Laci's remains were found, April 13, 2003.
Scott was arrested, April 18, 2003, but DNA results weren't known yet. They feared he would flee.
The autopsy was completed AND sealed on, May 15, 2003.
At what point the remains were positively ID'd, I don't know.
EDIT: Okay, some sites are claiming that DNA results were completed before the arrest. I do recall that Scott never once asked if the found remains belonged to his wife.
Edit for the thousandth time LOL. It's all starting to come back slowly. I found this and someone correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't the results come in while they were enroute back to Modesto with Scott? Is this where Scott had 1 tear fall from his face?
Scott Peterson has been arrested. He was arrested between 11 and 12 noon, before they got the final DNA results. Law enforcement determined he had to be arrested at that time. He was arrested while driving a vehicle. Sounds to us like they thought he might flee--perhaps through a wiretap and cell phone records, but the police aren't talking about that.

He was withing 30 miles of the Mexican border with camping gear and $10,000 cash on his possession. Also he dyed his hair and had grown a goatee.
