Suspect Drew Peterson #3

[DeltaDawn]

The other thing that has always struck me was that Drew mentioned how he gave her jewelry, anything she wanted , then mentioned the boob job, the tummy tuck, the braces, etc..I think that he did not encourage her in the area of wanting all those things..they were expensive ..I think Stacy wanted and needed those things because she felt insecure with himdue to her age and the way he treated her. I think Stacy was still young enough at that time that she equated someone giving her the things she wanted with love and security. I think that not until recently and she realized the price she would have to pay for those things did she fully comprehend what she was involved in . I think that Drew felt he had this young wife that didn't or shouldn't need these things, but she wanted them so he went along with it. She wanted them because she was insecure, but with a man like Drew you can never be secure..she just hadn't figured that out yet. Then Drew thinks if she is getting all this work done it must not be for me..look at me I'm in my 50's, it must be because she wants to be attractive to other men..which leads to which other men imparticular..which leads to the spying, bugging...because he will always be attracted to other women, so he follows that line of thinking. He always had followed that line of thinking to some extent.

In the meantime she is starting to get tired of the spying and bugging and accusations that all this cosmetic work has brought on..knowing that he is capable of murder and sensing her time is about up as Mrs Drew. Plus she holds key info to another murder, he has his listening devices, knows she has been talking and that has to end..he can't just let her walk out now because that puts him in jeopardy for Kathleen's murder. He starts to plan the ending ..but they get in a huge fight..he knows she wants him to leave..but he also knows if he pushes her out then she can spout off about Kathleen. She is going to paint a house that her family rented for her brother..he suspects it is also a house she may want to rent and take the kids..he is not about to pay the kind of child support and alimony she can get from a judge. They argue that Sunday morning..push comes to shove..Stacy is dead. Neither of these people ever knew the other person or the way their mind worked..they have always been separate , but very much alike.

I am not blaming Stacy for her death..but I do think that once she knew about Kathleen and Drew brought her into that whole murder she never had a hope in hell of leaving that relationship on her own. I just think it took her growing up a bit to realize that this was for real and not something she would ever walk away from.

We all know there's women out there who chase after convicted criminals and begin a prison romance. Some even marry a death-row inmate - Ted Bundy was one that comes to mind. So, I thinks it's very possible there's a woman out there who believes DP's "she left me for another man" story. If and when this case ever goes to trial, I predict we'll see a teary-eyed lady sitting in the courtroom hanging onto the defense's every word and shaking her head at the prosecution's case.

But don't most of those women go after younger, more "appealing" (in their minds, not mine!) convicts? Like all the women sending love letters and proposals to Scott Peterson, Menendez, Bundy, etc? I really think they have to be desperate and crazy, to even think of a "relationship" with someone sentenced to life in prison or death penalty.

True.........most of those who've become involved in prison romances do go after the younger men. I followed the Darren Mack case closely (wealthy Reno businessman who murdered his ex-wife and shot the judge presiding over their divorce - the judge survived). That case went to trial in October and one of those who testified was a young blond who had become romantically involved with Mack shortly before the murder. She's clearly still romantically involved with him, and another gal named Marcy took over Mack's Myspace page and has posted that she's visited him in jail. Mack is 46-year-old, but looks younger.

I agree that these women must be desperate or crazy to be attracted to prison inmates.

 

[philamena]

I don't think DP wants a mature woman. He wants someone young, that he can train and manipulate.

You got that right. Many abusive men love to date/marry much younger, pretty women.

 

[greeneyz]

If you look at the pictures of when Drew and Stacy were first together and then look at the ones that are more recent...Drew aged a lot and began looking like the "old man" that he was while Stacy blossomed into a beautiful young woman. I think he was jealous and very insecure, I believe he killed her in a jealous rage not to mention what she knew about Kathy's death added fuel to the fire.

 

[itsreenw]

Drew is not a man that can be without female companionship. He always has the next, before he has an ex.

I think Drew's next move is to buy a bride from another country. Some poor unsuspecting woman looking for a better life here in America.
One who makes him feel superior, who has no friends or support system in America. One who doesn't have an idea of what is going on in his life right now and wont ask too many questions if she finds out.

One who, should he dispose of, won't be missed right away because her family will be in another country.

 

[mysteriew]

I definitely do, especially if he became involved with her prior to Stacy going missing & the investigation of Kathleen's death.

I think DP is probably very charismatic with women he is attracted to. No matter how young or attractive Stacy was/is, to a man like DP there is a need for him to constantly seek out another who thinks he's as wonderful and important as he sees himself.

I agree. Abusers don't usually start relationships by being abusive. They start out by being charming and generous. Very often they are charismatic. It is only once they believe they have the other hooked that they let their true side show. One thing you will often hear from victims of DV is that it is like two different people. So DrewP can most likely be very charismatic, and may seem very honest sensitive and gentle. That is a facade that is useful with starting new relationships.

--->>>Indeed DP has made his beds before with the same methods.
He has slipped up this time, since he wants his attorney and everyone one else to believe his 'tale' that Stacy ran away with $25,000.00 and is ONLY missing.

What sort of a wedding ceremony can he possible have now, with a wife that is still alive and living 'somewhere' according to him. He would then become a bigamist IF he manages to get a 'mail order' bride.

Whose computer would he use to 'buy' another bride? The ISP has his puters. Maybe Steve has one. Would be best IF IF the new bride cannot read nor speak English, ya think?

My bet is he will try to get a NANNY, uh oh.

I can't imagine anyone in their right mind going after DP, but there are those women out there. Seems he already found a nut case in Peoria! LOL

There have been rumors he was seen out at bars with a blonde female. I don't know how much stock to put into this, but it wouldn't surprise me either. I have always felt he had another one in the wings and we just don't know about her yet! At least, Amber Frey had the guts to speak out and help sink Scott. If there was another woman in this mix, maybe she is helping the ISP and FBI. (Oh, the irony!)

What I believe is that it's not all about age with these guys. It's about "DUMB" or as they would put it "naive". These types of men are so dishonest with women that they want someone who isn't smart enough to be on to them, in their opinion.

I also think that men with BIG EGO's like a trophy wife. Not so much for themselves as just to make other men jealous. They have to have the "best" the best car, house, toys, computers, and WOMEN. It builds up the low self esteem they try so hard to cover.

Men like this have love/hate relationships with women. They like the high they get from the initial attraction. It increases their mood. Once the women show any signs of needing emotional nurturing their love turns to hate. They then pull away leaving the woman starved for emotional support. This is why I think Stacy was texting and e-mailing a few men. Wanting and needing the emotional support she didn't get from DP when her sister died of colon cancer recently.

A man like this sees emotional dependency as "mom", he then loses attention and seeks his "high" from another woman who he see's less like "mom" and more like a sexual object.

DP fit's the profile PERFECTLY of a man who is unable to love a woman on a deep level.

IMHO:angel:

So where is Drew right now...maybe on a cruise ship ..I know he and Stacy took the kids on a cruise before..maybe that's where he is?

Yeah, in his discussions about his marriages he kept mentioning romance. Like maybe he thought the romance was supposed to be forever, and he didn't realize that there could be anything deep past that.

 

[DeltaDawn]

I think that Drew thinks about Drew and what is in the relationship for Drew. I think the first marriage may have been based on something more..but when he blew that marriage with the cheating, I think that lead him to marriages based on what he needed tthe person to be at that time in his life.

What does Drew need now..someone compliant, but not restrictive, someone who only wants to have a good time but can be taken anywhere. He is retired..he is not looking for someone to keep house with anylonger. This experience has taught him the older two can take care of themselves and the younger two can go to daycare..etc..he wants someone totally different this time.

Maybe someone who has the same financial background as his, and someone that will keep their finances separated from his.

 

[Vegas Bride]

If DrewP does get involved with anyone, I hope it is someone as devious and cunning and as much as a user IMO as I think he is, it would be justice that somehow he could become the one used and abused. The black widow type who could target him for his money. As big as his ego is, he'd think she was attracted to him for his charm and sense of humor.

Then if 1 day he should go "missing" well heck, who'd really care?

[mysteriew]

From the articles that Cheko has posted it looks as though DrewP is back in town?
He is comparing the disappearance/reappearance of Solanki to the disappearance of Stacy. He is still not offering any explanation of why Solanki reappeared less than a week later, and there has been no trace of Stacy for two months. He doesn't note the differences- Stacy had children and Solanki didn't. There was no whisper of spousal abuse in the Solanki marraige, there are accusations of abuse in at least 3 of DrewP's marraiges and from a financee. There have been no whispers of threats in the Solanki marriage, but at least two of DrewP's wives have talked about threats from DrewP. And of course there is always the wife is suspected to be a homicide victim. And of course one previous possible attempt on Stacy's life. So all in all I think DrewP is picking on the wrong case to use as an example.

With the speed that LE started calling Stacy's case a suspected homicide, I still think LE found some type of evidence that Stacy had been murdered. Standard procedure that I have seen from other LE investigations has always been that for adults, if there is no blood no witnesses and no signs of a struggle then it is a missing persons case and they will not call it a homicide. Most cases they 'assume' it is a voluntary missing. So something in this case has made them determine a homicide.

I would also like to add that Stacy had been married for a few years,.....and Solanki had been married only about 7 months AND they're of Indian decent, which often times is ARRANGED!

I wish some reporter or interviewer would point out the differences between Stacy and the Solanki woman, and follow it up with, "With such stark differences between the two cases, how do you explain that?"

In addition to naming DP a suspect very quickly, the decision to re-examine the death of Kathleen Savio and to exhume her body happened very quickly too.

One of the things we know now that we didn't know earlier is that on October 29th, DP's step-brother, Thomas Morphey, attempted to commit suicide. He ended up in a hospital late on the night of October 29th, and the next day Tom's friend, Walter, went to the authorities and reported what Thomas Morphey had told him about helping DP move a container - a container Tom said was warm to the touch and he believed he had helped dispose of Stacy. So, on October 30th, LE knew about Tom helping DP move the container.

Thomas Morphey hasn't been seen or heard from. There's been no media interviews and as far as we know, he hasn't appeared before the grand jury. We're led to believe he's in a rehab facility. Yet, according to his sister, Tom was clean and sober for ten years until what happened on October 28th/29th.

It's now been more than two months since that time, and I suspect that Tom is recovered and is being protected by LE. I also suspect that Tom has told LE a lot more than what's been stated by the media. Perhaps Tom had some intimate knowledge of Kathleen Savio's death and that's what led LE to quickly begin to re-examine her death and exhume her body? Perhaps Tom knew more about Stacy's disapperance - how DP killed her, which led to LE looking for specific evidence. Remember when LE went back to the Peterson home on a second search warrant and only came out with one small item in a bag? I think something led to LE going back after a particular object.

I'm sure Tom and Steve are being watched VERY closely.
Steve really, one of the last ones to see 3rd and 4th wife, if you get my dift.:blushing:
