In four calls played for the jury last week, Frey repeatedly asked Peterson why he told her, in early December, that he'd lost his wife and was preparing to spend his first Christmas alone, if Laci Peterson didn't disappear until Christmas Eve.
"There are many types of loss," Peterson replied.
"Uh-huh. And what kind of loss was that?" Frey asked.
"Sweetie, I can't tell you," he answered.
Peterson apologized repeatedly and insisted he would tell Frey everything when his wife was found.
