Scott Peterson was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison without parole after he was spared the death sentence over the deaths of his wife and unborn child in the early 2000s.
Peterson, 49, was convicted in 2004 for murdering his wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn child, Conner. Peterson was originally sentenced to death in the case, but the California Supreme Court in August 2020 reversed Peterson’s death sentence after they discovered that potential jurors were dismissed erroneously.
