"National Enquirer reports:"
 
   I just got back from the grocery store, where I read in this weeks National Enquirer, that they found a fingerprint on the duct tape that was used on Laci...

They are reporting that an officer in Modesto says that they have a match for the fingerprint....


It belongs to Scott Peterson.

   Gosh, I hope it's true. Finally some solid evidence. (i'm sure there's more but this has been drawn out that I forget) Wonder what MarkG will say about this? Something silly I'm sure. Not sure if you can believe everything your read, but I hope it's right.

It's about 4-5 weeks til the prelims right? I sure hope it doesn't get postponed again.

   Rosario...why would you '...hope it's true' ?
I hope it's just another of those tab rumors that always float and headlines that SELL.

BTW, what part of Laci's body was the duct tape with fingerprints found? I must have missed the report...

   Hoping that Laci's killer is identified is not wrong.

I would rather have a fingerprint that is conclusive on the identity than a bunch of circumstantial evidence.

As far was what else was said in the article, I don't know. I only turned to the page that it was on and skimmed to see who the print matched. I don't buy or read those "rag mags" and haven't since the death of Princess Diana. I am a firm believer that it was the writers of those "rag mags" that chased her down that night, causing the driver to go faster and faster to get away from them.

I don't know how much you can believe in those mags. But leaks can and do happen, so it may be true, I guess we will have to wait and find out. It says that a Modesto officer or investigator is the source.

But in conclusion, there is nothing wrong in hoping the report is true, wanting her killer POSITIVELY identified is what we all want, no matter if it is Scott or someone else.

   ...what part of Laci's body was the duct tape with fingerprints found? I must have missed the report..."

Yes they said that Patsy did it...and I've always treated the rag mags as pure gossip...the gossip that sells. That is what it seems our society thrives on. I see it in these forums and in all missing children forums. It doesn't take but a simple glimpse to see the 'hits' on the title subject to know where our society is most interested. What a shame it is!

7. "? Again-Again ?"
In response to message #6
 
   Please read the last line of the first post..., which according to you comments,you apparently overlooked.

My question is still not answered and apparently the answer doesn't exist or no one seems to know
WHERE ON LACI'S BODY WAS THE DUCT TAPE FOUND THAT HAD THE FINGER PRINTS ?

How can my question be any more clearer?

   I don't mind saying that I hope the article is incorrect. Although I do hope Laci's killer is found, I also hope that the killer is not Scott. The whole crime is tragic enough, but would be devastating if the killer proves to be her husband. I've said this before and I believe it more strongly now than ever: I hope Laci and Conner will not be remembered as having been murdered by Laci's husband/Conner's father. Although terrible enough if someone else did the deed, how tragic it would be for them both if Scott actually killed his wife and child. Think of all the heartache and grief it would resolve if someone else did it: Jackie and Lee Peterson; all Scott's siblings; Sharon and Laci's stepfather; Laci's father; her brother and sister; and all their friends. Think of the relief they would feel. It's bad enough that he ran around on her. Surely people can't hope that what the Enquirer printed proves that he killed her, too.

LadyBug, I can't remember reading of any tape found on Laci's body. Maybe someone else can answer your question.

   I don't think that anyone hopes that Scott is found to be their killer... I think that the general hope is that we all want her killer found, beyond a shadow of a doubt.

The ideal is that the killer is found without questions, without any juror members or watchers, asking themselves if the right man is behind bars.

We never got a report on the tarp that was found either, did it have duct tape on it?

It is possible that the duct tape exists on Laci's body, very little was released on what they found. We know they found some sort of wrap or tarp close by her where her body was found.. there were reports of Scott carrying a tarp to his vehicle weren't there?

I guess it is possible that the tarp, Laci and the fingerprint is what will tie it all together in the end.

It wouldn't be the first time that duct tape has been the thing that solves the case.

10. "answer to Ladybug's question"
In response to message #9
 
   I skimmed through the article yesterday while in line...it says fingerprints were lifted off of duct tape attatched to a black tarp that washed up near Laci's body. It was being tested at Contra Costa Sheriff's dept. They're removing the tarp from the tape to examine the prints. They remove the tarp from the tape (not the tape from the tarp) so it doesn't distort the print or stretch it. It mentioned that they're looking for 8 minutiae points on the print which is the minimum number to be considered a match to a specific person.

The tests were being done on the sticky side of the tape from what I understood. And that prints on the sticky side can still be found and identified even after months in the water. I'm sure there are prints there since I don't think a person could actually work with duct tape with gloves one.

I'm only going by memory from what I read, and I didn't read the whole article. I should have just bought it.

And to clarify - all i read days ago was the headline "Fingerprint nails Laci's killer" YES, I do hope that true. But I also hope it is not her husband or anyone else she may have known. But unfortunately, it is my gut feeling that he did do it or knows something. There's just way too many coincidences and crazy stories for me to believe. But- that's MY opinion. We all have one.

   Tape was found on Connor I think?
I wonder if this tape is consistent with the other tape found?

   I have heard that the tape found on Conner was similar to audio cassette tape, not adhesive tape. That would definitely sound like debris in the water that he got tangled up in. But then, I've also heard it called "adhesive tape", so that would be entirely different. So far, I haven't heard the tape on Conner called "duct tape".

National Enquirere isn't exactly known for it's credibility.....in fact, the opposite, in my opinion. Just recall all the blatant lies and garbage they've printed about Patsy, John, and Burke Ramsey.

I'm waiting for the prelim, myself....
