| In a pre-emptive attack on defense witnesses who claim they saw Laci Peterson alive after her husband is alleged to have killed her, prosecutors focused Wednesday on other pregnant women who lived in the couple's neighborhood. As he questioned each witness about their walking routes and habits, the prosecutor flashed onto a large projection screen snapshots of the women taken at the time. JORDAN VISOLA-PRESCOTT Jodan Visola-Prescott lives on the same street as the Petersons and testified that in late December 2002, she was 4 1/2 months pregnant with twins and frequently walked her border collie- Labrador mix at La Loma Park. Her photo showed her holding her swollen belly with her brown hair falling on her shoulders like Laci.On cross-examination, she acknowledged that she usually pulled her daughter in a red wagon during walks. ELIZABETH GUPTILL Guptill lives near the Petersons and was five months pregnant in late December 2002. She does not have a dog but often walked in the neighborhood around that time. JILL LEAR Lear lives near the Petersons and was 6 1/2 to 7 months pregnant in late December 2002. Photos were shown of her posed in black tights like the ones Laci Peterson often wore walking. She often walked her dog in the neighborhood and at La Loma Park around that time but does not think she went on a walk on Dec. 24. *********** During his cross-examinations, Geragos pointed out that the women were hardly carbon copies of Laci in either habits or appearance. He noted that Lear's dog was a small Australian Shepherd with a black-and-white coat drastically different from Mackenzie's blond coat. Bisola-Brescott's black-and-white spotted border collie and Labrador retriever mix also scarcely resembled Mackenzie.
