Scott Peterson Murders Pregnant Laci: ‘I’m an A-hole’ in Bid For New Trial

CRIME Stories with Nancy Grace

After years in prison, Scott Peterson is speaking out for the first time about the murder of his wife, Laci.

In the Peacock network’s “Face To Face with Scott Peterson,” he continues to assert that he did not kill the mother of his unborn child and presents an alternative theory. Peterson suggests that the heavily pregnant Laci may have gone across the street to confront thieves.

Peterson says he expected to be home after court until the verdict was read. Responding to allegations that he killed Laci because he didn’t want to be married, Peterson states, “That’s so offensive, that’s so disgusting. I just don’t get that argument, and it’s absolutely not true.” He admits to regretting his infidelity, acknowledging that he was an “a–hole,” but insists he did not kill his wife.
