Sad, yes. Guilty,uh... yeah...c'mon. Who dyes their hair and hops in a car for Mexico after his wife goes missing? Please!

But you know what? WHO-CARES!!

This story was relevant for one reason and one reason only: The press was all over this because they were an attractive young couple and gasp how could this happen?!! Oh lordy!!!

This is no doubt a sad story, and I feel bad for the families, but why should I know what is essentially, their own private business?

If this were an unnactractive couple or people of color, the media wouldn't have touched this story with a ten foot pole. Stuff like this happens EVERYDAY all across the country. Billy Bob who kills his 250 pound wife, so he can take off with the trashy tramp girlfriend down at the local dive bar doesn't make headlines. That stuff, at the very least, gets some air-time on 'America's Most Wanted' or 'Cops'. It's a little sad that we have to get fixated on media fodder like this when it isn't much different from anything else that unfortunately, has to unfold this way

NEXT!!!!!

I only halfway agree with this...Scott Peterson's case is interesting because we are dealing with a intelligent sociopath, one who lies like an expert..his lies are what made it interesting. When "billybob" does the same thing to go with a trailer princess, no one is interested because the case is so obvious. This one, although also pretty obvious, was much more interesting because of the lies he told!

I would like to add that even if this creep really did not do it..he should get jail JUST FOR LEAVING HIS PREGNANT WIFE ALONE ON CHRISTMAS EVE!!!!!!!!!!! What kind of a scumbag does that?
