Scott Peterson, who was convicted of murdering his wife and unborn child almost two decades ago, will now have his case taken up by the Los Angeles Innocence Project, according to an exclusive report from ABC News. Peterson pled not guilty, and his team maintained his innocence throughout his 2005 murder trial. In 2020, Peterson and his legal team claimed that he had received an unfair trial based on juror misconduct. While his death sentence was ultimately overturned, he was resentenced to life without parole.
