National Enquirer 12/17

[cheko1]

yes, cheko....& Mims will be a very good eye-witness as to a lot of 'fishy' stuff going on, after Stacy 'went missing'.....it's all going to start crumbling for DP very soon...it's started already

I agree......DP should just go and surrender now!

 

[SeriouslySearching]

I guess now we know it was the NE story that was mistaken for the Newsweek story, huh?! Newsweek had nothing in comparison.

OK About Yelton's house. Is this the same home on Kennedy that Stacy was supposed to go paint with Bruce because brother went back to jail? What is the exact story on that and did Drew have anything to do with that? Also, the owner of that house asked they come and search the yard for Stacy...wonder if this was ever done?

AND did they EVER look in Drew's freaking pool?!?! I have not been able to find anyone to confirm they did this. No one ever saw the pool cover off during the searches and Jamie Colby from Fox began asking the same question.

Mims lived at the Peterson home between Oct. 30 to Nov.3. And that Drew told him that he might have to use him as his hostage when the police came to arrest him, he showed Mims a fold-up gun the cops had missed in their search

Wow Rick, what an honor! :bang:
Glad you made it outta there.
I wonder what one of my friends would say if I told them that if I ever need hostage, they're it?
Would you pick your best buddy, or the one that got on your nerves last week? :croc:

Seriously, I would think that this statement would be enough to get a temporary protection order for the children and remove them to a safe place until this is resolved.

(Hey Linette,(my neighbor who reads WS) mind coming over for a minute? I need a little help holding off the SWAT team ...)

I haven't heard any of these questions answered SS.

 

[TGIRecovered]

And what about Drew's thing about his house being bugged? If this scenerio with the cell phone happened on Nov. 1st, had the cops already been in his house to execute the first warrant at that time?

If Drew used the chlorine in his pool you could of smelled it.....like Scott P pool. Chlorine especially that much reaks. Walking near it would smell even if its cold. The pool wouldn't of been frozen yet.

Another question about the pool I had was.....why did he buy chlorine? The pool would of been shut down?

I think the TOS say 10% of an article. You can always just tell us the most interesting segments! Thank you! :blowkiss:

Is there a link to the article? You can post that too.

10%. Isn't that about the percentage of accurate information found in the Enquirer? Or, that may actually be a high estimate.
I thought it was widely accepted that this publication is among the least credible sources ever put into print. I am having an extremely difficult time understanding why anyone (here or anywhere) would be using it.

 

[close_enough]

For sure its all closing in on him.
There will be an arrest soon.

I also wonder when the results
are expected back in Kathleen's
death?

i heard Baden say, about a week ago, results will be back "shortly"....so who knows?

Good thinking that went right over my head!
I'd imagine LE would of been there to talk to him after Cassandra filed the report. But why bug the place if they thought he was telling the truth?

I've wondered about that, SS. That is an obvious place to temporarily stash a body, but I would be shocked if the cadaver dog would pass that up. Just like I was shocked that FBI did not get survellience tapes at Krispy Kreme.

actually, 'we' find out, once things go to trial on other cases, that a lot of the info put out by the NE was accurate....sure, not all, but quite a bit will ring true....

In the Scott P case the NE had some great sources of info.
They aren't always a rag mag!

I would think that if Ric was the least bit concerned about those children...he would have immediately gone to CPS to tell them of that statement. Obviously, he did not or the children would have been removed. So does this mean it isn't true? Could it mean that Ric did them and they could not prove Drew did that...so they left them when they did visit? I also think a Judge would write an order to have the kids removed if they even suspected Drew of making that statement.

Is Steve C. going to be his new "hostage" now? Did Drew already pay Steve a handsome sum to stick around or promise him one in the future? I heard thru the rumormill that Steve C. and his wife wanted the children if Drew goes to jail. (I don't believe that will happen in a million years because Cassandra would never allow it...but could it be a reason for Steve C. to still be there?!)

If Ric were doing the right thing, then LE should know all of this information about the gun, hostage situation, and it could be why they returned on the second sw.

 

[strach304]

Why give the son the money if he planned to have his brother take care of them if he were arrested? I know that's what Drew said in one of his interviews where he stated he had already made arrangements for the kids.

i could be wrong, but i think it takes more than hearsay to take children away from a parent...

Maybe Drew never trusted his brother with his money?

While I believe like you that NE is the least credible of ANY source for information, I do believe that Ric Mims told them most of this. Ric admitted he sold the story, so they didn't use their conventional method of just making stuff up that fit. I would like to hear from Ric how much of what he told them has been twisted or they have taken to extremes.

True, but when it involves the word "hostage" in a situation such as Drew and the children find themselves in currently, I would think that "hearsay" would become very important.

 

[Tom'sGirl]

This must be the story Ric Mims admitted to selling to the 'Nat'l E' where he said he did so because:

it was his cell phone bill and big heart that motivated him to talk to the Enquirer. Mims said he would pay his $480 phone bill, most of which came from talking to reporters, then donate the proceeds to the Benefit for Stacy Peterson charity, which will fund the ongoing search. "I have not profited from this. This whole thing has cost me money," he said.
He wouldn't say how much the Enquirer paid him http://tinyurl.com/29tzgb

Did Ric give the LE all this information prior to selling his story to NE, if not, why not?
