Drew Peterson

"I did not kill Kathleen!" yelled Drew Peterson at his trial. Drew Peterson has been in the media since 2007 for killing his wife. Drew Peterson had a 30-year career as a police officer with the Bolingbrook Police Department. Peterson has had four different wives. His first wife he divorced. His second wife he divorced. His third wife he supposedly killed. And his fourth wife disappeared.
After his third wife, Kathleen Savio, was found dead in a waterless bathtub, nobody thought he was guilty. In 2007, his fourth wife, Stacy Peterson disappeared.
The families of both Stacy Peterson and Kathleen Savio pushed for further investigation. Eventually, in 2009 Peterson was indicted by the Will County Grand Jury and arrested for Savio's murder. On September 6th, 2012, Peterson was found guilty of the premeditated murder of Kathleen Savio. Yesterday, Peterson was sentenced to 38 years in prison.
I am grateful that the Drew Peterson case is over. The issue with his case was the media. The media made a celebrity of Peterson. He was absolutely heartless on camera. Cracking jokes about his dead wives. It makes me sick.
