Drew Peterson’s Subconscious Thoughts?

Read moreDrew Peterson was on a morning TV show in Chicago this week, and said something very damning. When the reporter asked Drew what he told their children about Stacy since she has been gone for over a year, he said, “She’s on vacation still, and she’s not coming back.” The reporter than clarified Drew’s response and said, “Why do you say she’s not coming back?” Drew very calmly said, “I didn’t say she’s not coming back.” It was fascinating.

Drew had no idea he actually said it, if you want my opinion. I think it is a great example of how the subconscious brain works. He spoke from gut here, without thinking, and his true feelings, I believe, came out. Drew is that relaxed in the beginning of this video that he didn’t even think about self-censoring.

Drew then says, “I didn’t mean to say that…she’s ah…she’s on vacation….and (shoulder shrug) we don’t know when she’s coming back.” Here we can clearly see Drew thinking on his feet as he talks. Now, realizing he slipped up, he is self-censoring. Watch how he looks directly at the reporter when he is finished. He is checking out how she is responding to his answer. This is a common trait of people who are deceptive. They want to know if they’ve convinced you, because if they feel they haven’t, they will continue to speak until they feel they have done so.

There is another interesting moment in this video as well, when the reporter mentions what the pastor says Stacy told him and testified to before the grand jury. The reporter says according to the pastor Stacy told him that the night of Savio’s death, she woke up to find Drew gone. He continues, “In the morning, the pastor said Stacy saw Peterson standing in front of a washing machine, dressed in black and holding a bag. Peterson washed the clothes he was wearing, and the women’s clothes that were in the bag, the suit states. He then allegedly told Stacy that he hit Savio in the back of the head, making her death look like an accident.”

The entire time the reporter is reading that statement, Drew is listening intensely. It’s very notable. It appears this is the first time he heard this. The tension in his face and body at this point is incredible. It’s tipping the charts!! Do you feel it? It actually makes me tense and nervous.

Drew responds, “Non…none of that ever happened” and he immediately looks to his attorney to help him. He is notably shook up.

When Drew’s attorney speaks up, look at how Drew stares out into space. He is in shock about this, as if he is stunned that Stacy talked about this to someone, in this great of detail. Why didn’t Drew act all comical like he always does and say, “That’s nonsense!” and laugh, like usual?

I suspect what the pastor testified to is likely the truth, and it rattled Drew to the bone! Watching Drew rattled me to the bone.

My Thoughts on Lyle Herring

I wasn’t actually going to post the story and video of Lyle Herring because his behavior is obviously suspicious to anyone who looks at the facts, alone.

[ABC.com]”LAPD Det. Chris Gable called his cooperation “fragmented” and “less than helpful,” and added that Herring is “not someone I would expect as a grieving husband.”

Read moreThis is an immediate and huge red flag by itself. Another huge red flag is that Lyle didn’t report his wife missing. It was Leslie’s sister, Aasha Davis, who reported Leslie missing after Leslie missed work several days in a row. You would think if Lyle and Leslie got into a fight, and he awoke and she was gone, that if he didn’t hear from her for a day, he’d call people to see if she was okay, but he didn’t do that. It’s very notable.

Furthermore, Lyle told police he and Leslie had a fight, but at a news conference, he refused to answer any questions about their argument. If Lyle is being honest, he should have nothing to hide, so why won’t he talk about it? It’s another red flag.

Leo Stallworth, the reporter, also tells us that Lyle is launching his own investigation into his wife’s disappearance, but if Lyle is truly interested to find his wife, why wouldn’t he be cooperating with detectives? It makes no sense whatsoever.

The facts in this case speak volumes, but of course, it is always important to see Lyle speak.

When I first saw Lyle, I got an immediate sense that he likely has a temper. I get that from what I call paralleling. I also suspect that he is the controlling, dominant one in the relationship, and his wife, Leslie, was the more docile one of the two of them. This means that his character doesn’t bode well for the given situation. If I saw someone who was humble here, it would make me question everything, but I don’t. I see arrogance, instead, which gives me more concern.

When the detective says that Lyle’s cooperation is fragmented, did you notice Lyle is exchanging some words with a woman at that time? Look at how he is talking, ignoring the press conference and telling her what he thinks. Look at his body language and how he moving his hand as he talks. There is obviously tension between Lyle and this woman, and Lyle is clearly making his opinion known. Why did Lyle feel like he had to speak up at this moment during the press conference? Why couldn’t he control himself here? Notice how the woman at the end ignores him? She realizes Lyle is making a spectacle of himself.

Lyle’s body language is interesting when the reporter talks to him in the parking garage. Do you notice how relaxed and calm he is? I get no sense that he is upset, agitated or grieving for his wife. He acts like this day is like any other day. Most people who are looking for a lost loved one show some tension, stress or express their emotions. Lyle does none of this. It’s another oddity.

Lyle goes on to say, “Couples have…ah… discussions about many things all at a time, you know, so, um…you know, it was nothing out of the ordinary, uh…uh… but ah… I really can’t put a finger on it, you know?” I find it interesting how he changes the tone of his argument to a “discussion” here. Is he sanitizing his behavior? Trying to paint himself in a different light?

Furthermore, it appears like he might be smirking when says he can’t put a finger on it, but I can’t tell for sure because it is cut. However, does his statement, “I really can’t put a finger on it” make any sense at all? It’s suggestive that he is denying they even had an argument now, isn’t it? Why would he do that? This is suggestive of someone who is manipulative.

Lyle goes on to say,”I enjoy the warmth of my wife, I enjoy everything about her, you know, so… I just truly miss her right now.” Clearly talking about the “warmth of my wife” is an odd statement. I completely agree with you all in the comment section. I also find the words “right now” rather odd and interesting as well. Why does he feel that way “right now“?

Lyle talks about himself and not about his wife when he says, “I don’t think it was a fair overview of my character. I haven’t slept. My eyes are red. I’m just totally devastated here.” If he is devastated, like he says, I would expect to see some emotions regarding his missing wife, but they are notably and strangely absent. He is a blank slate. More than that, if he is truly devastated, shouldn’t he be describing his wife to us, asking us for our help, so he can bring her back, if she is truly missing? Shouldn’t he have a photos of her if he is launching his own investigation?

Notice that everything Lyle says contradicts his actions, behavior and emotions? When actions, behaviors or emotions don’t match the spoken word, pay attention: Pay close attention. It means things aren’t as they appear.

I fear for what happened to Leslie Herring…

Christina Raines Moves Out Again

Neighbors of Drew Peterson said they saw Christina Raines move out of Peterson’s home on Friday for the second time.

From the Bolingbrook Sun:

Before leaving, Raines shouted to Peterson, “I’ll be back for the rest of my stuff some time,” said Peterson’s neighbor, Sharon Bychowski, who watched the move.

When the two women departed, “Her sister whipped around the court (in her car),” Bychowski said. “‘Agitated’ is the word.”

According to CBS2Chicago.com, Raines’ engagement ring is being held by the Illinois state police. This is interesting. Did Peterson give Christina Stacy’s old ring? Why else would they have it? It sure makes you wonder what went on behind closed doors, doesn’t it?

Thanks, Rita, for the story update!

P.S. Don’t forget to vote for the next story you want me to write about here.

Lyle and Leslie Herring

Lyle Herring and his wife, Leslie, had an argument on February 8, 2009, and since that day, Leslie has not been seen. It wasn’t Lyle, however, who reported his wife missing, it was Leslie’s sister, Aasha Davis, who reported her sister missing two days after the alleged argument when she didn’t show up for work for several days. Davis is an actress for “Friday Night Lights” and “South of Nowhere”.

Lyle’s story is that after the couple argued, he took a nap, and hasn’t seen his wife since. Nothing about Lyle’s story at this point is adding up. He has been less than cooperative with police, but he has not been named a suspect.
