Documentary: American Murder: Laci Peterson (Netflix, 2024) PART ONE

Amye and Shabnam recap the 2024 Netflix Documentary American Murder: Laci Peterson On Christmas Eve in 2002, Laci Peterson was reported missing from her home in Modesto, California, while eight months pregnant with her first child. The story dominated the media for months, leading up to the discovery of their remains in the San Francisco Bay. Slowly but surely, law enforcement built a case against her husband, Scott Peterson, and prosecuted him for the brutal murders of Laci Peterson and their unborn son. In 2004, Scott Peterson was convicted on two counts of murder. Now, 20 years after Peterson’s conviction, director Skye Borgman’s three-part documentary series American Murder: Laci Peterson utilizes news clips, interrogation footage, and courtroom cameras to bring the dramatic disappearance, investigation, and trial into focus. The series features interviews with detectives, lawyers, and jurors involved in Peterson’s trial, and also includes a conversation with Amber Frey, the woman with whom Peterson was living a double life at the time of his wife’s disappearance — and whose willingness to participate with law enforcement led to major breakthroughs in the case against him. And, for the first time since Laci’s death, her mother, Sharon Rocha, agreed to an in-depth interview for the series, offering fresh insight into her loss and the grief she carries to this day.
