Bored with politics and Carpocalypse … wonder what other stupid shit is out there?
Looks like it’s bride number 5 for Drew Peterson.
You’re shitting me.
“Yeah, he proposed and she accepted,” Peterson’s attorney, Joel Brodsky, said of his client’s impending nuptials.
But Brodsky added, “I guess he’s got to get divorced.” Peterson’s current wife, Stacy, has been missing since last year.
And number three was murdered. In total, three divorces, one dead, one missing. Anyone sense a pattern here?
Kathleen — Kathleen Savio, wife number 3 — was the victim of an unsolved March 2004 homicide. Stacy — wife number 4 — vanished in October 2007. State police say she is the victim of a potential homicide and have named Drew Peterson their sole suspect.
I think if wife number 5 winds up dead or missing she should get an automatic Darwin Award.
Peterson’s publicist,
[sound of jaw hitting floor]
Glenn Selig, said Drew’s betrothed is a 23-year-old woman from the Bolingbrook area, making her even younger than Stacy, who would be 24.
I need a drink.
A sleepy Peterson on Wednesday morning seemed perturbed that news of his engagement had leaked.
“I can’t believe this is happening,” he said. ”How the f— did this get out?”
Peterson said he wants to keep details of his new love under wraps.
“Last time I had a relationship, you guys screwed it all up,” he said of 22-year-old tanning salon worker Kim Matuska. “The police had her, the grand jury had her. I’m not putting her through all that.”
Best bit of luck Kim ever had.
So he doesn't consider murder to be "screwing up" a relationship, then. Good thing he has his priorities straight, and I mean I'm sure "she had it coming." What a piece of shit.

If she lives long enough, she'll be body bag number 3.

Fun fact: If he really did off all of his ex-wives (he *is* innocent until proven guilty, obvious though he may be), then he's what's known as a "Bluebeard Killer," named after the old story about duder's seventh wife finding the heads of her six predecessors. It sure would help the case if this new one found some heads, but seeing how empty her own apparently is, I doubt it.

That this guy can still get women to date him is depressing enough alone.
