2007-11-07 www.suntimes.comNovember 8, 2007 Peterson & Attorney Grand Jury Peterson ILL "Eleven days after Stacy Peterson vanished, her police officer husband was called to testify Wednesday before a Will County grand jury. Hours later, Coroner Patrick O'Neil said the 2004 death of Bolingbrook police Sgt. Drew Peterson's previous wife should not have been ruled accidental." Accompanied by two lawyers, Drew Peterson spent about two hours Wednesday afternoon inside a Will County office building in downtown Joliet, then left hurriedly about 3:30 p.m. Peterson, 53, who was clean-shaven and dressed in a dark suit and tie, didn't respond to questions from reporters as he hustled out of the building with one attorney, then jumped into a waiting car driven by another lawyer. Lawyer: '... nothing to say' "This is an ongoing investigation," attorney Fred Morelli said as he left the building with Peterson. "We have nothing to say." |

But common sense says she's not." ILL "Scott Rossetto testified Wednesday before a grand jury investigating the case. As CBS 2 West Suburban Bureau Chief Mike Puccinelli reports, it was the third time Rossetto was called before a grand jury to testify about what he knows about Stacy's disappearance more than three weeks ago. The first two times he did not take the stand, but this time he did." - "Rossetto's brother dated Stacy Peterson six years ago, before she met and married Drew Peterson. Three and a half weeks before she disappeared, Stacy contacted Rossetto and they began communicating regularly. But Rossetto says he was not romantically linked with Stacy. When asked if he feared that Drew Peterson might have hurt Stacy Peterson, Rossetto said he could not say, but also admitted that his gut says something is wrong. "To tell you the truth I don't even know if I should refer to her to her in the past and present tense. It's kind of aggravating," Rossetto said. "I really, really hope she's OK. But common sense says she's not." |

"It's hard to imagine you would be [arrested] if you haven't done anything wrong," the former Bolingbrook, Ill., police sergeant told NEWSWEEK in an exclusive interview Thursday." - ""I wish something would happen one way or the other," he said. "Let's get this going. Either get me or don't get me." - "He may soon get his wish—and he seems prepared for the worst, despite his insistence on his innocence. That's why he has arranged for his four youngest children to be taken in by a family member, whom he did not identify, and has set aside money for their care if daddy is taken away in handcuffs. "My children will be provided for," he said." "Peterson also revealed that his son from his first marriage, Stephen, 28, was called before the grand jury on Thursday [11/29/07 ?]. Peterson declined to comment about the specifics of his family members' testimony." |

A close friend of Stacy's who often watched her kids, Bychowski said she talked to the boy after her disappearance. "I think he heard them fighting. And then he heard them stop fighting," she told NEWSWEEK. "I have no doubt that kid knows something." |

 2007-12-13 abcnews.go.com December 13, 2007 MORE VIEWS OF BLUE CONTAINER PICS HERE ILL "Rick Mims, Peterson's long-time friend, told a grand jury last week that he and Peterson bought three such containers for about $100 from AmeriCable, where they both worked part-time in 2003, according to a source close to the investigation. Peterson put two of the containers on a shelf in his garage, but after Stacy vanished, so did the containers, Mims testified. A state prosecutor and the grand jurors themselves questioned Mims for approximately 10 minutes about the containers, the source said, asking in particular about the items' handles. Mims turned over photographs of the containers, and ABC News obtained copies of those photos. The new pictures have reportedly prompted state investigators, local police and volunteer searchers to shift their attention from what was originally thought to be a blue barrel to a square blue container." |

Ric Mims at GJ Ric Mims to Peterson Grand Jury
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mims:
"Everything in the Enquirer is true." ILL "Mims, the one-time friend of embattled former cop Drew Peterson, made his second appearance before the special grand jury and said he is slated to come back for yet another at the end of next month. "They asked about the week I was there," said Mims, who holed up with Peterson immediately after the retired police sergeant's wife went missing Oct. 28. Mims then turned on Peterson and sold a story suggesting he suspects his old friend was behind the young wife's disappearance. Mims says he and Peterson have not spoken since. "I'm trying to distance myself from that whole area there," said Mims, who was accompanied to the court appearance by his son." Following his appearance, Mims said he stood by the recent Enquirer story, saying, "Everything in the Enquirer is true."

Ken Teppel. When her friend, age 40, tried to intervene, Robinson allegedly punched her in the face, authorities said. Robinson dragged his ex-girlfriend and the friend into the apartment of a third woman and again tried to choke the ex-girlfriend, Teppel said, and when the friend tried to separate them, Robinson punched her in the face several times, knocking her to the floor. Robinson left, and when police arrived, they saw bruises and cuts on the friend's face, Teppel said. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bolingbrook police sought a warrant for Robinson's arrest on battery charges, but given his friendship with Peterson, Glasgow referred the case to state police, Teppel said. He said the charge of witness intimidation was not lodged by his department.

Michael J. Robinson Peterson:
"He was just a kid on the street that I befriended, tried to keep him out of trouble" ILL "Meanwhile, a friend of Drew Peterson's was released Wednesday [01/16/2008] from the Will County Adult Detention Facility after posting 10 percent of a $50,000 bail after he was accused of beating his ex-girlfriend and her friend, then allegedly threatening a witness. Michael J. Robinson, 34, of Bolingbrook was charged with felony intimidation, misdemeanor battery and domestic battery, according to police and court documents."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"His [Michael Robinson] friendship with [Drew] Peterson came to light after Ric Mims, a one-time friend of the former sergeant, told the National Enquirer that Robinson provided Peterson with a cell phone after police seized his old one as part of a search warrant. Mims said Peterson and Robinson behaved suspiciously, communicating in handwritten notes. Peterson said the only note passed contained his cell phone number. Peterson could not be reached for comment Wednesday but said last week he has known Robinson for nearly two decades. "He was just a kid on the street that I befriended, tried to keep him out of trouble," Peterson said."

Executor:
James B. Carroll
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Witnesses:
Alex J. Morelli
Gary L. Marcolina
THE WILL 03/02/1997
FULL Transcipt HERE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 03/02/1997 WILL was hand written by Drew Peterson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CRAIG WALL: "Now that long forgotten Will, evidence in the investigation."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WILL WITNESSES:
Alex Morelli, Drew's former partner in the BBPD says he wants nothing more to do with Peterson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gary Marcolina, Drew's best man at his wedding refused to talk to the media
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drew's Uncle, James B. Carrol declined to comment ILL 01/15/2008 Craig Wall (www.myfoxchicago.com) reporting FOX NEWS EXCLUSIVE (VIDEO):
"Drew Peterson's Will With Kathleen Savio Subpoenaed by Grand Jury"
CRAIG WALL: "The date of the WILL, March 2, 1997, nearly seven years later almost to the day Kathleen Savio would be found dead in her bathtub. That simple handwritten statement would become her Last Will and Testament." - "It had been a bitter divorce. Her husband was in the middle of an adulteress affair with 19 year old Stacy Peterson and while Kathleen remembered to change the beneficiaries on her life insurance there was still that WILL." - "So despite the divorce, Drew Peterson got all her furniture, jewelry and the money from the sale of the home, about $288,000 thousand dollars. He was also named guardian of the children's million dollar trust fund." - "But take a close look at the will."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DREW PETERSON: "There really wasn't nothing sinister about it, just something simple if something happen if we were on vacation." - "I wrote up the WILL with Kathleen's instructions and we simply had a couple friends that were over to witness it and that was that simple."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CRAIG WALL: "Those friends turned out to be Peterson's former partners in the Bolingbrook Police Department and according to the Savio family, Drew's best man at their wedding. Alex Morelli, Drew's former partner says he wants nothing more to do with Drew and has nothing positive to say about him. He said Drew has turned his world upside down. Best man, Gary Marcolina took off when we tied to talk to him. The old Will names James B. Carrol, Drew’s Uncle, names him executor and gives him full control. He confirmed the account that he was going on vacation but declined to comment further. Once the Will was admitted into court, Carrol promptly fired Kathleen's attorney and discharged another lawyer appointed by the court to watch out for the best interest of the children. So Mr. Carrol had an obligation not to be looking out for Drew but to look out for Kathleen."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CRAIG WALL: "So who does it appear the executor was looking out for in this case?"

Helped move car
TO Clow? ILL 01/07/2008 Craig Wall (myfoxchicago.com) reporting (VIDEO):
"Peterson Says Racy Message Proves Stacy Had Affair"
CRAIG WALL: "Could a racy text message sent to the missing Stacy Peterson be the clue that leads investigators to some answers? Her family and friends are skeptical. But as Craig Wall reports, Drew Peterson and his attorney claim the mystery message is very significant."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"In the meantime the grand jury has issued a second subpoena to Michael Robinson, a friend of Drew's recently arrested in a domestic battery incident. A source says Robinson is suspected of helping Drew move Stacy's vehicle to the Clow Airport near their home the very night she disappeared."

Surveillance took place in late 2003 or early 2004 ILL 01/24/2008 (www.chicagotribune.com) New Stacy Peterson sighting called false
"Grand jury scheduled to meet for at least 4 more months, prosecutor says"
"Today [01/24/2008 Will Co Grand Jury] we talked about mostly some stuff that went on with the Savio case, some surveillance things I did with Drew on her," [Ric] Mims said, shivering outside the Joliet building. "We followed her a few times. He'd have me watch her a few times at work while he did whatever it is he needed to do. "I was helping him. I thought he was going through a divorce, and just needed somebody to help him." - "He said that he and Peterson, a former Bolingbrook police sergeant, would communicate by two-way radios, and that Peterson suspected Savio was having an affair. The surveillance took place in late 2003 or early 2004, Mims said, which would have been after Peterson was already married to Stacy but before his divorce settlement with Savio was finalized."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"When asked if he felt bad about his participation, Mims said his biggest regret was the day he met Peterson. "I was not participating in [any] harassment. I never participate in any harassment," Mims said. "At the time, I was just helping a friend. . .with this, what I thought was going through a divorce. I thought he was just trying to find dirt on her for a divorce. I regret the day I met Drew Peterson now, to tell you the truth."

"Grand jury scheduled to meet for at least 4 more months, prosecutor says"
"Stacy Peterson's sister, Cassandra Cales, and their friend Bruce Zidarich also appeared before the grand jury Thursday [01/24/2008]. They wore Find Stacy Peterson T-shirts and buttons, and left after about three hours in the grand jury room. "It went well. They just asked how Stacy was. She was a good person," Cales said, as the pair looked for their car in the parking garage. She said it was the first time she had appeared before the grand jury. She declined to share details about what she was asked. "They're just working the investigation. I trust the police, and I'm not going to say anything that would hurt the case," she said. "We went over a lot of stuff."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"[Bruce] Zidarich, who was the last person known to talk to Stacy besides Drew Peterson, or perhaps her children, said he was quizzed [By the Will Co Grand Jury 01/24/2008] about that last phone call. Stacy was supposed to go help him paint the interior of a house that day. "She said she had been laying in bed for a couple of hours. I told her about the painting at the house. She said it was going to be a long day," Zidarich said, adding that she told him she was in bed because she was depressed."
