State police: 70 agents still assigned to missing woman case

Although the case isn't getting as much attention as in past weeks, officials of the Illinois State Police say a team of agents continues to investigate the disappearance of Stacy Peterson.

Trooper Mark Dorencz said Wednesday that at any given time, between 70 and 80 agents are assigned to the investigation. He says nearly 1,300 tips have been received, from which about 500 leads have been generated.

Peterson has been missing since October 28. In November, police labeled her disappearance a possible homicide and named her husband, former Bolingbrook police Sergeant Drew Peterson a suspect. He has not been charged and has denied any involvement in her disappearance.

Dorencz says police also continue their investigation into the 2004 death of Drew Peterson's third wife, Kathleen Savio, who was found dead in her bathtub.
