Scott Peterson Is Reportedly Trading Sex for Protection Behind Bars
Being famous and in prison is not a good combination. Being infamous and widely despised and in prison is usually worse.
Scott Peterson is about as infamous and widely despised as it gets, and his fellow inmates at San Quentin prison know that.
A new report alleges Peterson is so desperate to avoid the wrath of other prisoners that he is trading sexual favors for protection.
Raynard Cummings is a convicted cop killer and an armed robber.
He has been in prison since 1983 for the shooting of LAPD Officer Paul Verna.
In a lengthy letter published by RadarOnline, Cummings reveals that Scott Peterson is trading sexual favors for protection from a group of strong, burly inmates — including Cummings.
RadarOnline shares that Cummings is 61 years old, 6-foot-6, and 250 pounds.
It sounds like Cummings able to offer a great deal of protection from the regular beatings that Peterson would otherwise experience in general population.
Cummings has a nickname for Peterson — his “snowbunny.” Outside of prison, that nickname has some very different meanings. Behind bars, well …
Cummings and his group within San Quentin are apparently known as the Tribe.
In addition to sexual favors, Peterson apparently performs unenviable chores — like washing the Tribe’s underwear — and also gives them backrubs with massage oil int he showers.
Though Cummings cannot imagine why Peterson actually requested to be moved out of protective custody and placed in the general population, he writes that he enjoys reaping the benefits.
“Taking SP [Scott Peterson] in was and is one of the sweetest move[s] I’ve ever made in 37 years of death row imprisonment,” Cummings writes.
“For whatever reasons,” Cummings writes. “SP wanted to hang out with the baddest of the blackness…This is the circle in which SP chose to walk into in the middle — and then to stay in the middle of — learning the program.”
“I call him my Death Row sissy,” Cummings explains. “Because he’ll do just about anything to save his worthless neck.”
Wow.
Cummings elaborates, saying: “He knows he’s one of the most hated men in here and could be killed at any moment.”
Cummings even included some more salacious details about his interactions with Peterson in the showers, writing: “The shower felt silky-smooth and SP to me is one handsome white boy.”
The world knows the grisly details of Laci Peterson’s murder. So many people wasted countless hours searching for Laci when, the court concluded, her husband knew the whole time where she was — because he had been the one to murder her.
Scott Peterson has been on death row for many years, now.
He has made numerous attempts to appeal his conviction, but to no avail.
It is difficult to imagine why someone like Peterson would want to enter the general population — unless, of course, he simply had a death wish, and changed his mind afterwards.
What Cummings describes should probably not be confused with prison rape, another serious issue. This sounds like Peterson has effectively hired these men to protect him from other men.
But it’s still not a good situation.
Some might view Cummings’ letter as some form of justice.
Others believe that every day on which Peterson draws breath is an injustice, and that we — all of us who are good people — will live in a better world the day that he finally dies.
Whether or not you believe the word of a death row inmate who was convicted of murdering a police officer during a routine traffic stop, the letter is an indictment of the prison system.
Even if you believe that Peterson deserves his current fate as described by Cummings, we all know that there are innocent people behind bars who become victims of violence.
We should have prisons designed in such a way that inmates, guilty or innocent, are not at the mercy of strong, vicious criminals who have nothing to lose.
That said … it is difficult if not impossible to feel sorry for Scott Peterson.

Scott Peterson Builds Prison Shrine to Murdered Wife
Back in 2002, the murder trial of Scott Peterson captivated millions and dominated tabloid headlines for several months.
As we approach the 15-year anniversary of the slaying of Laci Peterson and her unborn child, the case has seen a resurgence in public interest.
And many are finding themselves in the position of being newly disgusted by the man convicted of killing his pregnant wife in cold blood.
Peterson was convicted of murder in 2004, but his case is currently on appeal to the Supreme Court of California.
Legal experts say it’s unlikely that his conviction will be overturned.
Now, Radar Online has published a number of chilling new details about the San Quentin cell that’s served as Scott’s home for the past 13 years.
Sources tell the site that despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary, Scott still insists that he’s innocent of killing his wife and unborn son, Conner.
In fact, he keeps a photo of Laci in his cell as part of what insiders describe as a “shrine” devoted to the late teacher.
“I can’t believe Scott has the nerve to keep Laci’s picture in his prison cell after what he did to her. It’s appalling!” says one source.
“What’s even more disturbing is he refers to Laci as ‘my wife’ in the letters!”
Apparently, much of the outgoing correspondence the tipster refers to consists of letters addressed to female fans of Scott’s who remain convinced of his innocence.
It was on Christmas Eve of 2002 that Peterson called police in Modesto, California and reported his wife missing.
“I suspected Scott when I first met him,” says Allen Brocchini, a retired Modesto homicide detective who served as lead investigator on the case.
It wasn’t until four months later that the bodies of Laci and Conner Peterson were found near San Francisco, in an area where Scott had been fishing the night of the disappearance.
The case against Scott was virtually open-and-shut:
In addition to the wealth of physical evidence, police were able to prove Scott had been in contact with his mistress, Amber Frey, on the night of Laci’s murder.
Additionally, Peterson has dyed his hair and withdrew a large sum of cash, seemingly with the intention of fleeing the country.
Members of Laci’s family say they’ll never come to terms with Scott’s atrocities, but they hope that his execution will bring them a modicum of peace.

Scott Peterson: Was He Plotting to Murder Amber Frey, Too?!
Despite the grisly details of Laci Peterson’s murder and Scott Peterson’s conviction and death sentence, there are still a few people out there who believe that Scott Peterson is innocent.
(The comments that we got the last time that we wrote about this are evidence enough of the enduring controversy)
We wonder what his defenders will think of the news that Scott Peterson allegedly planned to murder his mistress, too. …
Yikes.
So, to those of you who may have forgotten, Amber Frey was Scott Peterson’s mistress.
She also testified against him in court.
Even if you didn’t pay attention at the time of the trial or you were too young to have really been exposed to the coverage, you probably recognize Amber’s name.
(And, not for nothing, but “Amber Frey” is one of the best names that we have ever heard, ever, in our lives. But maybe don’t go naming your kids that)
It sounds like Amber might have never gotten the chance to testify if Scott Peterson hadn’t been apprehended while allegedly trying to flee south of the border.
Scott Peterson looked completely different when he was captured.
Law enforcement believed that he had disguised himself in order to flee to Mexico and avoid his trial.
He didn’t make it, and now he sits on death row for the murder of Laci Peterson.
Laci Peterson was 8 months pregnant. Their child would have been a son named Connor.
His fetus was actually found before Laci’s body; investigators believe that the fetus had slipped out of her body while in the water.
Laci’s body was also missing most or all of various limbs, along with her head. After such a massive search, it was a … grim find.
Scott was convicted, but it sounds like might have done more than just escape if he hadn’t been caught.
According to RadarOnline, Scott Peterson was in possession of a map to Amber Frey’s home.
Why, you might ask, would Scott need a map to the home of his mistress?
Some apparently believe that he was planning to murder Amber Frey, too.
You might wonder what Scott Peterson’s possible motive might have been.
But you should remember that Scott Peterson had apparently claimed, weeks before his wife’s death, that he was a recent widower and that this Christmas would be his first without his wife.
An absurd lie to tell, even if, at the time, he wasn’t planning Laci’s murder but simply trying to get a little sympathy.
But after his wife’s death, one wonders if Scott ever thought about his past words and how they might be used against him.
Unfortunately, we don’t know for certain why Scott Peterson might have had that map.
We also don’t know even the exact cause of death behind Laci Peterson’s murder.
Scott Peterson, despite everything, has maintained his innocence, even as he sits on death row, waiting for his lethal injection.
Understandably, Scott would have little to gain from confessing now.
And, as we’ve mentioned, he still has some avid supporters who believe that police jumped to conclusions.
Hey, O.J. Simpson still has people who believe that he was framed. That’s just how people are.

Laci Peterson: What Was Her Grisly Cause of Death?
Few names are more infamous than that of Scott Peterson.
When we’re talking about famous cases of murder, the only more famous defendants in recent memory are O.J. Simpson an Casey Anthony. Unlike the others, Scott Peterson was convicted — and sits on Death Row to this day.
Though the ill-fated search for Laci Peterson and then Scott’s trial fascinated the nation, a recent docuseries has revived interest in Laci’s murder and her husband’s trial. So here’s a reminder of the grisly facts — including what we know about Laci’s cause of death.
First of all, don’t confuse Scott Peterson with Drew Peterson.
Both men are in prison — though Drew is actually accused of having murdered two of his wives.
(They’re not brothers or anything, though some have semi-jokingly suggested to be leery of any guy with the last name of Peterson … which is unfair to people with that name, but, hey, it’s always good to be cautious with any guy with any name)
Laci Peterson was last seen alive on December 24th, 2002. She was, at the time, pregnant — and she’d been pregnant for half a year.
Part of the reason for the renewed interest in the case that comes along with this docuseries is that a lot of people aren’t aware of the details of her murder because they were younger at the time or because they’ve forgotten with time.
The search for Laci after she “went missing” was massive, involving thousands of people attending a vigil. Banners were erected and posters were put up, as it was not in Laci’s character to disappear without explanation.
If this all sounds like Gone Girl, well, we have to imagine that this very specific story was a huge influence.
Sadly, Laci Peterson’s story was real, and her disappearance was not manufactured.
Her body was discovered in April of 2003.
First, the body of a prenatal fetus was discovered by a couple walking their dog (yes, just like on every third Law & Order episode).
The next day — on April 14th — the body of a woman wearing cream-covered maternity pants washed up, only a mile away from where that fetus was found.
Those two grim discoveries were not coincidental, as the body was discovered to belong to Laci Peterson and the fetus was what would have become Connor Peterson, her unborn child with Scott.
That’s never how you want a missing person’s case to end, but … it got worse.
As for the grisly cause of death, that is difficult to determine.
Actually, it’s impossible to determine with reasonable certainty.
(Seriously, think carefully about whether or not you want to read these details)
Laci Peterson was decapitated and partially or completely missing three of her limbs.
Though she was wrapped in tape and nylon cord, her lower abdomen had opened.
This explained the condition of the fetus, which had one and a half loops of nylon cord wrapped around its neck.
This appears to have happened naturally, as the fetus exited through a perforation in Laci’s uterus and then at some point exited her body..
A horrifying image.
Laci Peterson’s body also had two cracked ribs.
Determining which injuries were related to her death and which came after was basically an impossible task.
It’s easy to point to behavior and say that it’s “shady,” since everyone grieves differently.
Prosecutors believe that Scott Peterson’s motive was that the family’s debt was increasing and that he dreamed of being single again.
Being married hadn’t been stopping him from having affairs with Laci, including with a woman named Amber Frey — whom he told, just weeks before his wife’s death, that was a widower and that this Christmas would be his first without his wife.
So, you know, yikes.
There was also some physical evidence, which is why Scott is on death row. Including a hair of Laci’s that was found on some of Scott Peterson’s boat tools.
So, when someone brings up the subject of Scott Peterson or talks about the A&E documentary series: The Murder of Laci Peterson … that’s the story.
That’s why the state of California has condemned Scott Peterson to death.
