He is still "cocky" as ever
Why wouldn't he? Clearly that's an attribute that women find desirable. He ran thru 5 women with ease in serious relationships, had 6 kids, had the last wife lie for him (provide alibi) even after he told her that he murdered his previous wife, married his last wife when she was 19, was engaged to a 23 year old in 2008 (long after his story of murder was known by all), had a full fledged career in policing, and is now 70... too old to really enjoy anything outside of prison anyway. Inside, everything is taken care for him.
Maybe he has reason we won't ever know
He’s trying to stay in general population in prison so people don’t give him justice!
He sure is . I was in reception with him , and he was always talking about how smart he is .
His children's absolution pales to his confrontation at The Final Judgement.
I remember Drew Petersons crimes . This guys is a complete sociopath, Thank god he was convicted so he cannot kill another innocent woman. He will NEVER admit his guilt or will NEVER have any remorse for killing his wives.
Amen gay who married and lied and beat 2 women to death nut he didn't hate women right and my gay lovers were meaningless too he said. Sociopath. He did not love anyone
Polls, He is a Psychopath. ✌️
Narcissist.
Because he’s too much of a narcissist 🤬
a white O.J. Simpson
He isn’t fooling anyone. Guilty as sin.
Donald Sutherland really let himself go.
Omg lol
This man is the face of evil.
Agreed. Just like my Ex.
@@unlistedandtwisted he will rot in prison, his arrogant ass will rot first
@@unlistedandtwisted😂😂😂
@@unlistedandtwisted You are still alive though
@@TonyVega123 For better or worse lol.
He hates children being hurt. However, his children were all hurt losing their mothers and father.
Children are only possessions and pawns in a narcs world.
It’s obvious his children mean a lot to him, however they know he did it! He can claim whatever he wants. At the end of the day, he’s guilty!
Narcissistic is where he belongs . He thought he was he was the smartest person in the room….. look where that got him!
He is in denial to himself so much so he somehow justifies his actions in that he had "no choice" to do what he did. 😢 Very sad.
he’s using his kids as a front to make him look good
This makes him look even worse. I didn’t think that was possible.
Doesn't matter, his appeals are going nowhere
If you want to be forgotten, then why are you doing this interview?
How weird is it that you have Drew Peterson, Scott Peterson and Michael Peterson. All convicted murderers of their wives.
Yup. My ex husband of 20 years is a Peterson. He is diagnosed narcissistic sociopath.
I think of that every time one of these
a$$’s comes up again. Isn’t that odd!?
I get confused
@@digitalsoldier3894 smart phycologist whose first name doesn’t trigger murder.
And Drew Peterson caught a famous Hail Mary.
Drew is pure evil. Thank god first his son stepping up and taking care of his kids 🙏🏽🤍
He agreed to an interview but he wants to be forgotten?!?!?!
Exactly. And he will continue to pop up in interviews just when he thinks he’s been forgotten…. which is ironic since that’s what he claims he wants. To be forgotten.
The man is a sociopath.
Yes, yet he seemed to love all the attention before he was arrested and finally convicted. This man is such a sociopath / psychopath / egotistical / selfish / delusional / misogynistic. The best place for him is in hell and hopefully he'll get there sooner rather than later.
For claiming to not know whether or not Stacey is dead, it's odd you speak of her in past tense, Peterson.
What a nasty being.
Stacy gave him cover for the murder of his first wife. Have little sympathy for her.
@tylerdurden7142 You’re implying she somehow deserved her fate?! She was 16 when she met Peterson. She was a child. He is a sociopath who took advantage of every woman in his life. Most of all, he continues to abuse the children from each of his marriages by continuing his charade of innocence.
It's very telling that he's contentedly associating with pedophiles in prison. That's a HUGE taboo in prison culture. He claims inmates don't ask each other about their crimes; that's a lie. He is consorting with the dregs of humanity, right where he belongs.
Cause he did it! He should have thought what his children would think before committing the crimes!
@@tylerdurden7142because she didn't believe her husband did it?...
@@tylerdurden7142you have little sympathy for a woman that was murdered?!
A true narcissist will never fess up they want the control all about the mind control it’s his trophy 🏆 creep
@Seanstricklandforprimemister What did he do to you
He is a full blown sociopath with typical narcissistic behaviors included in his personality.
Beware. He is a demon. He will never admit wrong doing. He is still a narcissist, always a narcissist.
Still seeking the limelight by giving this interview
OMG Ashley! This was an amazing interview! I loved your questions. You were definitely prepared for his manipulation. You caught him off guard at first! Great Job!!!
And she manipulated first
She did a great job, especially considering he’ll never admit the truth. He believes he might possibly get out of there, i think. Obviously being honest is a way of confronting the wrongs weve done and moving forward a better person for it. You cant forgive yourself when youre still pretending you arent the monster that killed your wives. Ashley Banfield got about as close to a confession as anyone ever will with that little slip up. Drew Peterson could be let go again and if theres a woman out there foolish enough to marry this man, hed likely kill again…..and say she drowned in the bathtub, or commited suicide, or shes still alive out there somewhere. I think she could present him with a video of him killing his wife and he would be ready with an excuse or denial.
She is not. She is annoying and coo coo
Are you serious???? She came off as nothing but a fucking fly buzzing in the room.
She’s pandering to his conscience and she should know he doesn’t have one.
I am shocked you got this interview. Drew was always a narcissist and he has not changed. He was not helpful when his wives bodies were being exhumed. He thought he would get away with it. So happy he is where he should be.
I think you're 100% lindsaybay and I'm all too happy to forget about this guy..... Zero supply is the worst punishment you can give to a narcissist.
@@barrybjerke9353 lol yep
I remember when everyone was out looking for Stacey when she disappeared he did want to help out at all
Drew made one truthful comment in this interview - his last line: "I know what happened." Yes - he absolutely does. POS.
And put his finger as to shhhh when saying “I didn’t want to hear that” in regards to Kathleen.. like to silence her, which he did. Rot in hell Drew Peterson you pos
I’m reading the comments here and can’t believe people aren’t focused on Ashley’s ‘Gotcha Moment’ with this POS. She straight up pinned him against the wall.
If only he wasn’t a psychopath and would give Stacy’s family and his own children the location of her body.
Not only did she ask the tough question, she didn't let him get away with answer.
I rewound it and recorded it. That was damn good journalism!
Oh I'm totally focused on it Banfield is the best
He only cares about himself and he wants to be in control, even though he's behind bars for life with no possibility of parole. So, retaining information like that is the only shred of control and 'power' he has left. He'll never give up the information about what he did to Stacy and where / how he disposed of her body. The man is pure evil.
I wasn't there, but I always believed that he did it. This interview has made me believe I have been right all along.
all tthe evidence is there. The blue garbage can w her body
Ashley Great Job you had this guys jugular in your hand and twisted. Way to go he was close to spilling his guts. You are a great journalist and human. Bravo!!! ❤❤
No he wasn't he will never spill shit
She got nowhere with him.
This guy is evil personified - his quiet, manipulative tones send chills through my bones. He's a monster and frankly, I'm surprized prison justice hasnt taken care of him, given he's an ex-cop.
But you claim Stacy simply ran away with another man, and yet you said she was killed. And no we can’t manipulate what you actually say. This man thinks he’s smarter than all of us and he’ll never admit what he did.
He just said that wife murdered and one missing, tada
His children cant be that dumb. They KNOW hes guilty!!
Drew Peterson is aging exponentially.
He’s aging in dog years for real
Aren't we all though?
Yes, probably because of all the putrid evil inside him.
He told on himself a couple times. The part where he says what if you go out and kill your husband then say you don't do it..... That is telling. If he didn't do it he would have said If someone else killed your husband and you said you didn't do it. He didn't think before he spoke.
Absolutely right.
I'm shocked more people didn't catch that. I was also shocked he actually said it! Twice! In the beginning I thought his answer was definitely going to be "because it's not true, I didn't do it". But instead says it's because he doesn't want his kids to know! And then the ..."say YOU KILLED your husband..." WTF!!! He did it for sure. I wasn't really sure until I heard it from him not once but twice! Wowwwww
He has evil eyes. He did every thing they say he did
Ashley is badass! She had him admitting things in the first two minutes! Kudos! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
He’s got the psychopathic stare.
That’s why he is in jail …period..and he belongs there.
@@Seanstricklandforprimemister duh
This criminal will never tell the truth.
What else has he done? He just said he is afraid of more charges if he stays in the limelight!
He was also charged with trying to have a judge killed
He’s guilty AF!!
I lived in Naperville right next to Bolingbrook during all of his antics. He was a clown in front of cameras daily. He's a former undercover cop trained to lie because his life depended on it. The only thing that changed with him is he's an old and tired liar now and knows that no one is listening to him anymore. Most people don't enjoy seeing a police officer in jail unless he's guilty of doing something that puts him there. He got away with a lot throughout his life. So why not think that you should be able to do that forever.
I used to live in Naperville. I went to Naperville North. GO HUSKIES!
I lived out there too. And that ham sandwich would go out to bars during the search’s for Stacy, making sure everyone knew he was there. He would ask people if they wanted pictures with him.
He is complete evil.
@@staceofbase7969 oh wow! That’s just as evil as it gets. The appearance of helping when you know the truth.
Beer and brats,,da bears,,ahh Hozier
I grew up in Aurora and my mom knew Stacy. My mom always came back and said Drew was charming. But always had this "dark cloud" around him. Couldnt put her finger on it. Then when Stacy went missing, she had an idea it could've been him. I was roughly around 19 and so I was always the one that was like hold up lets hear him out. But after a while and seeing how he was in front of cameras because I remember this being on TV left and right. I was always under the impression he did it. With him being a police officer, you know where to bury the bodies. Nonetheless great interview!!
This guy is exactly as I remember him. Almost worse.
Ashleigh, there is no other out there better than you...
You were put here to do exactly what you are doing. I have been in true crime for years. How I didn't find you before two months ago is crazy, but I'm so glad I did. If you weren't a lawyer at some point, you should have been. Keep doing your thing! You are currently putting out the best content and coverage. News Nation hit the jackpot!
Drew, tell us where Stacey is damnit!
Absolutely no manipulation from Ashley at all, he walked straight into it right there at the very beginning of the interview. Horrible liar, horrible man, disgusting to think he murdered these women and still pleads innocence.
He’s so sick, his older son said he knows his father killed both women. His lawyer knows the truth but can’t talk about it until Drew dies.
What his lawyer doesnt realize is that his ethical duties to his clients don’t end when the client dies
I know Stephen believes his dad did it, what is your source about Eric? (the oldest son)
Are you referring to the son Stephen who was fired by a Police Department? If you Google 'Court upholds firing of Drew Peterson’s son' it says 'obstructed the investigation into the disappearance of his father’s fourth wife, Stacy, by hiding his father’s guns'
That guy is full of BS higher than Mount Everest 😂
😂
🤣
😂😂😂
DP needs to be called DB! Ashley idk how you were able to be so professional, I lost it the second he opened his mouth. Great job and thank you for being so brave!!!❤
I love your work!! Great interview !!!
Dang, jail has not been good to this monster (thankfully).
I would like you to interview Drew's wives parents or siblings to see if they think he's guilty.
Jurors
His wives were killed by him
And the families believe he’s guilty
Josh gondelman
Drew: "I want to be forgotten".
Hey Drew, do you want to be interviewed by a major News TV Journalist ?
Drew: "Sure why not"
The way he talks is eerily similar to the Iceman.
king parsons
I dont see that at all
Why did he bother giving an interview? Why did I bother watching?
@@Seanstricklandforprimemister Not confused. But since I asked...
@@elizabethsmith7343 bc he gets money. bc u wanna see what a pos looks like
i thought the same thing about watching.. paused after 5min, scrolled to the comments cause i couldnt listen to him any longer. Not going back to watch
Imagine all he did as a cop that he got away with…
Ashleigh is a mix. She's focused, quick, and knows how to keep the conversation on point while interviewing. She's also arrogant/self righteous which clouds her insight when interviewing. She's asking tough questions which is great, but goes way beyond that, strongly inserting her own views. She goes scorched earth with her narrative, when the focus should be hearing what he has to say and deciding ourselves what to make of it.
Ashley was the right person to do this interview. She’s sassy and will challenge him to the end lol
Why would we expect anything other than denial? Quit giving this monster your time. Ashley did a great interview.
He is cold, and I give you props Ashleigh because that dude makes me unervey and i'm watching all the way from England.
He’s just gross, everything about him. Yuck.
You did a great job Ashleigh, I don't know why some people on here are so hateful. Maybe THEY are narcissists like Drew too. I appreciate what you do for this news source. Walk tall.
@Seanstricklandforprimemister No, maybe just those cutting her down, insulting her, and think they are so much better they could do a better job than she does. I said SOME people on here, not ALL people on here. I think you have reading comprehension problems.
@Seanstricklandforprimemister
Not everyone! Many are abused by these monsters 👺
It is like listening to Casey Anthony that she is innocent,,,,,,,, (but unfortunately not charged with her daughter s death)
Charged not convicted
So, the downside of telling the truth is that his kids know he murdered their mothers. Amazing.
Why waste time talking to these psychos? They are never going to say anything worthwhile. It just dredges up more pain for the families...
I would think that an innocent person in prison would make proving they are innocent their top priority. His was putting out a hit on the Prosecutor.
Where is Staci?
Resting in peace
@@gmoneyApexTrader8 she's not resting in peace until they find her remains.
@@joanna7350
Remains have been found in an Illinois canal by Stacy’s sister, Cassandra Cales.
A dive team has volunteered time and resources to locate and secure those remains for forensic analysis.
I thought exactly what you sais before you even said it, Ashleigh. That was definitely a confession. His haughtiness makes me sick. Drew Peterson is the devil’s spawn.
I’m glad their children are with decent people and safe now.
This is such a chilling interview. That guy is so evil!
I didn’t realize how much he didn’t have any real feelings. He is definitely a sociopath
@@MichaelSmith-uy4ui
I think he's a psychopath.
Put him on the mainline. He can tell his jokes there. Him even being a friend with a predator is a sign of the type of guy he is.
Incidentally, for those of you who are not from the Chicago area and want to know what a Chicago accent sounds like, this guy has it in spades. He’s almost a caricature of a Chicago accent.
Sounds like a confession to me!!
Good interview by Ashleigh. I watch her show daily.
Great interview, Ashleigh!
The interviewer caught him out straight away
he shut down...she came at him a little aggressive ;)
She did if she worked her female magic she would of got a lot farther
She did fine. This guy will never admit what he did, regardless of the approach from a news journalist. In the short amount of time she exposed him using her heavy handed accusations to anyone who's paying attention. This is a news interview with press, not a police interrogation with a seasoned detective who usually take hours/days of mental/physical exhaustion to get the suspect to slip up.
I agree. Drew IS SCUM....but she came at the interview all wrong in my opinion. He's not gonna open up when you do that. At this point, we all know he's guilty. All that's to gain by this interview case study of a psychopath and they do recognize when being attacked--they shut down. Lost opportunity for those tuning in that are fascinated by psychology case studies. Interview was wrecked. He's a convicted man. He's knows that. If you interview him that should have been accepted as fact.
This guy is a monster. I lived in this area at the time this all took place.
Guilty as hell!!!!
Holy F still throwing the cop thing out there this is gold 👌 one of the sickest murderer in a long time...thx for letting us see you DREW you came out loud and clear!
I know, he’s such a victim, poor coppers. Being picked on cause “everybody loves to see” cops fall down. 🤨🙄
Great Job Ashleigh. You caught him in a lie right off the cuff.
This man is Scary, glad he's behind bars
So, Drew, you're OK with Stacey's kids believing their mother just abandoned them like you said?
Of course he is okay with it. No narcissist is the bad guy. He’s the true victim here. 🤥
I can't imagine sitting across from this guy. Very brave.
Evilness pure evil! Good job Banfield!!!! ❤
She's interviewing the devil.
Hey , Drew Peterson where is Rachel Melon ? You were the lead investigator on her case when she went missing right before you were let go from Bolingbrook PD? Did you help her stepfather in hiding her or did you make evidence disappear? That little girl needs justice.
She lived in the next town over from me growing up .
I remember that case. She was sick and stayed home from school. Then she was gone!!! So sad
@@GrannieLee Yes , my mom was friends with her mother. From day one the stepfather has always been suspicious. Rachel even wrote in her diary the uncomfortable things that were happening at home. To me I feel it's kind of suspicious that Drew Peterson was the lead investigator on this case then not long after Stacy went missing and he was being investigated into the death of his wife. Maybe one day justice will come for both Rachel and Stacy.
@@carmen_sandiago yes...So sad. That is suspicious that he was the lead investigator at that time. I didn't know that. God bless Rachel.
I had never heard of this case until now… How in the hell is that stepfather’s still living free?
I wonder why he agreed to this interview.
He makes me sick he killed his wife stacy
She is not manipulating anything your answer was loud and clear!
Drew was such arrogant, wicked, evildoer. YOU hurt your children by taking their mother away . Thats hurt.
His a monster & narcissist why even bother talking with this nobody playing still that his the victim completely evil ‼️‼️
Narcissistic or not, he’s innocent.
@@DeepDishPizzasure. So is oj. 🙄
@@bcatblues725 OJ wasn’t convicted of it therefore he is innocent.
@@DeepDishPizza
Y do you think that he is innocent?
@@Trobtwillis I don’t think. I know.
He just admitted that he does not have friends who killed their wife and one is missing, basically he just confessed,
how
You did a great job, fantastic interview
This guy was a cop. Unbelievable.
He is such a jerk!!
She's amazing, bravo!
ehhhhhh....is she really?
@@alexlindsey6446
I like her.
😍💭
Good, pretty, and smart.
❤
He absolutely hated it when she said she can guarantee him she would not marry him. His face turned red and he had this look like it was the worse gut punch he ever had.
This guy is nuts!
He is the worst. Total psychopath.
The narcissist speaks his native language when he lies
Too late. Your oldest son finally sees that you did it.
Is there anyway to get the full interview raw unedited?
Drew’s lawyer said when he dies he will tell where Stacey is! He’s an arrogant despicable human being! His children already know what he did! To both mothers!
I think that this Attorney - Client privilege stuff goes too far. There's no reason for her location to be a secret. Call me a fool if you will, but that's how I feel. Criminals have too many rights.
What a horrible interviewer.
We like to see CORRUPT police officers get caught Drew.
His children know he's guilty, but they don't confront him about the truth. He's guilty of it and will never admit it. 🇦🇺😊
Hes so creepy
Wow. He certainly has slowed down.
If he doesn't want the limelight and wants to be forgotten, then why do this interview.
The worst part is he became like a bit of a celebrity by a lot of people that were local to him. I was out in the Bolingbrook/Naperville before he was officially arrested but while the case against him was very public and people (mostly women) were going up to him and asking if they could have their picture taken with him and some guys were shaking his hand ….it was literally the weirdest/most disturbing thing I think I’ve ever seen and you could see the arrogance/cockiness of Drew and how he absolutely loved the attention. I guarantee he thought he was going to get away with it
