(Newser) – Drew Peterson is broke and has huge legal bills, so he’s looking to sell his home. But not to just anyone. The former police sergeant, accused of murdering his third wife, figures he’ll get a premium if he sells it to a news organization as a “base camp” to use while covering his trial, reports the Chicago Sun-Times. "It would be a perfect place for someone like Geraldo Rivera,” said Peterson’s lawyer. “Don't you think?"

Hopefully a lot of very mean, huge folks in jail find his looks as enticing as the young girls who for whatever reason fell for him. Since he is still not executed...

Some stories just make you wonder how some of these wackos made it through the evolutionary curve. Surely this guys DNA should have stopped short around the lizard stage. (P.S. If you are a creationist reading this, what I mean he is like the a descendent of the prodigal son who never came back and his ancestors should never have survived the 6000 years since the earth and man was created).
