News about Scott Peterson

On Tuesday's episode of Vanderpump Rules on Bravo, Tom Sandoval said he felt like he was being treated like 'f***ing Scott Peterson' over his affair with Raquel Leviss. The 41-year-old reality star after weeping over Rachel Leviss, 29, being out of his body, disagreed with Tom Schwartz, 41, who said he felt as if Sandoval was at the 'tail end' of the fallout from his marriage, dubbed Scandoval. Sandoval replied, 'Dude, no, that's not even remotely accurate.'

The Los Angeles Innocence Project's attorneys requested that a judge order new DNA tests be ordered and that investigators be allowed access to evidence connected to a break away from the couple's California home. After a jury found Peterson guilty of murder in the deaths of Laci and the unborn child, they planned to call Conner. Laci was killed and dumped her body in San Francisco Bay on Christmas Eve 2002, according to investigators. The death sentence was later reversed, and he was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.

Bryan Spitulski, a former investigator from Modesto's Fire Department, said he investigated a burnedt-van with blood stains on it near the Petersons Modesto home.

Peterson's staff first contacted the group, which is separate from the more lauded Innocence Project. Peterson's attorneys haven't officially discussed the case nor argued for it's absolute innocence. According to a spokesman for DailyMail.com, 'The Los Angeles Innocence Project (LAIP) represents Scott Peterson and is investigating his allegations of genuine innocence.' At this moment, there is no further information available.'

Scott Peterson (right) is now serving life without parole for his wife Laci (together) and their unborn child Conner in 2002. However, the LA Innocence Project is now looking at his case, following allegations that juror Richelle Nice (inset) was biased at his trial. Peterson has tried to claim that misconduct by a juror indicates that his conviction should be dismissed. In April 2003, Laci and her unborn baby were discovered dead on the San Francisco shoreline, months after disappearing on Christmas Eve.

Kristin Smart was a student in San Luis Obispo, California, when she vanished in 1996. Paul Flores, a woman found guilty of her murder, was sentenced to 25 years in jail on Friday. Judge Jennifer O'Keefe told him, 'You have been a cancer to society.' You have been living in the community for 25 years, and have continued to use opioids and assault women. The case had been unsolved for decades, but a 2020 true crime podcast jolted local police.

Smart and Flores were both undergraduates at California Polytech University in San Luis Obispo when she vanished in 1996. Flores, who have since been arrested as a result, were arrested as a result. Although police have never found her remains, Flores say they assaulted her in his dorm room and then murdered her. Both he and his father, Ruben, were charged with her murder. Ruben allegedly helped his son by securing Kristen's body under their backyard deck for years, according to investigators.

Scott Peterson was refused a new trial and is expected to remain jailed. Peterson was found guilty of murdering his wife and his unborn child. He was sentenced to life in prison but later learned that a biased juror had compromised his conviction. The juror in question was not guilty of wrongdoing out of sheer emotion brought on by the hearings, according to Judge Anne-Christine Massullo.

As the now 50-year-old man serves a life term for murdering his wife and an unborn child more than two decades ago, a California judge has temporarily suspended Scott Peterson's retrial appeal. Peterson received his life term in a state prison in California. In a Dec. 9 court filing, Judge Anne-Christine Massullo scheduled the court date for the "limited purpose of addressing a recently reported problem regarding admitted exhibits."

In a case that stunned the world, Peterson killed Laci Peterson, 27, and their unborn son, Conner, on Christmas Eve 2002. He was released from death row at San Quentin State Prison, north of San Francisco, last week, after California's Supreme Court overturned the sentence in August 2020. Peterson's latest mugshot of him, showing him with a short salt-and-pepper beard compared to his previous clean-shaven appearance. Peterson, 50, was taken to Mule Creek State Prison, east of Sacramento, which is home to'sensitive needs yards' that are designed to house prisoners of 'high notoriety.' His death sentence was reversed after a California high court found that prospective jurors were wrongly dismissed for saying they opposed the death penalty but were likely to follow the rule and enforce it. Peterson did not get a fair trial because the trial judge made "clear and significant mistakes" in jury selection, ensuring that he did not receive a fair hearing.
