Witness: For the Prosecution of Scott Peterson by Amber Frey

5.0

I loved reading Amber's view of why this situation happened to her. She draws connections between her and Lacy that are just chilling.

I'm not completely convinced that Scott killed Lacy, yeah he's a super douche - but it doesn't all fit to me. What about the home invasion next door (even Nancy Grace says there are no coincidences in a murder investigation), and the witness seeing a pregnant woman fighting with a group of men putting her in the back of a white van? Many people saw Lacy at the park that day, when Scott was already gone for the day. The mailman time with the loose dog, and the hidden jailhouse phone calls between the home invaders talking about Lacy.. it's all suspect. Why would/did the police dismiss and plain out ignore and hide evidence? Not what I'd call a good investigation.

There wasn't really any other proof Scott killed Lacy, besides Scott being a lying cheating douche. I would say he had motive (new life with Amber), but that doesn't mean he did it.

Amber's book lets us see this investigation in another way and through her eyes. I also like how she leaned on her faith to get her through. It's a great testimony.
