The LA Innocence Project Files Appeal for the Convicted Murderer, Husband of Laci Peterson, Right After the Release of the Netflix Documentary "American Nightmare": Is the LA Innocence Project Clout Chasing, or Is Scott Innocent?

On Christmas Eve 2002, Scott Peterson reported his wife, Laci Peterson, missing. She was 27 years old and eight months pregnant. In April 2023, Laci's body was discovered and a short time later, Scott Peterson was charged with her murder. Scott was convicted, and eventually sentenced to life in prison. Twenty plus years later, the Los Angeles Innocence Project filed an appeal on Peterson's behalf claiming factual innocence. They raise four specific points which they claim were not sufficiently investigated because they didn't support the police department's theory of the crime.
