Savio's family: Money likely motive
Posted May 17, 2009 11:00 pm
Members of Kathleen Savio's family say they think Drew Peterson killed her for money.
Savio's father, Henry Savio, and her brother, Nick Savio, spoke Monday outside the Will County Courthouse where Peterson pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder charges in the death of his third wife, Kathleen Savio.
Henry Savio says he believes Peterson did kill his daughter and that "a lot of it is money." Nick Savio also says he thinks money, specifically Peterson's pension, was a motive.
Family members all say they want Peterson to stay in jail, not be released on reduced bond. Peterson will remain jailed on $20 million bond until at least Thursday.
Henry Savio says his one wish is "to have this done."
