Just received this from the Will County State’s Attorneys office - confirming the Illinois State Police have notified Drew Peterson and his attorney that it has revoked his Firearm Owner’s Identification Card. This is interesting since Drew, though named a suspect in the disappearance of fourth wife Stacy, has not been charged with any crime.

The revocation of his I.D. card follows an order by a judge that he should get his guns back…an order the prosecutor argued against. So does this move signal a concern about Drew having guns around his children? Could charges be imminent in either the death of his third wife Kathleen Savio or the disappearance of fourth wife Stacy?

What do you think?

Here is the release from James Glasgow’s office:
