TL;DR Summary

The Los Angeles Innocence Project has taken up the case of Scott Peterson, who was sentenced to death for the murder of his pregnant wife 21 years ago. The project argues that new evidence supports Peterson's claim of innocence and raises questions about who abducted and killed his wife. Peterson has maintained his innocence and claimed he received an unfair trial. The case, which gripped America, involved Peterson's wife, Laci Peterson, who went missing in 2002. Despite the California supreme court overturning his death sentence in 2020, Peterson was resentenced to life without parole. The project is seeking evidence from the trial that was not provided to the defense at the time.
