Scott Peterson is once again seeking to be released from prison.
Peterson has filed a new appeal in his 2004 murder conviction, claiming there's evidence that proves his innocence.
Unique Sign-up Bonus is One of the Best We’ve Seen The Motley Fool | Sponsored In the appeal he lays out six claims that he and his family believe will exonerate him.
It includes what they say is new evidence about a burglary across the street from the Peterson's home around the time his wife Laci vanished.
An exclusive photo of Peterson shows him talking to his family during a video call from the San Quentin State Prison last year.
Officials said he is sitting in a concrete cell in the photo with a virtual backdrop behind him.
His lawyer was awful.
When I come home and find my wife missing I put my clothes in the washer and take a shower ...
“Hell, his own testimony put him at the scene where the body was found, many miles from his home.”
True. But those statements were made at the outset of the case when Laci went missing.
Right at the start Peterson told the Modesto PD that he had been fishing at Emeryville in his small boat. They refused to believe him saying that no one would use such a small boat on the SF Bay. So they made a big show of searching orchards, canals, reservoirs, and etc.
When the Emeryville PD went to search the bay the Modesto PD asked them to stop because it was a distraction.
Then when the two bodies washed ashore in Emeryville the Modesto PD were all, “AH_HA!!! WE KNEW IT ALL ALONG!” and pretended that their previous assertions had never existed.
Some people forgot all of that but I did not.
“for a woman you sure don’t like other women. But that’s good to know.”
I don’t much like other women. It’s true. Most of them are shallow, self-absorbed, gossipy, vengeful, vindictive, hateful towards their husbands, resentful of their children, and they run liberal.
A minority are wonderful people.
“When I come home and find my wife missing I put my clothes in the washer and take a shower”
And why not? Why would you assume that she was in danger when she could have simply been out of the house for some reason?
Besides, in California at the time you couldn’t even call the police on a missing CHILD until the child was missing more than 24 hours.
“His lawyer was awful.”
Agreed. The lawyer should have called for a mistrial when the one juror started showing up in her Star Trek uniform every day.
I didn’t even hear about that.
“And why not?”
Because I don’t have to wah away the evidence.
“Agreed. The lawyer should have called for a mistrial when the one juror started showing up in her Star Trek uniform every day.”
Wrong trial.
Are you confusing this Scott with the other Scott Peterson, the one who was an LEO? I only know of Laci and the baby as this one’s victims.
According to the jury, he did. Jeffrey McDonald has spent many years with numerous opportunities to profess he didn’t do it.
Thing is, he did it. And so did Scott.
Of course Lacy and their unborn son is all but forgotten. But ole Scott? He is innocent.

“I didn’t even hear about that.”
It didn’t happen.
I owned the house across the street from the Petersons at that time. The street looked like a carnival of TV trucks. There wasn’t a soul I know that thought Scott was innocent. Sleepy Modesto turned into a crazy place during that period and the Condit aid disappearance.
The fact that a body washes up in a particular place does not mean it was put in the water there, especially if a lot of time has passed, which seems to be the situation in this case (about which I know very little).
So, his wife went missing at the end of December, and the body washed up in April. A body can travel a long way in the currents in that amount of time.
Not saying anything about his guilt, just that his saying that when she went missing he was at the place where 3 or 4 months later her body washed up does not indicate anything at all.

So he was fishing, came home and found his pregnant wife was not there, and put his clothes in the washing machine.
Under other circumstances, he would have been praised for being considerate to his wife!
I am a female. I will jump in and condemn any female who is lying about any man for the sake of revenge against him.
In this case, this guy is where he belongs. just because he is good looking does not make him innocent. Same goes with any woman who would do the same to a man.
“A body can travel a long way in the currents in that amount of time.”
Not when it is weighed down by concrete anchors.
for a woman you sure don’t like other women. But that’s good to know.
From my experience being married to a woman for 18 years (before her death) and having 3 daughters (now 18, 19 and 21), most women don’t like other women.
he’s fat and bloated and was never that good looking to me.
i can tell.
