Scott Peterson's Appeal
It is hard to imagine that there is anyone out there who doesn’t know the name Scott Peterson, the man convicted in 2004 of the murder of his young wife who at the time was 8 months pregnant with their child they had named Connor.
Peterson was initially sentenced to death, but in 2020 that sentence was overturned and
commuted to life without the possibility of parole. Most thought that this was the end of this tragic tale. Not quite. In January of this year (2024), Peterson’s attorneys, with the help of the Innocence Project of L.A., filed yet another
appeal trying to get him a new trial.
In 2020, Murder Most Foul covered the case with the help of Stanley Goldman: attorney,
professor and, at the time of the of the trial in 2004, a legal analyst for FOX NEWS. Mr. Goldman spent many hours inside the courtroom and had unique access to both the lead prosecutor and Peterson’s lead defense attorney, Mark Geragos. Afterall, they had both been students of his.
Mr. Goldman was gracious enough to come back and discuss this new twist in the case.
As a primer on the case, we begin with a replay of that 2020 interview entitled: “Laci’s Missing.”
