Celebrity Justice
"Moment of Truth" to Catch a Killer?

Posted Jan 29th 2008 12:35PM by TMZ Staff

A well-placed source tells TMZ that reps for suspected wife killer Drew Peterson have contacted the producers of the new show "Moment of Truth," asking to hookup their client to a lie detector test on national television.

Peterson's fourth wife Stacey has been missing and presumed dead since last October. Peterson's third wife, Kathleen Savio, was found dead in a bathtub in March 2004. At the time, her death was ruled accidental, but since Stacey's disappearance, Savio's body was exhumed for forensic examination and officials determined her death to be a "homicide staged to look like an accident."

Stacey's family has continually asked Drew to submit to a lie detector test -- which he has repeatedly refused to do, until now.

Peterson denies any involvement in Stacey's disappearance, insisting she left him for another man.

A FOX spokesperson had no comment.

2. Oh please - he is a cop and a darn good killer. You think he hasn't "learned" how to fake this test? That's why the evidence is so hard to gather - he KNOWS what he is doing!

3. It'd be interesting for sure. I'd really like to know what's going on in Chicago with the female body they found Friday near a blue barrel about 20 miles from his house. Remember, two truck drivers said that Drew asked him to transport a blue barrel for him and it was rumored that her body was in it. Now, the Chicago police are saying there was no blue barrel, just a female body with reddish-blonde hair - yet the news footage definately shows a blue barrel - is it another cover up?

4. Ok.. if Stacy ran off with someone else do you not think she would have come forward by now? I mean... if you knew everyone was out looking for you or your BODY you would come forward and say YOOHOO I am here. I think he is guilty.. how many wives does he get to kill before he gets caught?

6. lie detectors aren't effective in "telling the truth". They aren't even admissable in courts. stupid, stupid, stupid

7. He would not be a good candidate - he knows all the tricks and how to fool the test. Besides, no one wants to see his ugly slimy butt on any show. He craves attention - don't give it to him.

8. This guy is a cop! I'm sure he knows how to pass this test! He is so guilty.

9.

Surely that is not true.

That's too disgusting to even contemplate.

11. Yesterday's new's said the body found was NOT Stacy or Lisa Spevic?? Don't know if name is spelled right. Peterson is guilty in my opinion. Maybe devalues all women in such a way it doesn't matter if he "offs" them when the time is right. Hope justice is served in the end for him.

12. oh what I'd give to see Drew convict himself on this show. He has the ego to think he can outsmart a lie detector - I bet he would get tripped up. Remember that they're not admissible in court, so it wouldn't do any good. I think we'll be reading about his arrest for his 3rd wife's murder. The authorities are working quietly, but effectively!

13. It would be great if he made BRITNEY his fourth wife!!!!

14. Those of you who do not live in Chicago may not beleave this, but Drew went on a local show (Steve Dahl) and offered to partisipate in a "Win A Date With Drew" contest! The radio station turned down the offer the next day. I think he knows the state police (who are conducting the investigation) have no evidence.

15. Drew and his lawyer say I am a fraud. I would go on there and prove I am telling the truth about Drew.
