"Laci has brought her friends together, Laci brought this city together and to some extent Laci brought this nation together,"
Laci Rocha Peterson, 8 months pregnant,
was last seen by her sister, Amy, in the late
afternoon of December 23, 2002. She spoke to
her Mother at 8:30 P.M. This would be the last
time anyone ever saw or spoke to her again.
A search began. For 4 long months it continued.
Then the worse was announced, both Laci and
her son Conner were found on the shores of
the San Francisco Bay in April 2003.
Soon afterward, her husband, Scott was arrested
for her murder and that of their unborn son,THE
TRIAL BEGAN....SCOTT WAS FOUND
GUILTY OF 1ST DEGREE MURDER
HE WAS FORMALLY SENTENCED
TO DEATH ON MARCH 16, 2005
A public Memorial for Laci Peterson and her
unborn son was held Sunday, May 4, 2003
in her hometown of Modesto --on what would
have been her 28th birthday.
"It should have been a birthday party for a woman
turning 28, holding a nearly 3-month-old baby in her arms.
Instead, a community gathered to say good-bye to
Laci Peterson and her unborn son, Conner."
Rusty Dornin - CNN
I am of no relation to Laci or any of her or Conners Family. I remember all of the details of the investigation from went it first started in 2002. I felt that Scott was guilty from the very begining. The Story broke my heart from the very begining, Being a young mother myself at the time, I would watch the news every night and fall into much more Heartbreak each time as the case went on and Laci was not found..Then in even worse devistation when Conner was found then Laci. To not much suprisement Scott did not shed a tear over it..I did ....and I never met Laci or her Family... I read Sharon Rocha's Book " For Laci" This book moved me I cried sometimes. The book is from Sharon's View of everything that had happened.
I remember the day that Scott's verdict was read by that Jury I was watching the television in fact with my stepdad Steve, and when that verdict was read we both jumped from where we were sitting and yelled "Yes!!GOOD justice"

As Modesto Detectives and Uniformed Guards lined the
courtroom walls, Scott Peterson remained quiet and stoic as the Jury's recommendation of DEATH was read.
Scott Peterson should die in San Quentin's death chamber for murdering his wife, Laci, and their unborn child, the jury said today.
Prosecutors say Peterson killed his pregnant wife, Laci Peterson, around Christmas 2002.
They say he wanted to be free of his marriage and fatherhood so he could pursue a relationship
with a massage therapist, Amber Frey, who was under the impression that he was unmarried.
Published June2, 2003
Laci Peterson's family has entered the political arena, lending their names Wednesday to legislation that would make killing a fetus a distinct federal crime. Peterson's mother, Sharon Rocha, father, Dennis Rocha, stepfather, Ron Grantski and her siblings consider the bill introduced in the House on Wednesday and re-introduced in the Senate a fitting tribute to a woman eight months pregnant when she was killed.
"As the family of Laci Peterson and her unborn son, Conner, this bill is very close to our hearts," the family stated in a letter made public on Capitol Hill. "We have not only lost our future with our daughter and sister, but with our grandson and nephew as well."

As Christmas time approaches
We miss you more and more
Memories of past Yule times
We always will adore
We still hang the decorations
Put the lights upon the tree
We hang the cards upon the wall
This one's for you, you see
Even though you are not here
You're always in our hearts
So we remember you this Christmas
While we're temporarily apart.
LOVE ALWAYS, Cheryl

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family on this special day. All my love to you. Vicki ~ from Oklahoma
My Dear Family
It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...
***********
I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...
***********
I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrops
I so wish I could erase...
***********
I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...
***********
I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...
***********
You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...
**********
I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...

"We are given many precious gifts as we go through life.
Some we are allowed to enjoy for a long time, others only briefly.
But each gift has the power to change and enrich us, to make us better human beings."

She’s in a better place right now
Than she’s ever been before;
All pain is gone; she’s now at rest;
Nothing troubles her anymore.
It’s we who feel the burden of
Our sadness and our grief;.
We have to cry, to mourn our loss,
Before we get relief.
We know we’ll reconnect with her
At the end of each life’s road;
We’ll see her cherished face again
When we release our earthly load.
God bless you, Laci and child, rest in the arms of the Lord, free from this world, its woes, its violence. And God bless and comfort all who miss you today.
~~laci and connor~~~
bless you both'glad he got wot he deserved' lots of love to you and connor.x.x.x
A poem read for Laci's Mom Sharon
Mom, Share our Smile with the World
I am embraced in love and light, and my baby is embraced by me.
God's loving arms, they hold us now for all eternity.
Remember the laughter we shared,
Please keep laughing. I still laugh with you.
No more sleepless nights, Mom, please rest for me.
In the morning I'll be there, Rising with the sun.
I am in your soul. I am your sunlight.
I am the rays that break through.
Mom, please understand, I do this now for you.
My smile, he could not take that from me.
My smile, that graces the screen It's your smile, Mom.
It's your smile now they see.
For all I have become, it's because of you.
You've allowed the world to see, your hope, your tears,
And now my spirit's soaring free.
It's in our smile, Mom, it's yours, it's mine.
Please, keep smiling for me.
