My humble opinion, this person should never get out of prision!😢
Agreed
100% facts
This is INSANE. I remember when she went missing... He is so fricking guilty that it is repulsive to claim anything else. I will NEVER EVER donate to the Innocence Project again.
Why not?? Can you State one single piece of evidence that proves Scott is guilty? Please just give me one example of evidence that proves Scott is guilty, ill wait
@@caliSmoke209oh dear you’re not listening
This was so sad 😢 and this case will never go away. How terrible for her family. Their little grandson 😢😢
Why didn't he just divorce her?
Why did he have to do it on Christmas eve? That was so cruel.
I think three reasons why he didn’t get a divorce.
1. He needed to remain ‘perfect’ in everyone’s eyes. He rather be a victim than a jerk by divorcing his pregnant wife.
2. He didn’t want to pay child support.
3. He didn’t think he’d get caught.
I always wondered if he had let things play out the way they should have and gave being a father a chance maybe he could have changed as a person, maybe even been a faithful husband. People can heal each other.
Very sad.
It will never go away because it was a botched investigation, it's not hard anybody can look at the court transcripts there's not one piece of evidence showing he is guilty, you have to be found guilty of evidence that is beyond reasonable a doubt. Not found guilty of hearsay circumstantial evidence
@@caliSmoke209so explain why none of his dozens of attorneys over the last 20 years have ever filed an insufficient evidence appeal.
What a waste of court time and taxpayer $$.
Megan love the news you cover and the passion for what you do. Matt you as well are a breath of fresh air to we the people so thank you.
CA criminal justice is fucked beyond comprehension.
The whole state has been screwed up for years
This is ludicrous !!
Narcissists never lose their slimy charm. Never fails to amaze me who they can manage to convince of total B.S.
His whole behaviour was alsways more than obvious and highly suspicious. Another sick person who did not consider divorce as a good solution for his situation but prefered murder. Unbelievable..
I live under an hour from where this happened in Modesto Ca. He better not get out!
What does your proximity have to do with anything?
@@petesaria-hf1xhbot
@@petesaria-hf1xhummm….familiar with the area and the case. I too am in the area and got day by day info while the search, trial and conviction happened. How bout you? That’s right, you probably just got the highlights.
wtf is wrong with California???!
First the Menendez brothers who did it and admit it!!
Now this…..wtf???
🤦♀️🤦♀️
Everyone is going to follow the Menendez model. Smh. Lots of time goes by, new generation watches biased documentaries. I’m all about giving things a second look, but there is a ton of circumstantial evidence to get around here. It’s a reach.
@@JoeBravesFan a ton? really? 🤣🤣
@ just a little haha
California continues to not surprise me.
Concerned about this. If he does, I hope the prosecution can put on an effective case, because I think he did it. Justice for Laci & Conner.
Amen.
Why they waste money on someone who lied about his wife being dead to amber fry that he is a widower is beyond me!! He is a pathological liar who had zero remorse then or now!!
He needs to rot in prison and stop letting him waste peoples time and money!!!
Same people who have been spending BILLIONS of taxpayers money on benefits for illegal immigrants.
Scott is guilty period 😅
journalism at is best ❤
He has no right to walk the streets! His wife and baby can’t!
He is SOOOOOOOOOO GUILTY! He’ll be convicted again! Just a waste of tax payer money! 🤬 He’s had his day in court and appeals. ENOUGH!!!
@@rhondapatterson1 I have watched many programs about this case. Scott was just plain stupid. I believe he didn’t do it. The evidence doesn’t exist only assumptions. The prosecutor got several things wrong which was proven in court. Scott is a schmuck but not a killer. Strawberry Shortcake and her male counterpart labeled him as guilty before the trial began!
@@bobbiehofer4924 sure 👌😂
FACTS!!! It is disgusting to waste any more money on Peterson. He was and clearly still is a malignant narcissist.
Guilty as sin. 💯💯💯
He is GUILTY! He should not get a new trial and should never be released!
Huge fan of Matt Murphy. He did a great job in the Rodney Arcala trial and I always like hearing him talk about cases. Very intelligent and eloquent, Cheers from Down Under Matt 🥂🦘
Scott is guiltier than OJ! He should be happy that he's no longer on death row!
🎯💯
Ha! Nobody is more guilty than OJ! Talk about a case with a ton of physical evidence….
He's the reason death row exists.
A lot of mental gymnastics have to happen to get around Scott being guilty.
1. Laci was described as wearing black pants and white top. Her body came up with tan pants. So, the kidnappers had her change from black to tan pants before they killed her?
2. Bodies came up where Scott placed himself. Maybe kidnappers heard the news report about Scott being at marina and decided that he seemed like a guy that would weigh a body down, so they rushed to the bay, while fighting their drug habit to make anchors, get a boat, and drop Laci in the bay. Maybe it wasn’t those robbers, Pearce and Todd, it was others who were part of the ring. People who were never considered until around 2022???
3. Laci and McKenzie were completely quiet while Laci was getting kidnapped and neighbors heard nothing. Crazy thing is Scott just left the house ten minutes or so before all this went down. Maybe he was further away than the cell phone towers say he was.
4. Scott forgets to unload the umbrellas in the morning at the warehouse and doesn’t notice them as he’s hooking his boat up to the truck. He forgets to unload them again when he returns to the warehouse after the trip. He just forgets.
5. The boat was a surprise for Ron, so that Scott, Ron, and Conner could enjoy fishing together someday. Scott had to buy the boat then even with hardly any money in his bank account and over 20k in credit card debt. If Scott’s intentions were true, it’ll be years before Conner is able to fish. I could see Scott buying Conner a baseball glove prematurely, but a boat, so he, Conner, and Ron could fish?? He drives 90 miles to ‘get that boat in the water’, because it’s imperative he try the boat out for his future fishing trips. He just happened to get this great idea for a gift for his step father in-law around the same time Sean Sibley threatens to tell Amber he’s married. Pure coincidence. He wasn’t worried Amber might be hurt and contact Laci, potentially shattering his image of ‘perfection’.
6. Scott lied to Amber about losing his wife and then it happens. Just bad luck. He didn’t think it would actually happen.
7. Scott whistles whew when Sharon calls saying they found an anchor in the bay and not Laci. He whistled because he was happy it wasn’t Laci, not because they didn’t find her.
8. He laughs when his mother called and left voicemail saying Laci was spotted in Washington and he should get on a plane, not because he thought his mother was stupid, but because he was overjoyed at the potential sighting.
9. Scott told Laci about Amber and somehow she was coping with it even while they were expecting a child and it was Christmas. After all, Laci knew about another affair he had years before. Laci was just going to put on a brave face because she didn’t want her family to dislike Scott. (This would actually be the most believable thing Scott ever claimed.)
10. Scott was in such shock he didn’t remember whether he was fishing or golfing that day. It had nothing to do with someone at the bay spotting him, or nobody at the golf club being able to confirm he was there. He was just in shock.
-It’s a ton to get around to think Scott is innocent. I could keep going.
This guy should run for governor of California
Is Scott Peterson one of the biggest sociopaths of all time?
Oui en effet, il est. 👍
They are all over the place. Not all of them actually do heinous things like Scott, but everyone knows someone that thinks the world revolves around them and who lies about everything.
No! All celebrities that you worship are
He's the exact opposite of a sociopath, a sociophile if you will.
Scott Peterson should rot in San Quentin prison
He's been at Mule Creek for a couple of years now.
Love you & your family Mrs Kelly ❤️🙏 XOXO
Let it be stated that I won’t forget. I live in Southern California and I remember this trial and the poor family ,especially the Mother of Lacey, and what they had to endure. And while we’re at it, I remember Charlie Manson and the murder of Sharon, Tate and Company and the La Bianca‘s. I happen to be in the Hollywood Hills that night that they were murdered and believe me I WILL NOT forget these trials and the persons involved in them!
Ditto.
Hold it California is gone it's Galifornia now
@@markcoleman-z9dMexifornia as well.
Matt Murphy great attorney
He was awesome in the Hawks case
Exactly!
And Rodney Arcala
And in the Wozniak case.
His book "The Murder Book" is an excellent, page-turning read. He explains murder and the degrees in detail. Great book.
My aunt and uncle live in Modesto, if you dump a body in the Sacramento River in will end up where he was fishing, also a women testified they saw her walking the dog and police did not get a statement or provide her name in discovery and she died of cancer before the trial, the prosecutors did tons of illegal unethical stuff to Peterson, he did not get a fair trial, that’s the issue
Hell no.
If the killer wanted to frame Scott they would have left Laci on the shore where she could be found not put her in the bay where she might never be found and would require the use and expense of a boat . Not going to happen.
I named my son Connor in honor of the sweet baby boy that never got a chance. I'll never forget following this case while pregnant with my last child
Waste of taxpayer money 💰
Scott is guilty
California is NOT THE PLACE TO BE.
Galifornia now not California
@@markcoleman-z9dCommiefornia as well. 😅
@sunnydaye5942 it is if you're a criminal!!! 🤮💔
The people who want him to get a new trial should be ashamed. Laci's Mom and her family have been through hell and to torment them again is criminal.
That's Galifornia for ya
@@markcoleman-z9dAnd Stupidfornia too, where the victims are the criminals and the criminals victims, lord have mercy! 😢
But OJ is no longer alive to give Scott advice on how to find the “real killer” on golf courses! Poor Scott. He’ll never find the “real killer”
SCOTT IS SOOOOOO GUILTY
Oh I love Matt Murphy!
I love Matt Murphy. Thanks for having him on!!❤ I can't understand why the states are willing to let killers go!? The Menendez brothers and Scott Peterson UGH
That's California for yah
Peterson Will Never Get Out Of Prison!
OMG NO!!!
It’s California what should we expect?!
It's no longer California Now it's Galifornia ABC NEWS just reported that
OMG Really Peterson should rot in jail
This case was in my area. The dude is guilty as sin. CA is crazy with liberal policies.
What was it like living there when this was going on? I followed the case from start to finish 20 plus years ago when I was in college. My mom and I watched Greta every night.
@JoeBravesFan this was a very followed crime. A sad case, especially since she was a beloved teacher. Scott was under suspicion from the get go. As you may know, he was terrible at covering his tracks.
That makes you an expert.
@@urbinverbiest9222 yes, that's exactly what I said. I'm the expert. SMH.
@ oh yes I know it was very followed. I followed it. What I meant was what was it like being in Modesto during all this? You’re from Modesto, right?
The dude is guiltier than sin.
Were you on the jury?
@@petesaria-hf1xhare you from Galifornia
@@petesaria-hf1xhwhat’s your deal?!?
He also says there was overwhelming amount of evidence!! What evidence??? There wasnt one piece of evidence that proved scott was guilty not one single piece.
exactly, the only evidence was that he was screwing another woman, saw her only 4 times, and he lied to her. no evidence that he killed anyone
Reminds me of the Mark Jensen case. Thankfully, he was convicted again. Hope he never gets out!
He should never see the light of day..
The Menendez Case isn't in the same million mile radius as Scott Peterson. Those brothers were brutalized YEARS by a perverted monster. It's an insult to compare the two.
Matt Murphy Rocks! I have a feeling he's going to be Running for Congress. ....hence, his move to the East Coast. If so, Im glad he is.
It's hard to trust a public prosecutor whose main ambition seems to be being on TV.
A small woman who was 8 months pregnant decides to go investigate a robbery?..😂😂
When I was carrying my children, I was afraid to take the stairs without holding on to something.
I'm trying to imagine a scenario which could have turned me into a pregnant crime stopper.
Sounds like a bad comedy. 😂
You act as if you knew her personally, but you don't, her family and friends and anyone that knew her said she has a strong personality and would confront anyone at any time, but you seem to know her better 🤣
@@arrivagabry
What a funny little clown you are....
@@arrivagabry
You need to smarten up mate.
He is ridiculously guilty
Every defendant has a right to a theory of defense - even completely absurd theories. But having a new theory about "what really happened" doesn't mean you get a new trial. This trial concluded years ago and Peterson was found guilty. What is the underlying legal theory the defense attorneys are tossing up to justify a new trial? Are they claiming a Brady violation by the DA or something else?
california is being california again...
Stupidfornia indeed. 👍
None of us has forgotten what was presented in court. It’s that some people choose not to believe it based on what they believe.
Would love to hear Matt Murphy's thoughts and opinions on the Dan Markel murder trials.
“I’m at the Eiffel Tower”….puleeeease
Moi? Pretentious...
Oui en effet, c’est une bonne idée.👍
Scott Peterson is guilty as guilt itself.may he rot in prison forever ❤️
Saying that someone is guilty because he didn't want to talk to the cops shows that dude is NOT objective and is not someone with common sense.
I wouldn't talk to cops either. It's EVERYTHING ELSE that Scott Peterson DID, but especially statements he made to his girlfriend about his wife, like claiming 'his wife had died tragically...' when Laci was still alive! Even his girlfriend was able to do THAT MATH...!!!
@PureMagma that's not proof beyond A reasonable doubt
This clown has no credibility whatsover. !. He can't even pronounce Amber Frey's name correctly and 2. He actually suggested that we go look at Wikipedia regarding this case. What a fool.
@Libertarian123 that's just the tip of the huge iceberg! There was over 1100 items entered into evidence. Do some research. This guy is as guilty as they come.
I Hope he doesn't get it. I truly Believe he is Guilty
obviously MONEY has changed hands here
The bay has 11 species of SHARK. Just MAYBE that is why he went "fishing" 100 miles away from home on Christmas eve.
Huh?
@@hsmd4533The Bay has sharks
Wasn’t this episode shown last fall? The tree outside has green leaves on it.
Scott is guilty…..and should remain in prison.
This is bullshit. There’s only click bait. He’s no more getting a re-trial then I’m gonna drive the Ferrari tonight.
If I could hitch a ride with you to CVS I’d be static, I drive a Pinto, yes a real piece of crapola.
It had been New York he would already be back on the street
Megyn is like Nate Eton from East Idaho news, she lets her guest talk and doesn’t keep interrupting them and telling us what they are saying. Nancy Grace, who seems to be a kind person who advocates for the victims can’t let her guests talk for more than a sentence before she interrupts them.
We have some great journalists and TV anchorpeople in my country and my favourites (60 minutes and Seven Spotlight , ABC and SBS) are the ones who draw the guest out and let the audience hear what they have to say rather than making it all about them. Thanks Megyn
I could never understand how going golfing was way too cold but going fishing was a better idea 🙄 &
placing himself right at the bay . He must have thought the bodies would not float to the surface being weighted down & he would get away with this .
He is obviously not only an idiot but an absolute monster.
Her guest needs to know the difference between the Innocence Project and the LA Innocence Project. How does he not know?! Also, he doesn’t know how to say Amber Frey’s name.
He also wants you to go look at Wikipedia for heavens sake. This guy is a clown.
OJ got out and so did Cosby!!! 🤷♂️
Oh not guilty and Cosby was the prosecution error
Matt Murphy should run for governor in California.
So the “robbers” then went to Scott’s warehouse and made cement body anchors? Suuuuuuuure.
Ha. The robbers were stealing stuff to feed a drug addiction. Meaning they are going to take the time (while feeding their habit) to make anchors, get a boat, drive to the bay, and plant the body a day or two after the police reveal Scott’s alibi. Also too, this was not out in some rural area. It was on a suburban street. Laci would have yelled and McKenzie would’ve barked and someone would have heard it.
not a single cement anchor was found, that was just a theory. you would think they would of found at least one in the bay area after searching with sonar for days, but nothing.
@ yep none found from the bay search, only one from the warehouse. He had a depth finder on his boat, so I think he dumped them in a very very deep part and that bay isn’t clear, so I see why they didn’t find any. At the warehouse they found remnant spots on that wooden platform that looked like more were made. Only way you can explain that is if Scott says he made one and just moved it around to four or five different spots on the platform. He never expected anyone to search there that first night, or ever. I think when his brother in law asked for duct tape to hand missing posters and Scott said he had some at the warehouse, and he was gone for two hours, I think he tried to tidy up a bit, but the police already had some pictures.
I thought Megyn was smarter than this.
Why ?
Matt does not do sarcasm well.
Reminds of my ex from 30 years ago disappeared for a couple of days after an argument. When she came back she said she had been abducted by 3 men who raped, etc, and shot her up with drugs. When I was taking her stuff out of her suitcase, one of her dresses had a Xmas party name tag on it. She went to the hospital and we divorced shortly after
The US government loves wasting tax payers 🙈
His story is total crap!
These stories people roll their eyes about. Regardless of outcome no one cares. Sorry to be so callous.
Young married couple expecting a child at Christmastime but wait we not spending Christmas Eve together???
He is likely guilty, but there is enough reason for a new trial. Evidence was inappropriately left out of the trial that could have swayed a jury. He will likely be found guilty again, but we should follow all the rules of the law.
I agree. Let him have a new trial. It won't change a damn thing and just make him look more guilty😮😮
Quel belle voix que vous avez, madame !
Oui en effet, meilleurs vœux, merci.
I like how he leaves out. That the same juror that committed juror misconduct and had his death penalty overturned is the same juror that found him guilty of murder. Can someone please explain to me how they can overturn one of his sentence due to German misconduct an uphold the other sentence when the same juror Fountain guilty if anyone can please explain this to me I would appreciate it.
First of all, an evidentiary hearing that lasted weeks concluded with the judge's ruling that there was *no juror misconduct*
2nd, the death sentence was overturned due to an error made by the judge during jury selection. It had absolutely nothing to do with Richelle Nice or any other juror.
Should of got a pardon it was only murder
Yea right 🤦♀️
Lacie would be like 50ish her son only 23 years old just starting to live……SP is guilty……he is just where he needs to be and lucky to be there……I think it would be tragic if her lovely mother and family would have to go thru another trial…….what a waste of taxpayers $$$$
I had faith in u to be real u be blessed 🙏🙏🙏
megyn kelly for president 🇺🇸
I like the innocence project an others like it, saves a lot of innocent people, but it sounds like now they have attorneys going after old cases because chances are they have lost evidence, or witnesses are dead, and everything else that comes with time is gone, this is frightening
Love Matt Murphy’s take on the probability of it being someone other than Scott.
You are a good talker pink shirt guy but their is no evidence. Free SP.
"No evidence" 😂😂😂😂😂
Makes me laugh every time 😂
Megyn Kelly said the only smart thing in the whole show. She asked why Laci's body wasn't just tossed into the bay. Of course that's exactly what happened. I kept hoping she would ask the next question, how did Conner's body get to where it was found but she never did. Pity. So close.
Megyn he died from the drugs and his exertion. Don't confuse shows about your husband go to your head. Just read the teleprompter. That talent is worth millions!
whats he got in the barrel in the back of his little boat going off to the san fra😮ncisco harbor
Ben Affleck could play him on TV.
Dean Cain did already. We don't need another movie about this loser.
The comment section is hoooked.
What does that mean in english?
He's guilty as hell itself!
The stacked inferences are so coincidental that the universe must have been conspiring against Scott Peterson. Only in California!
