Peterson has job interview at Nevada brothel

CHICAGO - Drew Peterson is heading to Reno Friday to spend a weekend at the famous Moonlight Bunny Ranch, the basis for the HBO reality series 'Cathouse,' where he will meet owner Dennis Hof to talk about job possibilities.
Hof said today that he will offer the former Bolingbrook police sergeant a job as head of security of the Nevada brothel, which employs 500 working girls.
"He seems like a very charismatic guy," Hof said. But if Peterson were to take the job, he would not be featured on the reality show, Hof said.

CHICAGO - Drew Peterson, a former Illinois police sergeant suspected in the disappearance of his fourth wife, on Thursday was indicted on a murder charge in the death of his third wife.
Peterson, 55, was taken into custody Thursday evening by state police who stopped his car. A warrant accuses him of murdering Kathleen Savio.
Savio's body was found in a bathtub on March 1, 2004. Her death was initially ruled an accidental drowning.

I don't think there's a chance of that. To be honest, I kinda suspect that this happened when it did for two reasons: 1) The grand jury expires at the end of the month and 2) He's been all over the news today and yesterday saying he is considering relocating to Nevada for work at the bunny ranch. I read earlier somewhere that he was going out there tomorrow to check it out....
God, it sounds like a bad Lifetime movie, but it's all true.
I'm sooo happy that poor Kathleen and the Savio family might finally get justice after so long.

Gonna have to do some more reading to see if he's going to get out on bail.. I hope that Illinois is a "no-bail" state for the charge of murder!
I did stumble on one story that puts the reality show into the realm of imagination from the head of that PR guy... The Associated Press is saying:
HBO: Drew Peterson not welcome on brothel show (http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5g_fxFKj7KCLW8-v9mupMi94clg9QD981KJ600)
" HBO says there's no chance Drew Peterson will appear on a reality television show set in a Nevada brothel.In fact, HBO spokeswoman Tobe (TOH'-bee) Becker says the network would cancel "Cathouse" before allowing the former suburban Chicago police officer to appear."
Like I said on my blog a few minutes ago, I think I'll pour a glass of wine and celebrate tonight! LOL

I agree and pray this sticks since it has been so long and they messed up her death investigation in the first place to bad it took another wife to vanish to look into his 3rd wife's murder I have never had a doubt he had something to do with both of his wife's death and the other one vanishing

Will County state's attorney's office spokesman Chuck Pelkie confirmed Peterson was arrested about 5:40 p.m. during a traffic stop at Lily Cache Lane and Weber Road in Bolingbrook in connection with an indictment in the murder of Savio.
When reached early Thursday evening, Peterson's attorney, Joel Brodsky, said he was unaware of the arrest.
"You know more than I do. I'm on a plane it's taking off in 5 minutes to go to NYC. I guess they'll have a bond hearing Monday," he said.

Arrested in connection with the death of Kathleen Savio. Police are at his house right now (5-7-9, 7:09 pm eastern), per Fox news.
I just read that... I can hardly believe it. Finally! I'm glad they waited if it was to make sure it sticks. He's one of the few people I'll say is guilty before the trial is over or even begins. I feel bad for his kids, but in the long run, they are better off with him in prison.

If he was a real man he would confess and lead police to Stacy's body and end this drama.

More than 10 emails all in a row flooding my inbox. I hope he never see's the light of day again. We will all have to hold our breaths that his weirdo lawyer doesn't try to bail him out and rest assured, he will try.
I hope it's a no bond. To me this says the Grand Jury has spoken and the Indictment has been handed down. Let's hope it includes no bail.
He's a flight risk, and his little babysitter girlfriend, now needs to go home to daddy. What, a joke. I think DP's main issue was finding a "baby sitter" for his kids. He was saddled with them.
We won't have to worry about that any more will we, DP producing more children and then killing their mothers.
I hope there is NO bond too!!!!!! I still wish LE would check his yard for an old septic tank and dig it up!

Bail is TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS. I doubt even DP could come up with that amount. The children were removed from the home and are in the care of CPS, per live report. DP asked that his son take custody of them. I would have to think that LE will interview them at this point, as to what they know. What they Heard and what they possibly saw.
Poor children, especially Kathleens. They remind me of Julie Jensens children, totally brainwashed by the murderer himself and his "wife". The facts are the facts and the fact is these children have been raised by a madman, a wife beater and a murderer.

He has two grown children by his first wife. Stephen is the one who Drew asked that the children go to.

Perhaps that latest "freudian slip" of "i just tell the kids mommy is on vacation & never coming home" (paraphrasing) - was the last straw on the camel's back for them, if though that phrase relates to SP and not KS. Did you hear his last funny (NOT!) words? "A wish I would have ret'd my library books..." EGADS! There are so many things wrong with that man, I don't know where to start!
:thumbsup: - to officers who never lost the faith nor did they rush to arrest him too quickly
:rose: - to KS & many family & friends that miss and love her.
Also to SP & HER family and friends...
Anyone know a hearing/arraignment date yet so I can set my calendar? I sure do hope they are allowed to broadcase it LIVE!!

This is good news. I knew sooner or later that Drew Peterson would be charged for Kathleen Savio's death. Hopefully, this charge will turn up the pressure for Peterson and he eventually tells detectives what happened to Stacy. He's been able to withstand the pressure put on him from LE and the media for quite some time. At some point, however, he's gonna cave.
However, I think it'll be a while before LE gather enough evidence to charge Drew with Stacy's murder. I'm almost certain Drew murdered Stacy and disposed of her body somewhere. To the best of my knowledge,though, there's still not enough evidence to prove Drew murdered Stacy.

For real???
Yes. And from what I heard on Greta, didn't sound like much if any a hesitation from the judge on that amount. IMO, I think they will keep it that high; they don't want him out and can probably convince the Judge he will be a huge flight risk despite his children...
Is he still with that dope of a g/f that went on LB to declare her independence and then went back w/ him the next day?

20 Mil means he ain't goin' nowhere! :thumbsup:
ITA! - There is no way in heck his house is worth anywhere near that amount - unless all of his family members take out 2nd mortages on their homes for him. NOT!
2 Counts of 1st degree murder: (per James Glasgow - Will Cty)
1- in the theory of intentionally killing
2- knowing & doing an act that can cause great bodily harm
$20 Million bond - I wonder how MANY family member houses would actually be held as collateral for him to actually be out of jail.... The mind boggles... :)
ETA - oh no, I just realized DP is probably happy right now since he is back in the news and temporarily replacing Casey! :)

His lawyer just said on CNN that he's researched bond and the amount won't stand up. He's going to try and have it lowered.
heard the same thing one of his lawyers are not in the state so they do not think he will be in court tomorrow..but he did say they knew this was more than likely coming and had looked into the bond amount

And BAEZ also thought he could get the bond lowered and we all saw how well THAT worked! I'm gonna guess he will stay in jail and the amount won't be lowered significantally enough for him to afford it. Unless of course, Leonard Padilla feels a need a to help HIM. lol

How long would it take was my last thought last night as the very late night case ended on ttv (it was on prosecuting one of their own) and I just can't believe it. Brodsky, already emailing about that the amt is excessive.

I'm still VERY curious about Stacy's own mother. I want to know if DP knew her, as she is also missing. It's something that DP threw in her face often and I really wonder if he killed Stacy's mother, maybe he knew her before he knew stacy. It's something I cannot get out of my head.
Where is Stacy's mother? Is she dead too? She would have come forward, during the search for Stacy you would think. I know I would have outted myself, if I were alive and breathing.
I think LE needs to ratcheted up the search for Stacy's mother.

Relating to Tom Morphey - It is WAY too bad he didn't go w/ SP when he went away w/ the blue trunk. TM said it weighed about 150 and SP was way lighter than that. SP could have have added some weight to it, brought it to some body of water, and sunk it. If TM did play along & go with him, we might know where her body is right now and he would have been in jail 1 and 1/2 yrs. ago....
