19:54Now PlayingOn December 24, 2002, 27-year-old Laci Peterson disappeared, seemingly without a trace. The story of the missing woman from Modesto, California, who was eight months pregnant with her first child, captured the attention of the entire nation. Investigators were suspicious of her husband almost immediately. Scrutiny from both the media and public heightened after it was revealed that not only was Scott having an affair in the weeks before his wife went missing, but he continued that relationship in the days immediately following her disappearance. In April 2003, the bodies of Laci and her unborn son, Conner, were found in the San Francisco Bay, and days later, Scott was arrested. A jury ultimately found him guilty of both murders, but for over two decades, he maintained his innocence. The Los Angeles Innocence Project recently took on Scott's case. The group pushed for a new trial, claiming they had new evidence, but in April, a California judge rejected Peterson’s latest bid for freedom. Attorney and legal analyst Chris Pixley investigated the Los Angeles Innocence Project’s claims for the new documentary, “Scott Peterson: The New Evidence,” and joined “Forbes True Crime” to discuss what he found.
