CAGED wife and baby killer Scott Peterson is claiming he’ll reveal explosive new proof identifying the real butchers of his family if he’s granted a retrial for his 2004 murder conviction.
Although he’s won a new trial over his prison sentence, legal eagles for the former fertilizer salesman want to put the entire case before a jury again, arguing they have bombshell new evidence, witnesses — and even names of the real killers — that will exonerate the 48-year-old who was sent to California’s death row in 2005.
“Scott is sitting in a cell and he’s innocent,” insists his lawyer Pat Harris. “From the moment I met him, he was always telling the exact same story.
“It never, ever changed, it never contradicted. It was amazing because every client I’ve ever had, you can almost always pick up contradictions in their stories.”
Even now, Peterson is “confessing all” to other inmates, insisting he’s an innocent man framed by cops bowing to public pressure, sources say.
