<br />
As these two thumbnail sketches show, the jury had one question to resolve: was Laci alive when Scott left for the warehouse and Berkeley Marina? If so, then Scott was innocent. If not, then he was guilty. <br />
<br />
If Laci is alive and walking McKenzi after Scott leaves for the warehouse, he is innocent. <br />
<br />
If indeed “Laci witnessed him [Steve Todd] breaking in” then -- regardless of whether Todd is involved in Laci’s actual disappearance and murder -- Scott is innocent. <br />
<br />
If Conner Peterson lived beyond December 24, Scott is innocent.<br />
<br />
If just one of those things is true, Scott is innocent.<br />
<br />

Notice the presence of the red algae, as Pin Kyo testified there was a red staining on Laci's clothes that might have been algae. Notice also the very large pipes, and also the one that has rocks in it that are the form of a body. Made us think it might have been a tribute to Laci. I personally think along the shores of the Albany Bulb is the most likely place Laci lodged for those 3 1/2 months. It was intertidal, allowing for successive barnacle settlements, as Laci had barnacles of varying sizes on her skeleton and her clothes. At the time of Laci's disappearance, the Bulb was inhabited by an ant-cop homeless population, who naturally would not dial 911 if they saw a body there and have their sanctuary invaded by media and police.<br />

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 10.66px;">
<span style="border: 1pt; color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Fifteen years ago today, on January 2,
2003, the Modesto Police Department had a real opportunity to find Laci
Peterson alive.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Instead, by their
actions, they guaranteed her demise. </span></span></div>
<span style="border: 1pt; color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="font-family: inherit;">You may not recognize the name George
Stough.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>He was the detective put in
charge of the Medina burglary investigation after MPD received information from
Diane Jackson that she had seen a white van and 3-dark skinned men in front of
the Medina house on December 24, 2002 at 11:40 a.m. as she drove by. <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>At that time, she saw a safe being removed
from the house. <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="border: 1pt; color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This is how George Stough solved the
case:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="border: 1pt; color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0in;"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">1.</span><span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 7pt "Times New Roman"; margin: 0px;"> </span></span></span><span style="border: 1pt; color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">He influenced Diane Jackson to change her initial
description of the vehicle involved in the burglary, increasing the likelihood
that the van would never be found.</span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px;">
<span style="border: 1pt; color: black; margin: 0px; padding: 0in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When
Stough first spoke to Diane Jackson at 6:30 p.m. on December 27, he did not
accept her <u>original description of the van as being white</u>.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>He “<i>asked the witness to attempt to
remember back as she was driving by and see if she could visualize the van in
her mind. <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>At this point she said she
thought darker, either a tan or a brown-colored van.” </i><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>In the reward poster made public on January 1,
2003 the van was described as being tan or light brown.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">2.</span><span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 7pt "Times New Roman"; margin: 0px;">
</span></span></span><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">He offered the burglars a deal. </span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On January 1, 2003, in a Modesto Bee article, George
Stough offered the burglars a deal even though he didn’t know who they were,
and he did know that they may have been involved in Laci’s disappearance.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">He is quoted in the Modesto Bee:<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>"If we got a call from the suspects
saying that they saw something happening over there but they are afraid to come
in, we might be able to work out a deal.” </span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px; text-indent: -0.25in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">3.</span><span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font: 7pt "Times New Roman"; margin: 0px;">
</span></span></span><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";">He accepted the burglars’ version of events
even though their stories were obviously false.</span><span style="color: black; margin: 0px;"></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On January 2, Detective Stough spoke to an
informant who had come forward to claim the $1000 reward for information on the
burglary.<span style="margin: 0px;"> Sometime after 6:00 p.m.</span> Steve Todd and Donald
Pearce were arrested.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>They claimed the
burglary had occurred on December 27 until Stough clarified that they meant to
say December 26. </span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 0px 48px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "calibri";"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On January 3 at 5:00 p.m., an MPD Press
release stated:<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span><span style="color: black; margin: 0px;">Todd
and Pearce have both cooperated fully in the burglary investigation and police
do not have any reason to believe they are connected to the disappearance of
Laci Peterson. "We have been able to verify the truthfulness of their
statements," said Detective George Stough. </span></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 10.66px 48px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">No matter that Todd and Pearce didn’t fit the
description of the men seen by Diane Jackson.<span style="margin: 0px;">
</span>Never mind that Diane Jackson saw the safe being removed from the house
at 11:40 a.m. on December 24<sup><span style="font-size: xx-small;">th</span></sup>. <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Stough was convinced that the burglars carried
a large safe out the front door and onto the front lawn at Medina’s around 7
a.m. on December 26 even though news reporters and trucks were present in the
neighborhood. (Ted Rowlands was right in front of the Medina’s house at that
time.)</span></span></div>
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">In less than a week George Stough wrapped up the case.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Simple.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 10.66px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">However, Just to make sure that Diane Jackson would be unable to
testify to the pesky details of what she saw on December 24<sup><span style="font-size: xx-small;">th</span></sup>,
Detective Stough arranged for her to be hypnotized on January 17 by an
unqualified hypnotist.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 10.66px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">End of story as far as the MPD was concerned.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>But definitely not the end of the story for
those who believe Scott Peterson is innocent.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />

The person tells what he or she witnessed and the jurors decide whether the witness is credible. <br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Eyewitness testimony can . . . be critiqued on several grounds: having impaired perception, having impaired memory, having an inconsistent testimony, having bias or prejudice, and not having a reputation for telling the truth. If any of those characteristics can be demonstrated, then the competency of a witness is questionable. (<a href="https://www.thoughtco.com/eyewitness-testimony-and-memory-250498" target="_blank">Eyewitness Testimony, Memory and Psychology</a>)<br />
<h2 class="comp article-subheading" id="article-subheading_1-0">
</h2>
</blockquote>
"Mistaken or flawed identification has assumed a newfound prominence in recent years: It's been cited as a factor in nearly 78 percent of the nation's first 130 convictions later overturned by DNA testing" (<a href="http://www.apa.org/monitor/apr06/eyewitness.aspx" target="_blank">"How reliable is eyewitness testimony?" American Psychological Association, April 2006, Vol. 37, No. 4</a>).<br />
<br />
One of the problems affecting the credibility of an eye witness identification is visual impairment caused by distance. Geoffrey Loftus, PhD, a University of Washington perception and cognition psychology professor, "began seeking a way to visually present to juries the proposition that people's ability to decipher details degrades rapidly as a person or object moves further away. 'At 10 feet, you might not be able to see individual eyelashes on a person's face,' he says. 'At 200 feet, you would not even be able to see a person's eyes. At 500 feet, you could see the person's head but just one big blur. There is equivalence between size and blurriness-by making something smaller you lose the fine details'." (<a href="http://www.apa.org/monitor/apr06/eyewitness.aspx" target="_blank">"How reliable is eyewitness testimony?", American Psychological Association, April 2006, Vol. 37, No. 4</a>).<br />
<b></b><i></i><u></u><sub></sub><sup></sup><strike></strike><br />
Another problem with eye witness evidence is that the memory is not perfect. As Elizabeth Loftus describes in her book <em>Memory: Surprising New Insights into How We Remember and Why We Forget</em>:<br />
<blockquote>
Memory is imperfect. This is because we often do not see things accurately in the first place. But even if we take in a reasonably accurate picture of some experience, it does not necessarily stay perfectly intact in memory. Another force is at work. The memory traces can actually undergo distortion. With the passage of time, with proper motivation, with the introduction of special kinds of interfering facts, the memory traces seem sometimes to change or become transformed. These distortions can be quite frightening, for they can cause us to have memories of things that never happened. Even in the most intelligent among us is memory thus malleable.</blockquote>
"Memory is not so much a static state as it is an ongoing process - and one which never happens in quite the same way twice. This is why we should have a skeptical, critical attitude towards all eyewitness testimony and all reports from memory - even our own and no matter what the subject, however mundane." (<a href="https://www.thoughtco.com/eyewitness-testimony-and-memory-250498" target="_blank">Eyewitness Testimony, Memory and Psychology</a>)<br />
<br />
Eye witness testimony isn't just important to a State's case; sometimes defendants must rely heavily on it, too. Such is the case with Scott Peterson -- he relies on the credibility of several eye witnesses to confirm that Laci was still alive when he left for the warehouse on the morning of December 24, 2002. Many people simply dismiss those eye witnesses out of hand, citing the general unreliability of eye witnesses. <br />
<br />
It is true that sincere people may have thought they saw Laci, but were mistaken and saw someone else. Or they may have thought they saw her on December 24, when in fact they saw her on another day. Certainly, they may have been affected by the public information that Laci was wearing a white top and black pants, but the Missing Persons posters didn't have Laci wearing a white top and black pants. These are the pictures as they appeared on the Missing Persons poster, and also as used by the media.<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dismissing all eye witness sightings because some are flawed is just ridiculous. There are six significant factors that significantly increase the credibility of the 7 eye witness sightings reported in the A&E docuseries. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First, Laci was not alone, she was with McKenzie. Laci wasn't just a woman walking, or a pregnant woman walking. She was a pregnant woman walking McKenzie, a golden retriever. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This photo of McKenzie is People's Exhibit no. 27A.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMescwK8p9NQwTkx0H1Xn7Jbhli1hu9ul47_wwjxxuWUcnpJ_s8u8etWeIv_DBUfFExQI_FCQJOulZ2FNabIou_7JIfM5uiUMKP13tZcxoUQXRGCkdSD4mDQuNJlNIeyLXDNjZto54rXI/s1600/27A.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="535" data-original-width="703" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMescwK8p9NQwTkx0H1Xn7Jbhli1hu9ul47_wwjxxuWUcnpJ_s8u8etWeIv_DBUfFExQI_FCQJOulZ2FNabIou_7JIfM5uiUMKP13tZcxoUQXRGCkdSD4mDQuNJlNIeyLXDNjZto54rXI/s320/27A.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
</div>
<div>
Second, she was very close to the person(s) who saw her. The Maldonado's, Tony Freitas, Frank and Martha Aguilar, and Gene Pedrioli all drove by Laci and McKenzie walking along the sidewalk. The Mitchell's saw Laci and McKenzie as they walked in front of their home. Chiavetta saw Laci and McKenzie in the park while he and his own dog were playing in the park. Campos was the furthest away from Laci and McKenzie, but she could see McKenzie well enough to notice the distinguishing white fur on his chest.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Third, there was something else that made the sighting more memorable. The Maldonado's saw McKenzie up on his hind legs and wondered if he might knock Laci over. Freitas also saw 2 scrubby looking men at the bus stop very near where Laci and McKenzie were walking. The Aguilar's thought it very foolish for Laci to not have on a coat. The Mitchells thought McKenzie wanted to go one way and Laci another. Campos saw and heard the 2 men that were harassing Laci. Chiavetta was paying much more attention to McKenzie because his own dog was off leash.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fourth, the sightings collectively form a walk route for Laci and McKenzie. For a good visual of the walk route, please refer to <a href="https://pwc-consulting.blogspot.com/2017/09/lacis-walk-a-docuseries.html" target="_blank">Laci's Walk - The A&E Docuseries</a>, written by Jane Hamilton. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fifth, none of these eye witnesses knew that the others had also seen Laci and McKenzie that morning along that route. They were not influenced by each other's account. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sixth, while it was widely reported that Laci and McKenzie walked in the park, 5 of these 7 sightings were not in the park. The Campos sighting was in a different part of the park than where Laci was reported to have walked. <br />
<br />
These are the women the Prosecution paraded before the jury to prove the eye witnesses were mistaken. I have links to both the testimonies and the maps/photos.<br />

<div align="left" style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Dempewolf's wife was 9 months pregnant on Dec. 24, '02, and she was walking her dog, a chocolate Lab, in the Dry Creek Park that day. He said she left between 9;15 and 9:30, and the walk took about 45-60 minutes. She walked through the subdivisions to La Loma, entered the park, walked through the park to the paved path, continued on Edgebrooke to Covena, down Covena to Encina and then home. Geragos reviewed the statements he gave to Bertalotto in Jan '04, indicating he couldn't specify the time she took the walk. And, in response to Geragos' last question, he replied: My wife has a good memory, I don't. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">These three women were all pregnant on Dec 24, '02, lived in the La Loma neighborhood, and regularly took walks. Prescott could not say with certainty she walked the morning of the 24th, and the other two were certain they did not walk that morning. When Prescott did walk, she pulled her daughter along in a red wagon, and her dog is a lab mix. When Guptill walked, she often was pushing her son in a jogging stroller, and she didn't have a dog. Lear's dog was a Australian Shepherd, and she usually walked in the afternoons. Prescott was 2 1/2 months pregnant with twins, Guptill was 5 months pregnant, and Lear was 6 1/2 months pregnant on December 24, 2002.</span></div>

<div align="left" style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Westphal routinely walks a route that takes her from Edgebrooke down Covena to Encina, right past the Peterson home. She testified that she did take her walk on Dec 24 '02 and arrived at Covena about 10:50 am, and she did not see anything out of the ordinary. Westphal's testimony, however, didn't agree with what she told officers going door-to-door on the night of Dec. 24. She told them she couldn't be sure she walked down Covena that morning. Her testimony seemed to contradict what she told her neighbor and her mother about her activities on the morning of the 24th. Westphal walked with another woman, Dana Evans, who has not yet been called to testify.</span></div>

She has long blond hair, and her dog is a black, part Lab and part German Shepherd. She arrived at home after her walk by 9:30.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Lee said he ran his usual run along the park's bike trail on the morning of Dec. 24, leaving his home at 10:00 am. He said he would have arrived at the Covena trail about 15 minutes later. The weather was cold, so he wore sweats instead of shorts, and he didn't see anyone on the bike trail. Geragos pointed out that his testimony disagreed with the information he gave when interviewed last summer. Then he told police he took his run sometime before noon, sometime between 10 and 11:30. He runs with a chocolate Lab. </span></div>

Grogan in June '03, and she told him she couldn't be certain how often she walked in December. </span></div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Many years ago there was an Emperor so exceedingly fond of new clothes that he spent all his money on being well dressed. He cared nothing about reviewing his soldiers, going to the theatre, or going for a ride in his carriage, except to show off his new clothes. He had a coat for every hour of the day, and instead of saying, as one might, about any other ruler, "The King's in council," here they always said. "The Emperor's in his dressing room."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
In the great city where he lived, life was always gay. Every day many strangers came to town, and among them one day came two swindlers. They let it be known they were weavers, and they said they could weave the most magnificent fabrics imaginable. Not only were their colors and patterns uncommonly fine, but clothes made of this cloth had a wonderful way of becoming invisible to anyone who was unfit for his office, or who was unusually stupid. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Those would be just the clothes for me," thought the Emperor. "If I wore them I would be able to discover which men in my empire are unfit for their posts. And I could tell the wise men from the fools. Yes, I certainly must get some of the stuff woven for me right away." He paid the two swindlers a large sum of money to start work at once.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
They set up two looms and pretended to weave, though there was nothing on the looms. All the finest silk and the purest old thread which they demanded went into their traveling bags, while they worked the empty looms far into the night. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"I'd like to know how those weavers are getting on with the cloth," the Emperor thought, but he felt slightly uncomfortable when he remembered that those who were unfit for their position would not be able to see the fabric. It couldn't have been that he doubted himself, yet he thought he'd rather send someone else to see how things were going. The whole town knew about the cloth's peculiar power, and all were impatient to find out how stupid their neighbors were.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"I'll send my honest old minister to the weavers," the Emperor decided. "He'll be the best one to tell me how the material looks, for he's a sensible man and no one does his duty better." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
So the honest old minister went to the room where the two swindlers sat working away at their empty looms. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Heaven help me," he thought as his eyes flew wide open, "I can't see anything at all". But he did not say so. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Both the swindlers begged him to be so kind as to come near to approve the excellent pattern, the beautiful colors. They pointed to the empty looms, and the poor old minister stared as hard as he dared. He couldn't see anything, because there was nothing to see. "Heaven have mercy," he thought. "Can it be that I'm a fool? I'd have never guessed it, and not a soul must know. Am I unfit to be the minister? It would never do to let on that I can't see the cloth."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Don't hesitate to tell us what you think of it," said one of the weavers. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Oh, it's beautiful -it's enchanting." The old minister peered through his spectacles. "Such a pattern, what colors!" I'll be sure to tell the Emperor how delighted I am with it."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"We're pleased to hear that," the swindlers said. They proceeded to name all the colors and to explain the intricate pattern. The old minister paid the closest attention, so that he could tell it all to the Emperor. And so he did. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The swindlers at once asked for more money, more silk and gold thread, to get on with the weaving. But it all went into their pockets. Not a thread went into the looms, though they worked at their weaving as hard as ever. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The Emperor presently sent another trustworthy official to see how the work progressed and how soon it would be ready. The same thing happened to him that had happened to the minister. He looked and he looked, but as there was nothing to see in the looms he couldn't see anything. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Isn't it a beautiful piece of goods?" the swindlers asked him, as they displayed and described their imaginary pattern. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"I know I'm not stupid," the man thought, "so it must be that I'm unworthy of my good office. That's strange. I mustn't let anyone find it out, though." So he praised the material he did not see. He declared he was delighted with the beautiful colors and the exquisite pattern. To the Emperor he said, "It held me spellbound."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
All the town was talking of this splendid cloth, and the Emperor wanted to see it for himself while it was still in the looms. Attended by a band of chosen men, among whom were his two old trusted officials-the ones who had been to the weavers-he set out to see the two swindlers. He found them weaving with might and main, but without a thread in their looms. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Magnificent," said the two officials already duped. "Just look, Your Majesty, what colors! What a design!" They pointed to the empty looms, each supposing that the others could see the stuff. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"What's this?" thought the Emperor. "I can't see anything. This is terrible!<br />
Am I a fool? Am I unfit to be the Emperor? What a thing to happen to me of all people! - Oh! It's <em>very</em> pretty," he said. "It has my highest approval." And he nodded approbation at the empty loom. Nothing could make him say that he couldn't see anything. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
His whole retinue stared and stared. One saw no more than another, but they all joined the Emperor in exclaiming, "Oh! It's <em>very</em> pretty," and they advised him to wear clothes made of this wonderful cloth especially for the great procession he was soon to lead. "Magnificent! Excellent! Unsurpassed!" were bandied from mouth to mouth, and everyone did his best to seem well pleased. The Emperor gave each of the swindlers a cross to wear in his buttonhole, and the title of "Sir Weaver." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Before the procession the swindlers sat up all night and burned more than six candles, to show how busy they were finishing the Emperor's new clothes. They pretended to take the cloth off the loom. They made cuts in the air with huge scissors. And at last they said, "Now the Emperor's new clothes are ready for him." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Then the Emperor himself came with his noblest noblemen, and the swindlers each raised an arm as if they were holding something. They said, "These are the trousers, here's the coat, and this is the mantle," naming each garment. "All of them are as light as a spider web. One would almost think he had nothing on, but that's what makes them so fine." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Exactly," all the noblemen agreed, though they could see nothing, for there was nothing to see. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"If Your Imperial Majesty will condescend to take your clothes off," said the swindlers, "we will help you on with your new ones here in front of the long mirror." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The Emperor undressed, and the swindlers pretended to put his new clothes on him, one garment after another. They took him around the waist and seemed to be fastening something - that was his train-as the Emperor turned round and round before the looking glass.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"How well Your Majesty's new clothes look. Aren't they becoming!" He heard on all sides, "That pattern, so perfect! Those colors, so suitable! It is a magnificent outfit."<br />
Then the minister of public processions announced: "Your Majesty's canopy is waiting outside." </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Well, I'm supposed to be ready," the Emperor said, and turned again for one last look in the mirror. "It is a remarkable fit, isn't it?" He seemed to regard his costume with the greatest interest.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The noblemen who were to carry his train stooped low and reached for the floor as if they were picking up his mantle. Then they pretended to lift and hold it high. They didn't dare admit they had nothing to hold. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
So off went the Emperor in procession under his splendid canopy. Everyone in the streets and the windows said, "Oh, how fine are the Emperor's new clothes! Don't they fit him to perfection? And see his long train!" Nobody would confess that he couldn't see anything, for that would prove him either unfit for his position, or a fool. No costume the Emperor had worn before was ever such a complete success.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"But he hasn't got anything on," a little child said.</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Did you ever hear such innocent prattle?" said its father. And one person whispered to another what the child had said, "He hasn't anything on. A child says he hasn't anything on."</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"But he hasn't got anything on!" the whole town cried out at last. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
The Emperor shivered, for he suspected they were right. But he thought, "This procession has got to go on." So he walked more proudly than ever, as his noblemen held high the train that wasn't there at all.</blockquote>
People, like me, that don't see the circumstantial evidence the State claimed was there -- and such good evidence, so neatly fitting together -- are labeled as <br />
<ul>
<li>stupid, </li>
<li>unfit, </li>
<li>unreasonable, </li>
<li>closed-minded,</li>
<li>delusional,</li>
<li>crazy, </li>
<li>idiots</li>
</ul>
<div>
We've been called obscene and vulgar names, accused of being in love with Scott, of wanting to marry Scott, of loving a murderer, of hating the Rocha family. We've been vilified and threatened.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The State's case against Scott was a con game. In reality, the only 2 pieces of evidence presented by the State that "fit together" are:</div>
<ol>
<li>Scott went fishing from the Berkeley Marina to Brooks Island on the morning Laci went missing, and </li>
<li>The bodies washed ashore in the vicinity of his fishing route.</li>
</ol>
<div>
Were it not for those two circumstances, the State's case could not have conned the jury or the public into believing Scott was guilty. But those two circumstances did not happen in a vacuum. There were other circumstances that the State failed to present, for one reason or another. So the real list, the real evidence, looks something like this.</div>
<ol>
<li>Laci was on the computer the morning of Christmas Eve, 2002</li>
<li>Scott left to go fishing at the Berkeley Marina</li>
<li>Laci went for her walk with McKenzie</li>
<li>Laci came home from her walk</li>
<li>Laci saw the burglary across the street and Todd verbally threatened her</li>
<li>Diane Jackson saw the van, the 3 men, and the safe being removed from the Medina home</li>
<li>No one has ever reported seeing Laci after Todd verbally threatened her</li>
<li>The safe and other stolen items were found in Steve Todd's possession</li>
<li>Steve Todd confessed to the burglary</li>
<li>Donald Pearce admitted using his mother's white car to help with the burglary</li>
<li>The other men that Jackson saw have never been identified</li>
<li>The van Jackson saw has never been identified</li>
<li>The MPD immediately gave out Scott's alibi</li>
<li>Jan 2, the MPD publicized pictures of Scott's truck and boat</li>
<li>At least by Jan 5, the MPD publicized that Scott motored to the from the Berkeley Marina to Brooks Island, and even published a map of the area</li>
<li>Testimony from Drs. March and Jeanty explains that Conner died between December 29 and January 3</li>
<li>Testimony from Dr. Galloway estimates Laci could have lived until January 14</li>
<li>The shoreline in the area of Scott's fishing route has several places where a car could just pull up along the shoreline and heave a body into the water</li>
<li>The searches at the Bay were not 24/7; that shoreline was not under constant surveillance; many days there were no searches going on; the shoreline was just as accessible at night as it was during the day</li>
<li>The bodies washed ashore along that same shoreline</li>
</ol>
<div>
Therefore, Steve Todd, not Scott Peterson, is the last known person to see Laci alive. If Todd had nothing to do with Laci's disappearance, he needs to come forward and clear his name. If Laci was still alive after her encounter with him, where did she go? What did she do? He needs to be man enough to admit he saw Laci alive that morning so we can get on with figuring out what did happen to Laci. Otherwise, this circumstantial evidence case will some day be presented against him. </div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Among the many revelations in the recent A&E Docuseries, “The Murder of Laci Peterson,” was the appearance of several people who saw Laci walking in the neighborhood with her dog McKenzie on December 24 during the time period after Scott left home.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>This map identifies the people who appeared or were mentioned in the series and the locations of their sightings.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>It shows the 2+mile well-defined route from the time Laci left home until she returned around an hour later.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Sometime after Karen Servas returned McKenzi to the Peterson’s yard between 10:10 and 10:18 on December 24 and before Russell Graybill delivered the mail between 10:35 and 10:50, Laci opened the gate and took McKenzi for a walk.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>She did not head to La Loma park, but rather south on Covena.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>When Laci reached 211 Covena Avenue just north of Miller, she and McKenzi were seen by Homer Maldonado shortly after he and his wife left a gas station at Miller and Camellia.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>A few blocks later, in the area of the triangular park on La Loma Avenue at Santa Barbara, she and McKenzi were seen by Tony Freitas who was on his regular delivery route.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Continuing northwest on La Loma Avenue, she and McKenzi were seen by Frank Aguilar and his wife, Martha, who were driving toward downtown Modesto.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>One block further at the intersection of La Loma Avenue and Buena Vista, she and McKenzi were seen by Gene Pedrioli as they were getting ready to cross the street to Kewin Park.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>She apparently did not enter the park at that time but continued on to Del Rio Avenue where she turned south and then east on La Sombra Avenue.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Just as she turned back north on Buena Vista Avenue toward the park, she and McKenzi were seen by Vivian Mitchell whose husband Bill came to the window just in time to see the dog who was trying to go in the opposite direction.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">When Laci and McKenzie got back to La Loma Avenue, they apparently entered Kewin Park by the steps leading down from entrance at the corner.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>It would have been unusual for Laci to go into this area of the park because of the high concentration of homeless people who congregated in the adjacent Moose Park; but just at the intersection of the trail leading to the path east, there was a public bathroom which may explain her decision.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Apparently, she then continued on the path going east through Dry Creek park but after just a few minutes ran into a couple of homeless men who started harassing her and yelling at McKenzi; so she turned back toward the entrance of Kewin Park.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>It was at this time she was seen by Diana Campos who was taking a smoking break shortly before she was to start her work shift at the hospital.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>When Laci got back near the entrance, she must have taken the stairs leading up to Buena Vista Avenue.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Continuing on Buena Vista to Encina and then up to Edgebrook Drive, she would have been on her way home.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>When they reached Covena,<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>McKenzi may have pulled her toward the park entrance where Mike Chiavetta noticed him near the fence on the path that leads down into the park.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Chiavetta was concentrating on the dog, as his dog was off leash at the time, but he also noticed someone with the dog who fit Laci’s description.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Shortly after the Chiavetta sighting, Laci returned home.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Apparently she put McKenzi back in the yard and closed the gate and went inside the house where she changed clothes from black pants to tan.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>She may then have gone out through the front gate to get the mail when she noticed something suspicious going on at Medina’s.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>According to the Aponte tip and statement, Laci confronted Steve Todd and others as they were starting the burglary.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Exactly what happened to Laci after that is not known.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>She was never seen again until her body and the body of her son, Conner, were found in April on the shores of the San Francisco Bay.</span></div>

But when you stand a ways back, and aren't so emotionally invested in the guilty verdict, the evidence starts to make sense, and it says quite plainly, Scott is Innocent.<br />
<br />
Here's an article from <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4799900/Police-Laci-Peterson-murder-investigation-fire.html#ixzz4tKbM48Ba" target="_blank">Daily Mail</a> in the UK that is well worth the read. It highlights the Diane Jackson sighting of the van and 3 men in front of the Medina home on the morning of 12-24-02, and Ted Rowlands adamant assertion that the Medina burglary did not happen on the morning of the 26th, as claimed by Todd and Pearce and believed by the MPD, because he did the early show for his TV station and he was there, right in front of the Peterson house that morning starting at 5 am, keeping a very intense lookout for anyone he might be able to interview live for his show. <br />
<br />
The Daily Mail is a British tabloid, like the Enquirer is a US tabloid. But unlike so many of the Enquirer articles during the investigation and trial that only cited "sources close to the investigation," or "sources close to the family, " or something similar, never giving a name or face to the source, this articles does give names and faces to its sources. <br />

Or as radaronline put it, "the nation's most cold-hearted killer since OJ." In an article published just today, <a href="http://radaronline.com/celebrity-news/scott-peterson-talks-murdered-wife-laci-peterson-case/" target="_blank">Radaronline</a> reported excerpts from the Enquirer-produced documentary on Investigation Discovery channel.<br />
<br />
I also understand that investigators and DA's have confidence in their cases -- I don't think it would be too healthy if they were always second-guessing themselves. However, I think a great deal of objectivity and humility is essential in a job that has the authority to affect people's lives in a very profound way for a very long time. <br />
<br />
Mark Smith is a private investigator out of Tracy, CA. His website. Mark Smith Investigations, gives this summary of his investigative experience on the <a href="https://marksmithinvestigations.com/About.html" target="_blank">About Us</a> page, emphasis added.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Hello, my name is Mark Smith and I'm the owner of Mark Smith Investigations. I recently retired from a 28 year law enforcement career. I spent the first 10 years of my career as a municipal police officer and detective in the San Francisco Bay Area. I spent the last almost 18 years as a Criminal Investigator and Lieutenant of Investigators for the Stanislaus County District Attorney's Office. While working with the District Attorney I worked assignments in Homicide, Major Narcotics, Public Corruption, and Mortgage Fraud. I was most recently assigned to the FBI's San Joaquin Valley Mortgage Fraud Task Force and was cross-designated as a Special Deputy United States Marshal. I worked real estate and mortgage fraud cases enforcing both State and Federal law and helped to prosecute cases in both State and Federal Courts. <br />
<br />
While with the District Attorney I spent seven years as a Lieutenant supervising a staff of Criminal Investigators and civilian employees.<i><b> <u>I supervised the District Attorney Investigations staff that was assigned to the Scott Peterson murder trial and I coordinated much of the logistics for the trial.</u></b></i> Also while with the District Attorney I conducted numerous internal employee investigations for misconduct as well as numerous pre-employment background investigations. I also worked many criminal investigations involving government employees, including cases involving police officers and elected officials. </blockquote>
Mark Smith has been commenting on the A&E Murder of Laci Peterson Facebook page. To do so is his right. He is no longer with the DA's office and the gag order was lifted by Judge Delucchi in March 2005 after the sentencing.<br />
<br />
He frequently comments on the "lies" in the series, often attributing those lies to the Peterson family or the SPA group. He expects people to take his word for everything he says because he "was there." And he actually was there. However, he does not have a good command of the facts and corrects the alleged lies in the series with his own lies -- or should I more politely say, his own misinformation.<br />
<br />
One particular "lie" that he accused the SPA team of in last night's episode involved public knowledge of Scott's fishing route from the Berkeley Marina to Brooks Island. He argues that the MPD did put out information early on that Scott went to the Marina, but it was a long time before the media was aware of Scott's claim to have been by Brooks Island. Here is a major portion of his comment.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="588" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKpRm9LNBWj66lOD8cObPXxOxopjLL4NJ3mNa9FOSm7vvG_dYefQYSiigZRDEfRjPIT5Xsgk54ZznR7w9I4DOhHe_pfah2Q_kLGdBjp5i-so4hRCh9nsqisudEY96VzEyJg14ZbugrqXo/s640/mark+smith.jpg" width="392" /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
As a member of the SPA Team, I have collected a lot of information over the years, especially media coverage. I don't know exactly what Smith means by "a long time," as time is relevant, but there was media coverage of the MPD search of the Brooks Island on January 4, 2003. That was only 2 days after the MPD released photos of Scott's truck and boat and asked if anyone recalled seeing the truck or boat to call the MPD. <br />
<br />
How do I know there was media coverage of the search of Brooks Island on January 4? Because the Modesto Bee newspaper carried the story the next day, complete with pictures and an interview with Sgt. Ron Cloward, who was overseeing the search. It's most likely that, given the intense coverage of this case, the TV networks showed footage of the search and identified where the search was taking place as it was happening on the 4th, and the newspapers followed up with details in the next morning's edition on the 5th. The Modesto Bee certainly did. <br />
<br />
The Modesto Bee article not only specifically stated that Scott launched his boat at the Marina but that he also "went northwest and fished around Brooks Island." The Modesto Bee newspaper even included a map insert showing Brooks Island. <br />
<br />
Now you can determine for yourself whether 2 days is "a long time."<br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0px;">Russell
Graybill was scheduled to deliver mail to 500 homes (testimony) during the
course of his day. He had the kind of route that is called a park and loop. He
would park at a certain spot and then get out of his truck and deliver mail on
foot to all the houses that area.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>There
were scan points on a few mailboxes along his route to determine where he was
at certain times.</span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0px;">On December 24, 2002 he arrived at his first

deliver all these houses here, come back across Encina, go down Rowland, to the

That's the first relay. Then I would get in my vehicle and I would drive to
1520 Encina, and I would shut the vehicle off, get out, drop the mail at that
house. Drive around here, shut the vehicle off, drop the mail, drive around,
shut the vehicle off. Same thing at 1515. Then I would park the vehicle……………</span></div>

It's not that he was needed to prove that Laci was in the Bay, but to prove no one else put her in the Bay, only Scott could have put Laci in the Bay.<br />
<br />
The Prosecutors knew there was a likelihood that Scott's defense lawyer, Mark Geragos, would argue that someone else killed Laci and put her where it was widely publicized that he had been on the 24th -- fishing along a route from the Berkeley Marina to Brooks Island. So the killer(s) simply put her body there. <br />
<br />
The Prosecution also likely knew that the killer(s) wouldn't need a boat to put her in the area that would naturally incriminate Scott. Indeed, there are numerous places along the shoreline from the Berkeley Marina to Richmond that a car could have pulled up alongside the shoreline and simply dumped a body in. And there are places along that shoreline with very large riprap and other debris on which a body could get caught and be concealed from public view. Especially at the Albany Bulb. <br />
<br />
Where ever she washed ashore, whenever she washed ashore, the police, the media, and the public would conclude that Scott was guilty. <br />
<br />
How do I know they likely knew these things? Because I assume they had the intelligence to anticipate arguments from the defense and be sure they could counter them. So they would investigate the area themselves to see if there was another way Geragos could argue the bodies could have gotten into the Bay.<br />
<br />
Dr. Cheng's role was to show that the bodies came from Scott's fishing route, not somewhere along the shoreline. He first had to explain why it took so long for the bodies to wash ashore. He said it was a combination of strong winds on April 12, 2003 concurrent with a negative low tide that caused the bodies to dislodge and begin moving towards shore.<br />
<br />
In his words, <span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> "wow, quite a wind event during that day. I really recall in my own mind, you can see now the scientific records showed us now during that particular period of time, in the morning, or starting from the midnight of the midnight April 11th, or early morning of April 12th, you can see wind exceeded 40 knots. 40 knots, wind exceeded. Also a sustained wind for long period of time, subsided slightly, but still continued on for another good twelve, eighteen hours with wind average around twenty knots per hour. So that is quite a magnitude of wind. And during that period of time, there was occurrence of a very low tide right after noon of April 12th." </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Let's look at the 3 elements of his argument for this "wind event" on April 11-12:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"></span>Wind exceeded 40 knots</li>
<li>Sustained winds of average 20 knots for 12-18 hours</li>
<li>Concurrent with the very low tide right after noon of April 12</li>
</ul>
<div>
I fact-checked Dr. Cheng's claims by<a href="http://pwc-sii.com/Research/conner/pics/survey.pdf" target="_blank"> surveying 11 area weather stations</a> that measured wind and had their data online. I also copied a graph of the tide on April 12 from the NOAA Richmond station to compare with the wind data. I started with the wind stations closest to where the bodies washed ashore and spread out from there. I surveyed: </div>
<ol>
<li>the NOAA Richmond Station, </li>
<li>the UC Richmond Station, </li>
<li>the East Bay Municipal Utility District station on Point Isabel, </li>
<li>the Oakland North RAWS (Remote Automated Weather Station),</li>
<li>the wind station at the Berkeley Marina,</li>
<li>the wind station on Angel Island,</li>
<li>the wind station on Treasure Island,</li>
<li>the Oakland South RAWS (Remote Automated Weather Station),</li>
<li>the NOAA Alameda station,</li>
<li>the wind station on Crown Beach in Alameda,</li>
<li>the Oakland Airport weather station</li>
</ol>
Not a single one of these 11 stations verified Cheng's claims. Why was it necessary to exaggerate and misrepresent that "wind event" on April 12? Because the truth didn't cut the mustard. <br />

<br />
A&E Network will premiere the new six-episode, limited documentary series, THE MURDER OF LACI PETERSON showcasing new interviews with Scott Peterson himself from prison. The series explores the infamous Scott Peterson trial, the case that destroyed a family, gripped a nation and defined an era, as a vehicle for understanding America's criminal justice system and the ways in which outside influences can affect that system. "The Murder of Laci Peterson" is set to premiere Tuesday, August 15 at 10PM ET/PT on A&E.<br />
<br />
"A&E is in the business of finding and uncovering the real stories behind some of the most impactful cultural moments that our audience hasn't heard and 'The Murder of Laci Peterson' does exactly that," said Elaine Frontain Bryant, Executive Vice President and Head of Programming, A&E Network."The media's obsession with the Scott Peterson trial was unlike anything seen before. This new series will cut through the mass hysteria that has plagued and distorted the reporting of this story to deliver, for the first time, a definitive factual account by those who lived and breathed it every day."<br />
<br />
The mystery of Laci Peterson's disappearance on Christmas Eve 2002 captivated the nation. Eight months pregnant, she vanished without a trace. Her body and that of her unborn child, Conner, appeared four months later on the shores of the San Francisco Bay causing a media frenzy on both a local and national level. To this day, no one knows exactly when, where or how she died, only that her husband Scott Peterson was convicted of murder and sentenced to death, despite the absence of DNA evidence or eyewitness testimony. Scott Peterson's conviction was less a tribute to the efficacy of the legal system than it was a case study for the overwhelming power of modern media to deliver the facts of news in a way that creates irresistible tabloid fodder.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: medium;"><b>The tests don't lie</b></span></div>
<div align="left">
So much is made, by those who believe Scott is guilty, that Scott lied so much how can anyone believe anything that he says. The truth of the matter is, we don't have to believe anything Scott says. We don't have to believe any one that has a vested interest in this case. We don't have to determine who is telling the truth and who isn't. We don't have to decide whose motives are pure and whose bias is objective.<br /><br /> Why? Because the forensic testing speaks loud and clear, and requires no interpretation, has no ulterior motive, and cannot be misunderstood. <br /><br /> It is not always the case that the forensic testing is so conclusive -- in some cases it still is very much subject to interpretation. <br /><br /> But, in this case, it is absolutely reliable. <br /><br /> Why? Because all of it contradicted the State's case. It was all collected by the State, controlled by the State, tested by the State, and reported by the State. <br /><br /> And all the tests came back NEGATIVE. <br /><br /> At every step of the way, those participating in its collection, testing, and reporting had a vested interest in the test results. <br /><br /> And all the tests came back NEGATIVE. <br /><br /> We don't have to take Scott's word for where he was on Dec. 24, and what time he was there, because he left a paper trail that proves, without bias, where he was and when. <br /><br /> We don't have to take Scott's word for why the mops and bucket were outside the door, or why anyone would be mopping the floor the day after the maid mopped, because the forensic testing proves with absolute certainty that the mops and bucket were not used to clean up a crime scene. That makes what they were used for totally irrelevant.<br /><br /> We don't have to understand why Scott washed his clothes or why and how they got wet, because the forensic testing proves with absolute certainty that he did not commit the crimes he was convicted of wearing those clothes. That makes everything else about the clothes totally irrelevant. <br /><br /> We don't have to understand why Scott was vacuuming on Dec 25, because the forensic testing proves with absolute certainty that the vacuum cleaner was not used to clean up a crime scene. That makes everything else about the vacuum cleaner or the vacuuming totally irrelevant. <br /><br /> We don't have to know where the pliers came from or how the hair got into them, because the forensic testing proves with absolute certainty that the pliers were not used to cut the chicken wire and had not been used recently enough to be involved in the crime. That makes everything else about the pliers and the hair totally irrelevant.<br /><br /> Everything that the state presented as evidence against Scott was inconclusive, subject to a range of interpretation; everything that was tested was absolutely conclusive that Scott did not murder Laci. <br /><br /> What was tested? Everything in that house that had the least hint of suspicion -- blood stains that they had to mark their location with sticky-notes because they were so small they wouldn't show up in the pictures. Everything in the pickup that had the least hint of suspicion. Everything in the boat that had the least hint of suspicion. <br /><br /> Besides collecting items for testing, cadaver dogs and scent dogs were used. Their results were inconclusive; most of it was not even allowed in as testimony it was so inconclusive. What was let in was contradicted with other dog testimony. <br /><br /> The State said Laci and Conner washed ashore, yet their own expert could not get them back to the same place, and the best dive and sonar teams could not find any evidence they had been where they should have been. So what difference does it make why Scott went fishing, or if he should have gone fishing, or what time of day he went fishing, or if he told some he was fishing and some he was golfing, because the State's own experts and other witnesses proved with a preponderance of the evidence that Laci was not where Scott was fishing. <br /><br /> So, when it gets right down to it, who cares whether Anne is telling the truth or Scott; whether Amber is telling the truth or Scott -- because the forensic testing proves that Scott did not murder Laci in that house or transport her in that pickup or boat, or dump her in the bay. The entirety of the forensic testing proves absolutely that Scott did not murder Laci in that house or transport her in that pickup or boat; and the preponderance of the evidence provided by the State itself proves that Scott did not dump Laci in the bay on that fishing trip. <br /><br /> All the accusations Anne Bird makes in her book, and all the heretofore secret documents that Catherine Crier cites in her book are meaningless as proof -- and no claims that Scott did this or that, or that his mother did this or that, can dispute the absolute certainty of the forensic testing. <br /><br /> Tell me why I should not place absolute trust in the forensic testing in this case to declare that Scott is 100% factually innocent of the crimes he has been convicted of. Give me one good reason why I should favor gossip over forensic testing.<b></b><i></i><u></u><sub></sub><sup></sup><strike></strike></div>

I sympathize with what Richelle Nice went through during her pregnancy, and totally understand her attachment to baby Conner. But she was wrong to conceal that information during the voir dire process.<br />
<br />
Just how serious is it when a juror lies during the voir dire process? This article provides some good information. <br />

It is spelled out in the Sixth Amendment, which guarantees an impartial jury. It is protected by safeguards on both sides of the justice system, such as peremptory challenges, challenges for cause and voir dire. It has been upheld by the Supreme Court as a fundamental right.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">So what happens when, after a conviction, it is revealed that a juror concealed material facts or lied about his or her past?</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">As early as 1933, Justice Benjamin Cardozo, writing for a unanimous Supreme Court, declared that a juror who lies his way into the jury room is not a juror at all. “If the answers to the questions are willfully evasive or knowingly untrue, the talesman, when accepted, is a juror in name only.” Cardozo continued, “His relation to the court and to the parties is tainted in its origin; it is a mere pretense and sham.”</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">California courts have also recognized the fundamental importance of juror honesty. One of the first California cases to consider a juror’s concealment of material facts is People v. Blackwell, decided in 1987. Blackwell, who was charged with killing her husband, presented a battered-wife defense based on a long history of abuse at the hands of her alcoholic husband. During voir dire, Juror R denied any experience with alcoholism or physical abuse in her family. After Blackwell’s conviction, it came to light that Juror R had been abused by a former husband who became violent when drinking and that she believed the defendant should have handled the problem without resorting to violence.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">Blackwell’s new trial motion argued that Juror R’s failure to reveal her prior experiences proved bias. The 1st District Court of Appeal agreed and reversed Blackwell’s conviction, finding that the juror was intentionally dishonest when she falsely answered a specific, unambiguous question.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">The other seminal case was decided by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 1998. In Dyer v. Calderon, the federal appeals court reversed the defendant’s four murder convictions because a juror had falsely answered that she and her relatives had never been victims of a crime or accused of a crime. It was later discovered that the juror’s brother had been shot and killed six years earlier and that her husband had been arrested and jailed on a rape charge before trial.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">Writing for the court, Judge Alex Kozinski observed that “an irregularity in the selection of those who will sit in judgment casts a very long shadow. A perjured juror is as incompatible with the truth-seeking process as a judge who accepts bribes.” The 9th Circuit held that even though the juror had claimed she was fair, her bias should be implied from her intentional concealment. As Kozinski explained, “the individual who lies in order to improve his chances of serving has too much of a stake in the matter to be considered indifferent. Whether the desire to serve is motivated by an overactive sense of civic duty, by a desire to avenge past wrongs, by the hope of writing a memoir or by some other unknown motive, this excess of zeal introduces the kind of unpredictable factor into the jury room that the doctrine of implied bias is meant to keep out.”</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">Two recent California decisions addressed similar claims of juror misconduct, with two very different results.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">In In re Boyette (2013), the state Supreme Court upheld a conviction in a death penalty double-murder case in which a juror who had denied having any criminal history was later found to have suffered several criminal convictions.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">The juror in Boyette stated in a juror questionnaire that he had never been arrested or convicted of a crime. The juror presided as foreperson of the jury that convicted Boyette and sentenced him to death. On a habeas hearing, the defense discovered that the juror had been convicted of a felony 30 years earlier, had been arrested for robbery 20 years earlier and had served six months in jail on a drunk driving case 10 years before the trial.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">Since the juror’s misconduct was discovered years after the conviction, and no findings on this issue had been made by the trial judge, the Supreme Court assigned a referee to hold a hearing to determine if the juror had deliberately lied. That referee found that the juror believed his 30-year-old conviction had been expunged and that he misunderstood the question as to the other arrests and conviction and thus did not deliberately conceal his criminal history. The Supreme Court, which called the juror’s claims “dubious,” said it was bound by the referee’s findings and denied relief.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">Given the facts of Boyette, I cannot fathom how the referee found excusable the juror’s failure to disclose his criminal history. There are few questions more straightforward than “Have you ever been accused of a crime?” It is incredible to believe that any person with a long and memorable history of arrests would fail to mention any of these accusations. Advocates trying to reverse convictions based on juror misrepresentations should not be dissuaded by Boyette, however, as that case is dependent on the referee’s incredulous findings.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">People v. Pizarro (2013) resulted in a far different outcome In Pizarro, a sexual assault and murder case that had been tried twice before,Juror No. 9 failed to reveal several criminal convictions on voir direand had conducted Internet research, reading an appellate decision about the defendant’s two prior trials for the same charge, which had been reversed by the courts. The trial court had denied the defendant’s new trial motion. However, the Court of Appeal reversed, finding that “investigating the case on his own made a mockery of the trial process.” The Court concluded, “We view that juror’s behavior in this case as criminal.”</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">Where Boyette stumbles, Pizarro succeeds by acknowledging the central role juror honesty plays in our fundamental rights. The Court of Appeal rejected the prosecution’s contention, based on People v. Carpenter, that the evidence of Pizarro’s guilt was “truly overwhelming” and therefore any juror misconduct was harmless. In Carpenter, the Supreme Court held that juror misconduct claims of extraneous influence were subject to a harmless error analysis.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">“Actual bias does not require a showing of prejudice before a verdict will be set aside, because a defendant is entitled to 12 unbiased jurors, not 11, regardless of whether an unbiased jury would have reached the same verdict,” the court wrote.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">In other words, using a harmless error analysis to test juror misconduct and allowing a verdict to stand because of overwhelming evidence of guilt is inconsistent with the guarantee that jurors be impartial and free of bias.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">The Court of Appeal urged the Supreme Court to reconsider its Carpenter decision. “We believe that harmless error analysis should not apply to cases of juror bias, whether actual bias or inherent bias,” the court wrote. “The test of whether a juror was influenced by the extraneous information should not be limited to the situation where it caused the juror to cast a different vote than the juror would have cast if the extraneous material had not been considered.</span><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Trebuchet MS', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;">When a juror lies on voir dire examination, the very heart of our justice system is undermined.

Two of the excuses given are that no one would pawn such a valuable watch for just $20 and no one would pawn stolen goods, knowing they had to give photo ID and be fingerprinted.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A recent case in the Naples News shows just how naive these excuses are. </span><br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 18.2px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Brad Wilson knew what he was doing when he stole a pair of earrings and a bag full of vintage charms and necklaces from a Naples high rise in March.</span></span></span></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 18.2px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The 27-year-old Fort Myers man later would tell police he pawned the stolen jewelry to fund his drug habit. A month later, Wilson was arrested by St. Petersburg police for possession of the synthetic drug "spice."</span></span></span></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 18.2px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">One of the burglary victims, Jane Moerschel, had to buy back her stolen property from pawn shops — spending $3,046 for her own belongings.</span></span></span></blockquote>
<br />
According to the article, Moerchel's stolen property was worth $40,000, for which Wilson got $3,046. So Wilson pawned the stolen goods for 8 cents on the dollar. And he used an ID and was fingerprinted. <br />
<br />
Unless the local police department is vigilant in comparing stolen goods to lists of new inventory at the pawn shops, there is little risk to the pawn dealers. Moershel reported:<span style="font-family: inherit;"> <span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; line-height: 18.2px;">"I asked both places why they accepted stolen jewelry and the one said 'If we don't get it, another pawnshop will.'"</span></span><br />

Tunnel vision is not a rogue cop breaking all the rules just because he can. Tunnel vision is systemic, meaning it touches all people involved in criminal investigations and prosecutions -- cops, DA's, lab technicians, and even witnesses.<div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
“A presentation given by Russ Grabb, a member of the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), using a football analogy illustrates what
individual officers must be trained to do.
The caption beside the slides instructs the police that good case
management involves ‘Staying in your lanes,’ otherwise, if everyone follows ‘the
football’ (one targeted suspect), the real action might shift to another part
of the field where no players are focused.
Follow all leads and resist the pressure to focus too narrowly on one
suspect too early in an investigation with the result that other suspects are
ignored or ‘hard’ police work is never done to discover other potential
suspects. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On
paper this is compellingly clear.
However, it may underplay the fact that in wrongful conviction cases,
unlike some other types of major cases, there may be few suspects and an
enormous pressure to convict. Witness
interviews, surveillance, media releases, dog handler (possibly), and
neighbourhood inquiries will inevitable focus down on the likeliest of
suspects. Building ‘the’ case becomes
paramount. If the case is not solved in
the period immediately following the crime (i.e. the blood drenched butler),
the task becomes to put the person you suspect into the frame and fit the facts
as best you can.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Beare goes on to say:
“However, even putting an emphasis on eliminating the use of these
procedures still does not reach deep enough in order to identify the systemic
reasons <i>why</i> the police, usually
together with other segments of the justice system, have been found to be
repeatedly guilty of:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*blindly relying on eyewitness accounts <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*holding back of exculpatory evidence<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*perjury<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*planting/tampering with evidence<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*police notebook collusion<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*reliance on ludicrous jailhouse informants<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*coercion of witnesses/coercion of suspects<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*collusion with forensic ‘experts’ or merely faulty science<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
These easily identified failings may operate independent of
the very best intentions of any individual officer. Rather than separate factors that result in a
wrongful conviction, winning/game theory, police culture, media relations,
promotions, political interference, and funding issues are all interwoven and
result in tunnel vision. Hence ‘tunnel
vision’ is not one concept to be avoided but rather a term used much too
loosely to apply to a complex network of systemic, structural, <i>and</i>, on occasion, individual factors. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The author continues:
As Justice Marc Rosenberg said in reference to Thomas Sophonow, ‘Wrongful
convictions are caused by underlying systemic problems that won’t be fixed as
long as the miscarriage of justice is treated as an isolated event . . .
wrongful convictions don’t occur in a vacuum.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Beare argues that "we maintain and support a system that virtually guarantees
a reoccurrence of innocent people spending time in jail.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The fault lies with the gravity of the legal system that
thrives on an impenetrable and false ‘justice script.’ With all of the weight of tradition elite
social status, and political power, this script sustains and is sustained by
three fallacies:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*that the ‘assumption of innocence’ has a currency that can
be depended upon to work to the protection of the accused;<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*that justice officials, from police through all of the
performers for the duration of the court process are concerned with truth –
telling it, allowing it to be told, responding to it;<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
*that the ‘adversarial’ nature of the courts tempers the
power of the state against the accused.<o:p></o:p></div>

Scott's Timeline</h2>
<div class="paragraph" style="background-color: #0f0f0f; color: #aaaaaa; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px !important; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; padding: 0.5em 0px;">
Scott was asked about the events of December 24th many times. This timeline is assembled from 18 different sources. These sources include a videotaped interview with the police, an interview with a Department of Justice agent, wire tapped phone calls where Scott did not know he was being recorded, conversations with police officers, a media interview and casual conversation.<br />
<br />
This was not a rote story he told over and over from beginning to end. He told various people different pieces of what he did on December 24th and all those pieces fit together perfectly with no contradiction. His story never changed, and over time, many of his statements were proven to be true. Not one was shown to be a lie.<br />
<br />
Not only does this timeline show how truthful Scott was about the events of December 23rd and 24th, but it shows the lack of opportunity he had to commit the crime he's been convicted of. </div>

Since it has been such a long time since these were published, and many may have forgotten about them and others haven't read them at all, we thought we'd post them here serially.<br />
<br />
The very first featured fact is titled "Opportunity." <br />
<br />
"<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 22.5px;">We cannot address all the other facts of this case until we first address where Laci and Conner's bodies were found. No matter how many facts we feature that point toward Scott's innocence, the question will always be asked, 'But what about the bodies?' . . . So we submit to you: </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 22.5px;">It is a fact that someone other than Scott had the opportunity to put Laci and baby Conner's bodies where they were."</span><br />
