The prosecutions theory hinged on Laci being dumped in the bay. Their own expert could not explain why Laci or Conner where found where they were. He couldn't produce any scientific data to prove the States theory.
Conner was alive well after the 24th.
Conners body was above the water break and high tide line
No animal feeding on Conner.
Plastic wrap get knotted around his neck that had to be cut off, not far from a plastic bag which was never tested.
His left ear was permanently flattened against the head, and a rectangular piece of material was over his ear.
No evidence of Laci being dead in any alleged crime scene.
No cadaver scent of Laci being dead in the boat, warehouse, truck, or home.
No witnesses seen Scott transferring a body in broad daylight and no witnesses ever seen anything that could have been a body in the boat.
Laci's injuries or bodily conditions are not consistent with the State's theory.
Laci's uterus was at least 10 cm (3.9") smaller than it should have been? Certainly explains why the incision to remove Conner was not visible on her body, and the injured 9th rib, postmortem injury is in the same location where such an incision would have been made.
Laci's 4th, 5th, and 6th cervical vertebrae were missing. The State had no explanation for this.
Yhe vertebrae column will not disarticulate.
The SF Medical examine told the lead detective that it would be highly unlikely that 32 lbs would submerge the body. It would just float. He also said the currents would likely take the body out to sea. She was found nearly 4 months later. How do currents flowing Southbound at 4 knots place either body where they were found.
No evidence proving Scott made more than a single anchor. Detective Brocchini was more than happy to fabricate that lie. Media ran with it.
Evidence concludes Laci was alive and dismembered. Conner was handled well after her disappearance. Unless someone can give a compelling explanation as to how SP committed this murder with these facts alone, I would love to hear it.

Conner did not wash ashore.
27 days of searches before the bodies were even discovered.
December 28, 30; Jan 8, 9, 11, 18, 24, 28; Feb 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 20, 21, 23, 26; March 1, 2, 3, 4, 11, 12, 13, 26, 27, 29;
You don't expect people to believe miles and miles of waterways and shoreline were patrolled by police, do you? They didn't even cordon off anything during the search days. LOL
FYI, Conner could not have washed ashore from any direction under the conditions that existed on April 13. The water level produced by the 5.88 high tide simply did not produce a waterway to carry him to where he was found. And he was beyond the debris line, which means that he was not pushed back to where he was found by the breaking waves.
The SF Medical examine told the lead detective that it would be highly unlikely that 32 lbs would submerge the body. It would just float. He also said the currents would likely take the body out to sea. She was found nearly 4 months later. How do currents flowing Southbound at 4 knots place either body where they were found.
-Conner (baby) was found above the high tide line and water break.
-The baby's left ear was permanently flattened against the head and a rectangular piece of material was over his ear.
-Plastic wrap knotted around his neck that had to be cut off, not far from a plastic bag which was never tested.
-The criminologist and medical examiner, both concluded that the twine could not have wrapped around Conner’s neck accidentally. Dr. Cyril Wecht noted, "never in a million years."
-Laci had a missing neck that is not consistent with any known disarticulation in aqueous environments.
-Laci's uterus was at least 10 cm (3.9") smaller than it should have been, explaining why the incision to remove Conner was not visible on her body, and the injured 9th rib, postmortem injury is in the same location where such an incision would have been made.

@ClaudiaWenzlik
What makes you think he wasn't concerned? Here is some testimony that says otherwise.
Okay. Now, did you also say, in your response to Mr. Distaso's questions, that you'd never seen him hysterical, but you had seen him cry, you had seem him being emotional after Laci was missing, isn't that right?
GRANTSKI: Yes, I had.
GERAGOS: On more than one occasion?
GRANTSKI: Yes.
GERAGOS: He was extremely emotional, especially for him, because you had never seen him emotional at all before that?
GRANTSKI: That's true.
.
.GERAGOS: The comment was, if I've got it right, he's in the driveway, is he standing with a police officer?
GRANTSKI: He came walking up as I was talking to the police, to where I was standing.
GERAGOS: Okay. And you say, How was golfing?
GRANTSKI: Yeah.
GERAGOS: Okay. And he said,
GRANTSKI: He said I didn't go golfing, I went fishing.
Officer Spurlock:
Officer Spurlock: I saw Mr. Peterson. He seemed concerned. He had a look of concern on his face. I think he maybe even had some tears in his eyes. But as far as a frantic behavior, I wouldn't claim. Just frantic concern.
…
Mark Mark Geragos: Did he appear to be upset to you?
Officer Spurlock: Yes. I would say so.
Officer Evers:
Mark Mark Geragos: When you saw them, you saw that Laci's mom Sharon, you know who Sharon is; is that correct?
Officer Evers: Yes, I do.
Mark Mark Geragos: She was crying, and she was very, very upset, correct?
Officer Evers: That's correct.
Mark Mark Geragos: When so Scott, when he walked up, he appeared to be very upset; is that correct?
Officer Evers: That's correct.
Mark Geragaos: And the other family members, you described them as just concerned, correct?
Officer Evers: Yes.
Detective Grogan:
Mark Geragos: Now the, did you look at any of the interviews that Ms. Rocha had given, for example, to the Today Show on December 30th in which she says mom, that she said that Scott said, "Mom, is Laci there"?
Craig Grogan: No, I have never seen that before.
Mark Geragos: Did you ever look at the January 14th Today's Show where she said "I just immediately, I knew she was missing"?
Craig Grogan: No, I have never seen that before.
Mark Geragos: Okay. That would have been the January 14th show would have been two days before she was told about the existence of Amber Frey, is that correct, or the day before?
Craig Grogan: It would have been the day before, yes.
Mark Geragos: And that, at least if the transcript's accurate, she's the one who said that she knew Laci was missing just by the panic rising in Scott's voice, correct?
Craig Grogan: Yes, that's what it says.
Amie Krigbaum (neighbor):
Amie Krigbaum: So I mean he, he was distraught; it kind of made me a little distraught, so I didn't really know how to handle the situation, so
Prosecutor Distaso: Okay.
Amie Krigbaum: I just kind of took bits and pieces of it and didn't really know what to do. I shut the door and kind of asked Terra, Help him look, or, you know?
Greg Reed (Scott’s friend):
Prosecutor Distaso: Okay. What, let me, before I show you the report and refresh your memory, what did, what was Mr. Peterson's, how did he sound on the message?
Greg Reed: The perfect word would be frantic.
Stacey Boyers (Laci’s friend):
Mark Mark Geragos: You got a call from Scott approximately what time?
Stacey Boyers: 5:26.
Mark Mark Geragos: Okay. You know that now because you looked at cell phone records?
Stacey Boyers: My cell phone records, yes.
Mark Mark Geragos: You didn't just,
Stacey Boyers: Didn't just pull that out, no.
Mark Mark Geragos: Okay. Now, you get the call at 5:26. Was he upset?
Stacey Boyers: Uh, yes.
Lori Ellsworth (Laci’s friend):
Lori Ellsworth: He had a different tone in his voice, yes.
Pat Harris: He was panicked, wasn't he?
Lori Ellsworth: Panic, maybe

@niccolleonlyone WRONG.
Don't make up lies. That's all you are doing. What makes you think he wasn't concerned? Here is some testimony that says otherwise.

@Tomtaylor7337
This was his 4th boat. He was around boats his entire life. One of the first dates with Laci, he took her on a boat. Scott gave Bruce Peterson his full name and correct address. Because that is the procedure. It was filed the same day and the records from the DMV reflect the purchase. Scotts full name and mailing address to his home. He certainly didn't give his address at the warehouse, did he? That would have been good way to keep it a secret. But he didn't do that.
During the December 27th search of the Peterson’s home, police found handwritten notes on Scott and Laci’s computer desk that they collected and labeled, “Miscellaneous papers containing phone numbers to C&C Marine & Bob’s Marine”
GERAGOS: And so wouldn't that, if you're buying a boat on December 9th and you're listing your home address as 523 Covena, wouldn't one expect, especially if he's bought and sold vehicles in the past, that you're going to get a notice from the DMV? That's not exactly a place that you would want to put that address to hide it from Laci Peterson, would you?
GROGAN: No, it would not, it would come to the house, or any mail that went between the Department of Motor Vehicles would go to the address that's on there.
GERAGOS: Okay. As opposed to if you put the Emerald Avenue address, or something like that, correct?
GROGAN: Correct.
Scott also offered to pay with a personal check that can be traced back to him. Bruce Peterson testified he asked for cash. So, Scott went to the bank and got cash that he used to pay for the boat. That alone is evidence that there was no attempt to but a secret boat. If Scott wanted a secret boat, he would have bought the unregistered boat with no paperwork to be filed with the DMV.
$1400 withdrawn from Scott and Laci's joint checking account.
McALLISTER: And then Scott Peterson asked Bruce Peterson to hold the boat for him; right?
BROCCHINI: Yes.

@AR-jv3hx Wrong
Did want kids
Mark Geragos: And also fair to say that she was very excited about the kid?
Brent Rocha: Yes.
Mark Geragos: Okay. And Scott was as well?
Brent Rocha: Yes.
Mark Geragos: When he talked about, when you talked to him, he would express the fact that he's, I mean he's a goal-oriented person; you heard that description earlier today. You would agreed with that, right?
Brent Rocha: Yes.
Mark Geragos: And is, one of his goals was to have a child and a family?
Brent Rocha: Yes.
Mark Geragos: Okay. And he told you that he was thinking about what kind of father he was going to be and he was crying and he said he was going to be great; isn't that what he told you?
Brent Rocha: That's what he was saying.
Sharon Rocha confirmed, on Larry King Live, that Laci told her Scott had changed his mind about having a baby shortly after they moved to Covena in October 2002:
Brent Rocha confirmed that Scott did indeed plan to have a family, and was quite emotional about becoming a father:
Greg Reed gave testimony about Scott's and Laci's relationship, and Scott's participation in Laci's pregnancy.
HARRIS: You also, Kristen, your wife, became friends with Laci, is that fair?
REED: All four of us met at the same time.
HARRIS: And they became friends separate of you and Scott? Kristen and Laci became friends?
REED: Yes, they did.
HARRIS: And at some point you and your wife began a Lamaze class at your home, is that correct?
REED: That is correct.
HARRIS: And you asked Scott and Laci if they would like to join in the Lamaze class?
REED: That is correct.
HARRIS: And they agreed to do that, right?
REED: Yes.
HARRIS: Okay. During about a one month period, they came to your house on a weekly basis to participate in the Lamaze classes, is that right?
REED: That's probably about right. About once a week.
HARRIS: You got a chance to see them interact quite a bit during that, didn't you?
REED: Yes.
HARRIS: And your impression, from telling the police, your impression was that they were a very happy couple?
REED: Yes.
HARRIS: And, in fact, you told the police Scott treated her very, very well?
REED: Yes.
HARRIS: They both, I believe your quote to the police was they were both very excited about the baby coming, is that right?
REED: That's what it appeared, yes.
HARRIS: And you were called in an interview you did with the police, excuse me. Let me take that back. Do you recall an incident at one point where you were looking through a catalog called Cabella's catalog?
REED: Yes, I remember that.
HARRIS: What is the Cabella's catalog?
REED: It's a hunting, fishing, outdoors-type of magazine. And equipment.
HARRIS: And they actually sell kids' camouflage outfits, is that right?
REED: In that magazine they were.
HARRIS: In that particular one?
REED: Yes.
HARRIS: During that time you were looking at it, both you and Scott were going through the, the kids' section or the kids' outfits,
hunting and fishing, or whatever outfits, and the two of you were talking and laughing about how much you couldn't wait to buy your kids those kind of outfits, is that correct?
REED: I remember that clearly, that's correct.
HARRIS: Okay. Scott was very excited about that possibility, wasn't he?
REED: Yes.
Couples they hung out with started having babies, Scott and Laci surprised friends when they reversed an earlier stance of not wanting children. Laci, who had had surgery years earlier and was left with one ovary, knew it would be difficult to conceive and methodically tracked her cycle. Richardson said she recalls Laci expressing frustration that Scott always seemed to be traveling at the wrong time, and it took some time before Laci was pregnant.
By early June in 2002 she got the good news. She enrolled in a prenatal yoga course and attended Lamaze classes with Scott.
They also got to work early on the baby's room. Consistent with the decorations for The Shack and with Scott's interest in fishing, the couple chose a nautical theme, even hanging a life preserver decoration that read: "Welcome Aboard."

@sinatra222
Many are under the impression there was this insurmountable amount of circumstantial evidence. The truth is, there wasn't. The media played a huge part relaying things were simply not true or accurate. Not entirely all the juries fault. Police were responsible for leaking things that were false. It creates baseless theories, and widespread conjecture.
Examples....
The prosecutions theory hinged on Laci being dumped in the bay. Their own expert could not explain why Laci or Conner where found where they were. He couldn't produce any scientific data to prove the States theory.
Conner was alive well after the 24th.
Conners body was above the water break and high tide line
No animal feeding on Conner.
Plastic wrap get knotted around his neck that had to be cut off, not far from a plastic bag which was never tested.
His left ear was permanently flattened against the head, and a rectangular piece of material was over his ear.
No evidence of Laci being dead in any alleged crime scene.
No cadaver scent of Laci being dead in the boat, warehouse, truck, or home.
No witnesses seen Scott transferring a body in broad daylight and no witnesses ever seen anything that could have been a body in the boat.
Laci's injuries or bodily conditions are not consistent with the State's theory.
Laci's uterus was at least 10 cm (3.9") smaller than it should have been? Certainly explains why the incision to remove Conner was not visible on her body, and the injured 9th rib, postmortem injury is in the same location where such an incision would have been made.
Laci's 4th, 5th, and 6th cervical vertebrae were missing. The State had no explanation for this.
Yhe vertebrae column will not disarticulate.
The SF Medical examine told the lead detective that it would be highly unlikely that 32 lbs would submerge the body. It would just float. He also said the currents would likely take the body out to sea. She was found nearly 4 months later. How do currents flowing Southbound at 4 knots place either body where they were found.
No evidence proving Scott made more than a single anchor. Detective Brocchini was more than happy to fabricate that lie. Media ran with it.
Evidence concludes Laci was alive and dismembered. Conner was handled well after her disappearance. Unless someone can give a compelling explanation as to how SP committed this murder with these facts alone, I would love to hear it.
