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

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.

121. 24. Is this like the third high-publicized case where a guy named Peterson has killed his wife? Geez what is in that family gene pool?

YES!! We're SURROUNDED. Scott in California, Mike in North Carolina, and now Drew in between. Lacey, Kathy, (Kathleen) and Stacy. How creepy is that?? My name ends in "y", too, I'm for damned sure not going to date any man with the last name of Peterson. Baaaad Juju.

122. this guy is guilty plain and simple, he got away with murder and now he is just running around in front of the cameras acting like a ass. No compassion what so ever for his kids or their feelings about their mother missing. If it was me I would do anything possible to clear my name and find her for the kids sake, HE"S A DUMB ASS..

Yes! Let's change the plea and verdict selections, "guilty", "not guilty", and "Go Directly To Hell".

125. It's all a ploy by his droopy lawyer Joel Brodsky. Somehow the man thinks Drew is a celebrity and should be treated as such..hahahaha...his belief is to get so much media attention that when Drew is found guilty an appeal can go in place that jurors were biased or he will try and have them thrown off the case midway during the trial. I can see it now. The man is a clown. He has no skills as an attorney, he is blatantly mocking the judicial system of which he is supposed to represent and God pity the judge that sits on Drew's bench as he is going to be subjected to watching his courtroom turn into a complete circus! There will be more contempt of court charges that I cannot even begin to imagine the volumes of paperwork it's going to take to keep record! Yes...just another slimy tactic by a slimy attorney and a sicko defendant. I say let him record the show....if for any reason that it could be cool to watch the ISP come and arrest Drew right smack in the middle of the taping of the show. Now THAT would be great watching!

126. Next thing you know is Brodsky is going to set up an "AMERICA IDOLs DREW" show in which members can phone in and vote his guilt or innocence...........for a $5.95 fee of course. ;)

128. We all know he did it. We all know he knew exactly how to cover it up. He should be in jail. Is he walking free because he was a cop?

129. Where is the waterboard when we need it?

130. Ric Mims, you are as sickening as Steve Carcerano! I would not believe a word that comes out of your self-serving mouth! You just make up anything you think will get you on TV. Drew Peterson is a MURDERER. Steve Carcerano and YOU are Liars. Only difference is that Steve Carcerano is lying to cover for Drew Peterson, and YOU are lying for money and your 15 minutes!! I cannot stand to look at your smirky face!!!

131. I Believe Peterson has a friend who has a warehouse. He put the container in that warehouse and it is most likely on the bottom of many containers. He was to steady while they were dragging the water. Find that warehouse and you find the body.

132. Don't know if he is innocent or guilty that is for a jury to decide somewhere down the line. However, I am curious about the exhumed third wife.....Considering she was probably embalmed prior to burial and her body passed through several hands, how good is this evidence?....I am having an issue with the homicide-staging part being proven without a reasonable doubt....How can they disapprove contamination from third parties etc.....know what I mean?

133. Because, RazzleADazzle, they should be able to determine if the head injury was before or after death. They are also looking at the pictures taken of the crime scene at the time of the death. She had suspicious bruising when she died and there are pictures of that as well. In addition, people on the scene said she had blood in her hair and the tub was dry except for blood. This is suspicious if she drowned, the blood should have been mixed with water, the tub should have had some water in it.

Either something suspicious is up or Drew Peterson is the unluckiest man alive.

134. Nice one thanks the for the good info

135. Everyone..............Drew Peterson is a very clever man. Therefore, I think that when he had his relative carry the blue barrel out of the house and put it into the truck for the neighbour to see.........isn't that just a little too blatently obvious for him??? Only a real idiot would have had someone help carry Stacy out in a barrel from their bedroom.....I think that was a setup sham. I think that he had already disposed of her body.........look under the swimming pool in the backyard............dig down a little.....
