Peterson's lawyer, Joel Brodsky on the "engagement"

February 3, 2009

Drew Peterson's alleged fiance, Christina Raines, who had moved in with him, has woken up and is fighting back. Where else but the media? She was on The Early Show yesterday alleging that the "engagement" was a media stunt. Well, the public knew. He alleged he was being stalked, then he said another message was left on Brodsky's tape about a Stacy sighting, a TV interview in his house for Stacy's birthday - which he did not celebrate and then his appearance on Nightline. It's too bad she had to be embarrassed on Nightline to see it and she moved out. I see I haven't posted his Nightline appearance and other things. Will try to find them.

Here's the statement from scumbag peterson's lawyer, Joel Brodsky, who happens to be representing Jesse Jackson, Jr. (Unless he's changed lawyers.) And the statement is from the same agency that is representing Blagojevich, who is out on his blago media blitz part 2.

PRNEWSCHANNEL:

BRODSKY: t's very unfortunate that Ernie Raines has dragged his daughter Christina Raines before the cameras and turned her into a Jerry Springer-esque media figure.

And peterson? He's Jerry Springer and Jerry's audience all in one.

Mr. Peterson's engagement to Christina was not a publicity stunt. However, it appears that their recent breakup is a publicity grab orchestrated by Christina’s father, Ernie Raines. "It is Ernie Raines who put his daughter on national television. It is Ernie Raines who brought the cameras along when he went to help Christina move out. It is Ernie Raines who cried on 'Dr. Phil' about his daughter. It is Ernie Raines who threatened to drive his car through Mr. Peterson's house. If there's any publicity stunt going on, it's being organized by Ernie Raines.

More power to Mr Raines - but what took him so long? And has he looked inward to see why his daughter is hanging out and moved in with a man his age? And who is looking out for those children with all these media appearances?

On the other hand, Mr. Peterson never put Christina on TV and always tried to protect her and her children against media intrusion. He never put her on television, never made her talk to the media, and did not even allow her picture to be taken for the papers.

Unlike her father, Mr. Peterson tried to keep Christina out of the news.

We vehemently deny that the engagement was a publicity stunt orchestrated by me. The undisputed facts are that Christina asked Drew to marry her multiple times; that Drew asked Christina to marry him once; Christina accepted and a ring was given; she moved into Drew’s house with her children; and they bought furniture together. This was an engagement.

They bought a bunk bed for the kids. And on his radio appearance peterson laughed how he hasn't given her a ring "not as of yet" and "we'll see how it goes" and "we'll cross this bridge when the time comes". And when he was asked if he asked "Chrissy" to get married - he laughed and said that "she asked him and then he asked her". And that they "basically agreed that down the road we will get together and get married." And when will that be? "We'll have to see how life holds out. No definite plans or any dates set or anything." Listen to his tone - he laughs and ridicules her like he did on Nightline. He is a scumbag of the lowest order and needs to be locked up with the sociopaths he used to arrest. I bet the Bolingbrook PD is ready to take him out to the firing range...

peterson: we didn't celebrate Stacy's birthday

January 25, 2009

Peterson needed his fix. barry, Burris and blagojevich have overshadowed him so out he crawled out from his cave to demand his 15 seconds. First the engagement, then the stalking, then the moving in and now - with his fiance living in his house - he lets ABC's Jim Avila into his house to talk about Stacy. What's next? Nightline.

PETERSON: I think of the happier times all the time, some good memories. But it's kind of painful, so I don't really spend a lot of time walking down memory lane.

And then he mentions affairs she had? How could she possibly do that with him following her everywhere?

PETERSON: She left for somebody else, and there's been several affairs discovered. So yeah, I'm pretty mad.

And then there's another mysterious anonymous caller reporting a sighting on his lawyer's answering machine. It' so predictable. This time she was in Peoria.

CALLER: I'd just like you to know I did see Stacy again on January second.

What kind of wording is that? Look at each word. Doesn't make sense.

How did they celebrate Stacy's 24th birthday with fiance #5 in the house and while Stacy's family and friends held a vigil?

PETERSON: We didn't celebrate. We kind of like didn't want to remind the children that she was gone.

He told them initially that mommy is on vacation and it appears he has never updated or explained it any further. He said they don't need counseling.

PETERSON: It's a little harder on the little girl. You know once in a while she'll ask, you know, 'I want my mommy or where's mommy.' And that's hard."

And then there's the predictable narcissistic delusional madness.

PETERSON: I'm a celebrity everywhere in the world. I find it totally strange. I'll be out somewhere, and I'll get phone numbers put in my hand.

This man has to be stopped. Has he called any?

PETERSON: I'm keeping my options open.

And where was the fiance when he said that?

There is no engagement. Poor girl was a media pawn and her children are the ones who are suffering.

drew peterson to be on Nightline 1/29

January 28, 2009

Drew Peterson is going to be on Nightline tomorrow to talk about his new "fiance" and his "engagement". Which if he didn't have he wouldn't be going on Nightline if he didn't have. Poor girl is a media pawn and she has no one around her to help her. How sad. Worse her children have been exposed to him - living in his house. How messed up is that whole household?

He was interviewed at home by Martin Bashir. I sure hope she isn't on it with him.
