03/04/2008 A Day in the life of Drew Peterson (Part 3)

GRETA VAN SUSTEREN: Here's part 3 of our special segment, a day in the life of Drew Peterson. Sgt. Drew Peterson spoke with our OTR producers Cory Howard and Steph Watts. Yes, we are the only ones who have this so you will only see it right here.

DREW PETERSON (Getting kids into car seats): I think this is the toughest part of coming and going, It's like with the kids you don't ever just like to come and go, it's like, it's like an ordeal, buckling them up, buckling them in, getting them out. (Drew to Cory) You can climb in the back. Okay, this is how we drive (laughing)

CORY HOWARD: So where we headed Drew?

DREW PETERSON: We're going to go get Kristopher's eye glasses fixed, he just got eye glasses, we took him in, he had trouble seeing the blackboard at school so we got some eye glasses for him and first day he had them there's some girl sitting next to him put them on her head and broke them on him so it's like okay now we go get...

CORY HOWARD: Why did she do that?

DREW PETERSON: Have no idea, kids do what they do. I don't know Cory what's your opinion on the beard (laughing)

CORY HOWARD: It's scruffy.

DREW PETERSON: It's scruffy, I think it's scuffy because it's gray. Then we got to make a quick stop at the Enterprise Leasing where I rent my car from and a, renew my car lease for another month.

CORY HOWARD: So you're still having to rent cars?

DREW PETERSON: Right it's a costing me anywhere from $1,600 to a thousand dollars a month to a lease a car and it really cuts into the family budget but we're getting through it so.

CORY HOWARD: Do you have any idea when you get your cars back?

DREW PETERSON: Within thirty days of the judges ruling. The judge said everything was suppose to be returned to me so a, now they're still trying to keep my guns away from me, in order for me to get my guns back but now they're trying to take my gun card away so I can't have my guns but I'm not a policeman any longer so I really don't need the guns but a, but they're still mine so I'd like to have them back, and all my stuff back, they're more or less having them for a functional use, now, they're just for, I'm a collector so.

CORY HOWARD: How many guns do you have or did you..

DREW PETERSON: Ah, as many as twenty I'm thinking, fifteen twenty guns so, but the majority of them were for work.

CORY HOWARD: At one point didn't you give Stacy a gun as a present?

DREW PETERSON: yeah that was kind of a ruse, it was just like I gave her, I bought a Glock and I really didn't like em at first because they were mostly, there's a lot of plastic in em which I didn't like and basically I got her a Glock and it was right around Valentine's Day so able to killed two birds with a stone and I was going to say I gave it to her for a gift and the big joke was "Nothing says I love you like a Glock." (Snickers)

CORY HOWARD: Was she able to use it?

DREW PETERSON: No. She, she, actually I had her and a friend of hers down at the range one day and we were letting her shoot em and actually she was a pretty good shot which basically surprised me but her a, she was raised around guns all her life, her dad's a big, you know, gun collector also so a, Stacy wasn't a stranger to firearms so, she actually had no fear of them, she was actually kind of intrigued by them all, it was like when we first started going out she was like touching it, it's like okay (laughing), yeah but yeah, she was kind of fascinated with firearms and like I say she's not a bad shot just out of the box herself so.

CORY HOWARD: Now we're going out in the public, what can we expect? Do you usually get..

DREW PETERSON: Normally I get a lot of looks, people do a double take. I was on an airplane last night coming back from New York and I was actually seating in the very first row and everybody that got on the plane did a double take, you know, or, then you hear the whispering you know. I'll go into a restaurant at night and you'll hear this hum, there's Peterson, there's Peterson. (laughing)

CORY HOWARD: Has anybody ever approached you in a negative way?

DREW PETERSON: Oh yeah, we were out one night, a guy started yelling from across the bar, wanted to engage me in a physical combat, again, am I going to turn around and a make some idiot famous because I pummeling him, it's not going to happen so basically I just walked away from him.

(Going into grocery store with Lacy and Anthony)

CORY HOWARD: Drew, were we just coming from?

DREW PETERSON: Oh, we just went to Meijer's store and spent three hundred dollars on groceries

CORY HOWARD: How often do you do that?

DREW PETERSON: Once a week, we just got about six gallons of milk and the kids go through it all so I don't mind spending the money as long as they are eating healthy, so, and a, along with the housekeeper, I'm also the chief cook and we have to plan meals and we cook every night and we'll maybe go out maybe once a week.

STEPH WATTS: I want to thank you today for letting us in your house with your family

DREW PETERSON: No problem, so you have an inside view of the place, playboy jetset lifestyle of Drew Peterson, (laughing)

STEPH WATTS: It's a tough job being a Dad isn't it?

DREW PETERSON: It's a tough job and I say to all the housewives of America, I a, I have a new appreciation for you all.
