"Scott Peterson's Murder Conviction Challenged by Los Angeles Innocence Project"

The Los Angeles Innocence Project has taken on the case of Scott Peterson, who was convicted of murdering his pregnant wife, Laci Peterson, in 2002. Peterson, who has maintained his innocence, is seeking exoneration and to overturn his life sentence. His legal team has filed new court motions, including a request for DNA testing, and may focus on a burglary near the family's home around the time of Laci's disappearance. The organization's involvement marks a significant shift in Peterson's case, as it aims to investigate his claim of actual innocence and potentially uncover new evidence to support his defense.
