does anyone else here change their minds often about different aspects of the case? just curious cuz i have so many times
jurorthirteen // May 8, 2008 at 6:42 pm

On the Psycic side of the FSP site, people kept talking about seeing the number 1… several times. What’s so curious to me about that is that I see triple 1’s all the time…. on my clocks, look up and it just happens to be on 1 minute 11 seconds…etc…

I’m not usually into that type of stuff, too much, but it’s been going on with me several times a week for several months now
rescueapet // May 8, 2008 at 6:45 pm

I don’t think I change my way of thinking much as far as her being gone. As I said, I could very well believe that he started out by wanting to scare her and dragged her out of that house. Alive. With intentions of showing her how things were going to be and she’d better get used to it. Then, maybe things were seriously wrong. I don’t know.

I have no trouble not believing she just up and left, falling off the face of the earth. Blame that on my perception of what I’ve learned in the media, or my gut feeling. Leaving those two little people on a whim is just not easy for me to comprehend, and I cannot, honestly, say I believe she did. I have no trouble believing, either, that she loved her adopted sons also.

I-55

Route 171 (First Avenue)
(Now, First Avenue certainly can be connected to the number 1)

Harlem Avenue (Route 43)

I firmly believe there are many areas there that could have been used in the course of a crime! 15 miles NORTH of Bolingbrook.
feistygurl // May 8, 2008 at 6:52 pm

i agree she loved the 4 kids. you can see it. & the only way i can see her leaving would be to get dp (in jail) before he got her(like he did kathleen.) still be awfully damn hard to leave the kids. but if someone said hey we are gonna get ya out & then nail him & then you will lead a happy normal life, no charges will be filed against you i might consider it. but as time goes by i think less of this theory for sure but it still pops in my mind every now & then.

rescueapet // May 8, 2008 at 7:30 pm

Glad to heard about your pets, facsmiley.

I’m not a “believer” in the psychic stuff either. I do believe sometimes people can get a premonition about something, something powerful, but not see things that have absolutely no bearing on their lives.

My mother, when we were kids, had just gotten us off to school one morning. She said she laid down on the couch for a few minutes, but then got up to go look out the window. She saw a woman standing outside the window, dressed all in black, looking back at her. She said the woman looked just like her aunt. Turns out, her aunt died, and it was precisely at the time she looked out the window and “saw her.”. Now, that’s weird.

But, that’s as far as my psychic beliefs go.
lavandadolce // May 8, 2008 at 7:50 pm

I’ve had too many situations in my life for me to not believe in “psychic” phenomonal events. I don’t believe in tarot cards, palm reading, etc…but I do believe sometimes people may have the ability to have situations in their lives that “someone” from beyond, or above, has communicated with them in some means that mentally one can grasp the thought..or psyche. I was told years ago…if someone advertises and charges you for a psychic reading…they’re not true psychics. Those that have the ability, do not charge. I’ve kind of stuck with that belief, too.

Ok, don’t laugh. I used to sleep with the radio on all night long on soothing music sounds…not talk radio or pop music, etc…sort of like calming “indian sounds” as it really helped me to fall asleep. One morning I woke up and I remember calling my mother in law on the phone and telling her that “last night as I was listening to my radio, the broadcast was interupted to state that Andy Gibb had passed away by a stomach ailment” She and I thought…how sad. He is so young. Anyhow…I went to work and mentioned it…keep in mind, it was not when Andy Gibb was prime in his career or anything. Anyhow…nobody had ever heard of this news broadcast. It was not until one full week later it was all over the news. Andy Gibb had passed away the night before. Exactly one week AFTER I “heard it”. Anyhow…I have had this happen many times with different types of scenario’s. Too weird. (I also knew the exact moment that my brother was attempting suicide by a drug overdose. There was no forewarnings and no reason to ever suspect he would do something like that. Luckily, he was found and was unconcsious and survived. )

I sure have.

I really wanted her to be “hiding out” until Drew was arrested for Kathleen’s murder.

As more time passes, I don’t think it’s possible that she’s alive because *someone* would know where she was. Someone said she’d “run away with Tom Morphey” but since we don’t know where he is, maybe they are in the same place. Who knows …
noway406 // May 8, 2008 at 8:08 pm

And I don’t think that the ISP and FBI would allow all the searches and fundraising to continue if she was alive. IMO
rescueapet // May 8, 2008 at 8:13 pm

lavandadolce - I don’t dare laugh. It seems like you had the same kind of “reception” my mom did, but yours is unique, I guess, because Gibb had no association or meaning in your life. At least, I assume not. So, getting a premonition like this isn’t that far fetched.

I just have a hard time getting convinced about the many psychics out there that talk to “dead people,” and it seems like they’re cropping up more and more.

I do remember, though, hearing my late sister-in-law talking about a neighbor/friend of hers and my BIL that used to be able to sit down with people and tell them things she saw about them “in the future.” She told my SIL things that did, in fact come to pass.
rescueapet // May 8, 2008 at 8:16 pm

Well, on to another couple of things I’ve been wondering.

When LE was doing their water searches in the Canal, and they spent a good week or two there searching in one particular area, I wonder if they ever did recover anything. Not, of course, SP’s body, but her missing passport, or her phone. Never heard a word mentioned one way or the other whether their efforts were fruitful. You never know.

I’m sure they have a lot of information that nobody will know…not until they’re ready. By the way, in the video of the lead investigator of the ISP…he clearly mentioned there was a things stated by the media that is “false”…he would not state what it was…but the way he stated it I got the feeling they have a lot more to go on than what we are privy to know. I can see if I can find the video to post.
facsmiley // May 8, 2008 at 8:21 pm

LOL, I can totally imagine my dog stuck in the engine of a car.

As for changing your mind, I’ve looked at this from lots of ways and considered different scenarios. But when I think of the big picture and how Stacy was described as coming from this crappy family background and how she seemed to be the one who got away from it and was determined to have the family, the kids the house, how she called her dad every day even though he wasn’t the greatest dad ever, how she hung on to her sister and kept her close, how she gathered family together on holidays and became to be this sort of stabilizing factor, when I look at that picture of her with Laci in the playpen, I just can’t imagine her, ever, under any circumstance voluntarily leaving those kids, her sister, her dad or grandfather.

And I don’t mean to say that she’s “Saint Stacy”, just that she seemed to be the one member of a pretty disfunctional family who had beaten the odds and had set out on creating a really good future for herself and her family. Even though it meant latching on to this guy who, in the end, was probably the worst guy she could have latched on to.

noway406 // May 8, 2008 at 8:22 pm

Rescueapet, LE seems to know how to keep their collective mouths closed! That’s why we don’t hear what was found or what was not found.
lavandadolce // May 8, 2008 at 8:28 pm

According to the reports, these are the three that testified at the Grand Jury today:
Savio’s sister, Sue Doman, testified for about an hour as did Lisa Ward, the daughter of Peterson’s second wife, Vicki Connolly.

A third witness was Steve Maniaci, who was dating Savio at the time of her death, Doman said.
rescueapet // May 8, 2008 at 8:28 pm

Oh, thanks for the reminder, lavanda. Yes, daily would be good.

****************

Yeah, noway, LE does know how to keep quiet. I think that’s why Brodsky keeps going on his fishing expeditions. He throws stuff out there, like the thing with the cadaver dogs, and “asks” if anyone has heard something he hasn’t. I’ve gotten the impression he does that more than ever, since he’s the last one to know anything these days.
lavandadolce // May 8, 2008 at 8:30 pm

Update:
Chicago police said the remains were found at 1453 N. Dearborn St., which is an active construction site on Chicago’s Near North Side. Shortly after the bone was found about 2 p.m. Wednesday, construction crews turned it over to authorities, police said.

John Mirabelli, a Chicago police spokesman, said an investigation is under way. Officials said it was possible the site where the remains were found was once a cemetery.
noway406 // May 8, 2008 at 8:31 pm

Has it been verified that it was JB on the LP site?

It is interesting that near each event meant to raise awareness that Stacy is missing, JB or DP come up with something to distract the public.

It’s never about Stacy or how their Internet searches are going.
jurorthirteen // May 8, 2008 at 8:32 pm

Should this go to trial it will be facinating to find out what all of these people have to say…. and what LE has found.

I had read somewhere that Grand Jury could go on until next Nov. They had originally had said 4 months… about 6 months ago.

Yes, juror, I read the same thing. They had the option to extend to November. You never really know someone, so they didn’t know what they’d find out about Drew Peterson.

I have read that once he is charged, it’s 120 days or less for trial. Wouldn’t be too good to charge him just for the sake of doing so, and still be trying to figure out evidence.

Frick- I accidentally posted this originally on the May 5th “Your Thread”. So, here I am, posting it again where I meant to post it the first time… DOH!

Just a thought from an insomniac ol’ Jewish mum in AK:

There seems to be a bit of conflict regarding Tom Morphey’s whereabouts. He is either:

A. In residential treatment for mental health issues (and/or, according to JB and DiP, drug/alcohol addictions)…

*OR*

B. He is in the protective custody of LE/the FBI, because he is potentially a valuable witness for the prosecution of DiP.

Now, that’s just a wee bit confusing, ain’t it?

Well, no, it’s not really- if you take a step back and look at the whole enchilada, instead of just the beans and rice.

It was reported that Tom tried to kill himself a day after he “helped” DiP with the barrel and cell phone stuff, right?

So, it would stand to reason that Tom would be receiving mandatory mental health care for his suicidal depression/anxiety/PTSD/etc. immediately (which is required in AK for anyone who tries to commit suicide, but ends up at hospital instead- not sure about IL law, sorry!)- right?

And, if LE/the FBI considers Tom to be a valuable prosecution witness, then would they not want to see that he gets the care and help he needs, so that he will be less suicidally traumatized, and more emotionally stable, if and when he is required to give testimony before the Grand Jury, and/or at the criminal trial?

Also, even if Tom is in a “lock down” or medium security mental health hospital, he WOULD be able to contact his loved ones, whilst still remaining safely ensconced and protected by LE as he heals.

Taking this all in, it is my belief that BOTH of these statements are TRUE:

1. Tom Morphey IS in residential treatment for his depression and anxiety about whatever occurred the night he was “helping” his step-brother DiP.

*AND*

2. Tom Morphey IS in the “protective custody” of LE, because whilst he is getting the help he needs, he is also being protected/guarded/monitored as a potentially very valuable witness by LE/the FBI.

And that’s all I have to say about that right now…
amandareckonwith // May 9, 2008 at 7:01 am

My guess is that Tom is both in rehab AND protective custody.

Maybe in a facility. They don’t let you out of those.
amandareckonwith // May 9, 2008 at 7:02 am

I was just over at IS, catching up. The BIL of Tina, SP dead sis, posts there.
Which made me think of Tina’s kids.
Which made me think of Stacy’s & Kathleen’s kids.

And Mothers Day.
And making stuff at school for Mommy.

And how sad those Bbk kids have to be each time they step out the front door and have to look at Sharons home.

And how much I hate her for putting another stab into their hearts.

And how the people who are building up the shrine rationalize the action because of their hate for Drew.

And I am sadder than ever for the little ones. I love little kids.
What happens to them now shapes what happens to them later.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 7:54 am

Yeah, it’s hard on the kids. Imagine how it was for Tom & Kris to have to go the grave site of their dead mother, on holidays, maybe her birthday, Mother’s Day. Assuming Bbk’s father kept the memory of their mother alive and honored it with letting them pay their respects to her.

Imagine how hard it was on those same boys to get the stunning news that their mother “ran off with another man,” out of the mouth of their loving father.

I am sorry, but you have so much rage and anger directed and focused at a group of people that had nothing to do with the loss of those mothers, that it’s just incredible to try and justify.

Venting and raging at them by saying they are stabbing into the hearts of the children is just mind boggling. I am so at a loss to figure out how you can think the way you do.

Sorry, but they are just as angry, sad and bewildered, as you are about the loss of four children’s mother. Just because you can’t agree with the way they direct their anger is no reason to vent your rage at them, in my opinion.

They didn’t kill Kathleen Savio or harm Stacy Peterson. Maybe Mr. Bbk did, maybe he didn’t. But it sure looks like he did, and that’s enough to make anyone want to spit nails!
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 8:47 am

amanda i so totaly agree with you. to me they are selfish ppl. they want to get to dp anyway they can. & so what if it gets the kids. poor kids in the middle. makes ya wonder if these ppl were so spoiled got what they wanted when they wanted it. they think the process is moving slow & that they can get him to crack. why dont they let le do their job & leave the kids out of it. if it werent for the kids id be the 1st to say get him anyway you can. but i am not a selfish person. & i have always put children 1st & not just my own. i wish i could sit down one on one with sharon drill it in her head cuz it doesnt take a genius to figure out its flat out WRONG. shes an adult.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 8:54 am

Yeah, well, they do want to get to DP anyway they can, you’re probably right about that. They think he’s responsible for killing two women, so that would be a valid idea.

But, as much as they’re out to get DP, DP and his lawyer are out to get anyone that cared for either woman, their families, friends, supporters. So, I guess it all evens itself out.

As to leaving the kids out of it, do you think it was a sickening idea to parade them around on national tv in a staged video, solely for the purpose of using them to make their father look good? That’s selfish, isn’t it?

I wish you could sit down and drill that into DPeterson’s head. Leave your kids out of your staged videos. That is just plain WRONG to use them for your purpose.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:01 am

Just read the article by Hosey that Peterson’s attorney is shifting focus to KS’s boyfriend, since he just appeared before the GJ. Says he should lawyer up and take the Fifth.

This guy hasn’t uttered a word in public, hasn’t shown his face, hasn’t been quoted anywhere, and solely because he was compelled to appear before the GJ by subpoena, Brodsky is now trying to make him look like he should be looked at as a suspect in her homicide. Heaven help anyone that knew and loved either woman. They’re toast when it comes to the Peterson/Brodsky men. Just plain toast.
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:05 am

i think dp is just plain wrong also. but i have no ambition to talk with him. just because i get on sharon & the army does not mean i am for dp. then it turns into who is more wrong. who gives a crap. like i said getting him would be a valid idea but i myself would put the children 1st no matter what. yes stacy would be happy that ppl are looking for her ect. but being the loving mother i think she was i dont think shed be calling sharon her best friend now. i certainly know i wouldnt
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:07 am

well of course dp wants the heat off himself
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:10 am

rescue that reminds me why do you think mr cales has never said anything negative about dp & vice versa. i have always wondered this
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:18 am

feisty - because not everyone is the same and comes out swinging. Maybe Mr. Cales suffers within himself, and he doesn’t get personal satisfaction voicing his dislike for his son-in-law. I don’t know the answer to that.

I guess you have to be in a person’s shoes to know what it must be like to lose a child. Something none of us ever want to have to face, nor should we. That is just not right to lose your child, by any means or ways. Period!!!!!! Some people use anger to vent their rage about losing a loved one, maybe even blaming their God. Some retreat into darkness. That takes some serious soul searching to come up with an answer for that.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:24 am

As to the neighbor, and the plant people, and the supporters, well, there’s plenty of finger pointing that can be done, yes. But, this whole scenario is not the norm either. It’s not every day you see the story unfold regarding the relationship of a 17 year old teenager, who winds up marrying a man over 30 years older, bears two children, adopts his two after their mother died, and winds up missing and presumed dead. This is not what your average girl-next-door story, is it?

I think it’s safe to say Peterson perks up when young, young women are in the mix. I hope it’ll all get straightened out some time or other. I certainly wouldn’t want to see him be imprisoned for crimes he didn’t commit. That wouldn’t be serving justice.

But, then again, I don’t like anything about him, and I can very well accept the ideas that he had ways and means to do the destruction he is accused of doing.
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:25 am

oh i m sure mr cales suffers. so why do you think dp has never said a negative thing about mr cales? when he has stated lots of neggative stuff about everyone else.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:32 am

That’s easy, feisty. Because Mr. Cales hasn’t said a word against him. That would be silly for Peterson to cast the first stone and stir up a frenzie about his reputation. After all, that is his missing wife’s father. Would that endear people to Peterson if he started hacking away at him, solely because he’s his wife’s father, and for no other reason? How would Peterson justify saying something negative against him in public, when, in all reality, almost no one has hard anything about the man. We have, because we’re local. But, he’s never been on tv or in national newspapers.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:33 am

oops, no one has “heard” anything about the man.
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:37 am

dp casts the 1st stone many times. look at what he said about ks boyfriend sm. i am not local but have heard lots about mr cales 1st hand. if i was missing & my dad thought my husband did it he’d be knocking. im not digging at mr cales im truly just puzzeled. seems weird on both ends.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:39 am

feisty - where did you hear anything about Mr. Cales? Only here is where I have, and I am local. Amanda who posts here is the one that laid it all out about him, and that was her version. Not saying she’s right or wrong. Just saying that’s who openly wrote about the man, and that’s the ONLY thing I’ve seen anywhere. You saw something else?
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 9:42 am

Funny, I never once heard the name of KS’s boyfriend before. Only now that it was reported he was subpoenaed and compelled to appear before the GJ.

Another thing that was recently reported was that Mr. Morphey’s friend and brother appeared before the GJ.

Neither KS’s boyfriend, nor Tom Morphey himself, has said a word in public, either on tv or in the press.

Yet, the Peterson team has come out swinging against both of them, solely because of GJ reporting.

What’s up with that?
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:48 am

my brother lives near Mr. Cales. i agree about tm & sm but find it weird that he attacks them as soon as they go to grand jury but not mr cales. thats what makes it weird that he comes out swinging but on mr cales he hasnt uttered a word. dont you find it strange with all the swinging going on as you have stated
truthisthere // May 9, 2008 at 9:52 am

I have never heard of a father 6 months into an investigation never uttering a word about the suspect in his daughters murder. He has been interviewed several times. Not a word. Makes no sense.
feistygurl // May 9, 2008 at 9:55 am

nothing about this case makes sense in my mind.
facsmiley // May 9, 2008 at 9:59 am

‘Cales said that although he talked to his daughter practically every day, she never confided in him about the problems she had with her husband, Drew Peterson, a former Bolingbrook police sergeant. But Cales—who at 53 is a year younger than his son-in-law—said he was confident that Stacy would not desert her children.

“She never left her kids,” he said. “She called me every day. If she didn’t get me on the phone, she’d leave a voice mail.”‘

**************

To me it sounds like he had nothing to say about Drew because Stacy never talked about the problems between them. Since he doesn’t have any info about the case, he has nothing to say to the press.
facsmiley // May 9, 2008 at 10:01 am

There’s this too, but this is all I’ve ever seen from him about Drew:

*****

Cales said he’s suspicious of Peterson’s offer this week of a $25,000 reward for information leading to Stacy’s safe return…

…Cales said he’s frustrated by Peterson’s media appearances and antics. Before Valentine’s Day, Peterson proposed participating in a “Win a Date with Drew” contest on a radio station.

Cales hasn’t talked to Peterson since Stacy vanished, he said.

“We actually got along really well. I thought we were pretty good friends,” Cales said. “I see him on TV, and it just burns me up, the silly things he does and says.”

I am surprised too that KS’s boyfriend has never once been quoted in the press about anything. Or, for that matter, DPeterson’s estranged son, Eric.

I’m sure the media and the reporters have, in fact, asked them for comments. I’d probably bet odds they said “no comment.” Some people do that. Then, there’s nothing to pick apart for everyone else!

As to the neighbor, and the plant people, and the supporters, well, there’s plenty of finger pointing that can be done, yes.
_______________________

Sorry, in advance. I have to tell you, I really laughed at the “plant people”. I am in full agreement with Amanda in that building a shrine for Stacy is a wonderful gesture…but on the lawn of Sharon and in full view of the children is totally inappropriate. For goodness sakes. Seems to me that the money and time spent to tend to a garden “in memory of Stacy”…that could be better used towards the Savio/Peterson children who lost their mother.

I would rather have seen a tree of gift cards and things on Drew’s lawn for the children…as opposed to flowers, posters, pictures, angels, frogs, and the rest of it makes it look rather like a cemetary Sorry, but that is how I feel and I am a very avid supporter of Cassandra finding her sister and bringing her home for a proper burial….but it has gotten a bit out of hand. I imagine the little kids are probably wondering why they don’t have flowers in their yard? The teens are probably wondering why if Stacy and Kathleen was their mom do they not have this kind of attention? And adding Kathleens photo to the mix is a real confusing issue for the children. Good gracious….all I can say is that they may see that their neighbor has all these flowers and gifts……..and they are the ones that lost their mothers….and it WAS their mom…..not Sharon’s mom. Kids are never going to be able to view this other than a personal invasion. (By the way, it was my 13 year old son who gave me the explanation on how he would feel if he were Drew’s child)
noway406 // May 9, 2008 at 10:13 am

I’ve been reading the posts above, and . . .

I would also like it if Drew didn’t put his children in his interviews and other publicity stunts.

I would like it if Sharon stopped with the multiple pictures of Stacy in her windows and the flower garden.

And, if the pictures and flowers really bother the older boys, then Drew should have them tell Sharon. For everyone’s sake, it might be best if a neutral third party was involved so it doesn’t turn into a public spectacle.

IMO, a public display of all these flowers would get more attention for Stacy’s case. For example, in front of the library or some other public place. Get people talking about why the flowers are there.

That’s easy, feisty. Because Mr. Cales hasn’t said a word against him. That would be silly for Peterson to cast the first stone and stir up a frenzie about his reputation. After all, that is his missing wife’s father. Would that endear people to Peterson if he started hacking away at him, solely because he’s his wife’s father, and for no other reason? How would Peterson justify saying something negative against him in public, when, in all reality, almost no one has hard anything about the man. We have, because we’re local. But, he’s never been on tv or in national newspapers.

Rescueapet, I can assure you if Stacy’s father spoke of anything negative about Drew in the public….DP and JB would not hesitate for a second to lash out in some ridiculous retaliating method. Lets not forget that he has not lost just one daughter, he also lost Tina…he also has probably adhered to the advice of the ISP to not speak out. Sounds like a smart man to me.

Put the flowers where they are going to generate conversation with the public. Visitors to Bolingbrook … business people who travel … whoever.

Hmm …

Drew has told these children that their mother has left them (not just him) for another man, another life.

Their neighbor, aunt, and a whole bunch of other people think their mom is missing, maybe dead. And that their Dad did it. Even the police call him a suspect. The only suspect.

Because there is this conflict between what the people they love think … IMO, this is just not a gift card giving situation.

Enough already!

IMO, the more people who know about this case, the better. There must be people who just pass through Bolingbrook who would have no idea that Stacy Peterson is missing.

Make that flower garden work for the effort to find her.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 10:29 am

I have one word to say about dragging Mr. Cales into this. I will not say another word about it, truth. The man did nothing, nothing, nothing!!!!! He did not cause his daughter to disappear, and what he did in his prior life means nothing to me. Me hating him, the neighbors, the plant people, the supporters, the family, isn’t going to save the day.

Believe you me, what Drew Peterson did IN HIS PAST is going to make a whole world of difference in this, not Mr. Cales.

It’s which lawyer can make the jury want to convict or acquit Drew Peterson. They don’t give a rat’s hoot about the plant people or the sign people. It’s the hate and rage the bloggers have for it them that makes it a circus.

You know, I’ve heard quite a few here in the past voice their dislike for SP, and point out that she was romping around with Drew Peterson when he was married to KS. Well, if read Gatehouse’s article about this latest GJ appearance, you will see that KS was also “the other woman” when he was married to his second wife!!!!!!!! Should I drag reputation through the muck now? Not me.

And, the fact that they’re on their high horse that SP is a bad woman because she kept a dark secret to herself is amazing. That means these same people are looking past the fact that Drew Peterson is, in fact, a MURDERER. He gets a pass, she doesn’t. Whew. Help me.

well if they moved the garden no one would drive by & see the pics in her windows in the back yard. id suggest a garden at a childrens hospital
basherette // May 9, 2008 at 10:35 am

LaVonda, what one G*d’s green earth makes you think for even a moment that DiP would use those gift cards for the KIDS?

Heck, people have been wanting to send greetings cards filled with gift cards since before Christmas, but that idea was nixed because there’s no guarantee that the kids would ever even see them.

I look at it this way- the less people mess with DiP’s yard/trees/house, the less stressed he’ll be about it, and a less stressed atmosphere is what all four of those children need. There’ll be plenty of drama later on as the case develops, but for now,the less drama for those children, the better.

I think 1 sign on the lawn is plenty. I also think that the flowers would make a noticeably bigger statement and have more impact if they were planted somewhere in a busy, public area in the Bolingbrook village center.

But that’s just me…
noway406 // May 9, 2008 at 10:35 am

Rescueapet, I agree. Mr. Cales is a man whose daughter is missing. What he says about the man who is a suspect really has no bearing on the fact that his daughter is missing.

And just to clarify, my “Enough already” was for the people who can make a difference in this case, not directed to anyone posting here. Unless of course, you are one of the people who could make a difference in how the flowers are being handled.

Also, regarding Stacy’s father:

Yes, her mother lost 4 children- SIDS, house fire, cancer and (most likely) murder. She went missing almost 10 years ago. I think she killed herself or might be a Jane Doe in a psychiatric hospital.

But- her father also lost 4 children. Who the hell knows what his state of mind is right now? I’d be depressed and worried and angry and scared as allgitout if I was bearing the load he’s carrying around- wouldn’t you? So personally, I don’t give a flying fig whether or not he decides to speak publicly about this tragedy. I do, however, pray for peace for the families involved, because losing just 1 child is beyond hard to bear and can break a person- losing 4, well… I can’t even begin to imagine the magnitude of that amount of pain.

Hey who is this all about? Where is Stacys name?

Hey everyone, Seth here with one quick update-

The “Fun” raiser is this saturday at the Ditka Dome in Bolingbrook starting at 5 pm. We hope that each and every one of you can make it out for this event. Right now, the 46 Zone and the Ditka Dome are handling all of the food for the event but the desserts are our responsibility. I’m personally making 20 or so dozen cookies (whatever the batch ends up making) and bringing those with. If you are attending the event and could possibly bring a dessert item to share it would be greatly appreciated (Sharon seems to like cheesecake on a stick, fyi) but any and all dessert items are welcome.

Thanks for your time and your continued support and we hope to see you all at the event on Saturday!!!

basherette // May 9, 2008 at 11:26 am

Back to the previous convo- like I said, according to DiP, Stacy ran off with another man.

Ok, so what happens to kids in that situation? Dad tells them that mom left him for another man, and she didn’t even bother to say, “Goodbye!” to them. They hear that OVER and OVER from Dad. How do they FELL? They’re confused, angry, don’t understand why mom didn’t take ‘em with her, feel sorry for Dad, and they miss her.

Similar emotions occur when a parent dies (by natural causes), but the depth of the emotions increases dramatically. It increases even more for the child of a parent who has been murdered by their other parent/step-parent/another family member.

So, basically, even though I think it was a nice idea, the garden has grown so large that it really should be moved. It IS Stacy’s garden, so I think it should be put somewhere with more daily public access, so that it can graner more attention to help keep high interest in finding Stacy and her case.

I honestly don’t think the flowers mean anything to the children other than being something very pretty to peek out the window at. DiP is the one who’s stessed out about it, and that added stress is not good for the children. Hence, my previous post- if you want to help the children in whatever way you can (short of arresting their father- yet), then give their control freak father less stress.

Why does this have to be so complicated?

It was an act by one person, who was thoughtful enough to include anyone who wanted to be included, and it was personal.

Now, I think would be a good time to move forward and make it benefit all missing people in the area.

Look at the bigger picture.

Yes, it would get Stacy’s name out there (and the name Stacy’s Garden can stay as far as I’m concerned) but let “Stacy’s Garden” stand for something more.

I look at it this way. I’m not givin’ DP a pass. I don’t have to agree with the way his wife’s supporters run their lives and what they do with them either. If the plant people want to draw attention to the neighbor’s yard, to me, it’s whatever floats your boat.

I cannot, however, for the life of me, see how such rage from anti-Stacy supporters can consume them so much that they pull the focus away from the suspect in a missing woman/possible homicide matter to giving a rat’s hoo too about cheesecake on a stick, and a bunch of plants on a lawn.

The only one in Drew’s camp so far that hasn’t, to my knowledge, chewed up and spit out the plant or cheesecake on a stick people, is Brodsky. He’s too busy worrying about the ones that are really hurting his client, ya think? Even the ones that haven’t uttered a word about him!!!!!!! Say, like, Mr. Morphy, and KS’s boyfriend now.

Yes, the focus today is, as a matter of fact, Brodsky getting in the newspaper, once again, and stating that maybe KS’s boyfriend should get a lawyer, she his girlfriend died in a house that he had access to and knew the security code of. Never mind that it fits his client too. Just shaking my head on that one.

Another poor soul that hasn’t uttered an unkind word about anyone in the press for him to bam, slam.
lavandadolce // May 9, 2008 at 11:56 am

Peterson’s attorney, Joel Brodsky, claims Maniaci and Savio broke off their relationship the weekend before she was found dead.
“If he was smart, he took the Fifth,” Brodsky said of Maniaci. “If it was my girlfriend who was found dead, and it was declared a homicide, and I had the code to the alarm system, and there were no signs of forced entry, I would have a lawyer with me.”

Maniaci could not be reached for comment. Savio’s niece, Melissa Doman, disputed Brodsky’s assertion.

“No. If memory serves me correctly, he was at my aunt’s wake,” Melissa Doman said. “Why would he be there if they broke up?”

_____________________________

So how would Brodsky have known that they broke up? Did Drew tell him that? So how did Drew know that if he couldn’t get ahold of her? I am pretty darn sure that Kathleen did not divulge to Drew that she and her boyfriend “broke up” as she was handing the children to him for the weekend.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 11:56 am

Besides, I thought Peterson and Brodsky have been denying the latest reports that she’s a homicide victim. Why is he telling someone not his client to lawyer up, and making the public think he should be considered by the cops as a suspect in a homicide? Duh! Throw it all out there and see what he can get to stick.

Lavanda, I meant that the person who posted the information about the fundraiser wanted to keep the focus away from what we were talking about.

And thanks, but if I want to read what is on other sites, I’ll go there.

And that’s what I like about this place. I can talk in all directions.

LOL, yeah, and as I said already, I love the part where he says “I would have a lawyer with me.”

When Drew went to the GJ and plead the Fifth, he didn’t have a lawyer with him. He had Brodsky. What’s up with that?

Gee- dunno what’s up with that.

*snort*

“snort” right back, LOL.

I heard a small mention, maybe at one time or another, from KS’s sister about her boyfriend, but maybe only one time. I wondered why he wasn’t much of an issue or hounded by the press. I wonder what he had to offer at the Coroner’s inquest regarding KS’s death. Seems to me if LE was looking to rule out homicide as a cause of her death at the time, they would have just as well investigated her current significant other, right along with Drew.

Why would Brodsky think we’re stupid enough to buy into his latest line that he thinks the boyfriend should lawyer up and LE should look at him????? Could he have been at two places at the same time?

Kathleen’s boyfriend probably had a real alibi, unlike Drew.
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 12:20 pm

yeah, I agree, and I would assume that they investigated both men for their alibis at the time. Accepted both of them. Just seems like they left a few loose ends that are being called into question now, though, like cell phone records that they were going to look at but never did (Drew’s).

I feel sorry for the guy now, since it looks like Brodsky is going to focus on him now, after appearing at the GJ. So far, that’s the guy’s only reason for that. If Brodsky is changing his tune about KS’s death from accident to homicide, along with LE, he’s going to rip this guy for it now. Too bad.

It’s a thought. However, if they DIDN’T call him then that would certainly pinpoint a problem. Definetly would mean something was amiss. Maybe he was called and that is where he stated they “broke up” and that may be how Drew found out.

I had read that the boyfriend was out of town at the time of her death and that LE had ruled him out. I don’t remember the source but will spend some time digging around to see what I can find.

noway - yes, that is what I heard too at the time KS’s boyfriend was brought up by her sister, that he was out of town at the time of her death.

Seems to me it would’ve been pretty easy for them to pinpoint where he was during that time. Just, too bad now, four years later, after moving on with his life, he has to be brought into the public’s eye solely because Brodsky chose to do so. That, I am sorry to hear, without knowing anymore than I do.

Of course Drew had an alibi, which went poof once Stacy disappeared. But I guess she isn’t around to turn on him either…
rescueapet // May 9, 2008 at 12:34 pm

lavonda - I think that is a shame that SPeterson’s name was even associated with those skeletal remains the other night on NG. That was just wrong!
truthisthere // May 9, 2008 at 12:35 pm

Noway, that is what I remember.

Also Drew was relying on the blue line to accept his alibi. No citizen would have gotten away with that.
