Does anyone know if Scott Peterson is a gemini?

I think it's kind of freaky that "mom" has been studying serial killers since she was 13... just my opinion.

Deesandy, I just glanced at your profile and realized that the link you posted is your home page. I apologize if I offended you with my earlier post...

you know, if you really think about it, it's probably not 'freaky' to be interested in this topic. i, too, read a lot about serial killers, am interested in the laci peterson case because her step-father was the head of construction for our latest strip mall, 4 blocks from my house, wonder about kristin smart because my son goes to the college she ended up missing from, etc. bad things do happen to good people. and being hyper-aware isn't always a 'negative' or strange thing. i will say it's too bad we have to be this way! but i am interested, specifically in the cases that i feel a connection to. it makes me a little nervous to have my young child out where people disappear--plus, scott peterson and laci rocha met where my son goes to college. again, i wish there wasn't any awful stuff out there; but there is.

All I can tell you is that I have never been in a situation where I could have been raped or harmed. I do not live in a closet, yet I am very aware of my surroundings. Good things do happen to bad people all the time. Trust me, I would trade not knowing about any of this for a safe place to raise my child. When I say "study" what I really mean is that I make myself aware. I am not offended at all and I pray that they find the young girl that was taken from a mall parking lot in broad daylight, Dru Sjodin. I hope that the feeling I get in the bottom of my stomach when I carry my sleeping child from one room to another goes away, when I have a flash picture of Danielle VanDam being carried out of her home while asleep. I pray that there is a hell because to think that someone can harm a child and not have to suffer a major fate would sadden me. Okay, enough said except one more thing: please consider posting the Amber Alert anywhere you can. You never know when you are going to be able to save a child's life. Thank you everyone, for this discussion!

tabby...kristin smart hits home (being from her home town), i know her dad stan smart as he was the principal of the school i used to work at. he finally left - the disappearance of kristin tore the family apart. all napans know that guy did it. just wish they could have found her to prove it.

landi, kristin smart's case just makes me ache inside. i believe everyone knows paul flores did it. i understand he just got another DUI, and can't hold onto a job. the guilt must be eating at him. certainly, i hope something turns up on her to settle this case, but i am reminded of chandra levy (condit was my district, and 90% of us feel he knows something about it...) and even after finding her body, it was too decomposed to come up with any definitive answers. i don't know how many of you remember my posts from august, where the young waitress from a restaurant in redding (where my brother's band plays) disappeared while we were in town. they finally arrested a boy who had been 17 at the time--it was the lead story when we were back in redding for christmas. he said she tried to come on to him sexually, so he had to kill her. well, everyone was just sure this guy had done it, but until they found her body (the kid 'talked' to his friends, who came forward), there was no way to pin it on him. like deesandy says, surroundings and opportunity have something to do with bad things, but not always. i do know the waitress had been to a party all night, where several of the party-goers were 16 and 17 years old. what kind of parent lets their 16-year-old stay out all night? and why would a 22-year-old hang out with kids so much younger? lots of circumstances put this young woman in danger--the alcohol, the drugs, etc. but it's so sad that she ended up dead. i remember hearing of a wild party here in town, where a woman was later arrested for providing alcohol and having sex with boys as young as junior high age. the lady was 39! and two days before her court appearance, she was arrested again for providing alcohol to boys in junior high and high school when neighbors saw kids drinking in her backyard! one lady told me her son (who was 16 at the time) had been at the party, but 'made the right decisions'--she said he didn't drink or have sex--although the boy told me later he did drink; he also said the lady offered his friend 100 dollars to sleep with him and they disappeared for a while. he said the other boy told him he didn't do it, though...yeah, right. a horny teenaged boy given alcohol and 100 dollars didn't sleep with someone? fat chance!) anyway, this gal whose son went to the party told me i was too overprotective and i should have let my kids go to the party, or 'they won't learn to make the right decisions'. i told her my kids made the right decision by deciding to not even go to the party where more difficult decisions and peer pressure would have created more problems. re-reading this post, i hope it doesn't look like i meant these poor people 'deserved' what they got. i mean it to read as sometimes people get into circumstances that they maybe could have avoided.

Thank you for this info about Kristin Smart. I am not familar with this case and plan to google it. How sad for the family to have this unsettled.

deesandy, i re-googled the smart case when my son was going to head off for school and dorm life. i did not want him in the same dorm room that paul may have killed kristin in. ds was put in the engineering dorm, so i was relieved.

Tabby, I understand where you are coming from. It must have been hard to let him leave. I also agree about putting yourself in certian situations and where they could lead. I am sure that if they could relive the moment, the VanDams would not live the lifestyle they were at that time. I remember hearing about Kristin Smart now. Doesn't it seem that this kind of activity is increasing? It seriously has me consider getting one of those electronic bracelets you put on your child so you can track them. But I don't want to live in fear...

Aw, come on Deesandy, Mike Lookinland ran afoul of the law for indulging in the wacky weed, but he's no killah.

I guess I can't find the humor of a young woman and her unborn child's murder...so sorry...

Trial moved to San Mateo County A judge ruled Tuesday to move Scott Peterson's double-murder trial to Redwood City, which is in the San Francisco Bay area of San Mateo County. The trial is still slated to begin on Jan. 26, most likely with a new judge. Update soon.

Tonight on the Discovery Channel they are airing a one hour show called "Laci Peterson: Search for Justice". Not sure if it's a repeat but it airs at 8pm and 11pm CENTRAL.

well, they moved scott's trial to san mateo county, but it won't benefit him much, luckily. still too near home and too near where they found the bodies. i'll bet the defense wishes they hadn't asked for a change of venue.....they were pushing for southern california--like no one ever heard of this case outside of central california. that's laughable. the san mateo area if you need a landmark is near where the san francisco airport is--only 20 miles or so south of the city itself. there was a laci peterson one-hour show i saw about 4 months ago. not sure if it's the same one that will be on tonight on discovery.

He cant go far enough away to anywhere, the outcome of that trial will be the same. I think they wanted LA because if OJ could get off on that evidence, anybody can.

i agree with you about why they REALLY wanted l.a., maris! but they were pretending being that far from modesto would be a help because 'people weren't as aware of the case'.
