| From: FORMERNYGIRL Feb-27, 2003 Here it is, confirmed info about the cement bags that were found earlier: from abc / kgo news: Cementing A Case? Police Study Cement Traces On Scott Peterson's Boat The man who sold Scott Peterson the boat said he found traces of cement on the vessel that weren't there when he sold it. Police are looking at whether traces of cement found on Scott Peterson's boat and three containers of cement at his Modesto home could be related to the disappearance of his pregnant wife, Laci. Investigators carried out a two-day search of the Petersons' home last week in what they said was an effort to "eliminate or connect" him as a suspect in the case. One of the things they found in that search were containers of cement, which he said were for the people who were working on his pool. When police asked the pool workers, though,they said the cement was not theirs. Police asked the man who sold Peterson the boat he said he was fishing on the day that his wife disappeared to look it over and see if anything was different about it. He said that he saw traces of cement on the boat that were not there when he turned the boat over to Peterson. "I know it wasn't that way when I sold it to him," the man, Bruce Peterson, who is not related to Scott Peterson, told ABCNEWS affiliate KGO in San Francisco. "I don't know what he used it for, if he was hauling stuff or anything." The 14-foot aluminum boat is a 1991 Sears Gamefisher, equipped with a 15-horsepower Gamefisher outboard motor. Police seized the boat, its trailer, and a 2002 Ford F-150 pickup truck shortly after Laci Peterson disappeared. Peterson bought the boat a few weeks before his wife disappeared on Dec. 24. He said he last saw his wife at 9:30 a.m. on Christmas Eve when he left to go fishing on the boat. Since Laci Peterson disappeared, police have searched the San Francisco Bay near Berkeley, where Scott Peterson said he was fishing. They have also combed virtually every waterway in Stanislaus County, and portions of Merced, Calaveras, San Joaquin, Tuolumne & Mariposa counties, but found nothing in any of the searches.
