The Case Reopened, Scott Peterson's Fight for a New Trial
Mar 19, 03:00 PM
In a thought-provoking episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis discusses the ongoing efforts to investigate Scott Peterson's claim of wrongful conviction, spearheaded by the LA Innocence Project. The conversation sheds light on the potential impact of newly surfaced evidence, including a blood-stained mattress and a burnt-out van, as well as the challenges ahead in seeking a new trial. Key discussion points include:
- The LA Innocence Project's involvement has brought attention to the case, yet Faddis cautions against premature conclusions without thorough testing of the new evidence.
- The significance of the new evidence, including a mattress and a van potentially linked to Lacey Peterson's murder, hinges on forensic testing to establish any direct connection.
- Technological advancements in DNA testing could play a crucial role in reevaluating the evidence, offering tools not available during the original trial.
- The criteria for a new trial require presenting new evidence that could reasonably lead to a different verdict, a high bar for the defense to meet.
- Speculation on defense strategies, including challenging the alleged confession and exploiting procedural irregularities, to cast doubt on Peterson's guilt.
