BOLINGBROOK -- First, he got his cars back. Now, Drew Peterson has reclaimed his computers. Drew Peterson's guns, however, remain out of his grasp.

Peterson picked up his four computers Tuesday from the District 5 state police headquarters. They had been seized, along with his two vehicles and 11 firearms, by state police as potential evidence in the investigation of his wife's disappearance.

The wife, 23-year-old Stacy Peterson, vanished Oct. 23. The state police have classified the case a "potential homicide" and named her husband as their only suspect.

Peterson triumphed in his court bid to regain possession of the confiscated property. But the state's attorney's office pulled an end-around to keep him from getting his guns back by convincing the state police to revoke his Firearm Owner's Identification Card.

Peterson's attorney, Joel Brodsky, appealed the decision and said he is still working to get his client's gun card back. "I should be hearing from the Illinois state police any day now," Brodsky said, maintaining they had no grounds to pull Peterson's FOID. "The guy had a gun card since he was 17 years old," Brodsky said. "He never had an incident."

Brodsky also took a jab at Roy Taylor, the son of Stacy's best friend and next-door neighbor Sharon Bychowski, and the leader of the volunteer search effort to find the missing mom.
Brodsky accused Taylor of "drawing a salary" for his work as a volunteer "search coordinator." He said he was told the money was coming out of funds raised to subsidize the searches.

Taylor denied that he has been paid to spearhead the search effort and claimed he has been shelling out his own cash for the cause. "I'm insulted by his comments," he said. "Roy Taylor is not receiving a dime," Taylor said. "Roy Taylor has spent thousands of dollars out of his pocket to make sure this gets done."

I'd be insulted too, but it creeps me out when a person refers to themselves in the third person.
