Dandelion Recipes | Main | Jack Osbourne In Rehab April 23, 2003Husband Charged With Lacy Petersons MurderProsecutors charge Scott Peterson with murder. Because Lacy was pregnant, an additional 5 years could be added to his sentance, because (if it was him) he knew that she was with child. Five measly years. That's it. Scott Peterson pleaded not guilty to two counts of capital murder. Prosecutors have not decided whether to seek the death penalty yet. Lacy's parents are planning a funeral for their daughter and (unborn) grandson. For the first time, prosecutors say Peterson allegedly killed his wife at their home at 523 Covena Ave. on Dec. 23 or 24, the day she disappeared. Gosh. This whole thing is just horrific, isn't it? There was a similar case, I guess, a bit ago, but it did not recieve the amount of coverage this case is getting. NOTE: Someone asked for information on contacting Lacy's family. Here is the website lacipeterson.com.

I don't think I've ever been so moved/infuriated/sad about a murder case until this one. Laci was so pretty. Every picture you saw her in had a glow about her. And for Scott Peterson to have taken her life, and her child's life, in such a manner is just unimaginable.

I can not personally understand what the hell is wrong with people! I think they should post pictures of her in his cell with baby products, and some personal things of hers, tie his hands and make him suffer until they put him in the chair. Maybe if our laws were even more strict and crimes as these severely punishable, this insane bahavior would cease to be so common.

I think that the guys who did this should be locked up and they should trow away the key I may only be 14 but I know everything that is going on.

Hey, thanks, Andrea, I'll have to check that out.

It is horrific... and incomprehensible. My husband and I have poured over it and it just doesn't make any sense. If he wanted out... why didn't he just leave. To think in this day and age and technology and DNA and all that jazz that you can get a way with murder is so absurd. To take your wife's life and the life of your unborn child... I just don't understand. It is so sad. A sweet unborn baby's life is so worth so much more than 5 years.
Then the bastard has the balls to plead not-guilty. It is maddening. I can't wrap my mind around it.

We live about 35 miles away from Modesto and consequently have probably seen much more coverage than the rest of the country. It was nonstop for quite a while there. I have never seen someone show such little emotion in the days following as did Scott Peterson. It was truly like he didn't give a rat's ass about Laci and their son. All he was consumed with was dissolving their assests. Sounds a little like guilt to me, no?
Posted by: Lori | May 2, 2003 9:36 PM
I don't understand why Scott should have a trial. He is soooo guilty. He obvioiusly didn't care about Laci. What about torture, or burning? I think that would be ok too!
Posted by: Darla | May 3, 2003 9:56 AM
PEOPLE I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYONE SCREAMS GUILTY RIGHT AWAY , EVERYONE DESERVES A FAIR TRIAL THATS WHAT OUR SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED AND PLENTY OF PEOPLE GOT PUNISHED FOR WHAT THEY DIDNT DO. MEDIA LIES ALL THE TIME ABOUT EVERYTHING BUT WHOEVER DID THIS SHOULD BE PUT TO SUCH CRUTIAL DEATH PUNISHMENT THAT NOONE IN THEIR LIFE WOULD TRY TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT AGAIN! MY BEST REGARDS TO HER FAMILY AND I REALLY DO HOPE THEY FIND THE TRUTH AND PUT A PIECE TO THEIR MIND!

I've read ton and tons of books on crime and murder and by know I have become somewhat immune to how we as human beings treat each other. Somethings in life are just so sacred. For a man to take his wife, the one he promised to honour love and cherish to murder her.....and his unborn baby just boggles my mind. Wouldn't it have been easier for him to just say 'I want a divorce' If he was unhappy or fallen in love with someone else. What kind of person takes life ....and his unborn flesh and blood. And then lies and plays the poor widow.....a victim.. Did he really think he wasn't going to be caught??? What a moron. A monster. It makes me lose faith even deeper in humanity.

Has a DNA test ever confirmed that the baby Lacy was carrying was absolutely Scotts?? I am sure this must have been confirmed, since it might be a possible motive in someone doing away with Lacy Peterson but, I have never heard comment one way or another?

I cannot believe that the media has already made a self serving movie about the Peterson trial before his trial is even over. This is sick. When will people realize the manipulation that the media has over the the majority of the mindless, ignorant people in the US and just turn this crap off and listen to some music or read a book. Everyone, EVERYONE, deserves a fair trial. Anyone, ANYONE, who gives into the media propoganda and watches these "piece of crap" movies should register with braindeadmindlessidiot.com and then make an attempt to get a real life.
Posted by: Bandelo | February 13, 2004 11:25 PM
Ok I dont care what anyone says he is guilty and for doing such a thing to anyone much less your wife and poor innocent baby is sickning he deserves to have cruel punishment and definetly does not deserve to live.. he DISGUSTS me!
Posted by: Ashley | June 10, 2004 2:00 PM
Ok guys........Lets just keep positive and trust our system that whomever commited this cruel and inhumane act should be justly tried and convicted and recieve a suitable punishment for the crime. And yes I do believe that death is the suitable punishment for any monster that could have commited the hanus crime. My thoughts and love are with Laci's family.
Posted by: Shelley | July 14, 2004 3:55 AM
Oh paleeeeeeeeze!!! Trust our system? What rock do you live under? O.J. Simpson sure got what was coming to him didn't he? Of course money talks and it talked him right out of the death penalty. Sadly, Scott will get off because of the money backing him.
As for Scott Peterson, every piece of evidence points right back at him. His demeanor after the disappearance gave him away. The eyes tell it all. Look deep in his eyes they say G-U-I-L-T-Y!!
I'm willing to wait to hear all the evidence before I pass total judgment, but the evidence that has been presented is pretty daming and points the finger right back at Scott!
Perhaps the innocent, precious Conner and Lacy are much better off where they now reside.
We as a society have embraced almost everything as "acceptable". Are there no taboos, nothing left that is NOT acceptable. Until we bleeding-hearts stand up and draw the line we will continue to produce sick, crazy, maniacal monsters!

I am so so sorry for what has happened to your daughter and unborn grandchild...I recently lost my son on april 1 of this year here in the washington dc area...and to have to watch it on the news is even more devasting.....I pray that time will heal....but Scott deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail without the chance of parole.....he needs to live the rest of his life regretting what he did behind bars......
Posted by: Tammy | August 5, 2004 8:57 AM
Behind Bars? Please, he needs to die a slow and painful death. You would think that the guilt alone would eat him alive, but I guess he killed her for some reason. I think the cops should just lock him in a room and tase him until he confesses, then, when they have a confession, inject him with some slow and painful drugs so he has to suffer like Laci's parent, friends, and family had/have to.
Posted by: Angie | August 27, 2004 6:31 PM
scott, just admit that you killed your wife. you think you can get away with murder i hope you will burn I hell i can't see how you can kill your unborn child and your wife if you didn't love her there were other ways you could have gotten out you are not no kind of man not in life and not in your heart and if you do get away with murder i hope every day of your life that goes by you think of what you have done and you go insane thinking of every thing you have done and that you have done to everyone else.and to lacys family i am so sorry you had to go throw this and i pray for your family to get justice. God bless

I send my sympathy to Lacy's family,and I know Lacy would have wanted to leave this prayer with her family.Peace I leave with you,my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth,give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled,neither let it be afraid. Be perfect,be of good comfort,be of one mind,live in peace: and the God of love and peace shall be with you.To be carnally minded is death:but to be spirtually minded is life and peace. May God continue to keep the family near and close and strecth his arms of protection around you is my prayer,Amen.

i think that he is sooo guilty and he should be in jail for life he is soooo wrong for taking her life i might only be 15 but i understand....sorry!!!
Posted by: ashley | September 23, 2004 11:46 AM
He is guilty, there is nothing left to be said, what I don't understand is why he killed her, if he wanted out all he had to do was get a divorce, but I guess he didn't want to have to share all of their property with her, he wanted it all for him self. He is not only stupid to think that he could get away with muder, but he is stingy with their money, and thought he should keep it all for him self. instead of desolving their assets with her and getting his freedom. He thought murder was the way out. How LAME AND STUPID IS THAT!!!!!
Posted by: Joyce | September 26, 2004 8:49 PM
Everyone knows he is guilty, and if the court system doesn't find him guilty, he will not survive in society.He only has 2choices, put to death legally, or society will take care of it.Now that I think of it, that is still alot more choices than Lacy&Conner had.
Posted by: Wendy Dunson | October 1, 2004 4:03 PM
Peterson will never feel any guilt for what he has done to Lacy and HER unborn son Conner. Animals like him have no feelings period. And like O.J Simpson he may get off and also like O.J. Simpson society will do nothing to Scott. He is one of the "pretty/rich people" and if you are one of those people the fact is that you can get by with murder but inside trading. Our society is so scored up these days. If everyone would live according to God's word the Bible we could have such a better world to raise our children in and to live in.
To Lacy's Family my prayers go out to you and my Jehovah God bring you peace and justice.

What is the deal with Scott Peterson? He stares blankly in the cour room, seemingly more worried about what will happen to him than affected by his wifes' and sons' death. It is so obvious that he's guilty, I pray that he doesn't get off. Because if he gets off that will make me lose faith in our judicial system. HAve they showed Scott pictures of the remains of his wife and son? and if so, how did he react? Have law enforcement given him a lie detector test? It seems to me that if you have enough money to hire a few good lawyers that you can get away with anything. that's bulls***!!!
Posted by: Michelle | October 8, 2004 12:40 PM
I REALLY THINK THAT SCOTTPETERSON IS SO GUILTY. IF HE WAS NOT HAPPY WITH HER HE SHOULD OF WALKED AWAY FROM HER AND THE BABY. INSTEAD OF KILLING THEM. HE SHOULD FRY FOR THIS. HE TOOK TWO PRESIOUS LIVES FROM THE FAMILY THAT LOVED HER MOST I FEEL FOR THE FAMILY.MY PRAYERS ARE WITH THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF LACY AND CONNER.THEY ARE ANGELS NOW AND WILL ALWAYS BE LOOKING AFTER ALL THEIR LOVE ONES THAT MEANT MOST TO THEM .GOD BLESS YOU LACY AND CONNER.
Posted by: dawn hauschultz | October 31, 2004 12:12 AM
I think that Scott Peterson should be put to death for killing laci. She was very pretty why would any body want to kill her i dont know.
Posted by: Daisy | November 5, 2004 7:36 AM
I cant belive scott is being carged with 1st degree murder for his wife and 2nd degree murder for the "unborn" child when it happens every day with abortions which is much worse. think of it 9 month baby in labor(which is alive) and sticking something in its head compared to 8 month baby not in labor who isnt really "living" im not saying he shouldn't be charge but thats redickulos (pardon the spelling)
Posted by: Ryan Linde | November 13, 2004 11:46 AM
Poor Scott Peterson, the police, FBI, your lawyer, news media, etc, had framed you for a murder that you did not commit. I am forensic science expert & I am the only one who can exonerate you & save your neck. Watching your court hearing made me sick because no shred of evidence against you & I can prove it.
Keep in mind that your lawyer is one of the conspirators.
Posted by: Sir Don DeCarleone | December 3, 2004 11:35 AM
Any of your guys knows Scott Peterson home , e-mail, telephone. I ask only those people who believe that this Guy Is Innocent. No shred of evidence against him I can prove, as forensic medicine expert, that Scott is innocent.
Thanks for your kind attention.
Posted by: Sir Don DeCarleone | December 3, 2004 11:41 AM
you people make me sick. SCOTT PETERSON IS INNOCENT!!! show me the evidence that he did it!!! his behavior???--you tell me how someone who is bieng convicted of murder and possibly getting hislife taken frm him cause his wife and son are missing is supposed to act--- nobody can say anything because no one knows how it feels to be in scotts shoes, expecially if hes innocent. also there is no forensic evidence, no weapon. i think scott should be free until the fbi does their job and they can look at both families aND BE LIKE 'this is how she died and who did it' and why would we kill this man?? arent we trying to prove that killing another human being is wrong? so why would we retaliate murdering someone , by killing that person, scott peterson is an innocent man LACK OF EVIDENCE. and yeah he might of been cheating of laci- but who doesnt cheat these days.... it doesnt mean he had ot murder her- he could get a divorce if he wanted,.... HOPEFULLY JUSTICE CAN REALLY BE SERVED FOR LACI.
p.s. if scott peterson is a cold hearted killer like you allmakeit out to be, dont youthink the rochas should have noticed somehitng about him before it got so far that he killed laci. also if you were gonna kill someone and really try to get away withit why would you state your aliby inthe same place you put the bodies...?? common sense. you people are thick headed stupid ass's who let the media decide the verdict of this trial... life in jail is a little extreme for the lack of evidence inthis case- what is wrong wiht our court systems
