Valk,

Unless it turns out that his infideilty is directly related to Lacy's dissapearance then its a non-issue. I know its a matter of deception and betrayal lol . . . but its one of those sex/relationship issues. And EVERYONE lies about sex and relationship issues.

Not many men/women want to admit they are cheating do they? And talk about a wrong moment!

The police ruled amber out as a suspect which kind of throws the the whole kill-wife-for-mistress-angle out.

The only way that Amber would be a factor is if it turns out that he killed his wife because she found out . . . in some kind of panic.

Maybe she absconded (Gr?) with some billionaire for a whole new life?

What was that movie where the Husband frames his wife for murder? No body but leaves enough circumstantial clues? "Double Jeapoardy"?

Maybe aliens got her?

He says now that he told her about it and she was "okay" with it although unhappy. First of all, I really doubt that she would've been "okay" with it, although of course I don't know her so I could be wrong.

Also, we have no outside verification that he is telling the truth. Laci was a woman who called a ton of friends and family at 7 a.m. after she found out she was pregnant (can you tell I spent too much time reading about it this weekend?)...do you REALLY think that's a woman who would tell NOBODY that her husband admitted he was having an affair? I think she would've told SOMEONE.

Actually his infidelity is relevant because it is a testament to his character. Not only will he cheat on his wife, but he will lie about it after the fact. Now, you posit that EVERYONE lies about these issues (which, I myself am guilty of, lol, but surely you can't speak for EVERYONE), does that justify it? Not really.

Just because the mistress was ruled out as a suspect doesn't mean the husband didn't kill her. It just means that the poor girl who he cheated with isn't under suspicion (it is my understanding that she was under the impression that the guy was single throughout their affair).

My take on this situation.....

Personally I think the guy flipped out and wacked his wife. I'm guessing since she was pregnant it had something to do with the baby.

My guess is that she woke up one day and told her husband that she might be pregnant with not just his baby. The guy probably flipped out. I guess he told her that he needed to get away from her for a little bit, hence the vacation. When he went away he had her whacked.

James, I wasn't commenting on the relevance of him having an affair. My comment that I didn't think he told her about the affair was only in response to you saying that it was cool that he told her. I don't think he did.

I'm still not sure what to think about the case. If he did kill her and dump her into the lake where he went fishing, I think that her body would have been found there and it hasn't been.

I'm also very curious about this store clerk in Washington state who says she saw a pregnant woman who said she had been kidnapped. If that clerk is accurate (and a complete dumbass for "forgetting" to call the authorities) it puts an interesting twist to the story. My thoughts are -- Scott drugged her to knock her out, wrapped her in a tarp and put her in his truck. He then drove to work, got the boat, took her to the marina where he went fishing and by then she was awake and he handed her off to the kidnapper (hence the screaming heard by someone at the marina that morning), and now she is in the custody of someone against her will. Of course I'm probably totally wrong and I have no idea WHY he would do this. If you've been having an affair with someone for only a month, I really don't see how it would make you want to get rid of your spouse. His relationship with Amber couldn't have been TOO intense because she did go to the police as soon as she found out that he was involved with the case and married.

Much as I love you I have to respectfully disagree here.

Yes, infidelity may something about his character. also lying.

However, there is a big difference between watning a piece of ass on the side and not wanting to ge in trouble for it, than hacking up your wife and feeding her to the fishies.

I know you ladies can't differentiate the two, and think of cheating, rape, and murder in the same category (Except when it's you doing the cheating with a Cabana boy on vacation) but there is a difference.

If there was a direct correlation between cheating/lying and partner killing, there would be an AWFUL lot of dead people out there lol.

Correct yourself. I never said he killed her, I said his infidelity had bearing on the case.

I know you love to generalize women (no matter the subject, for soe reason). Sorry to disappoint you.

I have no idea what happened, but I think that he was probably involved with her disappearence. It's just a feeling that I have.

And it was a "spur of the moment" trip, if you will. The boat was at his office while he was doing some work and decided to go for a short fishing trip. I also have this gut feeling that he is involved with her disappearance. Check out the article I've posted below.

Husband sells missing wife's SUV

SAN FRANCISCO, California (CNN) -- Scott Peterson recently sold his missing pregnant wife's Land Rover because he can no longer afford a rental after police impounded his truck, his sister told CNN Tuesday.

Peterson bought another pickup truck as a replacement.

Susan Caudillo said her brother's bills from the rental car were adding up. Police impounded his Ford F-150 and his 14-foot aluminum boat shortly after his wife, Laci, went missing on Christmas Eve in Modesto, California.

"I'm sure he didn't want to sell Laci's car," Caudillo said.

She said her brother needed a vehicle "to haul things around in." Peterson works on farms and sells fertilizer.

Caudillo did not know the exact day Scott Peterson sold the Land Rover but he was seen with the vehicle as recently as last week.

"Police are keeping his vehicle and not telling him when he can get it back. It could be a year or so," Caudillo said.

Police have said that Scott Peterson has not been eliminated from the investigation into the disappearance of his wife Laci, 27. Modesto police have said that a woman who said she was having a romantic relationship was cooperating and is not a suspect.

Peterson's wife is due to deliver a baby boy February 10. She was last reported seen by her husband the morning of December 24, when he left the house to go on a fishing trip about 85 miles away. She last talked to her mother on the evening of December 23.

Peterson said his wife was going to walk their dog in a nearby park and shop for items for dinner but she wasn't in the house when he returned in the late afternoon. A neighbor had found the dog, with its leash still on and put it in the backyard.

Police have said that Peterson presented them with a valid parking ticket for the Berkeley Marina, where he said he fished that day. A sonar search of the San Francisco Bay turned up no evidence.

A $500,000 reward has been posted for Laci Peterson's return.

Caudillo said the family plans to announce a "Nationwide Search Day for Laci" that they hope will take place this coming weekend.

Laci Peterson's family, which initially stood by Scott Peterson, has urged him to cooperate and be more forthcoming with police, especially after it was revealed that he was having an affair.

Not necessarily... bay area waters and lakes are not the nicest. Anything could have been dumped and be flushed out to sea in a few days. So if she was in that marina... her body could be long gone by now, hense no one being able to find it.
Back to my viewing of AMW... Xmas eve weather wasn't that spectacular and bystanders on the marina said anyone would have been NUTS to go fishing in that lil tiny boat in inclement weather. So either he didn't go fishing OR he really needed to do something else but fish.

police found two decomposing bodies (a woman and a full term male fetus) in richmond, ca..approximately 2 miles from where scott peterson was "fishing" the night his wife disappeared..however, identities have not been confirmed..

That is so sad. Whether it is her or not, I hope whoever was responsible for the deaths of those found is found and prosecuted.

sounds like too much of a coincidence to me...
