| Peterson told Frey he "lost his wife" November 6, 2003 Scott Peterson told his lover, Amber Frey, on Dec. 9 that he had "lost his wife," Frey told police after the pregnant Laci Peterson disappeared Christmas Eve, Detective Al Brocchini testified late this morning. Scott denied on Dec. 24 that he was having an affair, Brocchini testified earlier this morning at Peterson's preliminary hearing on double-murder charges. Peterson told Frey in December that he was out of the country, that it was his first holiday without his wife and that he "would be more exclusively with her (Frey) after Jan. 25," Brocchini said Frey told him. Peterson appeared to listen dispassionately as the detective testified. Brocchini also said Peterson was arrested driving a maroon convertible Mercedes. He used his mother's name when he bought the car with 36 $100 bills. And, Peterson had changed his appearance when arrested April 18, Brocchini testified. The seller told Brocchini he asked about Peterson's supposed name, Jacqueline Peterson, and Scott Peterson said his parents gave him the name. He said it was "a boy-named-Sue kind of thing," Brocchini said the seller told him.
