| LACI & CONNER FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS |
| A baby girl is born, 1943, named Jacqueline. She has two older brothers and two years later she will have a younger brother, Robert.. A tragedy hits the family when her father John Latham, is murdered a few days before Christmas, December 21, 1945....she was 2 1/2 years old, the third of four children, and was mostly raised by Catholic nuns -- Jackie Peterson's widowed mother had trouble caring for her children, and when Jackie was 5, she was sent to a Catholic home for children that she describes today as "basically an orphanage." For a time, the nuns who ran the school permitted just weekly visits with her mother, Helen Latham. Gradually, the restrictions were eased -- but Jackie Peterson was only 18 when her mother died. *************** -1963, a child is born to an unwed mother. The baby is called, baby Latham and a private adoption is arranged for this boy who we later know is named Don Chapman. Years later, he finds his birth mother, Jackie Peterson. ************** -In 1965, she becomes pregnant again, this time with "baby girl Latham". Again a private adoption is arranged and the child is named Anne Grady. She, too, will eventually locate her birth mother, Jackie Peterson. ************* -1966 Jackie again has a child, a boy she names John E. Latham. She keeps this son and brings him to her marriage to Lee Peterson in 1971 and he takes the Peterson name. We know him as John Peterson. There is no proof provided that he was adopted by Lee. ************** A year later, October 24, 1972, she gives birth to another son, Scott Peterson. He is the only child born to Lee & Jackie. I was also told by a friend of Anne Grady Bird that, yes, there were three different father's for the 3 children Jackie had out of wedlock, and that Lee is not John's birth father. There is nothing to dispute this. There are also 3 different newspaper articles recounting the death of Jackie's father which I hope to post soon. ************** Jackie's mother's name was Leeta Helen Hixon. She was called Helen. Leeta's sister Peggy, was one of the guardians for the minor children after Leeta Helen died. RTE66 found that Jackie's youngest brother named his daughter Leeta, after his mother-- ********************* One may ask why this info on the family is important. We are trying to figure the mindset of Scott. If Jackie was on her own early, had children she adopted out and made no mention of them until just before Scott was married......how did Scott react? Does he have no regard for a life? Does he feel people are disposable? We know now there have been lies by the family. As when it was in print that Lee and Jackie raised all the children who were brought into the marriage, including Don Chapman and Anne Grady. We know now this is untrue. We also know the "Golf Scholarship" isn't true. So was Scott raised in a family that lies it's way through life? Is this Scott's mindset? Did they raise a Sociopath? A psychiatrist agrees; The brutal crime opened a painful chapter in the life of Scott's mother Jackie and a top forensic psychiatrist believes the trauma could even have impacted Scott. "Children whose parents are murdered never get over it, and they pass their trauma along unconsciously to the next generation," renowned forensic psychiatrist Andrew Hodges told the Enquirer.
