As the trial of Scott Peterson on charges that he murdered his wife, draws closer, the alternative claims get wilder and wilder. with biker gangs, nazis and flying fœtuses getting in on the act The defence plans to bring some unusual paintings in the area to the attention of the court, insisting that scenes of fire-breathing devils and ax-wielding grim reapers... a man and woman in a canoe, with what appear to be three floating babies nearby, intertwined with an umbilical cord
are evidence of a Satanic cult. The artists are surprised:
The artists, who call their collective Sniff, were shocked to hear that their paintings were caught up in the Peterson case.
There are some devilish images out there, but it's all in good fun,said Bruce Rayburn, who has his own construction business in El Sobrante and paints with four buddies at the Bulb each Saturday morning.The local people who walk their dogs have come to know us and like the paintings. Then this crazy story came out and put a different light on what we were doing. There's no message in the paintings. It's lots of meaningless things.

It wasn't Scott Peterson who was desperate. It was the prosecutors who, at every turn, found no evidence against him. Spinning the myth that his defense was based on 'satanists' instead of the actual evidence, or lack of it, distracted the foolish, lazy media from that lack and let them characterize the defense improperly.
