*Re-Sentencing Hearing (Stanislaus & San Mateo County) (@ 10am PT) – CA – Laci Denise Peterson (27) & Connor (unborn) (missing Dec. 24, 2002, Modesto; found April 13, 2003 in the San Francisco Bay) - *Scott Lee Peterson (30 @ time of crime/now 47) convicted & found guilty (11/12/04) of 1st degree murder (Laci) & 2nd degree murder(son) & sentenced (3/16/05) to the death penalty.
He was found guilty on 11/12/04 of the 1st degree murder of his pregnant wife, Laci, & the 2nd degree murder of their unborn son, Connor, & in 2005, he was sentenced to death by lethal injection. His case is currently on automatic appeal to the Supreme Court of California. Sits on San Quentin's death row. Calif. Supreme Court denied a new trial in the guilt phase but reversed the death penalty sentence for Stanislaus County. Also the San Mateo Superior Court will now consider whether there was jury misconduct. Stanislaus County district attorney’s office said it won’t seek the death penalty if there is a new trial.
Re-Sentencing Hearing on 12/8/21. Peterson was moved to San Mateo County jail on 11/29/21 for sentencing hearing.
Court info from 5/14/20 thru 10/20/21 reference post #226 here:
CA - District Attorney to retry Scott Peterson's Penalty Phase in Laci Peterson case, 2021 *Guilty*
11/10/21 Update: On Wednesday, Peterson appeared via a live video feed from San Quentin while Stanislaus County District Attorney Birgit Fladager, defense attorney Pat Harris & Superior Court Judge Anne-Christine Massullo sparred over who will be allowed inside the courtroom when Peterson is re-sentenced to life in prison without possibility of parole. Judge Massullo said, “I have to follow the rules of this courtroom. That’s six feet of distance & masks. That leaves very few options for the court.” The judge said she plans to have 16 seats for Laci’s supporters, 6 seats for Peterson’s supporters & the remaining 15 seats for the public & media combined. A lottery system will be used to decide who sits in those 15 seats. In addition to preparing for the sentencing hearing, on Wednesday Judge Massullo set a date for an evidentiary hearing as part of Peterson’s battle for a whole new murder trial. The evidentiary hearing will begin on 1/25/22 & end on 3/4/22. There will be about 5 hours of testimony each day. Nice will be called to the witness stand as the primary witness. Legal experts said Nice pleading the fifth will help strengthen Peterson’s case. Media cameras will not be allowed in the courtroom for the evidentiary hearing, the judge said. Peterson’s next court date is set for 11/17/21 at 10am so that the judge can review Peterson’s probation report from San Quentin State Prison. He will likely be transferred to the San Mateo County Jail within the next couple weeks. The district attorney has made sure that Peterson will not be granted bail when he arrives as an inmate in Redwood City. Formal sentencing to life without the possibility of parole on 12/8/21.
11/17/21 Update: For new trial: Next evidentiary hearing will begin 1/25/22 & end on 3/4/22 about 5 hours each day for testimony. 11/29/21: Peterson has left death row in San Quentin & was moved to the San Mateo County Jail, officials confirm. He was transferred Monday morning ahead of his re-sentencing hearing next week. He will remain in Redwood City through March because of a second upcoming hearing that will determine if he gets a new murder trial. Peterson’s defense team is fighting for a retrial based on juror misconduct.

Currently, just going over COVID protocol and admonishment not to record this proceeding. Good luck with that - it's on YouTube.

 

[LauraAnne]

What is all this about? The plaintiff is going back over evidence that led to conviction, that was presented at trial in the first place.

so he is staying at the county jail till his hearing next year for a new trial

 

[Tink56]

Ugh! Another defense attorney citing "the wonderful family" connected to the defendant.....If anyone believes that a "great" family ensures a great offspring, that individual would be making the same type of insinuation the defense counsel mentions as unfair.

So sad for Lacy's family....IMO...MOO

 

[Tink56]

so he is staying at the county jail till his hearing next year for a new trial

Yes....so his attorneys will have access to him...per the judge. There was minor discussion to clarify the point.

Scott Peterson, convicted of killing pregnant wife Laci Peterson, resentenced to life in prison (nbcnews.com)

Laci Peterson, 27, was eight months pregnant with their son, Conner, when she was killed in December 2002.

Scott Peterson, who was convicted of killing his pregnant wife Laci Peterson and their unborn baby, was resentenced Wednesday to life in prison without the possibility of parole for her death in 2002.

A judge sentenced him to 15 years to life in prison for the death of the unborn baby, Conner. The sentences will run concurrently, the judge said.

Peterson, 49, spent more than 15 years on death row in California after being found guilty in the murders. His sentence was overturned last year by the state Supreme Court after it was determined that jurors who personally disagreed with the death penalty were dismissed, according to NBC affiliate KCRA-TV of Sacramento...
