Okay guys- Thank Goodness for DVR's...... I've taken notes, and will now try to tell you the jist of everything said on Greta tonight. Bear with me.

First segment. Greta with Furhman.

Furhman says that Bolingbrook PD is happy that the state police took over this case, and that BBPD thinks the state police are doing a good job. He also said that he (Furhman) has a sense, knowing how cops think, and from being around these cops, that they definitely think something is not right, and has not been right with Sgt Peterson.

Fuhrman says that DP is back in the house. They're certain he's home because DP was trying to get their help by using their homes to quietly come and go and not to talk to the media, but "none of his neighbors are keeping his secrets" The sentiment there was that the neighbors are 'humoring' him. That's what I took from what Furhman said.

Surveillance and searches are not being talked about, but are being conducted privately.

Next.......

Greta had Dr. Baden on, they have a copy of the autopsy report of the 3rd wife. He said "It was not an accident"! He said the autopsy shows blood in her hair, multiple contusions to the head & bruising about the body. He said it was more like a beating than a drowning. Said he cannot understand how a coroner could rule this accidental and that it was not even a close call on the autopsy! Wow!!

Bruces interview didn't have much new in it, said that he called her around 10 a.m. (I think) and that she said she had just been laying around in bed & for him to call her back when her sister got up & then they would meet at the house they planned to paint. Well, he said the sister went to her moms and they scrapped the painting & he sent a text message to Stacy & never received a reply. I guess later in the day the sister tried to call her & informed Bruce that she was not returning her calls, at which time Bruce told the sister that she never replied to his text message from earlier in the day either.

Greta with Bruce:

Timeline of Sunday according to Bruce.

Sunday morning around 10 AM, he shared back and forth text messages with Stacey. She then called him at 10:15. She said that she had been just lounging in bed for a couple of hours, and that she AND HER KIDS were going to go to the house to paint today. Bruce was supposed to wait to hear from Stacey's sister Cassandra, and then call Stacey after Cassandra got in touch with them. Then they were all to meet over there to paint. However, Cassandra had decided to go to her mother's house that day, and didn't call Bruce. At 4PM Bruce sent Stacey a text message saying "Lets paint tomorrow". He received no reply.

Greta asked him when he began to worry about Stacey. Bruce said that Cassandra called him around 7 PM and said she had not been able to reach Stacey all day. He relayed that he had not heard from her since 10 or so that morning, and that he didn't get a reply to the 4 PM text message he had sent her.

Bruce talks about Drew:

He knew DP for 3 years. The marriage has been troubled for the last year or so. Nothing violent. DP "seems like a normal guy".

There is a search organized for tomorrow to hand out fliers and search for Stacey. Gave address for search. Bruce says he's operating under the assumption that Stacey's alive. "She's been kidnapped or somethin.." He then looks around like he only half-believes that. He looks very uncomfortable.

Up Next.. Greta interviews close friend of Stacey's.

The close friend is on now, she will not show her face or give her name. However, if she's trying to hide from DP- he'll probably recognize her voice.

Friend has known SP for 3 years. She says Stacey is "warm, bubbly, an amazing mother". She loves her baby. Devoted mother. Her children are everything to her. "Stacey would never leave her children no matter what her circumstance was".

Friend on DP & SP's marriage: SP was trying to end marriage. Didn't feel she could end it safely. DP followed SP "24/7". If she went on outings, or to her school, he would show up. She saw him circling the school parking lot shortly after she got inside one day. He was looking for her car. SP was afraid of DP. He was always controlling, but it got more intense very recently. He thought she wanted to end the marriage, and he did not want that to happen. SP told friend that she thought DP would kill her if she tried to leave him.

SP had no boyfriend or romantic interest. Friend is adamant that SP would have told her if she had been having an affair.

Dr Baden and Greta talk about the autopsy report. Blunt force laceration on the top of her head, hair "soaked in blood". A dozen other bruises and scrapes and abrasions. Looked like she hadn't just been drowned, but had been beaten. No X Rays were taken, so they don't know about broken bones. If she hasn't been cremated, they need to exhume her. Dr Baden tells Greta that this is NOT even a close call.... couldn't have been an accident. The medical examiner, an MD, ruled it a drowning. The county coroner, a non- MD- ruled it an accident. Greta and Baden and the panel all agree that this coroner will have some questions to answer.

ETA: NO DRUGS/ ALCOHOL in her system.

Bruce said he sent her a text message at 4 PM. He never received a reply. I don't think he could tell whether she received the message.. (IE: If her phone was on or off). I know I can't tell if someone receives it when I send someone a text.
