Evelyn Hernandez - Comparison To Peterson Case

Comparison To Peterson Case

Many observers have drawn parallels between Hernandez's death and that of Laci Peterson, a Modesto, California woman who was murdered while eight months pregnant in December 2002, noting that Hernandez's case did not receive the same level of publicity. Scott Peterson's attorney, Mark Geragos, suggested at one point that the two pregnant women could have been murdered by a ritualistic Satanic cult, pointing out the way both women's bodies were decomposed and the location where both bodies were found.

On September 20, 2006, former Congress member William E. Dannemeyer sent a letter to Attorney General Bill Lockyer pointing out that both Peterson and Hernandez disappeared on satanic holy days, and that they both ended up in the San Francisco Bay with their hands, feet, and heads missing.
