Retired sgt. returns to stand in Peterson hearing

Patrick Collins investigation concluded that Savio's 2004 death was an accident. A follow-up investigation determined she was murdered.
Collins testified for several hours Friday about his investigation. He's expected to be cross examined Monday.
Friday was the third day of the hearing and both sides went after Collins.
The prosecution tried to show how Collins and his investigators could have gathered evidence linking Peterson to Savio's death.
In the meantime, the defense was trying to convince the judge that the investigation was so botched that Savio's killer may never be identified.
Collins left the courthouse with little to say after spending the day detailing why the 2004 death of Peterson's third wife was ruled accidental and not a homicide.
"He's a police officer, 26 years on the force. He knows what blood spatter is, he knows what DNA is, he knows what trace evidence is," said Andrew Abood, Peterson's attorney.
