Congressional Aide Fired Over Alleged Love Letters To Scott Peterson
An aide for a Louisiana congressman has been fired for reportedly
corresponding with convicted killer Scott Peterson while on the job.
Theresa Mares was an aide for Republican Representative Rodney Alexander.
His office announced that Mares was fired in mid-August after he learned
she sent at least 18 love letters to Peterson.
A spokesman said Alexander found out from a National Enquirer reporter who
wrote a story about the letters.
Peterson is on death row in San Quentin Prison for killing his wife, Laci,
and their unborn son. Their bodies were found on the shore of San
Francisco Bay months after her December 2002 disappearance.
Mares had worked for Alexander since he first took office in 2003 and was
a caseworker in his central Louisiana office.
