It appears that Drew Peterson isnt happy, as he writes letters from prison. According to his former attorney Joel Brodsky, prison is proving to be even worse than Peterson expected. (Not sure what Peterson expected prison to be like.....but welcome to the real world locked up behind bars Drew!) Youre alive and Kathleen and Stacy arent. Drew writes, Prison is all the nightmarish things that one would think. Im in a cell the size of a broom closet, peeling paint, rusting fixtures, I have no TV or anything and I havent been out since I got here. The food is terrible and Im again in solitary confinement. I have to ask......where are Kathleen and Stacy? We know that Kathleen died after being drowned in a tub of water.....but where is Stacy? The mother of two of your children. You told them she went away on vacation. How could he look those precious little ones in the eye and lie like that? Peterson was sentenced to 38 years behind bars. He will never have the luxury of the outside world again. Thats what happens when you murder two wives. Who can forget his cockiness with the press, smirking like he did? It proved to be his biggest downfall! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Two years ago, a jury in Will County found Drew Peterson guilty of murdering his third wife Kathleen Savio. He is now serving a 38 year prison sentence. Brodsky showed FOX 32 News some of the letters from the convicted killer and also talked about Drews life as an inmate. Joel Brodsky says hes gotten nine letters from Drew Peterson since the former Bolingbrook Police sergeant started serving his time at the Menard Correctional Center downstate on February 22. Brodsky read a portion of one letter dated March 7. Prison is all the nighmarish things that one would think, Peterson writes. Im in a cell the size of a broom closet, peeling paint, rusting fixtures, I have no TV or anything and I havent been out since I got here. The food is terrible and Im again in solitary confinement. Peterson is being housed in protective custody because hes a former cop and Brodsky says because of his so-called celebrity status. I know hes writing a lot of letters, I mean hes got a number of pen pals, hes told me. Brodsky says. So he stays busy writing letters and corresponding with people and, thinking about his appeal and I know he writes his children often. Brodsky would not discuss much about Petersons letters, citing attorney client privilege, but did share part of a second letter dated April 11, 2013. Peterson wrote: Joel, did you ever feel that something was going to happen before it does? I feel Im going to die in here. If the inmates dont get me Im gonna be killed by the cruel guards. Brodsky describes the tone of Petersons letters as at times thoughtful, reflective or wisecracking. Even though hes not representing Peterson in his appeal, Brodsky still writes back for several reasons. One is to help keep his spirits up, Brodsky believes. Two: to give him my opinion about certain things going on and Three just to reminisce a little bit about things that occurred over the last five years of our lives that were pretty extraordinary. When asked if there have been any confessions in the letters, Brodsky responded, None that I could tell you about, but no that wouldnt even be something I would ask him about. FOX 32s Craig Wall spoke to Kathleen Savios sister Sue Doman, who did not even realize it was the anniversary of Petersons conviction. When told about his letters, she said she has no sympathy for Peterson whatsoever, adding that she just wishes he would die. Admin/Sharon.... Article courtesy of Chicago (Fox 32 News)
