I never quite figured out why there was never an outrage over five murders of wives by men named Peterson, in such a short period of time. After I wound up hearing a confession from Charles Donald Petersen and realized there was nothing I could even do about it, I decided to write this book, chronicling the events of all five murders. Maybe this will not help but I could not stand by and do nothing. Th is is a book with no ending as the saga continues. I hope someday Don is punished for the murder of his wife and he is taken out of society were people around him will be safe. I will never feel safe as long as I know that I am the only one who knows the true story about the night Mary Petersen was murdered. Now you know the truth about Mary's murder. Below, you can see photos of how Don Petersen lives. Pretty good for a man with no job and living on unemployment compensation. So much for his wife's insurance money being put in a trust for his kids.
