peterson went fishing 20 years
ago, peterson was convicted of
murdering his wife laci and
their unborn son, connor. laci
and connor's bodies were found
in the san francisco bay in
april of 2003, but uc davis
forensics expert ashley hall

make a difference in the case,

revive a theory that burglars
killed laci, the technology, the

and analyze evidence has not
changed enough since 2019 that
these samples warrant retesting

agrees to the retesting, it
could open the floodgates for
similar appeals in other cases,
and the prosecution argues there
is no need for dna evidence
because other evidence convict
peterson live in redwood city.
