Drew Peterson engaged to 23 yr old

Holy Cow! I just heard this news over on the Caylee Anthony thread. I had to come over here to see it for myself. What a dumb broad THIS chick is. imo No wonder he wanted a "divorce". GMAB :mad:

What an absolute IDIOT that woman is...IF this isn't all just a publicity stunt that is. You know how Drew loves the spotlight and the media hasn't been outside his house in awhile. :thumbdown:

I want to scream. Where are her parents????
Thanks for the link momofamarine.

[iluvmua]

This young lady is just Stupid with a capital S.
Seriously, what in the world was she thinking?????:ohmy:

If they get married, I would not ber surprised if she turns up dead/ missing as well.

[rbrnmw]

Stuck on Stupid is the only description I can think of for this Woman. Has she not seen what happened to Kathleen and Stacy?

[mickeymb35]

Those poor kids.

[penguin01]

Must be the potential for fame - or just plain dumb. I guess Drew isn't about to hook up with a smart woman - or one old enought to know better.

[Crispy]

Just heard this on MSNBC and I did this...:ohmy:

Surely this young girl sees how his two previous marriages ended.

[lonetraveler]

Unfreakinbelievable! What woman with any amount of common sense would want to shack up and play house with this POS?

The sad thing is it likely won't be long before we hear that this young lady has met the same fate as his 2 previous wives...

If this young village idiot has any parents at all, they should immediately have her declared mentally incompetent to make decisions on her own behalf. Where are they in all this??????

Trust me when I say Im on "your side" here. I think its unreal that Drew is remarrying, or wants to, after his divorce from Stacy is finalized. Drew is lucky he's still a free man right now cause we all think he killed Kathleen AND Stacy.

However this new, stupid young woman is 23 and a legal adult. Many IMO misguided people are drawn towards convicts and convicted murderers. Doesnt mean she's legally incompetent though. As far as her parents go, maybe they have disowned her. Maybe they are dead. Maybe they are praying their daughter will regain her wits and not go through with it.

I heard a few minutes ago on a news channel.

Engaged? And this young woman (news said) is same age as Stacey? What is with this guy?
And the young woman? I sure would like to know what he's got that draws these 'girls' to him.

Does not really surprised me. Been dating ever since Stacey disappeared, the way I understand.

Last I heard he may be charged with the murder of Kathleen. Shaking head.

Another young-un infatuated w/ this guy? What does he have to offer? How long does it take before a body is declared dead? . He would be an old man by then. If she intends to marry him. Maybe while he is in prison? IMO.

Geeeeeese. Some things just don't make sense. Notoriety I guess.

Suspect Peterson says he's engaged to marry
Publicist confirms commitment to 23-year-old woman despite missing wife
msnbc.com news services

Drew Peterson, the retired Illinois police sergeant who gained national attention after he was suspected in his third wife's disappearance, is engaged to be married again, his publicist said Wednesday.

Peterson's publicist Glenn Selig confirmed the engagement to a 23-year-old woman to NBC's Chicago affiliate, WMAQ, after it was first reported by CBS News. The woman's name was not revealed for privacy reasons.

Drew P. is seeking a divorce from Stacy on the grounds of abandonment for over a year (which is grounds in IL). I believe that it takes 7 years for a missing person to be declared legally dead.

If true that this creep is engaged to the young woman, she must have some problems. Of course she knows about him. Everyone around here knows about him. IMO

Could this young woman be Kim Matsuka who testified in DP's grand jury. Kim is now 23 and lives about 15 minutes from Drew (the time distance has been stated in some news articles).

I wouldn't want to be identified, either!!! Well, I wouldn't have accepted, heck, wouldn't even had been in a position to BE proposed to by that one. She'd better watch out, her "identification" might come in the form of a missing or dead person.

[Amy]

What an absolute IDIOT that woman is...IF this isn't all just a publicity stunt that is. You know how Drew loves the spotlight and the media hasn't been outside his house in awhile. :thumbdown:

This will drag on a bit--I was wondering if he is divorced yet, GVS said on her show--he still needs to get divorced before they marry. Guess he's hoping hearing dates on the divorce, contesting if it's denied, etc etc etc will garner him more news time.

[Amy]

When I saw her age, then his, I almost threw up.

what would possibly possess someone to marry someone old enough to be their FATHER?

God, I think I need to throw up.

imo.

I saw his pic and about threw up. I know you aren't supposed to judge a book by its cover, but his cover is ugly, as is his personality as he showed it on the talk shows and in his front yard time after time.

I noticed in that same paragraph, Armstrong says Peterson and his children love the young WOMEN. Notice that is plural, wonder if that is a freudian slip?

I wonder if she is one of those people who feel sorry for the underdog, has somehow become convinced that he is innocent of everything, the poor guy. And so to PROVE how harmless he is, she'll marry him.

This girl is young enough to believe that she can change him. I can't imagine marrying some old goat like this creep. You not only have to sit across the breakfast table from him every morning but you have to sleep with him every night barfbarf

You not only have to sit across the breakfast table from him every morning but you have to sleep with him every night barfbarfI think your first sentence hits the nail on the head. Nothing will change Drew but some hard prison time. I think he thinks he has done two good things for the world. I don't think this child/young woman is thinking clearly. There should be a law for adult predators who prey on adults. Sorry guys this engagement has sicken me so. This woman needs an intervention!

[kellabeck]

This is so appalling. Not even that DrewP would propose -- he needs a female to care for the young'uns -- or that it could be after 4 months of dating--- Nothing this uncharged killer does would shock me.

But any woman would be so stupid to trust him? Or --ew!-- be attracted to him??!!!

I guess no woman Drew's age would sign on for that.

Women DrewP's age are too savvy to hook themselves up to at the least a four-time loser and at worst, a killer of two wives who is obviously narcissistic and sociopathic. Of course he would want a young, impressionable woman he could win with flattery and gifts.

WGN news said last night that the engagement ring was $15,000.

But, the young lady had been quoted as saying that she was only wearing a a friendship ring.

[Kip]

Doesn't he just have to "divorce" Stacy or have the courts declare her dead? I think that man is despicable. That Stacy hasn't been located is heartbreaking.

Heartbreaking to us, but apparently not to Drew.

Grammybear, I think your assessment of Drew is probably spot on.

My advice to her is, hock or sell that ring and get out of town. DP has a history of stalking and harassing women who turn him down...not to mention the unmentionable consequence. :scared:

[spageddy]

I can think of a few reasons that this woman would consider marriage to Drew.
Attention. She's getting it-
Danger, thrills & excitement
$$$- a book or movie deal.

She's a woman in need of help. I hope she gets it.
IMHO Drew is very "icky". Not so good looking, charming or funny- except maybe to himself. Where's the barf icon?

Sheeesh. The young woman has two small children. She is very vulnerable. She and her boyfriend work in a Bolingbrook restaurant. She prob has nothing and what Drew has might be tempting (I mean Drew's material assets). IMO

I would like to know how any literate informed woman would want anything to do with this beast!

Just my opinion.

[Amy S.]

Last night on WGN News Chicago, it said that Drew P. was out on the town. He was hitting the bars and restaurants with a "coed" and they were filmed making out in several locations. The news crew approached them in the parking lot and asking if she was the fiance'. Both she and Drew got a big kick out of that and said "No."

I just can't even type out how disgusted I am that these women would even speak to Drew Peterson. If I ever see him out (I live in the western suburbs too), I think I would "accidentally" spill my entire drink on his head as I passed by.

It also disgusts me how much attention he gets for whoever he is dating....almost like he's some sort of celebrity. Sick.

[BobbisAngel]

Drew P. doesn't want a woman "his age." I don't understand what a young woman, or any woman, would see in him, even if he wasn't a suspected murderer. He looks like a drunk to me. IMO


I was just thinking the same thing about him looking like a drunk. I just found this info in an article about him and his new woman. I got the link from #40. It has a lot of info on Drew and his engagement.


Drew Peterson confirmed he proposed to a much younger woman today, even as his wife is missing and he’s under scrutiny in the death of his third wife.
The engagement continues his pattern of courting women less than half his age and proposing while still married.
Peterson confirmed that the woman has accepted, despite the fact he’s a suspect in the death of his third wife Kathleen Savio and implicated in the disappearance of his fourth wife Stacy—to whom he is still married.


This article says he proposed. I'll bet he thinks he is quite the catch.
In that same newspaper there is an article by the Prosecutor which is really interesting. The paper lists different titles of articles and that is how I found the one by the Pros. He is positive that Drew is going to be charged for either one or both of the murders. The Grand Jury will begin again any day now. Let's hope it all comes down before he can marry this girl who is playing with half a deck. Drew P is such a PIG.

Wouldn't this girl and Stacy be around the same age as Drew Peterson's oldest son who is in LE?

[lonetraveler]

Just checking in. Keep hoping to see an arrest warrant for Drew. What is taking so long? Does anyone know? I've served on Grand Jury for a year and this is unbelievable.

As much as I dislike the guy, they don't really have any evidence, at least that we know about. If you served on a Grand Jury, you know that evidence is required. IMO
I guess until he either confessses or gets caught in the act he can continue to kill/make disappear young women. Who knows he may wipe out more than that Green River prostitute killer.:mad:

[bosnmate]

They just showed him being interviewed in FoxNews....he's loving the attention. :rolleyes:

And according to the story on the link in thirty days if Stacy has not responded he is divorced, so if she were still alive you would think that she would respond to get her half of the assets

Could someone please explain what is happening with the grand jury, somehow I must have missed something. Are they still conveining, did they take a break, if so why, and when will they start again? Why would they stop midstream...I am so confused by that. Are the same people that were on the grand jury before still going to be on there when they start back up?

Thanks for the info

[Mayasmimi]

I am not sure what has happened with the grand jury. I have probably missed articles about the gj also. Another thought came to mind to me last night when I was doing some reading. What if DP is or has put the word out that he is engaged just to be brought to being the center of attention by the media. He will not name the girl, but the one father thinks it is his daughter, then there was a report about this gal being out with him and their denying they are engaged and then laugh about it.
I don't know why my mind even went this direction but with him always wanting to be the center of attention it just makes me wonder.

jmoo

For sure. Always the center of attention. I believe Drew Peterson is guilty, and will most likely never be convicted. Sad. So sorry for her kids and Cassandra, and all who loved her.

Someone will rot.

[Jpanda]

It sure is starting to look like he will not pay for what has happened to these two women. I think it is way past time he is locked up. More then making him pay for what he has done, these two women need justice for what was done to them. I do not believe for one moment that Stacy just walked away.
The games this man plays is really scary and it needs to come to a stop.

jmoo

I agree.....and it really worries me about that old saying "A grand jury will indict a ham sandwich." That just makes me think they REALLY have no evidence! I used to be so confident about an arrest, but I'm not so sure anymore.

In the meantime, I have absolutely no sympathy or worry for his new live-in girlfriend. If she has any sort of common sense, she would know not to get involved with a murder suspect....and she certainly wouldn't move into his (in my opinion, murdered) wife's old room. SICK!!!

jmo

[lonetraveler]

I do hope that the parents of this mentally challenged dingbat who is engaged to Drew Peterson take their grandchildren away from her because they are definitely endangered in that home. You never know, a bullet may come through the floor and hit one of them, accidentally of course, like it did with Stacey. This girl is a real loser.

Geez... That "engagement" didn't last long, did it? Interesting that there were five squad cars there to help her get her stuff out of the house.. Why so many? Was Drew threatening the fiance and her dad????

they must'a heard Dr Phil was there, LOL

I just say her father on Dr. Phil. He was very (understandibly upset). She sent him a text msg. saying that she is in love with him. How fast these people fall in love, wonder what this Drew has. The father sort of indicated that he is not going to let anything happen to her.

Where is that puke icon? Ah barf

[iluvmua]

I'm SO glad she's outta there! :thumbsup:

But he'll eventually find some other young pretty girl :(

[RayStar]

HOORAY to her dad. I gather this young woman did not like being a prisoner. Her dad says she wanted out because Drew was too controlling. I have forgotten where I saw the clip.

PETERSON DOES NIGHTLINE - FIANCEE MOVES OUT

[iluvmua]

What I don't understand about Stacy is why did she not get herself and her kids the heck out of dodge when Drew told her that he had killed Kathleen?

It makes me wonder what made her want to stay with him after he told her that.

[Aradia5]

I cannot believe he still hasn't been arrested. It is beyond me. :confused:

[not.another]

They are now showing a preview of the show on GMA. He has enormous, purple bags under his eyes that I've ever seen. He is a true egomaniac.

I hope his new wife doesn't pi$$ him off.



He is an enormous purple bag......Sorry, couldn't help it.

[playnice]

I hope this girl and her dad dont come up missing too.

[Aradia5]

That seems to be the MO though. Missing people.

Drew Peterson appeals reopening of 3rd wife's estate
Opening Kathleen Savio's estate would make it possible to file wrongful-death suit against ex-Bolingbrook cop

newbie on this board. What do those absolutly beautiful young girls see in a cranky miserable old fart like him? I just dont get it.

I would go right over to the pet store and buy myself a few really good pitbulls

newbie on this board. What do those absolutly beautiful young girls see in a cranky miserable old fart like him? I just dont get it.

Because he's (in)famous?

Like the women who got involved with OJ, I just couldn't imagine any respectable man wanting to be with her now.

[Explorer]

There is no doubt in my mind that he would eventually killed the newest girl if she stayed there. Another thing that I find interesting is that he kills them while they are taking a bath. They are stuck there . No way of calling for help. He is one of the biggest cowards on the face of this earth.

[Explorer]

There is a website that posted a picture of the cowardly lion from the wizard of oz with this guys picture superimposed. How fitting!

Drew Peterson's latest "fiancee" or I guess former fiancee and her father were just being interviewed by Lisa Bloom. I caught the tail end of it which was basically about them going to Peterson's home to retrieve her belongings. Other than the obvious, I'm curious as to why this short lived romance came to an end. Anyone?

[Explorer]

She must have called her father and asked for help. If he went there with the law it had to have been by her request. I dont think they could make her leave if she didnt want to go.

"Engagement" To Drew Peterson Was "Stunt"

When asked how she had come to get engaged to Peterson, Christina responded, "It was never an engagement."
"What was it, then?"
"It was more like a stunt."
"A stunt?"
"Yes."
"On whose part?"
"On Drew's, so he could be in the media," Christina said. "He had told me that his lawyer had wanted him to be in the media and wanted to propose to someone at a restaurant."


Ughhhhhhh.....

[Explorer]

Another thing is that I think he was challanging her father because her father really was against her living there. Kind of like showing the father that he was in control of the girl like it or not.

Her father wasn't going to let it be...he tried everything until the daughter said she loved her father too much and decided to leave Drew....Hat's off to this father....

That's exactly what he was doing.....I guess he'll have to find another sweetheart....I can not understand how ANYONE would want to be near him at all....I don't get it....

[Lavenia]

Ohhhh K... :huh:

Tell me this, Christina, If the engagement was "a stunt"...
What do you call moving into his house and putting YOUR kids
and HIS.... through all that BS?

Does anyone care what DrewP. has put these children through already?

I came here to see if anything was said about this aspect yet. I don't buy what she's selling. If it was a "stunt", why did she have her things at DP's house, and need the police to retrieve 'em? I think she's trying to save face.

[awareness]

I found it VERY TELLING that the now former fiance was saying in an interview she didn't feel Stacy would have run off and leave her kids. This was after she saw numerous photos of Stacy and the kids still displayed in DP's house, and she could clearly tell Stacy loved her kids from looking at the photos.

DP is one of the worst of the worst.

JMO/IMO

[Explorer]

That is a pretty dangerous stunt. I just dont understand how she could subject her children to that. She is an adult and can do what she pleases but to put her kids there???:confused:

[eagleeer]

This gal should be thanking her lucky stars that nothing happened to her or her children. I still wonder what this man might do to her or her family. Everything I have read about Drew tells me he does not take lightly a woman walking out on him. If this was a stunt then she really needs to be careful. Of course all of us have been saying for over a year that Stacy would not have left on her own without her children. I really wish some of these young women would wake up to what is going on around them.

You know I have to wonder if Drew didn't put this stunt in action to bring attention from the media back to him and not to his victims.

jmoo

I'm wondering if Stacy knew that Drew killed Kathleen and left the children knowing that Drew would not kill his own flesh and blood. It appears that he is a good father to them. I have the feeling that Stacy is hiding out until Drew is arrested and will then reappear. Hopefully this is the case. Maybe Stacy is a tad bit smarter than Drew.

Divorcing Stacy at this point would be a big mistake for Drew. Since she would not be married to him she would then be able to testify against him as to what she knows. Didn't Drew take Stacy to the Savio residence at one point? I know that this is a theory but I think it is coupled with a reasonable hypothesis.

[Anakerie]

Just heard that Joel Brodsky is going to be on Banfield and Ford on TruTV this morning... 2 hours worth of him?

They said he's going to be talking about Drew's case as well as the trial that they are broadcasting....

Suspect Peterson says he's engaged to marry
Publicist confirms commitment to 23-year-old woman despite missing wife
msnbc.com news services

Drew Peterson, the retired Illinois police sergeant who gained national attention after he was suspected in his third wife's disappearance, is engaged to be married again, his publicist said Wednesday.

Peterson's publicist Glenn Selig confirmed the engagement to a 23-year-old woman to NBC's Chicago affiliate, WMAQ, after it was first reported by CBS News. The woman's name was not revealed for privacy reasons.

I expected this. I knew he would be moving on to another younger model. I am only surprised that it took him this long. I am still totally sickened, however. What a shameless sack of sh......

Trust me he'll slip up somewhere down the road......A big part of the thrill for this particular Sociopath is the publicity and light on himself. Talking too much is the perfect recipe fot this guy to eventually go down........The media should pretend he doesn't exist for a good long while.....

Yep I totally agree. He will slip up big. This guy thinks everyone is so interested in him because he is sooo clever. What a jerk! He gives me the creeps

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29178993/ I was hoping that after the interview that (I thought) made her get a clue and move out she would watch it over and over and stay gone. What an idiot she is! Hope he gets put away before he kills her too.

[iluvmua]

All I can say is she MUST have a screw loose somewhere.
Something is VERY wrong with this girl.

Hi, Drew would have to file for divorce before he can get remarried.

After the interview one of the TH said when she gets fitted for her wedding dress she should also get fitted for her casket. I couldn't agree more with that statement. No link so jmho

[starling]

This woman is hooked on drama which IMO can become a sick addiction. Probably everything separate from Drew seemed boring so she went back.
Be watchful of how a love interest treats others for some day they WILL treat you that way.

When drew said she is a simple girl he meant she is stupid. When drew said that the devil won this round in reference to her father calling drew the devil, He got what he wanted to accomplish and that is he won over her father. I totally dont understand. How can this girl do this to her kids and her family? drew peterson will kill her,there is no doubt in my mind.

[Explorer]

He will kill her as we watch this drama unfold. He will kill her before our very eyes. That is what this sick person wants. He wants to show the world how clever he is and we will all stand in awe of him.:cursing:

[Explorer]

I will be glad the day they put him in jail and he getts knocked off that high horse that he's riding.

I am very glad this young lady did get out of this relationship. SNIP

I was, too. And then this morning on the TODAY show I see her holding hands with the killer and giggling as she was interviewed LAST WEEK!!!

Why on earth would she go back to him??

She needs to wake up and smell the formaldehyde.

[*Spike*]

IMO there's something wrong with that girl that went back with drew.
he's a very sick man. IMO/JMO

I applaud your candor and sneak a little smirk at KathyRae's post if there is poetic justice. Never wanting to think of something bad for this mixed up young woman. Shame on her for putting her children in this situation.

What a dolt.

[penguin01]

This does not surprise me in the least. TM has not been seen in a long time and I wondered if the state attorney had him somewhere where nothing bad could happen to him.
Clear back when he first realized that it may of been Stacy in that blue barrell there was a lot of speculation. I think when DP went to see TM at the hospital it is probably likely that DP made a threat or two and that is why he was put in protective custody or in a safe house so to speak to make sure he stays alive to give testimony.

Hopefully we will hear something soon.

jmoo Well I'm glad if they are watching out for this guy - but a creep like Drew only kills women - not strong enough to fight back. Even then he probably has to drug them first.
Refresh my recollection please. Didn't LE already check out the blue barrel?
