, trying to say they didn't do it in an attempt to defend a wrongful death suit. Good Luck. Their guilty plea stands. They were convicted of the murder.

I doubt the prosecutor in the original murder case is going to agree with you!

[RGSpincich]

Don't mean to imply that it is you who is skewering the facts. Some reporting agencies like to spin cases a certain way to achieve the desired result.

[Rusty Roberts]

Both the DA and the defense "sources" have stated there are at least two other women involved with Scott, besides Amber, although neither would go so far as to describe the relationships as "girlfriend". One report has a stripper with Scott the night before his arrest, and he asked her to drive him to Mexico. This is not confirmed, I am just repeating what was reported from several sources a few days ago.

Sorry, I think the Peterson's and Geragos are a bunch of 5150s.....

Lol! I wonder what kind of a mother in law Jackie is, I'm starting to wonder about how their neighbors like them. Can you imagine living next door to them and having any kind of dispute??? Eeeek!

The Rocha family will never be the same again. Imagine when Christmas comes again. I don't think they know what hit them. I remember Nicole Brown Simpson's family and Ron Goldman's family and what they went through. I don't have cable, and usually miss the evening news so I haven't seen Peterson's attorney's antics. Maybe McAllister is embarrassed by everyone's behavior but has to go along with it. I hope Geragos' reputation suffers so badly that he is reduced to hanging out in county hospital emergency rooms looking for clients. He'd make a real good ambulance chaser, yeah?

Hey when I put myself in their shoes, I get fired up too ;-)

[Jackie-O]

You know I forgot who told me that about the oxygen thing, was a freper who is a RN or someone who's son was oxygen dependent...

[Velveeta]

Doesn't matter....she (JP) is still a raving enabling lunatic!

[Jackie-O]

Yes and the bodies were ID'd on Good Friday, and Laci and Connor were memorialized on Laci's 28th birthday...yes they will never be the same.

[MaggieMay]

You know Jackie-O, I think it may have been Oceanperch.

[Jackie-O]

Agree!!

[Jackie-O]

I think you are right..where is OP??

Try reading my other posts on this.

Well, the fact that you included the word "probably" in the above statement suggests that perhaps there is.....but the mob mentality that I've seen on these threads has given me cause to wonder. It seems to me that if Scott Peterson is guilty, he will in all likelihood be tried, convicted and sentenced in due time. I'm willing to wait for that......some here apparently are not.

These threads can get pretty rowdy, but it's an emotional issue. Scott aside, most people feel for the Rochas. They are going through hell and have to contend with Jackie Peterson's antics. People here appreciate how that makes the pain more intense for Laci's family, it also damns Scott in their eyes-makes me wonder also. I'm willing to wait for the trial and verdict, but I have to say that his behavior puts the "they were such a happy perfect couple" story to the test.

King Vanity may have hit another lotto, she's probably driving to the lottery office now. They are going to need a bank vault to keep his winnings. LOL
