SO is watching this with me and they are doing a good job convincing him Scott could be innocent. I still think he did it. I just don't know who else would have... Either way it's so fucked up. My exact thoughts. |

The thing that kills me is the Viagra. I guess he expected to meet some ladies while camping on the run in Mexico? I have no idea what he does with it. He had a bunch of affairs and no one mentioned ED that I recall. Maybe he planned on taking a bunch of unisom and viagra and having a wild night alone. Men that don't have ED take Viagra too.

I'm caught up mostly. I found it interesting that the detectives noticed how obsessive Scott was while they were in his home. Making sure their drinks were on coasters and putting gloves on to wipe down the cars because one of the detectives hit one car with the door of the other. That tells me that he's more than capable of cleaning up a crime scene thoroughly. Also listening to him blatantly lie on the phone calls with Frye with such ease tells me he's a sociopath. Them pointing out these things made me uncomfortable because I would notice these things and they would replay over and over again in my mind with my anxiety.
Also lying to Amber is meh to me. He just met her and was on the phone. Much easier to lie that way IMO.

It seemed less gross to me if he had a medical problem and always had this in his car than if he planned on using it for a good time, but he still would be having sex with women while his wife was either dead or missing so nothing I can rationalize would make this less awful. |

I do genuinely feel his family believes he is innocent and they genuinely love Laci and Connor.

The theory was he filled 4 milk cartons I believe with concrete and tied her limbs to them and there was a chain involved to weigh her down. Most likely they either rotted or were eaten away by sea life. Yet there are people who swear up and down that there was nothing in his boat. And the people that saw her walking the dog. |

Oh for sure. I feel a lot less weird if he always used them vs him acquiring these drugs while his wife was either dead or missing. |

New episode aired last night. This time I actually checked it, and it was not just the preview.

On 9/14 ABC is also doing a Laci Peterson special.
I'll be interested to see how the two are different.

I 100% believe Scott is a scumbag BUT there is literally no evidence that he actually killed her. (I mean he totally could have killed her) I can't believe they were seeking the death penalty with so little evidence. |

Yeah, I just finished the episode, and I'm not feeling so good about the evidence.
I can't wait for next week's episode. I do think it's the phone calls with Amber and his general demeanor during the search and the trial that did him in. It's really hard not to think of him as guilty when you hear him flirting with his mistress while his wife is missing.

I mean I still think he did it. But the lack of evidence is astonishing. DH and I are hooked on this show. He's not convinced it was him and keeps saying that there must be more evidence since he was convicted.

This episode was great. I'm still shocked they convicted him on what they had. I'm sure he did it, I just can't figure out how unless he chopped her up before bringing her to the marina or why they have so little evidence.

He tied weights to her neck and limbs, so they ended up separating from her body as time went on and she decomposed (sorry that is so gross). My theory is he strangled her, so there was probably very little physical evidence. |

How would he hide the body in the boat and how did he throw what they say was around 150 pounds out of the boat without capsizing it? That's the part that makes me wonder if he hadn't chopped her up. |

I'm wondering if this gets him a new trial or appeal or however it works.
I know there's more to the series, and I think there's more than ample proof of him being a douche canoe, but so far, no compelling evidence he murdered his wife.

I really paid attention to this story when it happened. And I'm sad I missed this was on. How many episodes have there been? Is there a way to watch the episodes that have already aired so I can catch up?

It's his creepy ass lies to Amber that did it. It was so unsettling how smoothly he kept his Europe vacation bullshit while his wife was missing.

Is Janey married to Scott's brother? I'm not sure if I would have such conviction about my dirt bag brother in law to sit on TV and defend him like that.
