In 2004, Scott Peterson was convicted in the deaths of his wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn child, facing a death sentence that later became life in prison without parole in a reversal by the California Supreme Court "after finding that jurors were erroneously dismissed, partly because they expressed objections to the death penalty on a questionnaire," per CNN's reporting.
Currently serving his sentence at the Mule Creek State Prison in Ione, California, his case is being taken on by The Los Angeles Innocence Project, which provides pro bono investigatory services and legal representation to people who were convicted of crimes they did not commit, in an effort to examine the possibility of a wrongful conviction.
