Scott Peterson Appeals Death Penalty Sentence to Supreme Court
Scott Peterson has appealed the death penalty sentence he received from the state of California for his involvement in the murder of Laci Peterson and her unborn child Connor.
Attorneys for Peterson filed a 423-page legal document with the California Supreme Court claiming Peterson is innocent and had nothing to do with the murders, which prompted federal and state Unborn Victims laws that provide greater protection and justice for pregnant women and their unborn children who are attacked or killed outside the context of abortion.
