Speaker 2 (00:52):
Hi. There, I'm Morgan Absher and I'm Kaylin Moore.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Between Morgan's show, two hot takes in my show, Heartsarts Pounding.
We've spent years dissecting the Internet's craziest stories and the
world's most chilling true crime cases.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And now we're teaming up on Clues, a crime House
original show powered by paved Studios every Wednesday, and Clues
will break down the small but crucial details that cracked
open some of the most infamous cases. I'll be your
Internet sleuth, pulling out the threads that don't add up
or maybe do, and digging into the unanswered questions that
(01:24):
still linger.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
And I'll be peezing together the timelines, analyzing the forensic science,
and tracking the hard evidence that changed everything.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
We're talking about the hair fiber that sealed a conviction,
a footprint that blew open an alibi, and the case
that took decades to solve until somebody finally connected the dots.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
And some clues are obvious, but some are hidden in
plain sight, and sometimes they lead to places and convictions
that no one ever expected.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
So if you're like us and can't stop combing through
case files and crime documentaries, this is the show for you.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Tune in every week for clues where even the littlest
details matter and sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Today we are opening up the case file for the
murder of Lacy Peterson. I want to get into a
few more of these clues, but can you give us
a little bit more background on Scott's boat first.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yes, it's important to know a little bit more about
this boat. Actually, so Scott bought it on December ninth,
two thousand and two, about two weeks prior to Lacey's disappearance,
And if you've been paying attention to the timeline here,
December ninth is also when he told amber Fry, his mistress,
that he had a wife who had passed away previously.
(02:35):
Just so we're all on the same page with that.
He also bought this boat in cash, which, when you
also add in the fact that he was keeping in
a warehouse away from his family, no one knew about
this boat. There's no paper trail leading him to this boat.
Feels pretty secretive. According to Scott, on December twenty fourth,
the day Lacey went missing, that was the first time
he had ever taken this boat out in general, even
(02:56):
though he had bought it on December ninth, he had
never taken it out before, but he thought that the
day Lacy went missing also was like the perfect time
to take it out Christmas Eve?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Why not? Yeah? Right?
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Five hours round trip. Can't get over that. Scott himself
even said that Lacey had never been on this boat before,
but one of the biggest clues in this case was
found on the boat.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Which brings us to our second clue, which is two
dark strands of hair that were found in a pair
of pliers on Scott's boat. Initially, it was reported that
only one strand of hair was found, but months later
it came out that there was actually a second strand
of hair that was found in the evidence envelope, and.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Eventually the prosecution for this case argued that because Lacey's
hair was found on the boat, it meant that she
had been on the boat, if not when she was alive,
then when she was dead. Because hair wasn't just found
on clothing, it wasn't just found strewn about in the boat,
like maybe it had gotten on Scott's shirt and fell
(03:55):
off whatever. It was wrapped up in pliers. Yeah, and
very strange spot for the hair to be.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I mean, it would seemingly have to be kind of
intentional for it to get caught. I shed everywhere, Like
if you went and looked in my car right now,
there'd be blonde hairs everywhere. But it was the fact
that they were wrapped up in those players. And it's
not odd for someone to have pliers on a boat,
especially when fishing. You know, you could use them to
take a fish off of your hook, or cut a
(04:23):
line that got tangled or whatever. It's not that, it's
the fact that, by his own admission, Scott said Lacy
had never been on the boat.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Right and again too. It makes me think about how
maybe there was a chance that he hugged her goodbye
in the morning. Hair got on his shirt, it got
onto the boat, but we're never going to know that
because Scott washed his clothes the second he got home,
so all of that evidence has gone.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
