I'm watching and just posted a comment about the $$$ on the $$$ thread!Geragos is on Geraldo
Stacy Peterson's sister has hired a Washington, DC lawyer who has come to Chicago to meet with her.
Attorney Kevin McCants says he was contacted about the same time the FBI got involved in the investigation. His office is next door to the agency.

Sister says she trusts the police, but when the attorney says he is there to make sure evidence is preserved it makes me wonder if the attorney is there to make sure someone is watching the police. Maybe to make sure the case doesn't just get put away unsolved.
I hope someone watches the investigation. It seems like the BPD has closed their eyes to many things through the years and left at least 2 of DP's wives feeling very much unprotected. What a sicko that man is.
Could there be another reason for her hiring an attorney? That is a valid one Myster. I also think that this sister knows EVERYTHING that Staci knew or thought regarding Kathy Savio's death. I think as sisters their relationship was so close that they knew EVERYTHING the other was thinking about EVERYTHING. Remember, that when Stacy started dating Drew he was still married to KS. Stacy knew that. What else she and Drew shared about his marriage to KS could very well be known by her sister. We never put down a victim on websleuths and I don't want to do that. If, however, Stacy were (is) still alive, she might well be under a cloud of suspicion for the death of KS herself. I am not saying she was involved.
I question whether Cassandra knew. The reason I say that is that I believe that Stacy's family had questions about Drew from the beginning of the relationship. Pam Bosko stated that she felt right away that Drew had killed Kathleen. Because of those two things, Stacy most likely protected her husband. Haven't you ever known a woman whose choice of spouse was extremely disliked by the family members? In these situations, the woman will many times, hide anything ugly from her concerned family so as not to fan the flame and to avoid the "I told you so" feeling. Women in love overlook so much and then when things come to a head, finally begin confiding to close family members. If Stacy had been around long enough, she probably would have confided all to Cassandra about Drew, but I'm not sure she reached that point yet. Clearly, she had begun the process, but Kathleen's death was the big one. Just telling her pastor was a big burden shift and was probably the beginning of her confiding to others. She did tell Cassandra that she feared for her life, but I don't think she went further.
This whole thing with Drew Peterson has to make most law enforcement agencies around the country cringe with embarrassment. It's one thing to rally around and protect your own in benign sorts of ways. It's totally another thing to simply look askance, close your eyes, and ignore the obvious while a man hired to uphold and enforce the law has made a mockery of it for so long. Those 18 calls to LE from Kathleen which didn't result in Drew's arrest are really glaring. 18????????? One or two could be explained, but 18????
Then, because of her death, it appears that they didn't begin to look at it seriously....they really should have recused themselves and turned it over to another agency. There are so many red flags to us amateur sleuths. This officer has issues beyond his marriage going clear back to the fiance - the chief had to get involved twice - and he was fired once but then rehired. My guess is there's a whole lot more.
So, Cassandra is right to be suspicious, but I'll bet the BB police chief now really wants to get this taken care of and to then clean house. Most LE agencies would not condone this kind of behavior. It taints agencies all over the country and just reinforces opinions that many already have. Sickening that this guy was able to do as he darn well pleased for so many years.
Calling all drug dealers: Please come forth with your tales of Drew Peterson. Did he rip you off? How much did that protection cost?
You are right on! The last thing an abused spouse wants to do is turn the people and family she loves against the abuser. That is just too embarrassing and is the last thing one does before a breakup. The fact that Stacy was starting to confide about Drew shows how serious she was to end it. Unfortunately, Drew was never going to let anyone end it with divorce and child support and all that goes with it. He was going to make sure if Stacy did not want to be with him anymore, she was not going to be with anyone else. JMHOYou are right, we just don't know. I think, if Stacy told Cass that Drew scared her by shooting the Glock from the Bedroom through the floor to the garage, she was pass the point of trying to make him look good to her sister. It does happen a lot though. It is one of the reasons that it is so hard for abused women to get support from their families when they try to get away. The families wonder why they never heard about this before!
I have thought this all along. He was pissed off she was going to meet Bruce and was jealous which probably did spark the fight.I have been wondering if the fight that morning was precipitated by the fact that Stacy was going to be with Bruce - a man. If I understood correctly, Cassandra wasn't going to go. Maybe he got into a jealous rage. Here she was going to go off with a guy to "paint" (which in his mind means have wild sex, of course) and he was going to have to babysit. Plus the fact that they were on the phone with each other for 20 minutes or more.
It also makes you wonder if he put the body somewhere near Bruce's house (she's where she wants to be)...
It was reported in the media and on Video that the property had been canvassed.I have been wondering if the fight that morning was precipitated by the fact that Stacy was going to be with Bruce - a man.

I have gone back in the first thread and it looks like it took place around 11-2, but haven't found the link to it yet. We were discussing it on the last page of the first thread tho.Do you have a link to the video of Bruce? that's very interesting.
