| Brown Van Spotted June 6, 2003 The Stanislaus County district attorney's office has obtained what it believes is the mysterious van Scott Peterson's defense team said will help prove his innocence. Investigators with the district attorney's office, which has charged Peterson with the murder of his eight-months pregnant wife Laci, said the van was found Friday. Lawyers for Scott Peterson have hinted that members of a Satanic cult, and a brown van spotted in the couple's neighborhood, were behind the disappearance of Laci, The van, its contents and the people associated with it were all checked and cleared, and the vehicle was sent to the state crime lab for further testing, the district attorney's office said. Scott Peterson's defense team was allowed access to the van Tuesday to conduct its own investigation. Prosecutors said so far nothing significant had been found. Peterson's attorneys had said they were searching for a brown van reportedly spotted in the area when Laci disappeared on Christmas Eve. They said Donnie and others were linked to the van. Just after the Donnie theory circulated in the press, another one supporting the prosecution's case cropped up — this one related to Peterson's fishing-trip alibi.Scott has said he was on a fishing trip on Dec. 24. But on Dec. 23, the night he and Laci were last spotted together, he told his wife's sister, Amy, that he was going on a golf trip the next day. Scott and Laci were last seen together at the Modesto beauty parlor where Amy works. While his pregnant wife sat nearby and his sister-in-law cut his hair, Peterson told Amy that he had a golf tee time the following day, Christmas Eve, and volunteered to run an errand for her on his way home from the game. He apparently did not mention any plans to go fishing. ********************* NATIONAL ENQUIRER ARTICLE HOME INDEX SCOTT LACI STORY INDEX CULT INDEX MAGAZINE INDEX DEFENSE TEAM PROSECUTION INDEX ALIBI-WITNESS LIST EVIDENCE-NEWS |
