Laci and Scott Peterson - Part 2

Laci Peterson, 27, went missing while walking her dog on December 24, 2002. She and her husband of five years, Scott, 30, were expecting their first child, a boy they’d named Conner. Scott’s image of the perfect husband quickly deteriorated when his mistress, Amber Frey, came forward. Suspicion quickly fell upon Scott; his every move was scrutinized and questioned as the nation and media became heavily invested in Laci’s disappearance. Months later Laci’s and Conner’s bodies washed ashore resulting in Scott’s arrest, trial, and eventual conviction. In the next three episodes, we attempt to reserve judgment and present evidence for and against Scott Peterson.

Hi, I'm Rich and I'm Tina. And if there's one thing we've learned
2
00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:06.480
in over twenty years of marriage,
some days you'll feel like killing your husband,
3
00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:10.160
and some days you'll feel like killing
your wife. Welcome to love,
4
00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:38.560
Mary kill Hi Tina. Oh,
hey, Rich, are you feeling better?
5
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:43.280
I feel so much better. That
was the loudest perfect I have ever
6
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:46.679
heard from you. You have no
proof. I am only you have no
7
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.359
I did not regret, as I
was not recording at the time, but
8
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:54.439
I can. Hey, Merry Christmas, testify Merry Christmas, Mary, Chris,
9
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:58.560
Ry Christmas listeners. Yeah, if
you're listening to this on Christmas Day,
10
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:03.320
Merry Christmas or if you celebrate Christmas, Merry Christmas. If not,
11
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:07.280
happy Holidays. That was Did you
like that song? That's my probably my
12
00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:11.519
favorite Christmas song. Well, I
wouldn't know because you didn't actually play it
13
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:14.319
for me, you know it though
it's a great song. It is a
14
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:19.200
great song. We were going to
attempt to make a Merry Christmas playlist for
15
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:21.680
our listeners, and hopefully we'll still
get to it. It might not be
16
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:26.560
until Christmas Day, but are we
not going to do that? Maybe we're
17
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:30.879
just first love is music, and
I think it. Yeah, I think
18
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:33.959
you would enjoy doing that. It
really would be for me and you.
19
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:34.879
All right, let's do it then, all right, we're going to do
20
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:38.079
it. All right, We're going
to really say how are our listeners going
21
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.719
to find it? We'll tell them
on our social media? Gotcha? Okay?
22
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:49.000
Cool? The Love Mary Kill Holiday
playlist. So we've had more Christmases
23
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:52.040
together than a part at this point
in our life. Have we really?
24
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:56.079
Wow? We definitely have. Definitely
have. You definitely have, but have
25
00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:00.079
I? Yeah, I'm older than
you, so I mean not like that,
26
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:01.599
Mitchell. I think you have also
had more? Yes, you have?
27
00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:05.120
I can, I can. I
did the you did the fast math.
28
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.519
I did fast math in my head. Yes. Cool, We've had
29
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:09.159
a lot of nice Christmas we have. I think we do it. I
30
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:15.439
love our Christmases together with our family. Yeah, pretty low key usually,
31
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:17.879
but I we don't usually. Yeah, we haven't traveled in a long time.
32
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:22.719
No, I just use the opportunity
to puzzle, sit around and do
33
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:24.879
nothing for like a week. Think. Yeah, and it is nice because
34
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:28.919
you do have the week off,
but this year probably gonna be doing a
35
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:31.240
little podcasting on our on your week
off. Yeah, Yeah, it's okay.
36
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:35.800
I love that. What are some
of your favorite things your traditions.
37
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:38.479
Well, I love we always watch
It's a Wonderful Life, and as you
38
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.800
know, that's like my favorite Christmas
movie, and mine is probably Elf,
39
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:45.560
and we I love Elf too.
I love Elf, and I really I've
40
00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:47.879
come to really love Home Alone,
Home Alone. I do too, I
41
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:52.360
do too. But It's a Wonderful
Life. Every year we watch it,
42
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:54.680
and every year I cry, and
every year our daughter cries as well.
43
00:02:54.759 --> 00:03:00.120
I think we all just a little
bit. Yeah, yeah, because I
44
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:05.120
have I have the Hallmark Christmas movie
station on the kitchen all the time,
45
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:08.039
so I have I haven't watched any
Christmas movies really from start to finish.
46
00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:13.639
And well it's stay. Yeah,
we're officially running. Yeah, it's been
47
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:16.120
it's been a little chaotic. Yeah. Do you have any other traditions that
48
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:23.840
you are particularly fond of. Well, it's it's just hard being the mom.
49
00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:27.199
That's all I'm going to say,
is the mom hoping for a robe
50
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:32.120
this year. I'm not a robe
where so no, I'm actually hoping.
51
00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:35.319
I don't get a robe. But
you you try, I know, you
52
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:38.840
try your best. You've been super
busy and really at this point of my
53
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:42.719
life, I wish we could give
people the gift of time. Yeah,
54
00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:46.479
I wish you could give me here
is a gift of two hours where you
55
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.560
can lay around and read a book
and take a bath or you know,
56
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:53.960
things like that. I think that's
what people when you get older, that's
57
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:54.800
really what you want. Or like, you know, I'm going to gift
58
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:59.240
you a and you can like a
nice dinner with our family where you know,
59
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.199
we just have nice, a nice
time together. You know, I
60
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:04.599
think those are the things that matter
the most. Yeah. Sure, I
61
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:08.280
thought. Wait, I was gonna
say just one word, like cheesy,
62
00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:12.000
mom, is just this year,
as you're sitting around with your family and
63
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.800
you're looking at your family, just
try to remember and think to yourself,
64
00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:19.040
these are the good old days.
Yeah, because you know, hopefully this
65
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:23.040
year you're with your loved ones and
they might not be here next year,
66
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:26.920
and you know, just try to
really soak it up. Soak it all
67
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.120
up. That's what I try to
do sometimes, is just enjoy the time
68
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.319
that you have together. Yeah.
Absolutely, things might not be perfect,
69
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:36.480
but you know we're doing all right. Yep, for sure, Well I
70
00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:41.120
brought you some fuss. Sure for
sure, we say that a lot.
71
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:44.800
Do you brought me some fudge?
I did, Well, you made one
72
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.120
of these and I made one of
these. But yeah, there's two kinds
73
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:51.000
of fudge. One is your nutella
sea salt fudge, right yeah, and
74
00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:55.120
then the other is peanut butter fudge. It's too and all I've had is
75
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:58.759
cookies, so it's a perfect day. Well, here's some more for you.
76
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.720
The peanut butter fudge is I use
the Brown Eyed Baker recipe, which
77
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.480
I think there's a lot of recipes
that are very similar, but it's very
78
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:11.120
simple. Peanut butter powdered. Yeah, I will put it. Will post
79
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:15.319
these recipes. I'm going to post
them early because it's Christmas Day when this
80
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.560
is releasing, so if anyone is
looking for a recipe. The nutella sea
81
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:24.600
salt fudge is so easy and it's
really creamy. Something else. Some fudge
82
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.959
can be a little it's not maybe
the best chocolate. I think I could
83
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:33.040
have used better chocolate chips. It's
just nutella chocolate chips and sweet and condensed
84
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:36.639
milk with a little bit of sea
salt on top. And it's it's good.
85
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:46.480
It's creamy. Let's take a quick
break have a little sample that was
86
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:51.720
delicious. We always say that,
but it always is not always. Yeah,
87
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:56.319
you always have the chicken, the
chicken what was it chicken laise or
88
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:59.560
something. Those are gross, Oh, those were gross. But the peanut
89
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:01.160
butter fudge is like my favorite.
I love that, the new telefudge.
90
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.720
It's just so smooth and creamy.
Great. If you're from Michigan you know
91
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:09.160
this. But Michigan is kind of
known for its fudge. That's true,
92
00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:12.319
seriously, Like I'm not sure how
that happened, but like Mackina Island and
93
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:16.639
just anytime you go on a up
vacation up north, there's fudge, fudge
94
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:24.079
and pasties. Okay, I think
we've surpassed our or five minutes that we
95
00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.800
told people were trying not going to
talk for more than five minutes, and
96
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.480
we've already all right, well we
should talk about Scott and Lacy Peterson.
97
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:34.120
You know, I've been having nightmares. I'm not exaggerating, No, I've
98
00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:39.720
been having nightmares and I'm having trouble
sleeping. So I'm really excited to say
99
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:42.680
goodbye to this case. Yeah,
this is one that has gotten I know,
100
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:45.319
in your head, especially a little
bit in mine, but not I
101
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:48.360
think not quite as much as you
well, and I think we haven't really
102
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:51.399
everyone knows what we're gonna end up
saying, you know, how we feel
103
00:06:51.439 --> 00:06:55.399
about the case at the end,
but my opinions definitely have changed a little.
104
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:58.160
Yeah, I'm just going to say
that. We'll talk more about that.
105
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:03.959
So we left off basically on December
twenty fourth of twenty two, thousand
106
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:09.839
and two, when Lacey was reported
as being missing, and we talked about
107
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:13.480
kind of Scott's day, what he
claimed, you know, when he left
108
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:15.279
the house and going fishing on the
bay and all that type of thing.
109
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:19.839
I'm going to cover a little bit
more of the initial search and I'll touch
110
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:23.240
on some of the things, same
things that we've talked about so far,
111
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:27.879
but we'll kind of go from there. So we did talk about when the
112
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:33.639
police first showed up and Scott volunteered
right away, the time stamped receipt from
113
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:36.720
the marina at twelve fifty four.
A couple of other things I wanted to
114
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:41.439
say about that too, is they
asked him some questions about his fishing trip
115
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:43.360
initially. Yeah, I was going
to mention that too, Yeah, like
116
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:46.040
what did you go fishing for?
What did you use for bait. Where
117
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:49.040
did you keep your fishing gear?
And he his answers were very awkward,
118
00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:51.560
like he didn't know what he was
fishing for at first, and then he
119
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:54.800
kind of, oh, well,
I was fishing for this. And when
120
00:07:54.839 --> 00:08:00.120
he had like fresh water lures,
his fishing pole wasn't put together. I
121
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:01.959
mean there was the lures weren't taken
out of the package. Well he had
122
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:05.519
left him that he forgot them in
the truck. But yeah, yeah,
123
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:09.199
So there was a lot of things
like that that were a little bit They
124
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:13.319
felt that we're a little bit off. When you wanted to mention the fishing
125
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.360
license, I don't think I mentioned
that, or I didn't write. So
126
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:20.560
the fishing license they had was purchased
on the twentieth, twentieth, right,
127
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:26.079
and it was only good for the
twenty third and the twenty fourth. So
128
00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:30.439
yet another thing that he had to
have bought this fishing license four days earlier
129
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:33.000
and he could only use it on
those two days. Well, again,
130
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:37.639
I'm not I'm going to be the
scout apologist. You can be the devil's
131
00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:41.960
advocate for right exactly. I don't
think that's that weird. In my opinion,
132
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.039
it was weird that he canceled golf
and he said it was too cold.
133
00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:48.080
But he knew the work was going
to be slow. It's you know,
134
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:50.679
Christmas Eve and the day. You
know, things kind of come to
135
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:56.360
a screeching halt when you're working around
the Christmas holidays, right because you usually,
136
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:00.919
like you know, end up taking
off more time. And you know,
137
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:01.919
he knew that work would be slow
so he would be able to get
138
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:05.600
his boat in the water. He
had just bought this boat. He wanted
139
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.039
to get it in the water.
So to me, that wasn't that big
140
00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:13.320
of a flag. Yeah, I
mean I can see that. I still
141
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.279
think it's pretty suspicious that you bought
this fishing license for two days only and
142
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:20.200
then, you know, like you
said, he initially was going to go
143
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.200
golfing and then kind of changed his
mind. But he had already planned in
144
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:28.000
advance to go fishing or have the
license at least the boat. We didn't
145
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:33.080
talk about this before, but the
boat was It was an inexpensive boat,
146
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.879
but it wasn't like a cheap boat. It had like a fish finder on
147
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.440
it, and you know, for
the someone said it was actually a really
148
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:45.399
good deal on this boat. My
point is, if Scott wanted to buy
149
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:48.320
a boat just to get rid of
Lacey's body. He could have bought a
150
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:52.679
cheaper boat. True, good point. So on Christmas morning. The next
151
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.639
day, detectives continued combing the neighborhood. They knocked on doors, They talked
152
00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:01.519
to neighbors. Amy Crigbaond, who
lived across the street. At five point
153
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:07.360
twenty Covina said that she hadn't seen
Lacey walking in some time, assume because
154
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:11.720
of how pregnant she was. She
also said that Lacey's usual routine was to
155
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.559
raise the front window shades in the
morning and lower them again in the evening.
156
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:20.080
I'm laughing, No, I'm just
laughing because we talked about this last
157
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:24.759
time. We didn't collate our scripts
at all, and my four sentences are
158
00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:30.360
almost exactly what you just said.
Lacey hadn't gone walking in a while.
159
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.320
The lines were drawn on Christmas Eve
and yeah, and she noticed that the
160
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.840
yeah, the blinds had not been
right again. You know, we just
161
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:41.960
want to try to cover all bases. It was cloudy and rainy, and
162
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:46.159
there really wasn't a reason to raise
the blinds. Yeah. That afternoon,
163
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:50.600
Scott was scheduled to come in and
take a polygraph but he called the detectives
164
00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:54.320
and said that he had changed his
mind on advice from his father Lee.
165
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.919
Later that afternoon, Scott called detectives
and asked for a progress report, and
166
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.279
he also asked whether they had used
kidaver dogs yet, which surprised the detectives.
167
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:07.320
Over the next few days, the
police conducted a number of searches,
168
00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:13.000
including grid searches by air, bloodhound
searches on the ground, and more searches
169
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:16.200
of the Peterson home, Scott's office, and the boat. We didn't talk
170
00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:22.559
much about the Peterson's neighborhood, but
it was the East Loma Park. There's
171
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:24.320
a lot of parks surrounding it.
Yeah, so there was a lot of
172
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:28.200
searches of parks, right. And
I wanted to mention too that the police
173
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:33.039
did confirm with neighbors that Scott did
come over and knock on their door and
174
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:37.039
say, Hey, Lacy's missing.
Have you seen her? Yes. Allegedly
175
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.799
he did say to one of the
neighbors, Hey, I've been out golfing
176
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:43.600
all day, that's right, Yeah, which is definitely a little suspicious.
177
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:48.679
Yeah, exactly like he was going
to use that as an alibi, and
178
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.360
then changed his mind when he knew
that people knew he was at the marina.
179
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:54.720
I'm not sure why he would have
done that though, because he knew
180
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.559
people saw him at the marina,
right. I mean, that's another question
181
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:03.240
that I have. I don't want
to get too far off track. But
182
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.720
if he did some lazy's body in
the bay, why did he tell them
183
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:13.360
exactly where he was? Yeah?
And why did police release that information?
184
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.679
But that's another story. Yeah,
it's a good question. Lacey's family and
185
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:20.240
friends set up a command center for
her search at the Red Lion Hotel.
186
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:28.159
They printed thousands of flyers with Lacey's
photo and reward information. One little anecdote
187
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:31.879
that came out later is the there
was a family friend. His name was
188
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:35.879
Harvey Kempele, and he testified that
he had followed Scott from the command center
189
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:39.080
at the Red Lion Hotel to a
local mall where Scott had said that he
190
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:43.120
was going to hang the flyers.
I don't know why he followed him.
191
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:46.480
I think he may have been suspicious
about Scott. But he saw Scott just
192
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.480
sit idly in his car for about
an hour, never hung a single poster
193
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:52.559
up, and then just turned around. And another time he said he followed
194
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.120
Scott from the command center where he
was going to hang flyers and he went
195
00:12:56.159 --> 00:13:00.320
and played golf. Yikes. Yeah, just you know, another couple of
196
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:05.919
things like Scott's behavior being a little
bit off the movie Gone Girl. I
197
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:09.000
don't know what year that was released, Like the book. We both read
198
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:13.519
the book and then the movie was
released, And whenever I think of this
199
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:18.120
time in the case with the Red
Lion Hotel, I just pictured bed asfuck,
200
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:24.080
just walking around and like you know, being social and eating ribs and
201
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:30.000
just you know, his behavior definitely
was more laid back than it should have
202
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:31.799
been. Yeah, that book Gone
Girl had to be partly based on this
203
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:37.200
kill, for sure. Definitely.
The police received tips from a few people
204
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:39.519
who claim to have seen a pregnant
woman with a dog on the morning of
205
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:45.639
the twenty fourth wearing wearing I don't
know, oh, you don't know,
206
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:50.360
black like leggings and a white like
a white lung snatching what Scott said,
207
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:54.759
white laying white sneakers. Yeah,
And there were quite a few people that
208
00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:58.320
came forward at various times throughout this
whole process, which I think casts a
209
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:03.279
lot of doubt a lot for a
lot of people. We haven't talked about
210
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:09.639
the documentary yet, but that documentary
they allegeda believe that there was two dozen
211
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.720
people that saw Lacy Yeah. While
the police were at the Peterson's home on
212
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:18.559
the twenty sixth, the neighbors across
the street, the Medinas, arrived home
213
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:20.320
after being away for a couple of
days to find that their house had been
214
00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:24.200
broken into. They came over and
reported it to the police, who went
215
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.639
over to take a look. They
could see that the entry had been made
216
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:31.600
on the side of the house.
Someone had kicked in their French doors.
217
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:35.080
The Medinas reported that a personal safe, which had been in the primary bedroom,
218
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:39.000
was missing, along with some power
tools. A day or two later,
219
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.799
a woman named Diane Jackson came forward
saying she witnessed the burglary. She
220
00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:48.639
said she was driving along Covina Avenue
at eleven forty a m. On the
221
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:54.879
twenty fourth and saw three short of
stature, dark skinned but not African American
222
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.639
guys standing in the Medina's front yard
near a van. She first said it
223
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:01.440
was a white van, but then
she said it might have been a darker
224
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:05.840
color. So the burglary has become
one of those nuggets in this case that
225
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:11.519
we just can't decipher, and it's
frustrating because no one knows when it happened.
226
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:16.279
Yeah, so we do know when
the family was gone from They left
227
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:22.080
their house at around ten thirty on
the twenty fourth, and they came home
228
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:24.720
at four to twenty pm on the
twenty sixth, so we know the burglary
229
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:31.240
happened sometime during that timeframe. They
ended up arresting two guys, at least
230
00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:33.360
two guys. There may have been
more involved, but we know that they
231
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:39.279
rested Stephen Todd and Donald Glenn Pearce
on January tewod so that was pretty quick,
232
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:41.240
pretty quick. Yeah, they claimed
that they broke into the house.
233
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:46.399
They first said on the twenty seventh, which wouldn't have been possible. We
234
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:48.440
know that we know that the Medinas
were home by then. But then they
235
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:52.360
kind of changed their story. They
said, well, it was probably on
236
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:56.200
the twenty sixth, and they said
it was between three am and seven am.
237
00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:58.720
And there's been a lot of people
that have said that couldn't be the
238
00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:03.879
case because there were news crews out
there and they would have seen them.
239
00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:07.799
But we don't know if the news
cruise. I've read that they didn't get
240
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:11.200
out there until like five am,
and it was really the first that day
241
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.919
was only Ted Rowlands would have been
the only one out there. Ted Rowlands
242
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:19.759
yea, and I have seen I
believe it might be the first live feed
243
00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:26.720
from Ted and it's definitely darkish,
but not dark. So I do think
244
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:30.639
it's plausible that it was the twenty
sixth. I think for a long time
245
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.840
I did think it was on the
twenty fourth. Yeah, but it does
246
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:37.080
make more sense that it's the twenty
seven. But there is an eyewitness.
247
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:41.519
There's an eyewitness, But those guys
did take live detector tests as well,
248
00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:45.799
and they apparently passed them. But
I also think like that eyewitness, so
249
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:52.399
if it was after eleven o'clock or
eleven thirty on the twenty fourth, was
250
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:56.200
already missing. Yeah, yeah,
And if you're a burglar, it just
251
00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:57.559
doesn't make sense that you're going to
do that in broad daylight. So I
252
00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:06.799
feel like that witness must be mistaken
somehow possibly, But Lazy also had the
253
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:11.880
personality I believe where she would have
intervened if she saw something amiss. I
254
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:15.039
think she could have walked over and
be like, hey, you guys,
255
00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:18.599
what are you doing? The Medinas
are on, they're away you know,
256
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:22.400
you shouldn't be here, so I
could see her intervening. And I think
257
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:25.640
for a long time I did think
it was more possible than I do now.
258
00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:27.240
Yeah, I think I think you're
right about that. But the timeline
259
00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:30.920
just doesn't work. That's the biggest
problem I think with it. Is it
260
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:34.279
just unless they unless they got there, you know, exactly when the Medina's
261
00:17:34.359 --> 00:17:40.440
left, and you know, again
it could be possible they're casing the joint,
262
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:42.240
you know, just like on home
alone. They probably had a stack
263
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:48.000
of pizzas delivered the night before.
And yeah, so it's it's plausible,
264
00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:52.960
but probably not likely. Yeah,
and your least your worst evidence is an
265
00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:56.319
eyewitness. Is that true. I
think that's probably true, especially in a
266
00:17:56.359 --> 00:17:59.319
case like this that has so much
attention. You know, people are just
267
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:03.480
people, and I'm not saying that
people were intentionally lying, but I think
268
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:07.799
you see this on the news over
and over. Yeah, somebody, sure,
269
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.680
Yeah, it's just you think you're
being a helpful citizen. You think
270
00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:15.279
you're going to move the case along. You If our neighbor went missing,
271
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:18.720
our pregnant neighbor went missing, I
would be devastated and I would I would
272
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:25.480
definitely be searching my memory bang for
any little granular bit of evidence that I
273
00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:29.720
could pass along to the police.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, So I
274
00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:33.480
was going to talk a little bit
about some of the searches that were done
275
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.400
with dogs. Now, So there
were a number of different searches with bloodhounds.
276
00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:41.759
The first search they did was from
the Peterson's home and they had a
277
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.039
scent dog. They you know,
gave gave the dog some items of Lacey's.
278
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.920
The dog followed her scent right down
the middle of Covina Avenue, which
279
00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:52.640
the handler said that that was an
indication that Lacey left in a vehicle,
280
00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:57.200
not on foot, although again this
is all you know, this is all
281
00:18:57.279 --> 00:19:00.000
speculation, right because she could have
walked the middle of the street. We
282
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:03.680
don't know. Well, you and
I have talked about this, so I'm
283
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.079
going to let you finish and then
we can I'll give you my opinion for
284
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:11.960
what it's worth. Sure, So
the dog followed the trail west and then
285
00:19:12.079 --> 00:19:17.000
south before the dog lost the scent. They then took the dog to the
286
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:21.559
parking lot of Scott's office and the
handler walked the dog around the parking lot
287
00:19:21.640 --> 00:19:23.720
to try to pick up the scent. When they got near Scott's office.
288
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:27.680
The dog's tail immediately went up,
indicating that he had picked up Lacey's scent.
289
00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:33.480
The dog followed the scent south on
Emerald Avenue, then westbound on Highway
290
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:37.079
one thirty two, which is the
way that one would drive from Scott's office
291
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:41.839
to the marina, before losing the
scent again. And then lastly, the
292
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.440
police took the search dogs to the
Berkeley Marina, and while it wasn't conclusive,
293
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:48.759
the handler was of the opinion that
the dog picked up Lacey's scent in
294
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:53.440
the parking lot and then let it
down the boat ramp. So I did
295
00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:59.319
just a little bit of research on
sniffer dogs or sent dogs or there's a
296
00:19:59.319 --> 00:20:03.119
difference between sniffer dog and a cadaver
dog, I believe. But so a
297
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:07.920
handler said that it's really not possible
for a dog to be able to determine
298
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:12.039
that Lacy went off in a vehicle. That's just not They would they would
299
00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.240
lose the sense. Yeah, it
does seem very it would be pretty amazing.
300
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:18.839
But well, and dogs are amazing, I mean, and they do
301
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:25.200
have you know, they can pick
up sense really well. So all all
302
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:30.160
handlers of sniffer dogs are volunteers,
right, you can't pay someone to do
303
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:34.880
it because then you know your your
motives might be off. Yeah, and
304
00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:40.200
the whole you know, confirmation bias, I think comes into play there.
305
00:20:40.279 --> 00:20:45.359
Sure. So I think that a
dog, like if you if the dog
306
00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:48.680
has a task, like you know, hey, Fido, we want you
307
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:52.799
to find this cocaine and there's you
know, like, I think that that
308
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:56.839
is a great use of a of
a dog, or if it's a cadaver
309
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.960
dog, and the cadaver dog can
lead you to the remains of something.
310
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:03.200
But in this case, when you're
just trying to pick up a cent,
311
00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:07.039
I feel like that's a little more
subjective. It is, And to your
312
00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:11.200
point, none of the dog tracking
evidence was allowed at trial except for the
313
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.880
search at the Berkeley Marina itself,
and the judge did allow that evidence,
314
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:19.640
but he did say that it was
if he at best. So you're right,
315
00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:23.240
it's not a it's not an exact
science, and it's kind of like,
316
00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:26.359
you know, you've got the handler
and the dog, and that relationship
317
00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:32.079
is a very tight relationship. The
only person that can interpret the dog's behavior
318
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:36.279
is the handler. Yeah, And
so again, confirmation bias just plays into
319
00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:38.359
this, and like we were saying
with the neighbors, people really wanted to
320
00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:44.000
find lazy, and I think sometimes
your motivations are in the right place.
321
00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:48.680
But yeah, I think that,
you know, the sniffer dogs sometimes aren't
322
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:52.319
as reliable as we want them to
be. And sometimes they're a nightmare.
323
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:55.720
I heard a police officer talking about
and just said, they're a nightmare to
324
00:21:55.759 --> 00:21:57.960
work with because you know, it's
a dog, but it's a working dog,
325
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:03.680
and working dogs can be They're serious, they take their job seriously and
326
00:22:03.759 --> 00:22:07.599
they you know, I say,
they were like Prima Donna's that they you
327
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:11.480
know, and they have like a
fancy dressing room and stuff like that.
328
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:14.160
No. I mean, dogs are
great though, but like I said,
329
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:17.279
if they have like a very distinct
purpose, like find this, not just
330
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.759
oh tell us if you the scent
was here, you know, there's there's
331
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:23.039
some gray area, I think,
and I don't know if we're going to
332
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:26.319
talk about this, but some of
that I don't remember the name of the
333
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:30.759
dog, but the dog, one
of the dogs that was used heavily had
334
00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:33.839
failed her certification. Oh multiple times. Oh, I didn't know about that.
335
00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:37.599
Yeah, it's interesting, all right, So we'll take take the dog
336
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:41.920
evidence for what it's worth. We
love dogs. Dogs are great. We
337
00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:45.519
don't get the wrong idea. The
other thing I was going to talk about
338
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:51.000
is the tarp in Scott's truck.
Yeah. So, on the twenty sixth,
339
00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:53.759
the police impounded Scott's truck, and
when they examined it late that evening,
340
00:22:55.000 --> 00:22:59.400
they noticed that the tan tarp which
had been covering the boat, the
341
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:03.000
patio and umbrellas, the bag with
the fishing lures, and a few other
342
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:06.480
items were no longer there that had
been there when they first looked at the
343
00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:11.559
truck on the twenty fourth. They
later located the umbrellas in Scott's backyard and
344
00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:15.640
the tan canvas tarp was in a
shed at Scott's house with a leaky leaf
345
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:19.880
blower on top of him. I
was like, how did how and why
346
00:23:19.920 --> 00:23:22.480
did they get there so quickly?
No, it makes no sense. The
347
00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:29.720
tark was soaked with gasoline, which
made it and the shed almost useless.
348
00:23:29.720 --> 00:23:33.319
From an evidentiary stand, I think
he made it look like the leaf blower
349
00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:36.119
had been leaking, and he just
put the leaf flower on top. But
350
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:41.279
they said the leaflower really wasn't leaking, so he must have doused the boat
351
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.839
cover with gasoline to throw off the
scent dog. Yeah, and again this
352
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:48.160
was like going back to our conversation
in part one about Scott was he took
353
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:52.240
care of his things. He was
pretty meticulous and he you know, he
354
00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:56.519
wasn't careless with the things they owned. And that boat cover is not cheap,
355
00:23:56.640 --> 00:24:00.279
like this is a nice, you
know, canvas boat cover. So
356
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:03.640
there's just it just boggles the mind
how that would it would end up soaked
357
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:08.519
in gasoline. I had another question
about scent dogs too, So I know
358
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:11.680
that scent dog was given some of
late Lacey's possessions. I believe a hair
359
00:24:11.720 --> 00:24:18.359
brush, a slipper, sunglasses,
one of Scott's slippers I would think was
360
00:24:18.839 --> 00:24:22.039
given to Yes, I can't,
I can't remember exactly what was given.
361
00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:27.160
But so if if they're Lacey's sunglasses, first of all, I'm just curious
362
00:24:27.160 --> 00:24:32.680
how much scent right adher's sunglasses.
Yeah, I thought that was kind of
363
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:34.359
an odd idea. But if Scott
is you know, Scott's in the house
364
00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:38.039
too, does anything that lazy don't
have his scent just automatically in it,
365
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:41.240
you would think so. I mean, obviously, if it's a slipper,
366
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:44.160
it must have a lot of her
scent in it. Right, he's handing
367
00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:47.920
over the sunglasses. So I'm just
curious about that, you know, like,
368
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:51.119
if that's the items that they were
going off of, you know,
369
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:52.720
how do you know that Scott's scent
wasn't on that? Right? Yep.
370
00:24:55.119 --> 00:24:59.000
The last thing I was going to
mention about the searches and this this phase
371
00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:03.920
of the investigation is they also searched
Scott's shop again on the twenty sixth,
372
00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:07.559
which is when they found a pair
of needle noosed plyers beneath the bench seat
373
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:11.480
in the boat which had a single
hair in them, which turned out to
374
00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:17.720
be Lacey's hair. I know We've
had some discussion, Yeah, had some
375
00:25:17.759 --> 00:25:22.000
demain. My understanding is the flyers
were rusted shut and the hair must have
376
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:26.720
been there for some time. Just
read something last night about how the plyers
377
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:33.119
were placed in an evidence bag and
then there were two hairs and everyone's like,
378
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:36.680
how did two hairs get there?
Yeah? I read the testimony from
379
00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:40.839
the expert on this. So they
did say that the pliers were very rusty
380
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.359
to the point where it was difficult
to open them. But the thing is,
381
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:48.480
the person that did the examination examined
them on February twenty fourth. So
382
00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:52.279
this was like they sat in a
bag, right, They had been sitting
383
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:55.880
in seawater in the boat, and
then they were sat in a bag for
384
00:25:55.960 --> 00:26:00.240
almost two months and then the person
looked at them. So the pliers were
385
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:03.880
definitely rusty. They were hard to
get open, but we don't know if
386
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:06.880
that rust got worse over the course
of those two months or not. And
387
00:26:06.920 --> 00:26:11.440
the hares being cut in half,
they think it just probably happened, you
388
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:15.200
know, while it was sitting in
the evidence. No other forensic evidence was
389
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:18.839
found in the boat. No,
okay, I just wanted to confirm that,
390
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:22.640
and that is by forensic event.
You mean there was no DNA but
391
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:27.359
exactly we have one hair. Yeah. The only other thing I read about
392
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:32.519
that was found was some concrete.
So there's the whole thing with the concrete
393
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:33.799
anchors, right, Scott, We're
going to get into that. Yeah,
394
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:37.920
yeah, we can talk about that
later. But that's not forensic evidence,
395
00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:41.279
you're right. So we're still on
Christmas. In the couple of days after.
396
00:26:42.079 --> 00:26:48.240
Scott is refusing any interviews at this
point, but he was interviewed again
397
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:56.440
by the police for several hours and
they noted a lot of inconsistencies. But
398
00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:02.480
if your story is spot on every
time you tell it, that's also suspicious.
399
00:27:02.480 --> 00:27:06.440
So it's very tricky. You mentioned
this, But search warns were issued
400
00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:10.759
for Scott's warehouse, boat, truck, and home. I believe it was
401
00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:15.000
the twenty seventh when they had done
our cursory search on Christmas Eve and they
402
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:18.319
took a lot of photos. But
they have electricity right at the shop.
403
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:21.960
We didn't mention that. Yeah,
let me just talk about the house real
404
00:27:22.039 --> 00:27:23.079
quick, but they did, do
you know, they took a lot of
405
00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:26.240
photos, but they didn't do like
a thorough search. But on the twenty
406
00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:30.400
seventh they rolled up their sleeves and
we are going to get in here and
407
00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:36.480
we are going to find some forensic
evidence. And they didn't. But yeah,
408
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:38.160
do you want to talk about Yeah, So they went to his shop
409
00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:41.279
on the twenty fourth in that evening
and they got there and Scott said,
410
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:45.960
well, there's no electricity, so
you have to use your flashlights or whatever,
411
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:49.960
and so they basically they rolled up
the door to the warehouse part of
412
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:55.079
the shop and shined their headlights in
and they used their flashlights and they never
413
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.319
really thought to try a light switch
or anything like that, and when they
414
00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:02.640
came back a couple days later with
search war they found that there was there
415
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:06.119
was light and it worked fine.
So that was a little bit weird,
416
00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:10.319
but it was weird. Yeah,
But I think he was just really belligerent
417
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:14.160
and it was just pissed because I
think they were treating him like a suspect
418
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:17.720
and he was mad, but they
had every reason to treat him like a
419
00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:23.279
suspect. The house so two small
spots of blood they thought they had it
420
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:26.200
found. I think it was on
a door door frame. They're like,
421
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:30.160
oh, I think that's blood.
It wasn't. Four computers and laptops were
422
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:37.720
taken. One was used solely for
Scott's porn bookmarks. Some of the things
423
00:28:37.759 --> 00:28:44.680
he had bookmarked were beast reality and
bondage websites. Some disturbing videos included one
424
00:28:44.720 --> 00:28:49.000
called raping the Teacher and Lazy he
was a teachacher and the other one was
425
00:28:49.119 --> 00:28:55.400
the wife Confesses. And it wasn't
for a while. I think some people
426
00:28:55.480 --> 00:29:00.920
reported like on Christmas Day Scott upgraded
his porn package. That actually wasn't for
427
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:03.839
a couple of weeks. Yeah.
Anne Bird, Scott's sister, actually wrote
428
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:07.559
about that. It was actually the
day of Anne's sons christening, which was
429
00:29:07.680 --> 00:29:12.279
January third. Scott came to the
christening and then he called his cable provider
430
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:15.119
shortly after that, so it was
okay, it was sooner than I thought.
431
00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:18.359
Yeah, it was about a little
over a week after. Well then
432
00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:22.319
I'm not sure what that first upgrade
might have been, but that might have
433
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.480
been like the Playboy channel. But
then he did call back and another more
434
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:32.400
time passes a week or two,
and he upgraded to like the really hardcore
435
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:36.079
stuff. I mean, I don't
Yeah, yeah, we didn't talk much
436
00:29:36.079 --> 00:29:41.960
about Scott's office slash warehouse. He
spent a lot of time there and I
437
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:45.400
believe he was the only one with
a key, and so part of it
438
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:51.359
was an office and part of it
was a warehouse, right, And he
439
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:52.799
had you know, like his computer
and stuff set up, and the other
440
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:56.759
part he just had a lot of
bags of fertilized. It was very cluttered,
441
00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:00.680
right, it was very cluttered,
and it was tight and well,
442
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:04.519
Lacey, and this is what we
were going to talk about with like did
443
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:10.599
Lacey know about the boat? Right? And a woman who worked at an
444
00:30:10.640 --> 00:30:15.160
adjacent warehouse said, and she wasn't
sure about the date for some reason.
445
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:18.240
She said it was either the twentieth
or the twenty third, which those were
446
00:30:18.440 --> 00:30:22.079
kind of a little bit before.
Yeah, that Lacey had asked to use
447
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:27.680
the restroom and her warehouse because there
was too many palletts stacked up in front
448
00:30:27.680 --> 00:30:33.039
of the restroom, right, and
Scott's warehouse. So the woman had seen
449
00:30:33.160 --> 00:30:36.920
Lacey, and at that point Scott
had the boat, right, So that's
450
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:40.559
why I think that Lacey knew about
the boat. Also, Scott paid for
451
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:44.480
the boat out of with a check, and so Lacey would have known about
452
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:47.359
it. That's a good point in
that. But just keep in mind the
453
00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:51.200
warehouse there were two separate rooms,
right, and there were each room had
454
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:53.079
its own entrance. So there was
his office, which had a door into
455
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.559
the office, and then there was
the bigger warehouse, which had like a
456
00:30:56.039 --> 00:31:00.480
garage door type of thing. So
we don't know if Lacey just went into
457
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:03.640
his office to see closed I didn't
know it was closed off. Yeah it
458
00:31:03.759 --> 00:31:06.920
is. Yeah, I still think
that she's I mean, I think that
459
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:11.039
she still would have seen it.
It's possible that she didn't. He wouldn't
460
00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:14.240
have been trying to hide it.
I don't think. Yeah, we don't
461
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:21.519
know investigators found what they thought were
four circular impressions where cement had been poured.
462
00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:26.680
I believe it was on the trailer
that the boat was on right,
463
00:31:27.799 --> 00:31:33.759
and Scott claimed only have one anchor. Right. The anchor was like a
464
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:37.119
he poured concrete into a bucket.
I think it was a home depot bucket.
465
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:40.519
I'm not sure it was just a
Yeah, it was a bucket and
466
00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:44.720
it had like a piece of metal
sticking out of it where you could tie
467
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:47.000
a rope to or whatever. And
he yeah, you're right, he said
468
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:49.880
he made only one anchor, but
police said they it felt like there were
469
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:55.279
impressions for four or five, which
is pretty weak evidence. Yeah, it
470
00:31:55.400 --> 00:32:00.000
is, but it comes back later. He could have bought an ankor,
471
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:04.200
Like I think an anchor is thirty
dollars. You know what at that time
472
00:32:04.359 --> 00:32:07.559
for his the boat that he needed. The person that sold him the boat
473
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:08.880
for some reason was like, oh, I'm going to keep the anchor.
474
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:12.480
Yeah, So Scott was like,
oh, you know, it's just a
475
00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:15.319
lot cheaper to buy a bag of
cement or two than to buy an anchor,
476
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:20.759
which to me that seems like not
that great of a money. But
477
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:23.880
I think give us something a lot
of people do. Yeah, but I
478
00:32:23.960 --> 00:32:28.000
heard that it is harder to do. Scott claimed that he had to make
479
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:32.359
multiple anchors mixing cement. I was
some I have never mixed cement. Well,
480
00:32:32.400 --> 00:32:36.599
actually I have because we've made you
like footprints or something for Father's Day.
481
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:38.519
But is it hard to mix cement? No, no, it's not.
482
00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:43.759
It's just like fifty to fifty.
Yeah, okay. Well, allegedly
483
00:32:45.079 --> 00:32:49.039
he claimed that he had to throw
a couple away and there was the whole
484
00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:52.759
issue with the cement leftover cement,
and then he yeah, he said he
485
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:57.480
had left over cement and he poured
it by the side of his driveway,
486
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:00.279
and a lot of people point to
that, saying, see, he only
487
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:01.319
made one anchor and then he used
the rest of it. And that's what
488
00:33:01.400 --> 00:33:04.960
I I for years, that's what
I thought. Yes, but there was
489
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:08.599
an expert that testified at the trial
that it was not the same type of
490
00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:14.960
concrete as was used to make the
anchor. Yes, So I mean,
491
00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:16.799
you know, where did the other
anchors go? And we'll talk about it
492
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:21.799
more in a little bit, because
I do. I did not. I
493
00:33:21.960 --> 00:33:24.279
thought that there was one anchor,
but now I think that there were more
494
00:33:24.359 --> 00:33:28.920
anchors. Yes. And one other
thing about this is on the inside of
495
00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:31.119
the boat, there's like the what's
called the rib lines, which is basically
496
00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:35.240
like along the side of the boat. There's a little a little part of
497
00:33:35.319 --> 00:33:38.880
the boat that kind of sticks out
like a little ridge. And investigators saw
498
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:44.839
cement particles along those rib lines of
the boat. And the only thing they
499
00:33:44.839 --> 00:33:49.200
could think of is why would that
be there unless, like if those anchors
500
00:33:49.240 --> 00:33:52.680
were attached to Lacy's body and he
pushed her body over the edge, those
501
00:33:52.839 --> 00:33:57.160
anchors would have like scraped up against
the rib lines, and that would explain
502
00:33:57.240 --> 00:34:00.119
why they were there. True,
we are going to take a break and
503
00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:09.760
we will be right back. One
other thing I wanted to mention about the
504
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:15.239
search is that a sexual assault counselor
came forward and said that she had counseled
505
00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:22.599
a confidential victim of sexual assault two
weeks prior to Lacey's disappearance. The person
506
00:34:22.679 --> 00:34:25.039
said that she had been lured into
a brown van by her ex girlfriend,
507
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:30.119
and while in the van, two
men and two women raped her and a
508
00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:35.440
satanic ritual was conducted. The victim
said that the group was living at the
509
00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:39.519
Woodward Reservoir. She also said that
the group mentioned a Christmas Day death and
510
00:34:39.639 --> 00:34:44.639
that she would read about it in
the papers. So news broke about this
511
00:34:44.719 --> 00:34:49.599
story and it became a big deal
because again people love a people satanic stuff.
512
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:53.880
Yeah, and Mark Garrigos, who
was Scott's attorney by this point,
513
00:34:54.079 --> 00:34:58.440
he offered a reward trying to get
to the van before the police did,
514
00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:01.519
because he felt like the police wouldn't
do their job and find the evidence.
515
00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:07.079
The police ultimately did locate the van, They interviewed the four occupants, they
516
00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:09.880
searched the van. They felt like
there was nothing of significance in the van
517
00:35:09.960 --> 00:35:15.599
that they found, and then eventually
they got rid of They had the van
518
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:16.800
for a while and they decided to
get rid of it. It wasn't worth
519
00:35:16.840 --> 00:35:22.639
anything. Mark Garrigos bought the van
from the police, but we don't know
520
00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:25.280
what happened to it after that.
He never introduced anything about it at the
521
00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:30.000
trial or anything, So I think
it was kind of a red herring.
522
00:35:30.239 --> 00:35:31.920
But again it was part of the
story. It was a big, big
523
00:35:32.280 --> 00:35:37.039
news at the time. Mark Garraghos, there's there. We'll talk about him
524
00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:39.880
more with their Yeah, that's that's
an interesting man. Did you come across
525
00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:45.159
Evelyn Hernandez and your research don't recall
that name, Okay, on the morning
526
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:51.320
of May first, two thousand and
two, So this is six six months
527
00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:55.079
before. Yeah, yeah, twenty
four year old single mom, Evelyn Hernandez,
528
00:35:55.519 --> 00:35:59.719
nine months pregnant with her second child. She has a five year old
529
00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:04.800
son, and she went missing very
similar and she was found and then San
530
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:09.639
Francisco Bay. So a lot of
people pointed to Evelyn's disappearance. She was
531
00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:15.800
likely murdered by her the man she
was having an affair with, Hermann Aguilar,
532
00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:21.840
who was a thirty six year old
part time limo driver and United Airlines
533
00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:28.000
Mechanicay. Evelyn's five year old son
also went missing and her partial remains were
534
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:31.920
found in the bay, but little
Alex was never found and no one has
535
00:36:32.000 --> 00:36:37.320
ever been convicted of any crime.
Wow, that's super sad. I am
536
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:39.400
curious about this case, and it
just goes to show you, like,
537
00:36:40.000 --> 00:36:45.039
is Evelyn's life worth less than Lacy
Peterson's life? No, Yeah, we've
538
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:46.960
never heard about that story, And
yeah, I would kind of like to
539
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:52.079
dive into that one a little,
a little deeper. But it's heartbreaking how
540
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:53.159
some you know, we talk about
this all the time. How some cases
541
00:36:53.280 --> 00:36:58.119
get so much coverage and others don't. Yeah, but it's also amazing in
542
00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:01.320
this case, just how many things
there are, how many stories came out
543
00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:05.039
that are like, is it related? Is it not related? That you
544
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:07.000
know, the satanic thing, all
the people who say that they saw her.
545
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:12.119
It's just it's so complicated when you
have all these things coming into play.
546
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:15.960
There were other pregnant women that also
went missing in that area, and
547
00:37:16.079 --> 00:37:20.199
there was another there was a pregnant
woman that lived in the neighborhood that had
548
00:37:20.239 --> 00:37:24.320
a Golden Retriever named Mackenzie. She
had her baby I think in October,
549
00:37:24.440 --> 00:37:28.440
so she wasn't pregnant anymore by that
time. But just the fact that there
550
00:37:28.519 --> 00:37:30.599
was another woman in the neighborhood who
looked a lot, likely with a golden
551
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:36.760
retriever of the same name. Yeah. Yeah. Homicide is the leading cause
552
00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:42.920
of death for pregnant women, and
it's usually due to their partners or husbands.
553
00:37:43.039 --> 00:37:47.000
Yeah, it's shocking, but I
guess not surprising. That brings us
554
00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:52.239
to December thirtieth, which I'm going
to call Amber Friday. Amberfry called the
555
00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:59.159
Lacy Peterson tip Line on December thirtieth. After talking, she was telling one
556
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:01.440
of her friends about She's like,
I met this guy. He's great,
557
00:38:01.960 --> 00:38:05.639
and her friend was like, oh, let's google him, and then they
558
00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:08.199
found they found Scott Peterson, and
Amber was really confused. She was like,
559
00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:13.800
is that mice Scott Peterson? And
so she called the tip line and
560
00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:16.400
she was like trying to She was
like, what is Scott's birth date?
561
00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:21.719
And they told her and then she
was like, oh god, oh jeez.
562
00:38:22.519 --> 00:38:24.360
They'd been seeing each other for just
too over a month. Their first
563
00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:30.599
date was November twentieth, two thousand
and two. Scott initially told Amber that
564
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:34.239
he was single and he'd never been
married, like, I've never even come
565
00:38:34.360 --> 00:38:37.679
close to being married, Amber,
but when he arrived at her house on
566
00:38:37.760 --> 00:38:42.920
December ninth for a date, he
admitted he lied to her after remember her
567
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:45.840
friend Sean, who introduced them.
Sean put pressure on him, and Scott
568
00:38:45.880 --> 00:38:52.280
told Amber he'd had a wife but
he'd lost her and he was sad because
569
00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:55.239
this would be his first Christmas without
her. And Amber was like, oh
570
00:38:55.360 --> 00:39:00.239
my gosh, Scott, I can
understand why you wouldn't have told me that.
571
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:05.639
It's just so traumatic. So she
she forgave him, police high tailed
572
00:39:05.719 --> 00:39:09.280
it to Madera to meet with Amber
once they you know, actually, l
573
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:15.559
Brokini tells the story like he was
actually standing behind the person that was talking
574
00:39:15.599 --> 00:39:17.440
to Amber and he saw like the
notes she was taking. He was like,
575
00:39:17.800 --> 00:39:21.880
uh, bev, give me the
phone, let me talk to her.
576
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:27.159
He was very excited because they kept
saying, like Scott is he doesn't
577
00:39:27.199 --> 00:39:30.960
have a pimple, He's never had
a speeding ticket, you know, he's
578
00:39:30.199 --> 00:39:32.519
so they were really excited to find
out about it. I mean, and
579
00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:38.159
you know, to el Brokini's defense, I don't think he comes off swimmingly
580
00:39:38.480 --> 00:39:42.719
in this whole thing. Did you
have an impression of him same? I
581
00:39:42.760 --> 00:39:45.039
mean, I think he was a
good cop, but I think he'd made
582
00:39:45.239 --> 00:39:47.480
some mistakes. He was a little
maybe rush to judgment a little bit.
583
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:51.440
Yeah. I mean I'm not saying
he's wrong, but I think that,
584
00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:55.679
yeah, he definitely could have maybe
explored some other avenues. But anyway,
585
00:39:55.760 --> 00:40:00.960
so he was very excited. He
went to meet with Amber and Sean was
586
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:05.840
there too. Amber was twenty seven
at the time, same age as Lacey.
587
00:40:06.679 --> 00:40:08.800
She was tall and pretty with blonde
hair, and she pulled out a
588
00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:15.679
picture of her and Scott informal wear
from the December fourteenth Christmas party that they
589
00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:20.239
had attended together. And you've probably
seen the picture. She's sitting on his
590
00:40:20.400 --> 00:40:25.159
lap and he has the biggest,
slimiest grin on his face. The picture
591
00:40:25.280 --> 00:40:30.519
was probably taken at the same time
where Lacey attended the Christmas party by herself,
592
00:40:30.360 --> 00:40:32.639
and we talked about this, But
you've seen the picture of Lacey.
593
00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:39.199
She just looked so so sweet in
her shiny red material maternity pantsuit, smiling
594
00:40:39.239 --> 00:40:44.599
broadly with her hands folded protectively on
her belly. She had also saved some
595
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:49.920
Amber had saved, like the wine
corks from the bottles of wine that Scott
596
00:40:49.960 --> 00:40:53.400
had brought her, and she sharpened
them with their consumption date. Although they
597
00:40:53.440 --> 00:40:59.679
hadn't seen each other. On Christmas, Scott sent Amber a planetarium that projected
598
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:04.599
image of stars onto the ceiling.
Amber told detectives about their first date.
599
00:41:05.480 --> 00:41:09.199
Scott had pulled out all of the
stops to impress Amber. They met and
600
00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:12.960
they were just going to have drinks
and then he was like, hey,
601
00:41:13.199 --> 00:41:16.360
will you would you just I'm gross, I've been traveling all day. Let's
602
00:41:16.400 --> 00:41:19.880
just go up to my hotel room
real quick and I can take a shower,
603
00:41:20.280 --> 00:41:24.480
I'll feel more comfortable. And she
was like whookie. And he had
604
00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:31.920
champagne and he put strawberries in the
glasses. Romantic and he had I believe
605
00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:37.599
I could be wrong, but I
think he had three dozen roses. And
606
00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:44.159
so yeah, then they went to
this Japanese restaurant. Scott ordered, you
607
00:41:44.199 --> 00:41:47.960
know, more drinks and lots of
food. Somehow he finaggled a private room
608
00:41:49.119 --> 00:41:54.519
at the restaurant, and he entertained
Amber with stories of his world travels Africa
609
00:41:54.679 --> 00:41:59.400
and Ireland and Spain. He told
Amber, Hey, I'm you know,
610
00:41:59.480 --> 00:42:01.960
I'm a worldly guy. I can't
just stay in California for the holidays.
611
00:42:02.840 --> 00:42:06.280
I'm going to go to Alaska,
and which was kind of a weird.
612
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:10.559
I'm going to Alaska and then Paris. Amber had a daughter who was almost
613
00:42:10.679 --> 00:42:15.000
two. And I have to say
Ambers very she's twenty seven. Not the
614
00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:19.280
twenty seven year olds aren't smart.
But Amber just strikes me as maybe a
615
00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:22.199
little naive. Yeah, that seems
like she just fell like had over heels,
616
00:42:22.280 --> 00:42:28.039
like immediately, well love he was
love bombing her. Yeah. Yeah,
617
00:42:28.039 --> 00:42:30.159
you know, when you show your
is it not even showing your best
618
00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:35.679
self? Like this false self and
just I mean, no man is giving
619
00:42:35.760 --> 00:42:38.400
you roses, you know, like
all the time. It's just unrealistic,
620
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:45.000
unsustainable. Yeah. So Amber's daughter
was almost two, and that didn't seem
621
00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:49.480
to dissuade Scott. He was like, oh, I love kids. They're
622
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:52.119
still on their first eight. They
went to after the they closed the Japanese
623
00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:54.920
restaurant, and there was a karaoke
bar next door. So they went to
624
00:42:54.960 --> 00:43:00.480
the karaoke bar, and I believe
that they saying a duet together. They
625
00:43:00.599 --> 00:43:05.719
sing Islands in the Stream, Oh
Lovely, it's a romantic tune. They
626
00:43:05.800 --> 00:43:08.480
went back to Scott's hotel room and
they had sex for the first time,
627
00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:16.320
and I believe Sean stayed with Amber's
daughter. Amber told Scott her birthday was
628
00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:21.320
February tenth, and February tenth,
if you remember, was Lacey's due date
629
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:24.840
on their second date. So,
you know, Scott, you kind of
630
00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:29.400
have to wonder, like, how
is this married man away from home so
631
00:43:29.519 --> 00:43:31.119
much? Yeah, I mean he
was kind of a traveling salesman. His
632
00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:37.639
tritory was like several states. I
think he went to California and Arizona and
633
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:42.199
yeah, so he did travel for
his work. But I think he just
634
00:43:42.280 --> 00:43:45.880
would tell Lacey, yeah, I'm
just I'm traveling. And the second date,
635
00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:51.719
Scott met Amber's daughter, which is
pretty soon. They spent the afternoon
636
00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:55.519
together and Scott had bought gifts for
both of them and made them dinner.
637
00:43:57.119 --> 00:44:01.039
So if you're a single a single
mom like Amber, you're tired. I'm
638
00:44:01.199 --> 00:44:06.280
really tired. And she worked as
a massage therapist. Her work's pretty demanding.
639
00:44:06.400 --> 00:44:09.199
I think she had just gotten her
certification and was just starting her own
640
00:44:09.239 --> 00:44:15.119
business, and so, you know, you she's very busy. She's tired,
641
00:44:15.440 --> 00:44:20.400
and here comes Scott. I'm gonna
make you dinner. I'm gonna write
642
00:44:20.400 --> 00:44:22.000
gifts for you and your daughter.
I don't mind that you have because some
643
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:24.679
guys would be like, oh you
have a you have a kid, But
644
00:44:24.760 --> 00:44:28.159
Scott was like I love no,
I love kids, and you know,
645
00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:31.199
he would bring your little gifts.
So Amber is just thinking that she has
646
00:44:31.320 --> 00:44:36.880
hit the lottery with this guy.
Yeah. Uh. And Scott. On
647
00:44:36.920 --> 00:44:38.400
the second date, Amber was like, oh, I have to go pick
648
00:44:38.480 --> 00:44:43.119
up my daughter from from daycare,
and Scott was like, I'll go with
649
00:44:43.239 --> 00:44:45.320
you. And so he met,
you know, he met her little girl.
650
00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:49.840
Second date, he helped pick her
up. By the third date,
651
00:44:50.760 --> 00:44:53.719
Amber asked Scott to pick pick up
her daughter from school. That is just
652
00:44:53.880 --> 00:44:57.719
crazy. Every mom that listening is
just like red flat red flag. I
653
00:44:57.800 --> 00:45:00.400
know that one just blows my mind. And I think Amber was just really
654
00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:05.719
just thought he was a good guy
and she was happy to have someone that
655
00:45:05.880 --> 00:45:13.239
cared about her daughter. Yeah,
and Scott was he had just so banana.
656
00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:16.559
He picked up the baby from school
and then he makes dinner again.
657
00:45:17.000 --> 00:45:20.960
Amber comes home and she's like,
oh my gosh, I have a family.
658
00:45:21.159 --> 00:45:23.880
And the three of them went that
night and picked out a Christmas tree
659
00:45:23.920 --> 00:45:28.480
together. Oh my god. Now, on the night of the formal Christmas
660
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:31.239
party, Scott and Amber stayed in
a hotel and she told him she wasn't
661
00:45:31.320 --> 00:45:37.119
using birth control. In a rare
moment of honesty, Scott told Amber that
662
00:45:37.400 --> 00:45:39.880
he didn't want to have any more
children, like he said, your daughter
663
00:45:40.039 --> 00:45:44.360
is enough for me. And he
told her he was thinking about getting out
664
00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:49.400
of a sectomy. And Amber was
a little like, oh, she was
665
00:45:49.440 --> 00:45:53.880
surprised by that. So what do
you think of their whirlwind relationship. It's
666
00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:59.440
just so fast and it's so like
Amber was like just so committed. I
667
00:45:59.519 --> 00:46:02.480
mean, you're right this Knight in
Shining Armor is coming and buying her all
668
00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:06.199
these things and treating her really well. I can sort of understand that,
669
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:10.119
but obviously letting him pick up her
daughter as just mind boggling to me.
670
00:46:10.719 --> 00:46:15.079
But we also see again how Scott
is like mirroring the person he's with,
671
00:46:15.400 --> 00:46:19.480
Right, He's trying to be the
perfect man for her and exactly what she
672
00:46:19.519 --> 00:46:22.320
would want in a man. And
I think also she was pretty religious,
673
00:46:22.400 --> 00:46:27.440
and he acted like he was also
very religious, which I don't think he
674
00:46:27.559 --> 00:46:30.719
really was. So yeah, we
just see that kind of behavior again from
675
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:36.480
him. I think Scott liked to
be the person people needed him to be,
676
00:46:36.960 --> 00:46:40.079
yep, And he was just trying
so hard to be this perfect,
677
00:46:40.239 --> 00:46:45.920
perfect guy because he'd like to see
that image of himself reflected back to himself.
678
00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:49.519
Right, he did want to be
a Knight in Shining Armor. Yeah,
679
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:53.679
Amber didn't. So they hadn't seen
each other a ton, but I
680
00:46:53.719 --> 00:46:57.400
mean, I think they've probably seen
each other maybe six or seven times in
681
00:46:57.559 --> 00:47:00.880
person, that might maybe five,
I'm not sure how many. But they
682
00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:04.760
didn't see each other a ton because
you know, she's ninety minutes away,
683
00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:08.840
he's got another wife and yeah,
home Yeah, they had talked almost every
684
00:47:08.880 --> 00:47:13.440
day on the phone, but on
Christmas Eve he didn't talk to her because
685
00:47:13.440 --> 00:47:15.760
he had a lot of things to
do, but not picking up a fruit
686
00:47:15.840 --> 00:47:22.199
basket. His wife's grandfather. He
called Amber twice on Christmas, which is
687
00:47:22.320 --> 00:47:29.039
so gross. Yeah, his wife
is missing and he calls Amber twice.
688
00:47:30.119 --> 00:47:32.320
Okay. So December thirtieth was the
day she went to the police. The
689
00:47:32.360 --> 00:47:37.599
next day, New Year's Eve,
that's when the horrible, awkward Paris phone
690
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:42.880
call happens, and the police,
like Alborkini, went to the radio shack
691
00:47:43.280 --> 00:47:46.639
and bought a recording device for Amber's
phone, and Amber was on board and
692
00:47:46.760 --> 00:47:51.960
she was like, okay, I
will I will record all of my conversations
693
00:47:52.000 --> 00:47:54.960
with Scott. So from New Year's
evon, all of her phone call well
694
00:47:55.000 --> 00:47:59.360
not all of them, her phone
calls with Scott were recorded, and he
695
00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:02.360
asked her basically not to tell him
that she knew about him, right to
696
00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:07.719
basically just play act along like nothing
was different. More than a thousand people
697
00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:14.559
had gathered at East La Looma Park
for a candlelight vigil for Lacey, and
698
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:17.880
both the Peterson and roach Of families
were there and they spoke to the crowd,
699
00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:22.239
like thanking them and encouraging them to
continue to look for Lacey. But
700
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:27.920
Scott hung back, And one of
the reasons he probably hung back was he
701
00:48:29.239 --> 00:48:31.840
he thought that he was in the
clear with Amber. She didn't know anything
702
00:48:31.840 --> 00:48:36.639
about Lacey, and so he didn't
want to be seen on camera or heard
703
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:39.360
because he was trying to, you
know, save his image for Amber.
704
00:48:40.719 --> 00:48:45.119
So, you know, Scott has
been critiqued a lot for his his kind
705
00:48:45.159 --> 00:48:49.960
of his demeanor behavior. Well,
yeah, yeah, a lot of things.
706
00:48:50.199 --> 00:48:53.239
But his behavior was suspicious, and
I think there's a good reason for
707
00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:55.559
that. But part of it,
I wonder is that you know, he
708
00:48:57.800 --> 00:49:00.480
at this point, he doesn't the
police don't know that he is having an
709
00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:02.960
affair, right, and so that's
part of the reason why he might have
710
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:06.519
been acting. Yeah, he was
trying to cover up an affair for exactly.
711
00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:08.679
Do you want to do a little
true crime theater? Oh, I'm
712
00:49:08.679 --> 00:49:12.119
always up for some true crime theater. That way, we don't have to
713
00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:15.679
listen to the phone call because I've
heard it so many times, but I
714
00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:21.400
do think it's important. Yeah,
and if listeners, you can just pass
715
00:49:21.440 --> 00:49:24.119
forward. So this is the call
that Scott made to Amber. On New
716
00:49:24.199 --> 00:49:29.400
Year's Eve when he told her he
was in Paris. Right, this was
717
00:49:29.559 --> 00:49:31.559
right after the vigil, yes,
okay, well, no during the vigil,
718
00:49:31.679 --> 00:49:35.679
during the vigil, okay, all
right, do you want to be
719
00:49:36.559 --> 00:49:42.719
scot Okay, gotcha. Are you
having a good time? Amber? Hey,
720
00:49:42.840 --> 00:49:45.719
Happy New Year's, Happy New Year. I wanted to call you.
721
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:49.880
Thank you, Amber. Are you
there. I'm here, Amber, I
722
00:49:50.000 --> 00:49:52.400
wish you could hear me. I'm
on the I think that you're there.
723
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:57.559
I'm near the Eiffel Tower and the
New Year't celebration is unreal. The crowd
724
00:49:57.679 --> 00:50:01.159
is huge. Crowd's huge. Amber. Yeah, I'm here, Amber.
725
00:50:01.320 --> 00:50:04.440
If you're there, I can't hear
you right now, but I'll call you
726
00:50:04.519 --> 00:50:08.800
on your New Year's Okay. So
that just that was only a brief snippet
727
00:50:08.840 --> 00:50:13.920
of the of the call, but
just shows you that he's a freaking psychopath.
728
00:50:14.119 --> 00:50:19.639
Because he's in modesto at his wife's
candlelight vigilant. He's calling Amber,
729
00:50:19.719 --> 00:50:22.320
pretending to be in Paris. And
he went on in great detail like he's
730
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:27.679
with you know, Pierre, and
yeah he had all these all these friends
731
00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:30.199
with Yeah, he had all these
details. That's the thing. It just
732
00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:35.079
blows my mind. He was great, great liar, he was. Yeah,
733
00:50:35.159 --> 00:50:38.159
he was very good at it.
On January sixth, Scott finally tells
734
00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:44.440
Amber he's been lying to her about
everything, not really everything, but he
735
00:50:44.559 --> 00:50:49.000
told her that he was married and
his wife went missing and he hadn't really
736
00:50:49.079 --> 00:50:52.800
been in traveling. He'd been in
Modesto the whole time. Okay, So
737
00:50:52.880 --> 00:50:58.480
we're going to do another reenactment here
of the conversation that Scott had with Amber
738
00:50:58.719 --> 00:51:01.400
when she grills him, right,
and this is just a little part of
739
00:51:01.440 --> 00:51:06.519
the conversation. Again, I will
get into the character of Scott Peterson.
740
00:51:06.679 --> 00:51:10.679
Okay, the girl I'm married to, her name is Lacey, uh huh.
741
00:51:12.119 --> 00:51:15.039
For the past two weeks, I've
been in Modesta with her family and
742
00:51:15.159 --> 00:51:19.800
mine searching for her. Okay,
she just disappeared and no one knows.
743
00:51:21.239 --> 00:51:25.840
Okay now where she's been, Scott, and I can't tell you more because
744
00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:30.800
I need you to be protected from
the media and your daughter. Okay,
745
00:51:31.639 --> 00:51:36.280
Okay, they are amazing, Scott. Are you are you listening? I
746
00:51:36.400 --> 00:51:39.599
am. You came to me earlier
in December and you told me that you
747
00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:45.800
lost your wife. What was that
about. She she's alive. Yeah,
748
00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:49.920
And I deserve to understand an explanation
of why you told me you lost your
749
00:51:49.960 --> 00:51:53.360
wife and this was the first holidays
you spend without her. That was December
750
00:51:53.519 --> 00:51:57.360
ninth, and you told me this, and now all of a sudden,
751
00:51:57.400 --> 00:52:00.559
your wife's missing. Are you kidding
me? Did you hear me? I
752
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:05.840
did. I don't know what to
say to you. I think an explanation
753
00:52:06.239 --> 00:52:09.440
would be a start. I know
you deserve an explanation, Yes I do.
754
00:52:09.719 --> 00:52:13.480
I do, and I want to
give you one. I have listening.
755
00:52:13.599 --> 00:52:17.599
I can't now, I mean,
you don't understand. So the conversation
756
00:52:17.760 --> 00:52:22.360
went on and Scott was just being
shady as heck, and he wouldn't tell.
757
00:52:22.800 --> 00:52:25.440
He kept saying, I can't tell
you the whole story. I can't
758
00:52:25.440 --> 00:52:31.159
tell the whole story. And then
he implied that Connor might not be his.
759
00:52:31.480 --> 00:52:37.440
He never said that, but he
just kind of kept on implying that
760
00:52:37.639 --> 00:52:39.880
Lacey may have cheated on him and
she didn't know the whole story, and
761
00:52:40.440 --> 00:52:45.119
it was it was pretty disgusting.
Yeah. The days started to run together,
762
00:52:45.280 --> 00:52:50.519
and Scott would stop by the Lazy
Command Center for a little while on
763
00:52:50.679 --> 00:52:55.639
most days, and he drove to
the Berkeley Marina on several occasions, police
764
00:52:55.679 --> 00:53:01.039
had put a locator on both his
and Lacey's vehicles, and Scott took to
765
00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:06.880
kind of driving like a madman sometimes
because he kind of knew. I think
766
00:53:06.880 --> 00:53:09.320
he knew he was being tailed,
and he was trying to evade police as
767
00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:15.239
much as possible. And some days
he just was messing with them and he
768
00:53:15.360 --> 00:53:22.440
rented cars and didn't like. He
stopped somewhere one time and he knew Al
769
00:53:22.679 --> 00:53:23.760
was there, El Borkini was there, and he was like, Hey,
770
00:53:23.840 --> 00:53:27.760
Al, what are you doing here? And he was just kind of playing
771
00:53:27.840 --> 00:53:32.880
games with them. On January twenty
fourth, this whole thing takes a big
772
00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:39.199
turn when Amber went public with a
press conference. She only spoke for about
773
00:53:39.280 --> 00:53:44.239
thirty seconds and she I'm going to
just read it to you, okay.
774
00:53:44.360 --> 00:53:47.239
First of all, I met Scott
Peterson on November twentieth, two thousand and
775
00:53:47.280 --> 00:53:52.159
two. I was introduced to him. I was told he was unmarried.
776
00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:55.679
Scott told me he was not married. We did have a romantic relationship.
777
00:53:57.079 --> 00:54:01.559
When I discovered he was involved in
Lacy peterson dissipppearance case, I immediately contacted
778
00:54:01.599 --> 00:54:07.840
the Modesto Police Department. Although I
could have sold or sold the photos of
779
00:54:07.880 --> 00:54:10.159
Scott and I to the tabloids.
I know this was not the right thing
780
00:54:10.239 --> 00:54:15.320
to do. For fear of jeopardizing
the case or the police investigation, I
781
00:54:15.400 --> 00:54:20.199
will not comment further. I'm very
sorry for Lacey's family and the pain that
782
00:54:20.280 --> 00:54:23.079
this has caused them, and I
pray for her safe return as well.
783
00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:28.880
I would appreciate my friends and acquaintances
to refrain from talking about me to the
784
00:54:28.960 --> 00:54:34.079
media for profit or recognization. I
am a single mother of a twenty three
785
00:54:34.159 --> 00:54:37.440
year month old child, and I
ask you to respect my privacy. Thank
786
00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:45.920
you. After Amber's press conference,
Lazy's family believed like everything changed. They
787
00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:51.119
believe that Scott murdered Lacey. They
closed the call center and share in To
788
00:54:51.199 --> 00:54:53.559
her credit, she called Scott on
numerous occasions and she was like, I
789
00:54:53.639 --> 00:54:57.199
know what you did. I want
my daughter back. Where is she Tell
790
00:54:57.280 --> 00:55:01.239
me where she is? And she
was pretty relentless. But Amber continue to
791
00:55:01.320 --> 00:55:06.280
talk to Scott as much as five
times a day. Yeah, that press
792
00:55:06.320 --> 00:55:09.880
conference was just that was such a
huge moment in this whole case. I
793
00:55:09.960 --> 00:55:13.199
mean, I think it really was. I think it felt like everybody in
794
00:55:13.239 --> 00:55:16.159
the world was watching at that point, and Amber was so nervous, and
795
00:55:16.239 --> 00:55:19.840
to her credit, she didn't have
to do that, but she did,
796
00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:22.400
and I think she did the best
job that she could. Yeah, and
797
00:55:22.679 --> 00:55:27.679
you know, she was a young
single mom and she was scared. She
798
00:55:27.760 --> 00:55:30.760
said that she was having a pan
literally having a panic attack while she was
799
00:55:30.840 --> 00:55:35.760
speaking. Yeah. Now there was
a little bit of a there was a
800
00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:37.320
story about Amber I wanted to share. It's a little bit of a rabbit
801
00:55:37.400 --> 00:55:43.480
hole, but about whether she was
being completely upfront with the police or not
802
00:55:43.760 --> 00:55:47.239
during this whole process. There was
an article in Court TV that I read
803
00:55:49.800 --> 00:55:54.199
that basically it was based on confidential
sources within the Modesto police department. It
804
00:55:54.360 --> 00:56:00.719
indicates that police started to doubt Amber's
veracity. The article said that even though
805
00:56:00.760 --> 00:56:04.920
Amber had promised to record her conversations
with Scott, that she was sometimes calling
806
00:56:05.000 --> 00:56:08.199
him on the sly. The police
had a meeting on January thirteenth of two
807
00:56:08.239 --> 00:56:13.639
thousand and three to discuss what they
called the Amber problem, and they concluded
808
00:56:13.679 --> 00:56:19.280
that quote Amberfry is no longer telling
us the truth in this investigation. Police
809
00:56:19.280 --> 00:56:22.679
had been tapping her phone to make
sure that she was on the up and
810
00:56:22.800 --> 00:56:25.119
up, and they haven't said what
they heard on these calls, but the
811
00:56:25.239 --> 00:56:30.199
information they learned from listening in made
them doubt her credibility a detective set at
812
00:56:30.199 --> 00:56:35.199
the time, quote Amberfry still has
a desire to have Scott Peterson in her
813
00:56:35.239 --> 00:56:39.039
life. She may even lie or
conspire with him to withhold evidence. And
814
00:56:39.199 --> 00:56:45.840
another confidential report stated quote, I
suspect she may be disseminating information to Scott
815
00:56:45.880 --> 00:56:51.920
Peterson concerning what law enforcement knows about
this investigation. So just an interesting side
816
00:56:52.239 --> 00:56:54.000
note about Amber. I think a
lot of people look at her as kind
817
00:56:54.000 --> 00:56:59.400
of a hero who did the right
thing, but it's a little bit more
818
00:56:59.519 --> 00:57:04.480
questionable than that. What I cannot, for the life of me wrap my
819
00:57:04.559 --> 00:57:08.480
head around is after this press conference, she didn't need to keep talking to
820
00:57:08.519 --> 00:57:14.079
Scott, I don't think. But
she did for like a month after,
821
00:57:14.800 --> 00:57:19.440
and they talked many times a day
for long periods of time. I think
822
00:57:19.559 --> 00:57:23.920
she really was wrapped up in him. And you know, so maybe law
823
00:57:24.000 --> 00:57:28.800
enforcement was hoping that she would divulge
something or he would divulge something to Amber.
824
00:57:29.639 --> 00:57:31.880
But Scott's he's not dumb, and
he has to know at this point
825
00:57:32.159 --> 00:57:36.400
that her phones tapped. Yeah,
she had the press conference. I mean
826
00:57:36.480 --> 00:57:38.920
he would definitely know that. So
it does make you wonder, like what
827
00:57:39.079 --> 00:57:45.559
her motivation was in this whole thing
she did do. She was very brave,
828
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:47.440
though you have have to give her
predictor right there. Yeah. Sure,
829
00:57:49.599 --> 00:57:52.079
at this point Scott needs to do
some damage control. And this is
830
00:57:52.159 --> 00:57:58.920
when he starts doing media interviews,
which was a bad idea, the terrible
831
00:57:58.960 --> 00:58:02.000
idea. You wanted to play some
audio. I've got a few clips from
832
00:58:02.079 --> 00:58:06.400
when he was on with Diane Sawyer. So I've got a few of these,
833
00:58:06.519 --> 00:58:07.760
but I'll play one at a time. We can comment on him as
834
00:58:07.840 --> 00:58:12.920
we go, but I just want
to say to the look on his face,
835
00:58:13.079 --> 00:58:16.840
like the visual is so weird.
You can play the clips and then
836
00:58:16.840 --> 00:58:20.360
we can talk. Yeah, let's
start with the first one here. I
837
00:58:20.400 --> 00:58:23.360
think everybody sitting at home wants the
answer to the same question, did you
838
00:58:23.559 --> 00:58:30.239
murder your wife? No? No, I just thought and I had absolutely
839
00:58:30.239 --> 00:58:34.519
nothing to do with her disappearance,
and use the word murder and yeah,
840
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:43.000
I mean that is a possibility.
It's not one we're ready to accept.
841
00:58:43.039 --> 00:58:47.280
And it creeps in my mind late
at night and early in the morning and
842
00:58:47.480 --> 00:58:51.719
during the day. All we can
think about is the right resolution is to
843
00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:58.400
find her well. But as you
know, increasingly and the public, suspicion
844
00:58:58.440 --> 00:59:01.119
has turned on you. Yes,
did you ever hit her? Did you
845
00:59:01.199 --> 00:59:07.880
ever injure her? No? No? Oh god no. Violence towards women
846
00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:15.159
is unapproachable. It is the most
disgusting act to me, and I know
847
00:59:15.360 --> 00:59:22.639
that suspicion has turned to me,
and it's it's turned to me one because
848
00:59:22.719 --> 00:59:28.480
I'm her husband and that's a natural
thing. And I've heard all the statistics
849
00:59:28.559 --> 00:59:34.199
on all the news shows about that
being you know, someone that a husband,
850
00:59:34.280 --> 00:59:38.000
ex husband, a boyfriend, that
is statistically the one who would be
851
00:59:38.079 --> 00:59:47.599
responsible for her disappearance. And I'm
sorry, I've forgot your question. Did
852
00:59:47.639 --> 00:59:51.480
you ever hit her? Did you
ever injure? No? No? Never.
853
00:59:52.679 --> 00:59:55.960
I answered your question because the suspicion
that it's been turned to me,
854
00:59:57.920 --> 01:00:08.000
and it turned to me because of
the inappropriate romantic that I had with Amber
855
01:00:08.079 --> 01:00:15.559
Fry. So that's the first clip
hard to listen to, it's hard to
856
01:00:15.639 --> 01:00:19.840
listen to. He's he's a creep, Yeah, creep. Completely. Let
857
01:00:19.880 --> 01:00:23.519
me play the second one about Amber
Fry. Amber Fry came forward. I'm
858
01:00:23.519 --> 01:00:29.599
glad she did. You are definitely
well appropriate thing to do. And it
859
01:00:29.719 --> 01:00:37.280
really shows what a personal character she
is and it allows us to get back
860
01:00:37.360 --> 01:00:40.920
looking for Lacey. Did you tell
her that you were not married? I
861
01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:47.920
did? I did, and then
when Lacey disappeared, I called her and
862
01:00:49.000 --> 01:00:52.800
immediately. It wasn't immediately. It
was a couple of days after Lacy's disappearance.
863
01:00:52.599 --> 01:00:59.440
I telephoned her and told her the
truth, the truth that I was
864
01:00:59.599 --> 01:01:01.480
married, that Lacey disappeared. She
didn't know about it at that point,
865
01:01:02.400 --> 01:01:07.159
and then she contacted the police.
Lie. That was a lie. He
866
01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:09.960
did not call her a couple of
days after Lacey's disappearance to tell her the
867
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:15.400
truth. No, he didn't.
Got a lot of lies. Yeah,
868
01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:19.320
here's another one. Had you told
anyone? Did you tell police? Told
869
01:01:19.320 --> 01:01:24.719
the police immediately when that was the
first night we're together the police. I
870
01:01:24.840 --> 01:01:30.800
spent with the police. You told
them about her? Yeah? From fourth
871
01:01:30.039 --> 01:01:34.639
on? That was a lie.
He did not tell the police about Amperify
872
01:01:34.760 --> 01:01:38.519
early on. I've got a couple
more short clips. Did your wife find
873
01:01:38.559 --> 01:01:47.559
out about it? I told my
wife when early December. Did it cause
874
01:01:49.000 --> 01:01:57.599
a rupture in the marriage. It
was not a positive obviously, it's a
875
01:01:59.760 --> 01:02:09.119
yeah, inappropriate, but it was
not something that we weren't dealing with a
876
01:02:09.199 --> 01:02:15.840
lot of arguing. No, no, no, you know I can't say
877
01:02:15.960 --> 01:02:24.199
that that even you know, she
was okay with the idea, but it
878
01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:30.280
wasn't anything that would break us apart. There wasn't a lot of anger.
879
01:02:30.639 --> 01:02:37.480
No. Do you really expect people
to believe that an eight and a half
880
01:02:37.599 --> 01:02:45.800
multipregnant woman learns her husband has had
an affair and is sinkly and casual about
881
01:02:45.840 --> 01:02:52.519
it, accommodating, makes a peace
with it. Well, yeah, you
882
01:02:52.599 --> 01:03:05.239
don't know. No one knows our
relationship with us and that's at peace with
883
01:03:05.360 --> 01:03:15.000
it. I'm not happy about it. Why did you tell her it was
884
01:03:15.079 --> 01:03:21.440
the right thing? Tell me about
the state of your marriage? What?
885
01:03:21.920 --> 01:03:25.559
What kind of marriage was it?
God? I mean the first word that
886
01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:31.360
comes to mind is glorious. I
mean we took care of each other very
887
01:03:31.400 --> 01:03:40.119
well. She was amazing, She
was amazing, is amazing. Glorious.
888
01:03:42.440 --> 01:03:45.440
Oh man, those clips just make
me cringe described so much. No,
889
01:03:45.599 --> 01:03:50.960
don't it's okay, Oh yeah,
it's it's it's hard to listen to and
890
01:03:51.039 --> 01:03:52.639
it, like we said, it's
it's even harder to watch his face.
891
01:03:53.559 --> 01:03:58.360
Uh, he's smiling at times and
a couple of times there's like a little
892
01:03:58.519 --> 01:04:01.199
chuckle that comes out. It's like
it's nothing's funny. And the I think
893
01:04:01.199 --> 01:04:04.400
it was the first clip where she
says something about murder and he says,
894
01:04:04.440 --> 01:04:09.239
well, murder, and he like
smiles and chuckles. He's like, it's
895
01:04:09.400 --> 01:04:13.400
really it's really creepy. It's very
very uncomfortable. Yeah, just his whole
896
01:04:13.800 --> 01:04:17.360
demeanor and his tone of voice was
just seemed really inappropriate. I wanted to
897
01:04:17.440 --> 01:04:21.760
mention I don't know if you found
this, but so Scott's phone was obviously
898
01:04:21.840 --> 01:04:28.880
tapped, they had GPS's on his
vehicle vehicles, but sixty five friends,
899
01:04:29.320 --> 01:04:33.440
family members, and members of the
press also had their phones tapped, Like
900
01:04:33.840 --> 01:04:40.079
I believe Dane Sawyer, really,
Nancy Grace, Dan Abrams, all those
901
01:04:40.199 --> 01:04:43.880
big people at the times their phones
were also tapped. Really, I did
902
01:04:43.920 --> 01:04:45.960
not know. Yeah, and I
think once they found out about it,
903
01:04:46.000 --> 01:04:51.159
they didn't know initial they were pretty
pissedl Yeah, the nuts. That's how
904
01:04:51.199 --> 01:04:55.199
big this case got. Can I
just say, though I love Diane Sawyer,
905
01:04:55.400 --> 01:04:58.199
actually really I really missed Diane Sawyer. I think she still does a
906
01:04:58.239 --> 01:05:00.360
little things here and there. But
no, we could ask a question like
907
01:05:00.480 --> 01:05:06.000
Diane Sawyer. Yeah, yeah,
it's great, Lady. Well, I
908
01:05:06.199 --> 01:05:10.199
think we oh god, you guys
are going to kill us, but I
909
01:05:10.280 --> 01:05:13.800
think we need to stop. I
know, we've got probably another hour of
910
01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:16.239
stuff to talk about in this case. There's just so much here. There's
911
01:05:16.280 --> 01:05:19.960
so much, and we're so sorry
because we really did think we could knock
912
01:05:20.000 --> 01:05:23.320
it out into but we're going to
have to make it three. Yeah,
913
01:05:24.239 --> 01:05:29.840
we promise we will finish the Lazy
and Scott Peterson case and our next episode
914
01:05:29.840 --> 01:05:33.239
we're going to sequester ourselves in the
in the light Bulb Lab recording studio.
915
01:05:33.440 --> 01:05:38.159
We're not going to we're done.
I think it's probably we'll probably wrap it
916
01:05:38.239 --> 01:05:41.800
up in an hour. But I
think we're both surprised that we've gone a
917
01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:45.320
little longer because we've never collaborated on
a case. How is it going so
918
01:05:45.440 --> 01:05:47.639
far? Do you do? You
like the collab I like it, but
919
01:05:47.920 --> 01:05:50.920
really it's not up to me,
And I'm curious if our listeners like that
920
01:05:51.039 --> 01:05:57.000
we both have the same information and
I like having a conversation with you.
921
01:05:57.280 --> 01:06:00.280
It's it is. It is kind
of nice, but it is funny because
922
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:05.119
we really did not have time to
get our information together. But I think
923
01:06:05.159 --> 01:06:10.039
it's going well. I've enjoyed it, and I hope everyone out there is
924
01:06:10.239 --> 01:06:15.559
enjoying their holiday, having fun with
their family and friends and eating some good
925
01:06:15.639 --> 01:06:20.000
food and some nice cookies. Not
everyone has like a you know, happy
926
01:06:20.079 --> 01:06:25.800
warm family, And if you are
by yourself today, I hope that you're
927
01:06:25.880 --> 01:06:30.000
finding some peace and some joy in
your day, little glimpses of happiness.
928
01:06:30.719 --> 01:06:36.400
We're recording this on December seventeenth,
so we haven't decided what we're having for
929
01:06:36.480 --> 01:06:41.360
dinner yet. We usually have prime
rib. Do you think we'll have prime
930
01:06:41.400 --> 01:06:43.920
rib? What do you think we're
going to do? I think prime rib
931
01:06:44.079 --> 01:06:47.480
is good. Prime rib is good. Oh that's a bold statement. Joy
932
01:06:47.599 --> 01:06:53.320
prime rib. I'm curious what Love
Mary Kill enterprises. What the Christmas bonus
933
01:06:53.440 --> 01:06:56.719
is? Gosh, that's a really
good question. Yeah, I don't know.
934
01:06:57.440 --> 01:07:00.119
Aren't you the I thought you were
the CEO of Love Mary. Well,
935
01:07:00.280 --> 01:07:03.599
I think we're co CEOs. So
hr is not going to do anything
936
01:07:03.639 --> 01:07:06.800
for us, probably probably like your
shirt by the way, it's a nice
937
01:07:06.840 --> 01:07:11.440
shirt. Yeah, I love Mary
or my love Mary kil hoodie. Today.
938
01:07:11.519 --> 01:07:14.159
For the recording, we do have
a couple of extras. I think
939
01:07:14.199 --> 01:07:18.039
we are planning on doing some sort
of giveaway if we ever get her act
940
01:07:18.119 --> 01:07:20.480
here. I think we need to
hire. We need an intern. We
941
01:07:20.840 --> 01:07:27.960
need we should, we should look
into that. Don't mind working for free
942
01:07:28.119 --> 01:07:31.280
free long I mean we could probably
will give you. You can work for
943
01:07:31.400 --> 01:07:34.880
cookies exactly, work for cookies and
next that's what I work for, cookies
944
01:07:34.920 --> 01:07:41.000
and and listeners. It'll we don't
have. We didn't plan on doing three
945
01:07:41.039 --> 01:07:47.159
episodes, so whatever snack comes next
will be a surprise for everyone. Merry
946
01:07:47.239 --> 01:07:51.599
Christmas, Happy New Year. We
love and appreciate our listeners so much,
947
01:07:53.960 --> 01:07:58.639
and we hope your your souls and
spirits are filled with joy and happiness and
948
01:07:58.719 --> 01:08:03.440
peace. Today well said, until
next time. Don't kill your husband.
949
01:08:03.559 --> 01:08:04.320
Don't kill your wife.
