NE NE - Corrie Wood, 28, Grant, 20 September 2008 #1

[mmleikam]

Okay, so I sent the friend that took Corrie home a message on MySpace a few days ago. This is what I sent her, word for word:

"Hey, I wanted to ask you a couple questions about Corrie, if that's all right. If not, I'm sorry, I don't mean to be a pain in the . You're welcome to tell me to screw off. LOL

Anyway, if you decide to answer, here are my questions:

What time did you guys leave the bar that night?

What time did you guys get back to Grant?

Did you lock the door to their house when you left?

Did you talk to Scott at all between the time you guys left and the time you left their house?

I've been thinking a lot about this whole thing and just wanted to clear those questions up in my mind. I hope you're doing okay; I imagine this whole thing isn't easy for you. :/

Take care and talk to you later!"

Now, I'm a little pissed about the response I got, or the lack of a response I got, I should say. Rather than sending me a response telling me she didn't want to answer my questions, to screw off or whatever, she called my mother in law, crying because I was asking these pressing questions. Whatever. So I'm totally done defending her and sticking up for her.

I did find out why they went to her house, though. They dropped off the friends boyfriend.

 

[mmleikam]

Why are all of you tearing and ripping into someones life??? I can't belieive it, if it was my life I would be so hurt even after what Scott has been through and you still do this to him. He isn't the one you need to be pointing fingers at it's the other people you need to look into. If you have ties to Grant, like you say you do then maybe you should get the other peoples names and start checking them, your wasting you time on Scott.

Not everyone here has ties to Grant, so not everyone knows who the other "persons of interest" are. I'm so pissed off at the friend right now though, I might just drop her name on "accident." *sigh*

Those are some GREAT questions and I really wonder why she didn't answer them it would really help out here. I don't blame you for not wanting to stand for her, it's like she is hidding something:dance:

I think "quiet" would be great if they know what they were doing, IMHO! I have an eerie feeling they don't know what they are doing. They certainly missed their chance at all the "fresh" forensics after the crime scene was prematurely released. Who knows what they were able to collect after the fact?? I know we speak of the sheet washing incident and the egg crate being thrown out - well, a dummy would know that tons of dna or forensics could have been on there. I believe someone posted that LE does have these things, so let's hope that is the truth and not false. My correspondance with the reporter has led me to believe that even the newsworld thinks that the police "botched" the scene and case. Let's pray this isn't the case.

MM, That is really interesting about your friend. The thing is though, I still don't think she is the one who did this. I think it is a great possibility that she might have information about that night that we are not aware of - the phone calls for one. I think it is possible she knows about the fight and what that was all about etc... I don't know, this one sounds more like she might be scared of Scott - and who wouldn't be, all you have to do is read this website and look at his record. Makes me wonder if Corrie knew about how many DUI's he had dating back to the early 90's -- she was only in Jr High back then not to mention his entire LONG record.

Scott is scary-and I doubt she knew all about his past. If people in Grant don't think Scott did it then why has he lost all his business clients....I have a feeling that they know who did it(Scott) but the case has been botched so badly that they are looking for more evidence to prove it. I honestly don't think Corrie's friends are smart enough to do this AND keep it a secret--that takes an experience felon.

Patriot, You make a great point about the experienced felon. Personally, if I did something unlawful - I think I would shake just from sheer nerves - the same type of shaking one gets before you have a baby (for us moms out there) Usually, a sociopath type has no problem lying about this type of thing because they feel no guilt or emotions. I am not saying he is a sociopath but he has some type of personality disorder, physical abuse issues and substance abuse issues. If you are capable of those above, you are lacking a consiousness gene of some sort. He will get caught, it is only a matter of time -- Us WB's will not let this murderer die along with Corrie. Not to mention we are in touch with reporters and locals in the bigger cities -- Wouldn't it be something is the imperial republican printed Scott's long list of felonies?? After all, he is a harzard to the safety of the town folk with all those DUI's and another one recently at the begining of October.

I don’t take it as her hiding anything. She’s a witness in a murder investigation. She’s not obligated to answer anyone’s questions except LE’s.

No one said she was obligated to answer, however all she had to say was that LE had asked her not to discuss the case; not go crying to someone else because I'm being mean for asking a few questions.

But regardless, if LE has asked her not to discuss the case, then I think she should probably quit running her mouth about things, don't you? The ONLY reason I asked the questions that I did was because she's been talking about the case since day one in public. She enjoys the attention and unfortunately, a private email between the two of us wasn't enough attention. It only works for her to be running her mouth to a group of people because it gives her the attention she desires.

The criminal record means nothing to me at all. One thing I have learned in life is people can change and people do change. Why would the papers even list the criminal record? It's means nothing to them it would just be telling LE stuff they already know and a waste of paper and time. I know Scott very well and have seen him and Corrie together many times and he NEVER showed anything that he would EVER hurt Corrie. I don't believe he had anything to do with this, maybe you should research the other people involved.

I honestly don't think I would have answered your questions either. She is probably reading this forum, since it seems like many people in your town are. If I opened that message after my friend was murdered, knowing that people thought I may have done it, I would have cried and told people what you did too. Just saying. I'm sure everyone has been asking her questions.

The criminal record is important. It isn't an arrest or two, it is over a dozen. He has threatened people in the past and been violent in the past. People can and do change, but he has consistently shown that he is not capable of it. And most couples act loving in public. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors, even close friends. Especially once alcohol gets thrown in the mix.

I don't know how you can sit there and say that a criminal record has no meaning! Especially when it is a mile long and starts when he is like 17 all the way up to his current age of 38!! That makes 21 years of straight criminal acts!!! Especially the ASSULT charges...come on, don't be blind and say that poeple can change and that it means nothing! Yeah people can change but he is one that obviously has NOT changed! In trouble on and off starting at age 17 and he is 38...when is he going to change?????? AND... you saw them together before and it seemed like he would never hurt Corrie, well I've got news for you, they had gotten into physical fights before and she came out with bruising...never huh??? Yeah I don't think so...

Well of course his record means nothing to you since you know Scott so well!!! It is hard when you are close to someone you care about or if you those kinds of feelings for a man. But if you look at this from an unbiased perspective, his record speaks volumes!!!! I really am uncertain if Corrie Wood would have had much to do with Scott if she had known how bad his past really is....I certainly wouldn't want my child around this type of person. Changed or not...I wouldn't be willing to stick around to make sure he has changed. If you know him so well and he is so innocent give us a clue as to why his record means nothing to you. Please answer since you were bold enough to post this statement.

I will answer that!!! It means nothing to me because I know the man very well and he has changed, I have seen it and believe it and will continue that way. Corrie did know and had faith in him the whole way of their relationship. Every realationship has it's problems whos doesn't. He is innocent and I will go day by day thinking that. As to everyone thinking his business has gone to **** well let me tell you, your all wrong. His business is doing great and has picked up, just wanted to clear this all up so no one has anymore questions about his business. Like I stated before maybe you should start looking at the people she was with that night and NOT Scott. Just because someone has a criminal record doens't make them a bad person and yes Scott has changed I've seen it first hand:dance:

Straight from Scotts mouth:

This is from Scott Petro, another inmate serving time where Charley is.

Let's see, what do I see wrong with the Nebraska State Pen? First let me introduce myself. My name is Scott Petro #56799 at the Nebraska State Pen, currently serving a 2-4 year sentence for Terroristic Threats and Theft by Deception. I'm 32 years old and this is my first, and hopefully last, prison sentence.

One of the main things that really bothers me is the lack of education. That department has been slashed down to just providing GED classes, ESL (English for a second language) and a couple of select college courses that only allow 5 inmates per class. Now on the other hand, NSP spends a small fortune on our worthless Mental Health program. I am in Session 0 of Level 2, and find it quite amazing that the Parole Board made this one of my parole requirements. There are 4 levels, each having 12 sessions, they each run 6 weeks, meeting twice each week. You really mean to tell me that they are gonna change 32 years of behavior in that short amount of time? Let's see, at 2 hours a week, 4-6 week sessions, I come up with 48 hours!! Have you stopped laughing yet?

Yes everyone can have relationship problems, all relationships take a lot of hard work...BUT not everyone has physical violence problems in their relationship!! I sure don't anyway...an argument here and a silent treatment there but no actual hits, never, that is NOT normal!!! And thank you NSC for pointing out loud and clear SCOTTS OWN WORDS!!:clap::clap::clap::clap:

 

[Fairy1]

If Scott is innocent and someone else is responsible for Corrie's death, most (not all) posters here will be the first to admit they were wrong. However, at this point, Scott is the most likely suspect - for a variety of reasons. The names of the other people with Scott and Corrie that night have not been made public - to my knowledge. That is why, here anyway, those folks are not being discussed. Scott has a lengthy record, which includes violent behavior. And the fact that he appears to have been arrested for DUI again since Corrie's death doesn't really make a convincing case that he has changed. Everyone here is entitled to their own opinions and until more evidence is released, we can only speculate on what we do know. If you have specific details you care to comment on, please do so. But don't attack other posters without being willing to back it up.

 

[Jesikah1]

In addition to some of the previous remarks, it is very possible that Scott wants/wanted to change, or is very adept at seeming sincere in this goal. However, some people are just born a certain way or learn BAD ways of handling things or getting the things that they want. Of course they keep this side of them hidden, especially to those that they want to keep in their inner circle. And to those close to Scott, I hate to say it, but criminals, especially those who have spent time in jail can be some of the best at this. His record shows that he consistently uses violence, deception, and poor impulse control in his life, and that for one concerns me regarding his involvement in Corrie's death. Keep in mind that it is very possible to be a great friend, and at the same time be a bad spouse, boyfriend, etc...It is very rare that you find an out and out all around bad person.
These are just my two cents, hope they make sense!

We rarely know what goes on behind closed doors. A couple can act like the happiest couple in the world in front of others...I've seen this several times...but when no one else is around it is a different story...not all of the time mind you... but especially when things aren't going the way of the person who rules the roost. There is that cycle in abusive relationships. Things get ugly and he kisses your butt and promises you the moon and you forgive him because you want the relationship to work for whatever reason. Things are good for a little while and it starts all over again and over and over.

Most people who were around my daughter and her ex wouldn't have guessed how abusive he could be when he felt his control was slipping or he thought she was looking at another guy. He never ever hit her in front of others...he knew better. She didn't tell anyone for about 5 years and only then because she had gotten the courage to leave him. Without going into the whole story...my daughter is also dead and she also left behind a little girl at that time. Never say never because you may find yourself eating your own words.
It's happened to me many times

When a person has an anger problem and they are drinking or druging when they become really ticked off they are a real danger to others. I hope you aren't denying that Scott has an anger problem.

 

[friends]

you all know how I feel and it will never change. That's all i have to say so keep moving on.
