If you're upset about your sister's relationship, do you commit suicide instead?
Drew Peterson reportedly was one of the first cops on the scene
Drew Peterson apparently had a girfriend name Monica while he was married to 2nd wife, Victoria Rutkiewicz (They were married from 1982 and divorced 02/18/1992). Apparently, according to Drew Peterson's former best friend, Ric Mims, Monica's brother Steve was very upset about this relationship yet he committed suicide hanging himself in a garage, some felt was suspicious.
[The 1986 date was calculated 21 years ago since Mims said this happened when he was around age 20 or younger]

Partial Transcipt BELOW:
MIMS: This thing we're trying to put all the dates and everything together, this afternoon, it happened right when Drew was married to Vicki and he would sneak Monica in the house.
GRETA: Whose Monica? Monica was the girlfriend?
MIMS: Yeah and right and her brother, the family lived like across the street and down the street from them. I knew the brother was very upset with them dating and I, were going back now when I was in my twenties maybe, not even that old when all this happened but with the patterns of Drew, anything with his girls that he was dating with or anything it seems that somebody dies around there.
GRETA: Let me ask you though, there's no proof that Drew did anything with the brother who died, the brother of the girlfriend?
MIMS: Right, there's no proof yet but were working on a story to find out the details on it. It's just a little suspicious.
(SNIP)
GRETA: Okay the guy who committed suicide, was it a big surprise or had he been, had he been depressed and had troubles before that?
MIMS: No, it was a shock to all of us, this was a group of kids I grew up with and it was a shock to all of us.
(SNIP)
MIMS: I don't know all the details of that, I mean we were kids back then Greta, so I've asked a friend of mine who does some research at the local papers to help me with this and we're getting names and we've contacted the girlfriend. She didn't want to talk to nobody but I'm going to get in touch with her here shortly maybe she'll talk to me about it because we were all fiends and just see, because what I'm afraid is this turning into a pattern for him.
(SNIP)
GRETA: Did he ever say anything about his girlfriend's brother, the one whose about your age, with you?
MIMS: Yeah we've talked about it because I can't believe he killed himself and he's like yeah he had a drug problem and you know and was depressed, and I was like that's not the Steve we knew. He said I don't know, I was one of the cops first on the scene and he was hanging in the garage.
