Photo of Drew Peterson Arrest, Will County
Sheriff’s Department, May 11, 2009
The Herald-News is reporting that police plan to dig for the body of Stacy Peterson today east of Peoria, Illinois (southwest of Chicago). Drew Peterson’s trial for Kathleen Savio’s death is scheduled to start next month.
Remember that crazy letter that Drew got stating someone had seen Stacy in Peoria?

TMZ is reporting that the video interview I linked to yesterday of Shannon Price talking about pulling the plug on Gary was recorded the day after Gary died. Isn’t that a shocker??
And today they have photos of Price with an agent that worked with Price and Coleman. TMZ reports these photos were taken about the same time as the video– the day after Gary’s death. Check it out. She is all smiles!! And if you look, the one on the right is absolutely genuine –its called a Duchenne smile. See the crows feet? Notice how big her grin is (you see more white teeth)? She couldn’t be more happy, if you asked me.
It’s flat out haunting.
And there is more video of Shannon talking about how she is struggling to pay for funeral costs. She’s really trying to act down here because she needs money and she complains Gary was never able to have life insurance because of his health problems. Poor Shannon–she must have looked into it.
This woman is scary. She goes on to say that she hopes Gary’s fans are compassionate enough to donate to cover for his funeral and she hopes you’ll pay her way, too, now that Gary is gone. He wasn’t bringing any money home lately, anyway, did you hear? All of the fun money was gone, so did that make Gary useless to her?
This story is hard to watch.
Shannon Price, Gary Coleman’s ex-wife who still resided with him, speaks out to TMZ (thanks, Celebitchy for the lead) and talks about her decision to pull the plug on Gary Coleman, who allegedly fell and then died last Thursday. I warn you she is beyond chilling!
Read moreWhen I watch Price, I am instantly reminded of Stacey Castor who was featured on 20/20 last week and who is known as the “black widow”. It’s something about their demeanor. They share a similar coldness.
Price gives off serious indications of someone who doesn’t know or even understand what empathy is. There isn’t a tear in her eye when she talks about pulling the plug on Coleman. Her eyes aren’t puffy and she is even animated in her chat with TMZ, which does not support a person who is grieving. She talks about Gary as if he were a piece of meat, not a human life about to be extinguished. I thought Michael Schiavo was cold, but she makes him look hot, warm and fuzzy!
Price says, “I’ve had a lot of people say, ‘yeah, she pushed him’, this and that, you know people are so cruel, they don’t even know! I was upstairs, he was downstairs [expression of disgust]. How am I going to push him?”
This is ludicrous. We do not know where she was when this happened. All we have is her word, which I wouldn’t put one cent on, frankly. She is colder than a nail in a freezer. Her emotions do not match her situation one iota!
Price says, “Why would I hurt my husband? Are you kidding?”
Is this supposed to convince us? It does nothing for me, whatsoever.
Listen to Price try to convince us that Gary was going to die or be useless no matter what was done. The way she talks about him is almost freakish.
Price says:
You know, the doctors told us, even if they did surgery on him, he would have died. He would have bled to death during the surgery. And they said even if they did take a chunk out of his brain, he would not be the same. He would be basically be like… Muhammad Ali. He wouldn’t be, you know…and….and…I mean he would have died sooner or later anyway from that… because its so..because the brain, it so traumatic.
I don’t want people to be so hard on me thinking that, you know, I had to pull the plug too early. He wouldn’t have made it anyway, his heart would have just given out……..and I don’t want people to think that I’m a BITCH, and that I didn’t care about him, but you know, be in my situation. I mean look what happened with Terri Schiavo. I always think of her case when it comes to this. I mean, I mean Gary was gone, his eyes were dilated, he wasn’t, you know, he wasn’t…he was just gone (shoulder shrug)…and he’s done a lot for me. He bought me a car…
This woman is cold, cunning, and creepy. She is very off and needs to be looked at with a magnifying glass!
If there was ever a soft place to land after the shenanigans Sarah pulled, she found it in Oprah. Throughout the entire interview, I kept getting flashes of Rielle Hunter when she sat in the presence of big O. It’s like both women created alternative ways of dealing with reality. Hunter painted everything sunny when in reality it was dark and gray, where Sarah seems to disassociate herself from her scheming alter-ego, as if it were someone else and not her. It was bizarre.
Read more“Thank you for showing me [the video] because, actually, I felt really sorry for her,” said Sarah referring to herself as she watched her behavior playback on a small screen in front of Oprah.
Another time she said, “I believe from this I freed Sarah from the treadmill of her life, really.” Isn’t that a twist?
The disassociations kept coming and coming. It was surreal.
When I watched Sarah, I didn’t see a person who was sorry for her actions. I saw a woman who was trying to convince us all that, well, yeah, she messed up, but it was due to drinking, too much traveling, abuse, self-loathing, and whatnot. The excuses kept coming…
“I think I was so out of control with desperation to the point where I’d reached no return of helping my friend with the $40,000. Sort of out of my mind,” said Sarah to Oprah.
Sort of out of her mind? She is clearly hedging, saying wisps of what she knows she should, but she can’t quite claim it. I wondered, at times, too, if she was under the influence of something, because she didn’t even speak coherently. Could she have a drug problem of sorts?
“All I can know is that it happened and now I have got to go forward. Find a way forward as Sarah,” said the Duchess.
If that doesn’t hone us into what is important to Sarah, I don’t know what will: At the end of the day, it isn’t regret or remorse for her actions or owning up to what drove her.
When Oprah asked her if she was drunk, she says no, but when Oprah asked her what she drank, she couldn’t recall if it was wine or OJ. Sarah knows what was influencing her, she just doesn’t want to say, like an addict protecting their vice. I was also tired hearing about these so-called “friends”. They were a convenient excuse, too. Her sincerity in this interview fell like a brick from the 10th floor.
Its one thing to make a mistake. We can all forgive people for poor decisions in times of desperation, but when people continually walk down that path of desperation and refuse to face the music or ask for help, and dig themselves deeper with loads of B.S., we owe it to them to say STOP.
Look and listen to what you said, Sarah. Listen, read and watch your denial. Hear your words of nonsense, because if you don’t, it will only compound your problems. From where I see you sitting right now, you are on the edge of a cliff. You can either turn around now and get help, or risk falling to desperately new lows that will make you remember this pillow Oprah gave as a gift that you failed to take.

There is an interesting video of Larry James responding to claims by his son, Jesse, that he was abused over at RadarOnline.
Larry is relaxed and his words flow, which is supportive of honesty. When we watch his facial expressions and emotions, they, too, are supportive of his words. When we further compare his interview and behavior to James’ interview and behavior, I think it becomes clear who appears most trustworthy. It isn’t Jesse.
In the process of looking for a linkable video of Larry, I found an article by TMZ that I thought was fascinating. Jesse James’ sister, Julie, supports Jesse in that she believed he was abused.
What is fascinating, however, if TMZ’s post is accurate and truthful, it puts Jesse in a bad light. In his Nightline interview, Jesse talked of snapping his wrist when going over the fence for the ball that night his dad yelled at him. Then later, Jesse brings up that his dad broke his arm, as if to suggest it was a different incident. Well, according to TMZ and Julie, it was one in the same. Oops! Is he busted?
I wondered if these two were the same incident and according to two of Jesse’s family members, it was! It’s not looking good for Jesse. Did his sister just dig his hole bigger for him?
