Tybee--Thanks for starting this thread. I just found out the forum was closed yesterday, and I wanted to tell everyone how much I admire each and every one of them for caring and trying to help put the pieces of the puzzle together. Cosmo

Thanks Tybee and you too Cosmo for your thoughts.

All I can say is that is was a historic search to discover the truth on everyone's part here, that is all Web Sleuthers. I think we pretty well nailed the truth about what happened to Laci and Conner as to the who, what, when, where and why, and how it was done.

I met so many posters here during the study of the case who gave great insight into the case due to their professional knowledge in different areas of expertise. I'll never forget the day I started a thread on 'The ME's Mineralization', and got an awesome response from a gal here who worked in a limestone quarry! I was bowled over. LOL

We were a real team. I only remember one or two problems during the duration of the forum, and they were solved due to astute mods w/ owner insight and approval.

Most of all I learned something about all of us together as a group, focused in on a project. We Love a Puzzle! I had more people tell me that. Solving the puzzle, trying to put a face on the answer.

Let's hope we have another case to study soon that is worth the salt of the Scott Peterson case. I will take what I have learned here and use it in any studies I do in the future. Thank you all for contributing so much.

Scandi: Can I disagree with this statement.I never ever want another case like this ever again.If we do that means another person is murdered for what? Yes I have made many good freinds with this case her on W/S.In fact some I am sure will be for the rest of my life online.
But I never want to go through the emontional part of it again.And for those of you who know me you know why I was attached to this case.

Sep 18, 2005 9:34 pm US/PacificKCBS) SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS/AP) - Laci Peterson's mother Sharon Rocha made an appearance at SBC Park in San Francisco on Sunday, throwing out the first pitch as the Giants held their annual "Strike Out Violence Day."

The day celebrates the San Francisco Police Department's Resolve to Stop Violence Program, which seeks to fight violence by offering offender accountability and community involvement.
Rocha said the program makes people more aware of violence against women and children, which is a topic close to her heart. Laci Peterson was killed by her husband, who was also convicted of murdering their unborn son.
It’s unfortunate that any of us even have to be here for this reason,” Rocha told KCBS reporter Ron Naso. “With awareness and prevention, we can strike out the violence.”Rocha’s appearance at SBC was one of the first since the sentencing of Peterson. more at link:http://cbs5.com/topstories/local_story_262003525.html

Scott Peterson's attorney did not stiff a Chico consultant connected to Mo-desto's best-known murder case, a judge ruled last week.
Edward J. Bronson, a nationally recognized jury consultant, failed to prove he had been hired by Los Angeles attorney Mark Geragos, a Butte County Superior Court judge decided.

Bronson's lawsuit "was meritless," Geragos said Wednesday. "It's poetic justice that (Bronson) recovered absolutely nothing since he did absolutely nothing, except to inject himself gratuitously into the case."

Now that the Peterson trial thread was shut down to new posts, is this the only active thread to look for "Scooter" in prison updates? I miss hearing from SQV and her posts on the on-goings at San Quentin. I'm missing hearing about how miserable Scooter is.

Former prosecutor promoted in Merced

Former Stanislaus County chief prosecutor John Goold has been promoted to the same post at the Merced County district attorney's office, less than a year since Goold made the move to Merced.

Goold joined the Merced office in September after a two-year stint in the Napa County district attorney's office.

He served as the chief prosecutor in Modesto from 1999 to 2007, acting as spokesman during the Scott Peterson murder trial, which drew attention from media outlets around the world.

Modesto officer arrested on claim of abuse
Police: Wife injured during dispute and gun was brandished

[snipped]

Later that year, Spurlock testified in the Scott Peterson murder trial. Peterson later was convicted of killing his wife and unborn child, Laci and Conner Peterson.

In December 2002, Spurlock questioned Peterson about his alibi as police searched the Petersons' La Loma neighborhood home in Modesto and the investigation into his wife's disappearance got under way.

Hard to believe that Conner's due date is coming up and on his birthday this year, he would have been 8 years old. Seems as if just yesterday we were all hoping and praying for a conviction for ISP!

http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q65/carsuch/laciconner-1.jpg

Oh, how is that possible! That means I was reading about Laci and Conner when my own little baby girl was just 2. No wonder it broke my heart into a million pieces!

8! That's not a baby or even a toddler anymore! That's so big!

Poor Conner...so sad you never got to play Little League or make a car for the Pinewood Derby...

This is when I found websleuths as well....but have never really posted again, apart from every few years. By the way Laci's birthday was May 4th, odd I should find myself back to this archived forum now, I remember being so emotional about this case.

True story about 2 weeks after Laci & Connor were found. We were driving home from Reno. I decided to take 80 instead of 5 . We just came to the beginning of the Berkeley Marina and the radio started to play Brown Eye Girl. I lost it tears came down my cheeks. Wife looked at me and said. You think maybe Laci is telling you she is ok? All I could was mutter yes. As many of you know she went missing on my birthday, Since that day she has been always been part of my life.

Amazing after all these years the hold Laci and Connor still have on so many of us isn't it? I think of them a lot - but particularly in February when Connor was to have been born, May because it was Laci's birth month and of course December. It's so hard to believe that Connor would already be nine years old had his father not snuffed out his life.

In November there is going to be a ballot vote here in California to get rid of the death penalty and give all DR inmates LWOP. It will be very interesting to see how the vote goes as in most polls Californians still support the DP, but the fact that it is never ever carried out here has an awful lot of people fed up with the system as it is (very expensive) which is not working as was intended. We don't have any money to waste anymore here in CA so the measure may well pass and Scott will never have to face the needle.

I think alot of people thought Scott smothered Laci on the bed but I always wondered if he could have been cold hearted enough to attached his man-made concrete weights to her and dropped her in the bay while she was still alive. I hope I am wrong that she didn't die that way.

I read somewhere that Scott keeps a picture of Laci in his cell by his bed. What a fool his is to still claim he didn't kill her. He could have just filed for divorce and paid his child support like everyone else does when they get a divorce.

txsvicki

05-16-2012, 10:03 PM

He could have smothered her because he did have a cut on his knuckle and there was a spot of blood on the comforter. I always wondered if he drugged her first because she was so tired at the hair stylist and there was evidence that they had eaten and drank something that night, I believe.

Every year around this time I reread Sharon Rocha's book "For Laci". I make it about 2/3 rds of the way thru and then cry my eyes out. I hope Sharon knows we still think and pray for her and Laci and Conner.

I bought that book,but still have not had the nerve to start reading it. Also still think of Laci and pray for her family every day.

That book was the most heart wrenching book I've ever read. The anguish Sharon felt and feels just came pouring out in that book, like a raw, read, violent wound.

It is horrific.

Like everyone else, I can't believe it has been so long. I think of Laci often. Something about her - her hopefulness about the future, her vulnerability, not knowing her worst enemy slept beside her - just struck me and never left.

Laci brought me to WS. So many years ago now, and I still only have 300+ posts lol.

I was just wondering something. With all this talk about 'ineffective counsel' in the JS case, what do you call an attorney not showing up for his client's sentencing??

I don't think I've ever seen that before. Did MG ever give a reason for not showing (a legit reason, please... :))

So now he's appealing his death sentence. I have to admit it did my heart good to read all the comments - he's just as reviled now as he was eight years ago. This appeal is probably money wasted anyway- more than likely California will vote to get rid of the death penalty in November's ballot and his sentence will be changed to LWOP. The one good thing I see about that happening is Scotty will finally get a cellmate...no more private cell for him.

I saw the show and I was wondering the exact same thing. So Amber is still a single mother but now she has a son also. I want to know how old her son is and who the father is. They never did say the age of the child on the show or who the father was. When they said she had a son I just had a OMG moment.

Amber Frey...what a hot mess! She told Anthony Flores that Ayianna was his child and he paid child support for years, but it turns out her real father is a guy named Christopher B. Funch that owns a bar called Porky's. She had a son named Justin a few months before the trial with the chiropractor she had worked for named Dave Markovich. They split up and she married a guy named Robert Hernandez in 2006, but they divorced in 2008.
