| Susan Aquino: Laci's aunt -- testified Wed. June 9, 2004 Susan Aquino, (sister of Sharon Rocha), Laci Peterson's aunt stated she received a call that Laci was missing and she immediately went to the home of her niece. She stayed with her sister to help calm her down during the turmoil of the evening. The next morning while at Laci's, the police arrived to tell Scott of possible sightings of Laci. She heard two police officers tell Scott that two witnesses had seen his wife walking across a bridge in a nearby park. Scott said, "That wasn't Laci; she doesn't go around there,'" Aquino recalled. After the police left Scott showed no interest in the possible sightings of Laci saying, "That wasn't Laci," Aquino testified at his murder trial this afternoon. Aquino, said she was "excited that somebody had seen" the missing woman after police officers gave the potentially good news to Scott about noon Christmas 2002, during a massive search. But he immediately ignored the report. The testimony helped prosecutors because it showed Peterson brushed off information he should ostensibly have been interested in. The officers said two people reported seeing the 27-year-old substitute teacher on a footbridge. Aquino didn't specify the location. Defense attorney Mark Geragos did not cross-examine Aquino at length, apparently content that he didn't have to after she confused Christmas Eve with Christmas. _________ Many thanks to Lil Cali Girl HOME INDEX LACI SCOTT TRIAL ALIBI-WITNESS LIST |
