HATED Scott Peterson was convicted of the horrific 2002 murder of his pregnant wife, Laci, and their unborn son, Connor, but now a team of lawyers claim the cheating, former fertilizer salesman was framed by lawmen desperate to win fame by cracking the Christmas Eve abduction mystery!
In a stunning move, the Los Angeles Innocence Project (IP) — which provides free legal services to exonerate the wrongly convicted — has taken on the 51-year-old’s case, saying Peterson’s “claim of actual innocence is supported by newly discovered evidence,” his constitutional rights were violated and he appears to be the victim of jury misconduct!
The organization believes shocking new DNA evidence and a never-used jailhouse conversation may prove Laci and her unborn child were the helpless victims of kill-crazy burglars, who were raiding her neighborhood at the time of the tragedy.
“Scott was railroaded by people looking to make names for themselves because he was an easy suspect and was universally loathed by the general public,” insists a source familiar with the case.
While Peterson’s supporters say they’re encouraged by the turn of events, the Modesto District Attorney’s Office has downplayed the development, insisting much of the evidence uncovered by the Innocence group has already been heard — and Peterson’s conviction was upheld in 2022.
