Retired Police Officer Believed To Have Used Police Resources To Spy On Missing Wife

Bolingbrook, IL (AHN) - Recent reports might prove that Drew Peterson, the 53 year old retired police officer, suspected in the mysterious disappearance of his wife, had used police resources to spy out information about his wife's family and friends.

He is believed to have accessed confidential background information on these people, saved in police records.

Bolingbrook Police Pension Board attorney Richard reamer told NBC News that such behaviour is called 'official misconduct' and can be used to revoke his retirement benefits, including $6000 monthly pension.

Meanwhile, Peterson was served with another search warrant late Tuesday. The warrant deals with two items seized from the two vehicles that the police had taken in custody.

The police refused to elaborate on the search warrant, reports The Associated Press.

Peterson is the main suspect in his fourth wife's mysterious disappearance.

Stacy Peterson, 23, went missing on October 17. Peterson had said that she had eloped with another man. The police, however, suspect murder.
