Why Did Drew Peterson Take Me On A House Tour?
Breaking News Today…Sgt Peterson is named a suspect in Stacy’s disappearance as the State’s Attorney moves to exhume the body of Kathleen Savio for further evaluation…now calling it a possible homicide case.
Many of you have asked about my experience being inside the Peterson home with Drew. It was late at night. The police had just swarmed the place…executing a search warrant…removing his computer and Drew told me all his weapons. I asked why he had so many rifles. We had seen them carried out. I asked him if he was a hunter. “No”, he replied “I just like guns”.
At this point, alone with Drew as he took me room by room to show me how he and Stacy and their children lived, I was in the basement. I did consider bolting…it felt scary and strange…but Drew was surprisingly subdued. I guessed he might have been drinking or was medicated but I don’t know for sure. I did not at any time feel I was in danger. But make no mistake. Drew had just told a news crew at the door “don’t ever return a library book late…see what can happen”. Behavior I can only term bizarre.
Drew told me he was a good kisser. He also told me things about Stacy I would not, out of respect, repeat. If you watched our reporting you know he put out there what he wanted the media to cover…his version of events…without regard to what some of those statements might have meant should his kids hear them. This is why I am not repeating everything he said.
Drew took me into the bedroom he shared with Stacy (police had taken away the bed linens), their bathroom (yes I looked at the tub), their closets and the basement. What I learned from that time in the house was and Drew admitted this…that the love that was evident for all four of the children (Stacy had two with Drew and adopted the two he had with Kathleen Savio) as I walked through their rooms and play areas was “all Stacy” he said. She built a forest in the kids bathroom. A canopy bed awaited one of their little girls each night. One son had planets on the ceiling. Yet I still don’t know why Drew took me on the tour. What was in it for him?
Why do you think he took me on that tour? Please leave your comments here.
And why did I go? I wanted to tell the story as best I could but like any of you I wanted to find Stacy. It was risky I know and maybe I’d rethink this next time.
My first thought today watching the latest developments unfold is what it means to the Savio family. For so many years they have had a hunch that their loved one, Kathleen, did not drown accidentally. Now they will get answers. So too will the children and family of Stacy. Speaking with the Will County Prosecutor’s office since visiting Bolingbrook last week I feel certain of this.
A judge and jury will decide ultimately what Drew may have done (or not done) but a fine tooth comb is now weaving its way through this entire timeline and investigation.
May justice prevail.

Why are the Peterson children still living in that house with him, when he is nothing more than a murder suspect?! The whole world knows about him and definately the Bolingbrook Police force are hiding evidence from the murder of first wife. Someone needs to get more warrants to investigate the whole evidence of the murder. Like the FBI, should be involved at all times, also the older children should be questioned in a proper manner by a child psychiatrist, either all together or one by one. They also know something about the disapperence of Stacy, a mother would tell the children if she feared for her life. They would be good witnesses for this whole missing persons case.
Please keep in mind that Drew is a Sociopath / Narcasiss / Psycopath… these types of people are completely “WIRED” differently than normal people. Drew is full of himself and he knows
he’s going down. It’s called Damage control. Drew will be convicted for the Savio case and get the
death penalty, they will then do a plea bargin if he confesses what he did with Stacy’s body. His time is running out. It’s all over for Drew he will more than likely take hostages… again we are dealing with a sociopath.
I really feel bad for the families involved with this man. I feel this guy the only way to catch him is to let him put his foot in his mouth and give himself away.
I think he was just showing off one more time to the media and public, one more dig under our skin. He wants as much attention as he can get, because he knows it’s all going to be over real soon. I think he is going to kill himself when he feels they’re getting close. How dare he say Stacy is where she wanted to be! No, she’s where he put her. Those poor children. It breaks my heart. They shouldn’t be with that killer of their Mothers. Hey, he and O.J. Simpson are of the same breed.
maybe he showed you the house because he wanted to impress you and maybe you’ll fall for him and defend him on TV. Wasn’t kathleen and stacy both were not so well off and came from not well to do families when they met him? maybe he thinks he’s a real catch and any woman will fall for him. He’s been living in his own little world and now its reality time!!!!! I hope they find stacy….hopefully alive somewhere but if not, I like for her to get a proper funeral so her loved ones can say good bye. How can a man do that to his kids…..may stacy and kathleen get the justice they deserve and watch over them kids from above.
He is trying to show you there is nothing there, trying to prove he is innocent??? I dont know. Lets see what others said . Tina Nowinowski
Most psychopaths exhibit bizarre behaviors that defy norms and explanation. However, there are always patterns. With DP, his pattern is that he does not like to be without female companionship (many marriages and affairs overlapping), and has a very high sex drive (part of pathological behaviors of neediness and control); and seems to feel more in control when with a female, especially attractive ones; because it serves his self image and ego thinking himself a charmer and Don Juan. It may also be a way to fill a role that his mother would have served, calming and reassuring him in a time of confusion and guilt, as she was a very doting and overly accepting of him.
You are a female, young, good-looking. Notice the first thing he said was that he is “a good kisser”. I find that highly irreverent, completely offensive to you, and a gesture of self-grandiosity. Just more of the DP sickness trying to spread and infect another, as he wants to feel that he is still “virulent” in his power. It was a kind of validation and a test of his abilities he has relied on for so long.
My two cents…
If I recall Scott Peterson also took a reporter through his and Laci’s home……I’m sure DP has used in his adult years ALL the training he learned from the police force in the different job capacities he took part in. Being retired from law enforcement….let me tell you one does….hear, learn and apply………………….
He wanted you and the world to believe he is innocent. In his mind that means going to extremes to show he has nothing to hide. This is why he was so candid with you about their relationship. You noted how subdued he was. You also noted his bizarre comment. These are signs of someone clearly trying to present themselves as “normal”. It may not seem normal to others, but in his mind he is making a strong effort that he is not a monster (especially given the media’s vilifying of him). By all accounts, this man is not acting normal and has not acted normal since the young woman went missing. Taking into account the history that has been revealed it’s not hard to see why. When one thinks of the word ’sleazy’, the image of Drew Peterson easly fits the bill. His history easily reveals both a narcissist and a megalomaniac. And more than likely a murderer. Having such a bad picture drawn up in the media, which he helped with, has forced him to promote himself, within his mind, as normal.

Taking you on a tour of the house gave him some extra time to interact with you. He was trying to “flirt” with you, or “rap” to you. By taking you around and making chit-chat, he was able to have extra time to look at you, fantasize about what he might do to you sexually, even ponder whether he might actually have a shot at nailing you if he played his cards right. I KNOW this sounds insane, but it’s something guys do, and in his case he’s doing it at a wildly inappropriate time.
I’m very late in submitting this comment, but I just came across this item. I’ll tell you my opinion as to why he took you on that tour: In a nutshell, he was “flirting” with you. Some would say he was “rapping” to you, I guess it depends where you’re from. Giving you a tour allowed him to have some extra time with you, presumably alone. He found you very attractive, no doubt, and this gave him the opportunity to look at you, talk shit to you, all the while picturing in his mind the various sex acts he would have liked to perform on you, and whether he could ‘hit that’ if he played his cards right. Now, this is a common ploy used by men, wherein they find some superficial reason to extend an interaction with a particular woman, as it allows them more time to do “the rap” and have their little fantasy. It’s a form of self-entertainment. This is common amongst all heterosexual men (as insane and delusional as it seems), and pretty much to be expected, under NORMAL circumstances. But in this case, as you said, it was nothing short of bizarre. I have such a bad feeling about this guy.
It’s anybody’s guess why Drew Peterson does anything. The man is obviously in love with one person…himself. As others have said, it’s bizarre that he would tell you he’s a good kisser. What’d he think you were going to do? Fall all over him and ask him to prove it? Makes me want to barf. My biggest concern is that if this ever does get to trial his lawyers will all be whining that he can’t possibly get a fair trial due to the high profile status this story has been given.
I do hope justice is served. If he ever gets to prison he will try to manipulate other inmates and guards. Wish I could be a little mouse to see him set in his place when he meets his match.
He wanted to show you that he has nothing to hide and gain your confidence. He would have done this with any female investigator, to help his image. His boasting has nothing to do with you, just his own ego. Defaming his young wife, was an unconscious way of showing his guilt, it backfired. His focus should be only on her welfare at this point, unless he’s guilty.
Why did he take you, an attractive woman, on a tour of his home and mention being a good kisser?
Clearly he’s looking for wife #5! Just look at the time frames between his previous relationships!
I also doubt he knows anything about parenting and is looking for a replacement adoptive mom.
Ewww gross!
When I hear about the Stacy Peterson situation,It makes me think about O.J Simpson,and how he got away with murder.I can just sense that Drew Peterson has killed her,and gotten rid of the body.I believe he strangled her so that there would not be a blood trail.I dont think they will ever recover the body unless he voluntarily says where he buried her.I know thats the reason he will not take a lie detector test.If they put more pressure on him perhaps he will slip up.Iam sure that he learned quite a lot about what to do as far as evidence is concerned during his tenure with the police dept.As far as that anonymous letter that was received is concerned he is the one who sent it.Maybe he was careless enough to leave a fingerprint on it.Iam praying that this will be resolved soon,and it will be proven that Drew Peterson is the murderer.
I think he had you walk through his house because he wants
people to see how “harmless” he is. How normal he is. There
is too much to suggest that he was anything but normal with stacy.
i feel he killed her because she was going to take away his conttrol of the situation.
same thing he did with wife number #3. i was married to an abusive, violent,
controlling man. You don’t tell them you are leaving, you make plans to escape.
any battered women’s counselor will tell you that.
If he said things to you that were inappropriate for him to say to you, you should tell
the police. even if you choose not to mention it in you written work.
you have a responsibility as a member of the press to tell the authorities how
creepy he really is. he thinks he’s covering himself in this whole deal. he will make
a slip up. let’s hope it doesn’t have to be wife number 5 to prove it. this guy will continue
to intimidate, threaten and carry out his threats unless someone stops him.
thanks for listening
It sounds like he is bored and lonely,just like a lot of people!!!
But I have to say I don’t think I would trust him that far???
Jamie,
If Drew shared intimacies that he and Stacey had particpated in, perhaps you were being “charmed” in hopes that you too would succumb to his guile. He evidently has a manner that seduces young beautiful women into believing that he is omnipotent, and unafraid to share the most intimate things with someone to gain their trust. Imagine if you will being Stacey when she learned that his third wife “drowned” in her bathtub after she had become pregnant with his baby. Was she that stupid not to have suspected for even a moment that Drew may have had something to do with that? And what about the enormous life insurance policy, that admittedly was directed to a protected trust for her two children, don’t you think that Drew may have thought that some of that money would eventually come his way?
You were probably safer than anyone who could have entered his home that night. You are young, beautiful and were willing to listen to him try, at that time, to construct a story which could be later referred to in an effort to invoke sympathetic sentiment from your viewing public.
What I have learned from this so far is that we have a calculating person who knows how to use the law, what evidence would be sought, what questions would be asked, and how to use the media. Just as his third wife’s death has been proven not to be an accident, believe that Stacey’s disappearance was a well planned, artfully carried out manipulation of a skillful player.
I am certain that some of the things that he shared with you were of a sexual nature. He was reading you the entire time. Don’t be surprised if he tries to reopen the book.
Why did he take you on tour…………..I would say he wanted you to focus on something else.
He took a bike ride……………..hmmmmm….. is keeping you busy so you can’t go out and find Stacy?
He reminds me of a rat in a maze all boxed in and no where to go.
I can’t wait to get on line and read up or watch the news to see what’s next.
Stacy, where is Stacy. I say call more experts in.
A cop killer. Twice. Very hurting to his co-workers who honor their badge.
I see a movie coming.
I hear the sound of a jail door shutting and Drew behind bars.
I wonder if he will want you to take a tour of that.
all i can say is this man is sick sick sick and sicker !!!!
he is a disgrace to the police profession !!!!
makes one not even want to trust police officers.
I think he invited you in because you’re attractive and he thinks he can schmooze anyone. He wanted to try to convince you he is a good guy.
He took you thru the house because your good looking and hold a position to benefit him. We all have encountered people like him in our life time but if something is to good to be true don,t go there. He picked Stacy from the cradle so he could manilupate and shape her to his liking. Kathleen went to Nursing School Joliet Collage, Stacy was enrolled Nursing School Joliet Collage. Creepy is what DP is.
Why a tour, did you ask? did he force you,are you female? Why do women have anything to do with cops, has any one ever known a female not damaged by the experience,,see what group has the highest divorce rate and every other domestic problem.
According the the PDF file of the ER visit of Kathleen Peterson, 3rd wife, she had been taking pre-natal vitamins. Was she pregnant at the time he hit her, which was her reason for attending the ER? If he would hit a pregnant wife, I would think he’s capable of doing anything. He deserves a fair trial as anyone would, but I certainly would remove those children from the home. Another thought, who were/are his enemies? Is there someone trying to set him up with a crime?
Just don’t go swimming with the guy. I know why you went - I would go if I were a reporter.
If he was on the sauce, he probably had his guard down. I’m guessing he wanted to impress you.
Funny you should mention the tub since I was wondering if he drowned Stacy.
This man seems to be wanting to steer everyone away from something else. Or then again, he may be telling the truth. We still need to wait for some tests to get back from the lab. We also need to keep interviewing him, he may slip up if he’s guilty.
Maybe someone could interview the children. Are they old enough? Sometimes children over hear discussions.?
Of course he gave you the tour because you are attractive. He’s probably been very successful in the past scoring with women. especially women who love uniforms. He ssems to not have a conscience, and I would think he has been like this most of his life - other people, friends and family should have noticed it. These people may abuse animals when they are young. I would guess he had a new girl in line to be the next Mrs. Peterson before his wife disappeared. Men don’t like to be alone. I understand he met Staci when she worked at a hotel to make money for college (hearsay), but it wouldn’t hurt to go to the areas he patroled, and ask around. I’d like to know where he met his other wives. I also read in a blog (hearsay again) that he may have raped a girl in the 70’s. Why doesn’t someone follow him when he goes off on his motorcycle? And where are his kids? They are probably so confused and need someone to love them now. I hear that he has got his retirement pay. Now he may ride away on his motorcycle and never come back.
If Staci is dead, I do not think her death would be via drowning because it would definitely point to him. So even if they do find the latest wife in the water, my guess would be that she did not drown. He does seem abusive. I would also suggest searching rental storage lockers, checking to see if the renters are who they say they are, he could have used an alias to rent a locker. (I mention this because there was a woman recently who was found alive in a drum in a storage locker. I can’t remember her name, but her toes and fingers were frostbitten when they found her).
Jamie,
From my viewpoint, he was hitting on you. It’s pretty obvious on that.
As for this case and story, I agree with everyone else. It’s very obvious it’s a cover-up and that the Sgt. was not a very good person. I do believe Drew Peterson is not the only one involved in the mysterious death of Kathleen Savio. It is possible that he had help. What kind of help and to what extent, I don’t know. But you have to look into all the possibilities. then you have to sort out those possibilities for probabilties. For example, why don’t you investigate the insurance money he received after Savio’s death and see, if possible, what transactions have transpired of the last few years.
I know Bolingbrook and the surrounding cities very well.
By the way, have they ever found the first two wives? What about them and their families? What is their opinions of Drew Peterson?
Drew Peterson gave you a boatload of information in very subtle ways.
First, I think he offered you the tour because he found you attractive-your his “type” and maybe, he thought he could charm you into believing that he is just a regular guy. By taking you on the tour of his house, he’s attempting to show you that he’s stable, a good provider, and that they had a normal homelife.
the “bizarre” comment to news reporters was his way of saying, “this is all so ridiculous.” It’s his way of downplaying all that is going on. He expects to be found innocent of all misconduct.
By telling you he is a “good kisser”, it can show his insecurity in the circumstance when he said it. Like a nervous reaction, much like when people laugh at innappropraite times. But this really depends on the context. But by speaking disrespectfully of his wife, it’s his way of justifying his argument that she just up and left him for another man.
I really feel this is a man who is out of control, and he is about to be held accountable for his actions on many levels. His personal life is a train wreck, his professional life is a train wreck and all the while he is trying to maintain that he and his wife were living a “normal” life. He is innocent until proven guilty, I pray every night for this young woman (who was 17 when they started dating and he was 47–a bit odd in itself) and I pray that someone, somehow, gets the facts on this man and his actions and that our justice system does the right thing with that information.
God bless his children, they are innocent bystanders in some very bad choices being made.
He was showing you a humanistic side, despite being a monster.
Drew took you on a house tour because he wanted to gain some public sympathy. He wanted to make it look like he was a loving father and show you the love and care that they (Stacy) had for the kids. He is a sick man. The fact that he was 47 dating a 17 year old is disturbing. And this man is a police officer? Did none of them make a point that this is illegal? She was a minor? I personally think some internal investigation needs to be done in the police department as to why so much of this behavior went unaddressed, Including his former wife’s death. I am truly disturbed that our legal system did not do a better job of serving and protecting.
What sane man would date an underaged girl? He invited you to his house, because you’re a pretty lady and the sergeant is, apparently, making his very last move to be close to a woman; he’s trying desperately to breathe one last breath near a woman. A good kisser? Eeeew! The women he came in contact were either fearful of him or failed to give him love. To sum it up, he’s a sicko–mentally ill and a sex addict.
Jamie:
I think that he was coming on to you. He didn’t invite Geraldo in and give him a guided tour.
If he wanted to make a statement he could have made it to Geraldo.
He is absent the ability to really love,or respect a woman. The disappearance of he wife doesn’t seem to be effecting him much. He is a sociopath. It’s now time to search for another woman that he can abuse and dominate.
I feel badly for his children especially the two oldest ones who have now lost two mothers.
I would also ask that you determine if Stacey’s mother disappeared during a period when Stacey knew,or was seeing her husband. The odds of two women from the same household disappearing are very high. A grown adult woman with some life experience would go ballistic if her 17 year old daughter began seeing a man like Sgt, Peterson considering his age. There was the built in ability to minipulate and dominate her. He should have been brought up on charges of statutory rape. If my daughter came home with someone like him, he would have been arrested.
I am amazed at the level of some people’s arrogance. Drew Peterson is an arrogant, manipulative control freak who thinks that because he can enforce the law, he is above the law. He thought he could manipulate you, too, and it sounds like he even tried to charm you a little. A good kisser???? What idiot would talk about that when his wife is missing? I hope and pray that they find Stacey’s body, that he is tried and convicted, and that the jury hands him the same sentence Scott Peterson received…a nice little spot on death row. The world would be a better place.
I pray for Stacey’s children and her family.
His reason for inviting you in was two fold and both are selfish. First, as you indicated he wants to share his story and represent himself to the media. He is probably a very self centered egomaniac and a control freak. Secondly but probably more important to him is you are an attractive women and he wanted to spend a bit of time with you. It is the same reason he told you he was a good kisser. (how is that comment appropriate given the circumstances) And the information you didn’t share with us protrays Stacey negativley so in his eyes you will go “poor drew” and hopefully show him some attention. I wish you the best
Maybe he wanted to try and convince people he was too loving, too good of a man and that his wife and himself had a good relationship. Also, he probably knew that you would make a public announcement of some sort about how “great” his home was and how loving the enviromnent around the children was made. But, looks aren’t every thing… a man can kiss and hug his wife in public and when they are alone he could be beating her, it’s called putting on a front…
First and foremost it should not be forgotten that he is a police offficer. Since he is a police officer I’m assuming he continues his education classes as required by his state yearly. If you haven’t been in law enforcement you have no clue as to the extensive training they go through. The combination of training and experience with “dumb” criminals, I believe has taught him how not to get caught. And on top of that a police officer mask his emotions on a daily basis. They see alot of incredibly horrific scenes and still have to maintain a professional composure, so he’s had “training” there too. He knows what he’s doing by masking his face, bringing reporters into his home…. his off the wall behavior is accomplishing exactly what he wants it too. Confusion.
Just curious what happened to is first two wives. I’ve somehow missed that in the news.
This sicko reminds me so much of the other sicko Peterson. Just because he is in law inforcement he thinks he can get away with murder! This makes me sick and the others in blue that helped cover up the murder of his 3rd wife. Come on folks let’s put all of them in jail!
Jody
Where is the person that helped him move the large storage container. Where did they put it? Telephone records? We need to see phone records and see where he placed the large container.
I have to agree with Boomer Sooner. Why was it necessary to put yourself in that situation? I could understand if if were for the safety of one of the children inside at the time you were there. I didn’t need to know any of that. The only information I need to know is that the children are safe and the whereabouts of Stacy and the outcome of his 3rd wife’s investigation. Period!
I assume you had a cameraman or woman with you on tour of home? He is guilty , but will play the innocent game out as long as possible. On a note for you Jamie, some of us would miss your segments on Fox , so keep safe on all stories. That goes for all your collegues too.
One comment……………………..I assume you had a cameraman or woman with you when you were shown the whole house? He’s guilty , however he will play this innocent act out as long as possible. Be safe , some of us would miss your segments.
GOD BLESS the news reporters! who have the guts to go into thee unknown! where were stacey petersons kids at the time of her dissapearance? I mean I know the older 2 had to be in school but what about the 2 youngest?I have been watching all the news coverage plus I work in Bolingbrook and haven,t heard a thing about where they were or him for that matter during that time frame was his time accounted for? And what does his being a good kisser have to do with anything that should be the last thing on his mind!!I mean if He was such a good kisser she wouldn,t have left him. if that,s in fact what she did! No I don,t think she left him.I have question or opinion if you will.I live in Lemont and I pass by a lot of woodsy areas on my way to and from work and I just wonder if the searchers have looked in these areas I mean it,s so close to the Peterson home.Please pass on the word if you can.I plan on trying to go help the search team myself if I can. Marie

This guy thinks that he’s a real ladies’ man. What normal guy–especially one who is a suspect in his wife’s disappearance–is going to tell you that he is a good kisser? How inappropriate? This is something that Scott Peterson would have done, too. What’s that tell you? This guy said that as a way of flirting with you, hoping that you would flirt back. He definitely doesn’t have a grip on reality.
I agree with the poster, Cheryl (I think). Was Mark Fuhrman invited to tour his home? If not, why not? Take Mark with you the next time, and see if Drew lets you in for a repeat performance.
This is the first that I’ve read about this story, but I believe he gave you a tour simply because he wanted to reaffirm mostly for himself that he has and still is providing for his family and that since he was able to get by after losing his 3rd wife… things will be o.k. and he’ll get by after this one… its business as usual for him and surely you will understand him… besides… he’s a good kisser… what a pathetic excuse for a human being!
I think that Drew Peterson is GUILTY. I have a daughter and grandson that I pray for everyday. They are both still alive because my daughter got away from someone just like this Peterson guy. He is a liar, manipulator, an actor and very good at trying to make himself the center of attention and the victim. I am so sick of this stuff. It is happening all of the time and no one really understands it until it hits them. Let me tell you, I certainly have a better understanding for domesitc violence. It is a LEARNED behavior. The family needs to be looked at as well once they figure out what happened to Stacey.
GOD BLESS STACEY and her family. I am praying for all of them.
Kim
I can’t believe this dude’s wife is missing, and he’s telling you he’s a good kisser….that is so GROSS!…I pray they find his poor dead wife….
Early on in this story, a neighbor said that he had helped Drew remove a large heavy storage container from the house. That’s the only time I’ve ever heard it mentioned. Was any followup ever done on this?
What in Heaven’s name possessed you to agree to participate in this tour? Was the experience really worth the risk?
Why Did Drew Peterson Take Me On A House Tour?
I think the more interesting/disturbing question is why did he tell you he’s a good kisser? I read that and immediately thought of Joe Namath being interviewed on the sidelines and telling ESPN reporter Suzy Kolber that he wanted to kiss her. I don’t know if that means he was drunk or under some kind of influence, but to me it was sick. If he had told me that … that would have been the end of the tour.
Jamie
Did anyone look at his airplane for the 4th wife? and how did he get over a million insurance from the 3rd wife
if he was married to the 4th wife at the time of the 3rd wife’s death.
Thank You Mary Anne Murphy in New Lenox,IL
Drew took you on a tour of his house because he perceived a signal from you that you liked him or that you were easy to manipulate. He was hitting on you when he said he was a good kisser. You were supposed to find out if that was true. This guy is out there and I really doubt he was trying to show you what a great family man he was or that he had nothing to hide. You were the date he was showing his home to period. I wonder if the reason he is hiding his face is because he can not look at it even in a mirror or on a news scene. Do you remember him looking in a mirror as you walked by any in the house? Do not expect him to be rational, he is in total denial of everything to himself as well as the public. He probably really believes he is in danger and has expressed this to people. He lost his control over Stacey and the house painting was the final straw.
Perhaps we can all wait and see if he is guilty before we hang him. You people are so darn shallow and simple minded. We do have a right in this country to be proven guilty. None of you idiots even knows this man. Now if he is guilty we should fry his ?@# but if hes not will all of you apologize to him and his family. I bet not. The media what a wonderful thing.
Jamie,
I am glad that you chose to keep certain aspects of the conversation confidential to the public, but I do hope that you relayed every word to the police.
Every thing I’ve read so far pertaining to Drew or the circumstances around these two cases can be wrapped into a single category, Drew’s control.
It’s disgusting, but not surprising that a man like him would try to flatter himself on you in order to lure you into his web of lies, even among his very circumstances. IMO, his behavior toward you only proves his insecure self, which he obviously hides from by manipulating the minds of other people. That desire for control probably had everything to do with him becoming a cop to begin with. jmho.
I’m glad you are safe. I’m glad you are doing what you are doing. And I’m glad you keep all of us updated. Keep up the great work! But please be safe!!
Why did he take you on a tour of his house?
Probably because the man is a control freak….and a warrant on his house was something that was out of his control. Taking you on a tour and telling his “side” of things, he was taking back some control in his life.
Also, you are attractive and he’s on the prowl for his next victim….err, I mean “wife”. Better watch out!
Why did he take you on a tour of his home? This freak reminds me of Ward Weaver.
For those of you who don’t remember Ward Weaver; do a search on Miranda Gaddis and Ashley Pond. Ward invited a reporter into his home for a tour and lo and behold Miranda was suspected as being in the freezer at the time of the interview. Ashley was buried in a barrel under a concrete slab that he and the reporter were standing on. Looking back at the interview you can see Ward laying his hand on the freezer and looking very sheepish with a smile on his face. As the reporter walked by the freezer you can see Ward look back at her and smile. Same with when they were standing on top of Ashley on the concrete slab. Sociopaths….Very very sick individuals.
I’m glad you got out of there safely but I advise you to think back and think about his movements and eye contact. It could be a clue as to where Stacey is.
I think he was sizing up wife number 5. In denying he’s done anything wrong and when the truth comes out perhaps might even say..’they deserved it’. Being in denial allows him to be open for any other opportunities that come his way..ie Jamie..kinda pathetic when ya think about one wife missing and exhuming another..what happened to his first two wives?
He took you into the home because you are young and attractive. He could have taken any reporter into the house but for that reason he chose you. Looking at his track history I am sure he is on the prowl for wife #5, hopefully he gets locked up before then.
I heard that Drew Petersons first wife dies of Natural Causes. I figure she was about 28 so that may be a murder as well. Who rarely dies at 28 of Natural causes? I hope someone will clear this up!!1 wonder what happened? He then marrys at 28 to another woman???
Get the kids out of that home!!!
The reason he took you on a tour is so he could have complete control once again.
Why did he give you a tour? The answer is simple- he is a sociopath. Time and time again I see these tragic stories because these sociopaths are more prevalent than the population is aware of. I highly recommend to you and your viewers the book”The Sociopath Next Door”… having this author who is a psychologist on FOX would do a service to the public until we become aware of how they disguise themselves in society we will continue to see thsese tragedies.
boy…who thnks of what a good kisser they are when their (4th) wife is missing.. is that what you would tell a guest - then take them on a tour? I think you got the tour because you seemed like the one that would buy his story.. and not judge him… he is sick sick sick. His behavior screams weirdo.
I think he took you to gain sympathy from a beautiful woman
I would say the first two wives of Drew Peterson are probably hiding and I would guess he has more children. Those children are probably adults. If I were them, I would be hiding from the media too.
What ashame!
Were the children there? What were the poor things doing?? Oh my heart bleeds for these kids.
Hopefully Stacy will be found. If I were he, and was innocent, I would be beyond grief. The man shows no remorse at all.
Was the coroner who examined his last wife’s body incompetent, or was he a friend of Peterson’s?
Sounds very fishy to me. This is obviously a very sick man, and the children should definitely be with someone else during this time. I think if they know anything, they would be terrified to tell.
i think he let you in because you are a beautiful lady. you need to be careful around someone like him. yours richard gibson
Why did he take you on a tour of their home? It is difficult to view the world through some peoples’ minds. Drew Peterson is one of those people. Typically, inappropriate and shallow jokes in a time of extreme hardship are the mind’s effort to avoid deeper contemplation of a serious matter at hand. Reports and photographs of Drew Peterson’s erratic and inappropriate behavior offer a glimpse of a man who lives a self-absorbed world. The things he said (and you did not print out of your own good character - thank you) were an attempt to character assassinate his wife. However, what he offered you was the most bare and honest view of himself, for everything the self-absorbed say about another person is in fact the most honest appraisal of themselves.
Who knows what is really going on in that guy’s head, but if you go back be careful and keep someone with you. This guy may decide to go out in a blaze of glory and we wouldn’t want you caught in the crossfire!
Where are Drew Peterson’s first two wives?? Why haven’t we heard anything from or about them? If it has been covered, I must have missed it, but I have been following the case very closely and I don’t recall hearing anything about them.
