| Amber Frey two-timed detectives June 25, 2004 Scott Peterson's mistress Amber Frey was secretly contacting him even after she reported their affair to police, according to exclusive information obtained by Court TV's Catherine Crier. In fact, Frey was double-crossing detectives who were building a case against Peterson — cooperating in their efforts and then calling her boyfriend on the sly. "Apparently we've all been a bit misled about Frey's level of cooperation with police," Crier said in her on-air report, based on information from confidential sources, that police had a meeting Jan. 13, 2003, to discuss "the Amber problem." Based on a document obtained by Court TV, police concluded at that time that, "Amber Frey is no longer telling us the truth in this investigation." Frey came forward on her own to authorities about the affair, and, in a tearful press conference in late January 2003, she admitted having a two-month long "romantic relationship" with Peterson, whom she believed was single. Two weeks before Peterson's pregnant wife Laci vanished, Frey asked Scott if he was married. He denied it, saying he had recently "lost" his wife and the upcoming holidays would be the first without her, according to detectives. Frey told reporters in January that, when she learned about Laci's Christmas Eve disappearance, she immediately contacted law enforcement, offering to cooperate in their investigation. Scott Peterson told Amber Frey that he couldn't explain to her why he lied about his wife, but that he would soon, according to police. Although Frey tape recorded her conversations with Scott at the request of detectives, she was also making what she thought were secret calls to her former lover, according to the document Court TV obtained. Police had been tapping her phone, Crier reported, to make sure she was "on the up-and-up." Transcripts of the calls intercepted between Frey and Peterson have not been released, but Crier reported Friday that information gleaned from those calls led detectives to be suspicious about Frey's credibility. "Amber Frey still has a desire to have Scott Peterson in her life," a detective noted at the time. "She may even lie or conspire with him to withhold evidence." In January 2003, detectives asked Amber if she had heard from Scott, and she replied that she had not. Knowing her answer to be false, a detective concluded in the confidential document, "I suspect she may be disseminating information to Scott Peterson concerning what law enforcement knows about this investigation." Attorney Gloria Allred maintained that her client Amber Frey has been "extremely cooperative" with police. And would not confirm or deny knowledge of the secret conversations. "I think I will let Amber give any explanations, if any explanations are necessary, when she testifies," Allred said to Crier on air Friday. "All I can say is that Amber has been extremely cooperative with police, and I think when the police testify we will hear the level of cooperation." How these revelations will affect Peterson's murder trial is unknown. Frey is expected to testify for the state, and it is not clear yet if she made the calls to leak information to Peterson about the investigation, or if she was simply attempting to discuss the demise of their relationship in private. "On the many, many hours of recordings that were made," Allred said, "I think Scott Peterson will be his own worst witness against himself — not Amber."
