And then there's the motive - a decent motive would be helpful. In this case there isn't a plausible one that I've heard. In many ways it sounds like he had more to lose than gain. Then there's all of the things that are odd - the person who saw Laci walking after the time she would've needed to have disappeared, the pregnant woman and dog that looked like Laci who'd had death threats, Mr. Peterson's actions after the murder (why not go immediately to mexico or into the country), etc. Yes, you're right though - I definitely believe that it's better to have a 100 guilty men go free than have an innocent man put to death. If, however, it's a case like the Wisconsin hunting murders - skip the appeals, he's guilty, give him the death penalty. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - RUWebby http://www.ruwebby.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:139886 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
