Scott Peterson became one of the most despised criminals ever after being convicted of the murder of his wife and unborn child. Just before Christmas in 2002, 27-year-old Lacie Peterson, who was 33 weeks pregnant with a boy they planned to name Conner, vanished. Less than a month after she vanished, both Lacie's and Conner's bodies were found after they washed ashore. It didn't take long for police to suspect Scott Peterson.
Jon Mike and Morf as they discuss Scott Peterson and the murders of Lacie and Conner Peterson. At first, the things that Scott told the police seemed to line up. Even Lacie's family was convinced he was innocent. But that changed when it emerged that Scott had multiple affairs during the marriage, the latest was with a woman named Amber Frey. Amber came forward to police with information that put Scott in a bad light. But, even with his conviction, there are some who do not believe he did it, or at least do not believe that there was enough evidence to convict.
