| August 3, 2003 Amber Dawn Frey was born Feb. 10, 1975, in Los Angeles Her parents, Ron and Brenda, divorced when she was 5. Her sister, Ava, was 8. The family was living in the Fresno area at the time. Amber Frey also has a half brother, Jason Frey, a 32-year-old San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy now serving as a captain with the Army Reserve in Baghdad. Court records indicate that Amber lived with each parent as she was growing up. She spent at least part of her elementary school years in Coarsegold. She spent her freshman and sophomore years at Sierra High School in eastern Fresno County and her junior year at Fresno's Hoover High School. She graduated from Clovis High School in 1993. Ron Frey, a gregarious and talkative general contractor, said he was out of town a lot when Amber lived with him during her high school years. He had a friend -- a woman bodybuilder -- stay with his daughter while he was gone. That is when Amber developed an interest in bodybuilding, he said, and she has kept her interest in staying in shape. "She's tough as nails," her father said. He had Amber handling bricks and a wheelbarrow on his job sites as a girl. Now he tries to defend her by giving interviews to the media even though she would prefer he be quiet and not attract attention. "I'm the dad. What is she going to say?" he said. Ron Frey collects reporters' and producers' phone numbers in spiral notebooks. Sometimes, they call him. Sometimes, he calls them, as he did in June when he wrote a letter to the editor praising his son and daughter and wanted some TV coverage. Appearances followed on MSNBC, CBS and ABC. "I have a mission," Ron Frey said. "My mission is to get Amber through this without a scrambled mind." He also confided: "I'm close enough people will believe anything I say one way or the other." ************** LACI HOME INDEX TRIAL INCONSISTENT STATEMENTS ALIBI-WITNESS LIST AMBER SCOTT MAGAZINES EVIDENCE-NEWS & STORIES WIRETAPS ATTORNEY PICTURES |
