Search warrants executed by authorities investigating the disappearance of Stacy Peterson focus on both physical evidence and a global positioning system in her husband Drew Peterson’s sports utility vehicle.

A warrant served on Drew Peterson late Tuesday called for the seizure of items containing plastic shavings, blood, bodily fluids, fingernail scrapings, palm or fingerprints, chemicals that may alter body decomposition and other ‘‘biological material that may be evidence of the offense of first-degree murder.’’

Drew Peterson says he's been shunned, betrayed
Ex-cop has been shunned, he says

"Apparently, it's not easy being Drew.

Drew Peterson said Thursday he would rather be remembered for something positive than something that would result in his picture being plastered on a piñata."


"On Thursday, his former friend, Ric Mims, acknowledged selling his story to the National Enquirer.

Earlier in the day, Mims appeared before a special grand jury investigating the Stacy Peterson case.

Peterson chalked up Mims' deal with the Enquirer as just another moment of "et tu Brute?""
 
CHICAGO — Former police officer Drew Peterson says he isn't getting a fair shake in the media or from people who were his friends before his 23-year-old wife disappeared.

Peterson's face recently appeared on a piñata at a prayer vigil held for Stacy Peterson, who was reported missing Oct. 29 after she failed to show up at a friend's house.

"It's like they had this vigil for Stacy, and the next thing you know there's a piñata with my face on it," Peterson told the Chicago Tribune. "All these policemen who were my friends, and I would have jumped in front of a bullet for, don't even talk to me."

BOLINGBROOK -- A trucker claiming he was approached by Drew Peterson and another man about carrying off a mysterious package seems to have fabricated the lurid tale, a police source said Thursday.

Investigators checked the truck driver's telephone records and determined he was actually in Louisiana, and not at a Bolingbrook truck stop in the early morning hours of Oct. 29, the day after Peterson's wife, Stacy Peterson, was last seen alive.

"I guess he just wanted his 15 minutes of fame," the police source said. "He wasn't even in the state."

Peterson Attorney Attracted by Challenge

AP article By CARLA K. JOHNSON

CHICAGO (AP) — "When a former police officer suspected in his wife's disappearance pleaded for legal help on the "Today" show, lawyer Joel Brodsky's first thought was: "What an idiot."

He thought Drew Peterson was foolish to discuss the disappearance on national television. But Brodsky also told his wife: "That would be an interesting case. I could do that case."

Brodsky, who soon began representing Peterson, initially welcomed the publicity, but he now says he got more than he bargained for. In recent weeks, reporters have looked into his own background. He receives hate mail from strangers, and he's besieged with constant interview requests.

Brodsky, who had never handled such a high-profile case, feels these days as if he's trying to derail a freight train on his client's behalf.

"I'm trying to beat back the tide as best I can," he said in an interview at his Michigan Avenue office. "I'm making myself as available as possible, apparently to the detriment of my health because I'm working 20 hours a day.""
 
LOCKPORT -- A police source slammed the state police orchestrated search for Stacy Peterson in the Chicago Ship and Sanitary Canal Wednesday.

"Yesterday was a complete waste of time," the source said Thursday.

The source said the seven-hour effort ended with zero cars moved away or hauled out of the water.

"They thought they would be able to hook onto these cars and pull them out," the source said.

But the cars came apart under their own weight and fell back into the water.

"The only thing they moved out of that canal was part of a T-top and the skin off one of the doors," the source said.

Peterson Attorney Attracted by Challenge

Asked what makes him proud professionally, Brodsky said: "When I'm able to protect people who are innocent and charged with a crime."
He paused to reconsider his answer.
"Innocence is a strange word," he continued. "People who the government can't prove did the crime, or did something bad or committed an offense, and they take them to trial anyway and I win. That's my proudest accomplishment."

 
BOLINGBROOK, Ill. (CBS) ― The word "pig" was scrawled Friday night in the snow in Drew Peterson's front yard. A young woman who called herself "Jen" did it.

"Because that's what he is," she said. "A complete pig."

She said she came to the house specifically to write that in the snow because "this is disgusting. This is breaking my heart about Stacy."

Moments after she and a friend sped away, Peterson left his house and talked about the incident.

Last Sunday night I introduced you to ANOTHER trucker who had an altercation with a man he says he believes 100% is Drew Peterson 13 days before Stacy disappeared. This trucker, Allan Scott, who was interviewed by me on Geraldo at Large last Sunday night, has now been interviewed by Illinois State Police and his 9-1-1 call to police the morning of October 16th when he describes how a man he says is Drew Peterson approached him at the 55 truck stop has been confirmed by Bolingbrook Police.

The family of missing Bolingbrook mother Stacy Peterson is joining forces with families of other missing people in hopes of bringing resolution to all of the unsolved cases.

The families of Lisa Stebic, John Spira, Scott Acaro and Bradley Olsen say efforts to find their loved ones will be strengthened if they all work together.

A minister from Plainfield said on national TV on Monday night that as he counseled Stacy Peterson in the months before she disappeared, she told him her husband admitted killing his ex-wife Kathleen Savio.

Rev. Neil Schori, formerly of Westbrook Christian Church in Bolingbrook, said Stacy Peterson, 23, blurted out that “he did it,” referring to her husband, Drew Peterson, 53, whose ex-wife was found dead in her bathtub in 2004. Savio’s death was ruled an accidental drowning at the time, but her body recently was exhumed for a second autopsy. Those results have not been released.
