Current Events

Has anyone seen the news about the Columbia Space Shuttle? It just started breaking apart over Texas... All 7 astonaughts were killed. Isn't that horrible?! 2 women and 5 men. Those poor families.

Well, I thought that a current events page can help us all keep updated on news that we all should know about. (Sorry that the first one had to be a sad one...) But if you found something out that we all should know, post it here...

Laci Peterson

The lady that you mention is Laci Peterson and her baby, Connor are from my town, Modesto, Ca. Its very sad. Her due date was yesterday, and there was a candle vigil in the park that she was supposedly going to on the day of her dissapparnce. We have had America's Most wanted here and every news reporter you can thing of. My prayers are with Laci and her family. They said on the news that is possible that the baby can still be born up to two weeks after the scheduled due date. I hope everything works out. Everyone here has passed out flyers, and now they have buttons too. I even go to the salon that her sister works at and when you walk up it looks like a huge missing person sign. Don't worry though, our town isn't like a crazy ghetto where there all these kidnappings... But if anyone remembers Chandra Levi and Sentor Gary Condit they are from here too. (man talk about bad press!) If anyone is interested in checking out more info on Laci her website is: www.lacipeterson.com

Talking about Laci Peterson... I heard on the news that she was supposidly spotted in Washington, at a store. I think they mentioned it was K-Mart, or something to that affect... They said that she was with an older man, and when the older man turned around she whispered to the cashier that she had been kidnapped, and to contact the police!

I never did hear what happened after that... but if that was some rumor, they shouldn't have put it on the news.

I feel bad for the family. And to find out that the husband has been selling cars and stuff... and trying to sell the house! What is he thinking?

Let's just hope that they find her safe and sound.

My boyfriend knows a cop and the cop told him that they found traces of blood in laci's house. They took one of those black light things to detect it and they found it on the floor, down the drain of the sink and other places too. hopefully this doesnt mean he killed laci, but the cop did tell my boyfriend that he heard the husband is pretty much considered guilty, they just need to find a body before they can take him in. Not that i want this to be the case, im just saying what I heard. Hopefully it's not true.

There has been a lot of bad press on Scott Peterson, Laci's husband. A lot of people out here in mo-town, as I am sure as everywhere else has been saying its him that is guilty since she dissappeared. Its just very strange...
Oh yea, Beth The thing about the Washingtion clerk was false info.(on the clerks part) The clerk said a pregnant lady came in and told her that she had been kiddnapped but then the clerk said she has forgotten about it until she saw Laci on the news. It was kinda like, hello don't you think if a pregnant lady told you she was kidnapped and was acting weird would it slip your mind? I don't know about that. But they said there was no way it was a lead. And yea, her husband did sell her car, but once the delearship found out it was Laci's the owner gave it to her family. And he did try to put their house on the market, but couldn't. (crazy!) Oh yea and he was having an affair with a lady from Fresno. He told reporters that he told Laci about two weeks before she dissappared and she was ok with it. (again do you really think that a pregnant woman would be ok with her husband cheating on her!) oh well all we can do know is keep Laci in our prayers.

Mr. Rogers dies at 74

Did you hear that Mr. Rogers died this morning? I read it on the MSN website. How sad is that? I grew up watching his show... At least he's not battling with cancer anymore.

Thumbs up Elizabeth Smart Found Alive!

Has everyone heard that they found Elizabeth Smart, the 15 year old from Salt Lake City, UT, alive yesterday??? I think that's just wonderful!

Seriously though, think about how awful that must have been for her. I read online today, that she said that there were no opportunities for her to escape, because there were two people with her at all times... and that she said that she heard the searchers calling her name... But obviously couldn't do anything about it...

But I just think that it's wonderful that she's alright!

I'm sure you all already know this but if you haven't...

They have identified Laci and Connor Peterson bodies. Modesto Police held a news conference today at 6pm and also said that they have arrested Scott Peterson. They arrested him before the bodies were confirmed. He was in San Diego and they are going to book him at the Stanislaus County Jail. According to a DA they are charging him with Capital Murder.

This info is just really really sad
At least now there is closure, but Modesto and our nation is suffering the loss of Laci and Connor
