Comments (31) Trackbacks (0) I was looking at some old family photos.... I was looking at some old family photos the other night and it made me think back about how our beautiful family came together and the role Scott's birth played in it.Jacqueline and I met in San Diego while pursuing college degrees. I fell in love with this lovely, lively, and sweet girl almost immediately, and it turned out she felt the same for me. We were married in November of 1971. I had three terrific children, Susan 11, Mark 9 and Joe 7 and Jacqueline brought her 4-year-old son John to the marriage. Scott was born in the fall of 1972 and was immediately a treasured and much loved member of our family of 7. Much love and cohesiveness developed within our blended family by watching this toddler with a constant smile and pleasant disposition. Scott learned right from wrong from not only from his mom and me, but also from his siblings who had a measurable hand in his upbringing. They taught him how to share and love. They read to him regularly and Scott developed an early love of reading. He was self sufficient at an early age, content to play with what was at hand and was able to entertain himself much of the time. Scott was a joy at all ages, always praised by his elementary and middle school teachers who were touched by his kindness to other children. In high school he excelled academically while being captain of the golf team for two years. He then went on to college at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo where he paid his tuition and supported himself by working as a waiter and other part time work. He graduated with a BS in Ag-business and almost immediately landed a job with a Spanish company, which wanted someone to introduce their agriculture products in the US. Scott and Laci met while both attending Cal Poly and when Scott introduced us to Laci we knew immediately she was a special girl to him and we could see that they were a great couple together. They were married shortly after Laci graduated with her degree in horticulture. They were very happy from the onset and had a dream raising a family and one day owning a small winery or olive farm in the Central coast area. About 3 years after they were married, Scott and Laci decided to make the move from San Luis Obispo, CA to Laci’s hometown of Modesto, CA. They wanted to purchase their first home and to be near her brother with hopes of raising their children together. They were close to reaching that dream when Laci became pregnant with their son in May of 2002. And as I reflect on our family and on Scott and Laci before that tragic day in December 2002, I want you all to know that my son is a good and caring man. He is incapable of harming anyone. He was universally liked and respected by his peers and business associates. During the FBI investigation the agents were not able to turn up one word which spoke ill of Scott. Not one person had ever seen Scott and Laci at odds or being other than loving and kind to one another. It pains me that the world does not know this Scott, that they believe he’s capable of murder. I will tell you now, my son is no murderer. He is an innocent man who was devoured by the media and ultimately our legal system. Unfortunately, we’ve found that this story of heartache, tragedy, and injustice is not unique, but we hold on to the hope that this injustice will be made right. Lee Peterson

Death Penalty Report 2008... Posted by Peterson Family

Comments (8) Trackbacks (0) Death Penalty Report 2008... The link to the left is to The Death Penalty in 2008: Year end Report. It contains alot of information if you would like to learn more about the death penalty. For every 8.7 people that have been executed in the United States since 1973, 1 death row inmate has been exonerated. California currently has 667 death row inmates. If you apply that ratio; 76 of them are innocent! And Scott is one of them!The Peterson Family Tuesday, May 5. 2009
Wrongful death lawsuit dropped... Posted by Peterson Family

Comments (16) Trackbacks (0) Wrongful death lawsuit dropped... Last week the Rocha family quietly dropped the wrongful death lawsuit against Scott. The reality is, if this civil case would have gone forward, it would have given Scott's criminal conviction an even better chance of being overturned because of the amount of new information that would have been discovered and revealed. Part of this civil litigation would have included depositions. Civil depositions would have allowed our attorneys to question people under subpoena who would not otherwise cooperate with our investigation. This would have been critical because our investigators do not have the power to execute a search warrant, they do not have power to detain people for questioning, and they do not have power to subpoena records. We know that with each new piece of evidence that comes to light, it further shows Scott is innocent. We have the truth on our side and as stressful and difficult as the courtroom and media spotlight are, we were not afraid for this civil trial to move forward.

A girl in our community.... Posted by Susan Caudillo

Comments (3) Trackbacks (0) A girl in our community.... On the morning of February 14th my husband and I were leaving our local grocery store and as we were heading out the door I noticed a missing person flyer taped to the door. The photo was of a teenage girl and when I read the details I learned that she was a classmate of my daughter and was last seen at 7:10am (about 20 minutes before school started) approximately 300 yards from the school's main entrances.I pay more attention to fliers since Laci went missing and our family experienced this first hand. This one touched very close to home and our immediate community. I know the panic and worry that set in when the parents, extended family, neighbors, and friends realized Amber Dubois never made it to school that day. It has been over two weeks now and there are literally no leads to her disappearance. Amber is said to have been very eager to be at school that day as she was going to be getting her baby lamb for her FFA class project. She also had Valentine gifts that she purchased the night before for friends she was to see at school that day. She had never run away in the past and it would be "very out of character" for her. They have a website www.BringAmberHome.com and a toll-free tip line 888-55AMBER. Please take a look at their website, print out some fliers and put them around your community. Amber could be anywhere in the country by now. Remember the fortunate outcome for Elizabeth Smart and her family! Our prayers go out to Amber, her parents, and family. We pray that she be will be found soon - safe and unharmed. Susan & Family |
